They were part of the ship’s frame of reference. This applies to standard physics but is explicitly true if there’s a warp bubble around the ship.

Now who can argue with that? I think we’re all indebted to TheFerrango for clearly stating what needed to be said. I’m particulary glad that these lovely children were here today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic Star Trek technobabble, it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age.

Yeah. Commits going right to prod makes my skin crawl.

Took me a while to track it down, but I think this is the book to which you were referring.

I make no cleans about the stances of this artist; I just saw this strip years ago.

Alan Tudyk would have been a good Stamets, but Anthony Rapp has been perfection.

And in strange memory caches, even death may die.

The dominance is in service to private profits. They keep telling about “America and it’s interests” where the “interests” involved are profits.

Time for testing then 😊

Is there an option for being Evil Overlord List compliant?

Let’s not put Descartes before the horse.

The left wing of the right wing. Sounds right.

Seriously, has anyone heard of (for example) Alan Turing? That’s a famous case of how the West treats queer people, and that’s the snowflake on top of the tip of the iceberg.

Which is why Warhamster is a yellow flag for me. Media literate friends of mine enjoy it for the deconstruction of fascism it is. Most people didn’t have that kind of media literacy and they’re easy pickings.

And of course the image they use is Joseph Smith 🤣

Ohhh, that touched a deep well of hatred. My first engineering job was full stack and we had a highly modified Bootstrap front end. I’d build the thing they wanted, and the designers would get looped in for QA and insist that various pieces had to look like their little wireframe down to the pixel. I mean look, it’s easy right?

I asked why they are insisting on constantly going against the standards that had been adopted company-wide. Did it stop? Why no! Did I get a suit down with my boss? Why yes!

He is/was a cool guy and saw my perspective but also gave me precious advice on how to survive.

Pfft 😂

Roko’s basilisk is The Game for futurists.

Here you go, enjoy. You win!

Ozai, son of Azulon, father to Zuko and Azula, the Fire Lord

His best known role is as a living weapon of religious zealots intended to take out a brutal dictator. This was shown as having no real effect because the material conditions weren’t really changed so the people kept having to fight, sacrifice, and die.

His second most famous role was as a dangerously unhinged sadistic nihilist that canonically enjoyed the back and forth with his opponent.

His third most famous role was as the same kind of dictator that his first role would oppose. One that showed no qualms over killing anyone (kin included) in pursuit of power.

Just sayin’: Not only should we attribute the features of characters to their actors, but even if that were wise, I don’t think he’s the guy.
