One of my absolute FAVORITE out of context Trek quotes comes from this episode. “Get the cheese to sick bay, the doctor should look at it as soon as possible.” but I usualy shorten it to just “Get the cheese to sick bay!”.

It was a 3/4 size model, wasn’t it? Surely they could tow it on a trailer?

Edit: from wikipedia

Art director Matt Jefferies originally envisioned a sleek, streamlined shuttle based upon his background as a pilot. The curved shape proved too expensive to build for the first episodes.[3] AMT offered to build a full-sized shuttlecraft at no cost in exchange for rights to market a model kit. The final design of the mockup, by Gene Winfield,[4] is 24 feet (7.2 m) long and weighs one ton, has a plywood hull, and was built in two months by a team of 12 people. A separate set was used for interior scenes as the mockup was too small for filming.[5]

That game came out when I happened to be really into the PBS Space Time series and I was learning as much as my brain could comprehend about general vs special relativity; which is all I can say without spoiling the game lol. So even if I could forget all of the story I don’t think it would have quite the same impact. It would still be something magic though I’m sure. I still enjoy watching others experience the game for the first time too.

I went back and tried to play the DLC and even that just wasn’t the same. I want to play them both blind.

payment processing isn’t handled by individual websites. You can see this one is powered by Square (that mobile pay company with the little white pucks you could slide into your headphone jack back in the day)

A fellow cartoon connoisseur I see!

I saw that. If you go into about:config and diisable literally everything that has ‘ml’ in the name you can turn this bs off. One day i’ll switch browsers D= Also it’s really funny to me that publicly all these companies are shouting “AI!” but the engineers seem to know it’s really just machine learning.

edit There are also some *.ml strings you can just straight up delete.

cannibalistic spiders?

If spiders are in your house, then something for them to eat is in your house too.

I only powered through so I could enjoy being blue-balled by Seven in the very last scene.

look at it from the pessimist’s point of view, they could have killed side loading too!

Outer Wilds. Unfortunately I can’t elaborate without spoiling it.

That nvme drive just hanging out next to the power cord is giving me a type of anxiety I never knew I had, thanks.

A smallish (6U) rack mount that you can bolt into the wall. Even if they rip it down it’ll weigh a ton and have locked doors (with ventilation obvi).

OP already acknowledged in their edit that logging in with a local IP ‘fixed’ the issue.

This picture is so frustrating. There’s no apparent source for the “live” wire. But if you tried following this with your real wiring (white, black and green do exist), you would be connecting your hot, neutral and ground lines all together. I doubt it would kill you at 120 V but it would definitely trip your breaker the moment you plug it in, and almost certainly make some nice big arcs.

Fuck, thanks for posting that. I’m usually happy to be wrong about something but this sucks.

That’s pretty fucked up. I’d be shootin off some angry emails to customer support. Sorry to hear that!
