The U.S. Supreme Court agreed on Friday to hear a case out of Southern Oregon that could make sweeping policy changes to the way cities address homelessness and enforce rules around public camping....
My limited understanding of the topic is that ‘cruel but usual’ and ‘unusual but not cruel’ can invalidate the charge. And unfortunately, the mistreatment of the homeless could be seen as usual.
We had been waiting at 0.18.5 for a while because 0.19 came with some federation bugs (and obviously it would be extremely embarrassing if this instance had issues in that department)....
I had a difficult time figuring out how to read the post on the website. Clicking the link itself just gave me an errror. I had to discover what that innocuous “+” was for to expand and read.
I recommend editing this post’s title to include the TL;DR.

Chickens are semi-cannibalistic, and if their eggs are broken, they will eat them.
Or at least I assume this bit of trivia is what Larson is after. Sometimes we think he’s playing 4D chess when he’s a few X’s short of a tic-tac-toe. (And the reverse as well)

Hydroelectric production has dropped by about six percent since last year, causing it to slip from 6.1 percent to 5.8 percent of the total production. Depending on the next couple of months, that may allow solar to pass hydro on the list of renewables.
That’s a little disappointing. Hydro seems to always be forgotten amongst renewable sources. Granted, it’s the most location specific of the renewables, but still.

In Prodigy’s defense, they waited the equivalent of two seasons to play that card, and the execution was IMO, better than what we saw in Picard and Discovery.
The narrative problem with the kids arriving in Federation territory in a stolen ship was that the Protostar would be impounded and the kids would be sent packing.
They needed a narrative reason to give the kids a chance to command the Protostar and have their own adventures, which means dragging out returning it to Starfleet. But rather than resorting to stalling tactics, they opted to have the kids fight to keep it out of their hands, and for good reason.
With Picard and Discovery, I felt more like that trope was used because the writers had no better ideas on how to keep the stakes high.
With Prodigy, I felt that the stakes were made essential to its premise.
So, I just got my copy of the Lower Deck’s Handbook (it’s AMAZING) but one of the sections of the handbook goes into the legacy of the ships to carry the name Cerritos. (Think along the terms of the ships to carry the name Stargazer) and one in particular caught my eye…...
T’Lyn thinks it may be the result of a temporal wake, while Boimler thinks this should be brought to the attention of the Department of Temporal Investigations.
The article implies the self driving feature may be a significant contributor.
Considering relatively few other brands have similar autonomous driving, and that autonomous driving technology is still very much in its infancy I’d wager just having a classification of accident currently unique to Tessla is enough to put it in the lead.
