So weird, we just watched this episode the other night. The episode is a bit of a stretch in the sense that they’ve had space travel for a thousand years and something like this has never come up? In our society, we have laws that cover pretty much everything, surely there would be established precedence and nobody (except for Trip) would be confused about the consequences. I imagine, in reality, ‘euthanizing’ them would be an option.

I remember before moving to Charleston and thinking everywhere sucks. But it turns out that it’s just the rest of SC that sucks, Charleston is fine. www.reddit.com/r/southca…
We put this on for movie night last night, and while I ended up engrossed in work, my SO tells me we should re-watch the first half (where we stopped) as she feels it’s strong work and would interest me. Will eventually follow up with my thoughts! www.reddit.com/r/fanedit…
It’s hard to say. Personally, I think the Roddenberry formula was paramount to getting the feel of Star Trek right, but I think Trek is at its best when it’s a bit more self-aware. DS9 is probably my favorite series in all, but that’s because it took tropes defined in TNG (which is a seminal TV series, generally, to my mind) and tested them on a regular basis. I find that kind of departure very compelling.

This is a core feature, but you can go to the fallback mode. Logout, and then in the corner there’s an option to choose your environment, you can select gnome classic and use that instead. www.reddit.com/r/gnome/c…
It would have sounded better if they left the price off of it, $35,000 doesn’t exactly get you gold plated rims www.reddit.com/r/AOC/com…
I bought a few game genies today and wanted a way to look up codes on my phone without it becoming a giant pain. Glad you guys like it! www.reddit.com/r/retroga…
This is actually a brilliant idea, if we can get Star Trek: House kicked off that would make up for a lot in the world www.reddit.com/r/DeepSpa…
I just can’t see where the GNOME guys could have possibly drawn inspiration for 40. www.reddit.com/r/unixpor…
They could at least post the whole meme, the ones where they start it to just get you to click in and then just abandon the joke are bordering unethical www.reddit.com/r/beta/co…
Oh the GNOME 1.x days, nobody today was alive to witness it www.reddit.com/r/gnome/c…
I can understand the maintainer’s point, it seems like in essence, people want drag-and-drop positioning, which is a complexity I wouldn’t want to add either. Personally, having dabbled in some light extension-making recently, couldn’t find a way to set extension load-order or set one extension as depending on another, both of which seem to be basic features they need to add. Either of which could speak towards an answer to the basic problem of ‘things keep loading in random order’ which is kind of annoying.

The Botton Activities Trigger Extension handles this well, it should be default behavior www.reddit.com/r/linux/c…
The i5 model is a better machine today than when I bought it like two years ago. Other than an iPad, I’m still not sure if there’s anything better on the market. I haven’t really used it for work, but I’ve played with Crostini enough to know that I could if I needed to. www.reddit.com/r/chromeo…
Yeah this is the default behavior, would like to disable it myself www.reddit.com/r/chromeo…
My thoughts here are that this is an interesting example of cognitive dissonance. I guess the core issue isn’t if we agree the lunatic shouldn’t have a gun, but rather the philosophical question as to _if_ an authority is qualified to make that decision. I wonder how far this goes, if Libertarians believe that the state shouldn’t regulate guns whatsoever, should the state allow them inside prisons? Should violent ex-cons get their gun rights back with their freedom?

I was able to get my first vaccine, had to drive across the state to get it but I’m very glad they have it together for this leg of the race www.reddit.com/r/southca…
I’d say your response should be somewhere between standing up for yourself, and dismissive of their point. I wouldn’t go into a big speech, but I would probably tell them to mind their own business then and that you don’t take your emotional cues from their insults. www.reddit.com/r/AskRedd…
I’ve been playing the 25th Aniversary Edition and it’s been great. Not as easy as Earthbound Beginnings (which I didn’t beat or anything), and the English translation seems good so far https://motherforever.net/mother-25th-anniversary/ www.reddit.com/r/earthbo…
I’m running neon now, have been for about six months, it’s been good to me no real issues to note. www.reddit.com/r/kde/com…
