Sadly never came up.

I generally dislike editorialized headlines (when used as post titles) but this is the exception. Nicely played.

I noticed that, too. I think it’s just the lighting, color balance (it’s got a heavy yellow tint), and the sharp focus only on Briones’s face that’s making it look off. Pretty sure it looked the same in the episode.

Or maybe Briones wasn’t available to shoot that scene and they filmed it with a body double and added her face on in post? I don’t think I’ve read that, but it wouldn’t be unheard of.

Lol, I was gonna say:

If you’re Worf, “Whil Whheaton” is also acceptable.

(Just paying this forward from the last time I made this mistake and someone had to correct me)

Wil Wheaton.

That’s actually closer to real poor than I thought, but I know people who live comfortably on way less. Guess he’s just gonna have to give up the avocado toast until he pulls himself up by his bootstraps.

I’m largely guessing here, but I’d venture he’s just “rich person broke” which is still wealthier than most people will ever be. Again, just a guess.

This piece of shit will appeal all the way to our corrupt SCOTUS and get this nullified. I hate this timeline.

Probably, but that is yet to happen. Until then, join me in just reveling in the headline for a while.

Damn it, Seven, those were my cheesecakes in the mess hall fridge. They even said “Janeway” on the side.

Not sure about Android, but on iOS, when one scans a QR code it shows the web address on the screen that the user then taps on. For the average user, I doubt that they are going to question what the URL is before following through to the website.

Android does the same. The problem is most of those QR codes are encoded short links which tells you nothing about where they’re taking you.

https://short.link/au1034gha could take you to a PDF on the restaurant’s Wordpress site or it could take you to malware or somewhere else you really don’t want to go.

In that case, I blame the people generating the codes for using URL shorteners. My org uses them in flyers for the public, and I always have to chastise them and re-create the QR codes because they run the URL to our website through bit [dot] ly. 😡

I used to work with a guy who was a dead ringer for Bill Bailey both in appearance and personality.

Weird. Other than how it used to choke when there were conflicts (and all uploads stopped until that was fixed) I haven’t had any issues like that. Guess I’m just lucky.

I’ve had pretty good experience with Nextcloud’s instant upload. The only time I’ve had it shit the bed was ages ago when it would occasionally get stuck on a conflict, but that hasn’t happened in a long time. Pretty much all of my image folders (camera/DCIM, Screenshots, Downloads) get synced. The only annoying thing was when apps would suddenly change where they download to and I’d have to reconfigure yet another sync folder, but I can’t really fault NC for that.

Mine is set to upload and keep a local copy and only do a one way sync (phone to NC). Not sure if that causes less issues than a 2 way sync or deleting the local copy after upload?

Hard to say. I’m not sure of the delivery radius that’s allowed here and whether rural food deserts would even be eligible or not. I was just mentioning that ordering (non-perishable) groceries online and having them shipped does have a legit and unfortunate use case.

Back when I lived 45 miles minutes from the closest grocery store, I’d order my non-perishables online and they’d usually come via UPS or FedEx.

This isn’t really the demographic they’re catering to but Food Deserts are a sad reality for many in the US. Being able to order staple food and have them delivered (even if it’s not same day) is often less painful than driving 30-50 miles to the closest grocery store.

You are more than welcome to come and harvest them from my lawn / garden lol. Just be sure to take the roots with you too.

Jesus Christ!

Wow. Knowing those people think like this and seeing it in a picture are like…totally different things.

You mean like how would the people native to the timeline know it was tampered with?

Unless they’re El Aurian, a Borg Queen (or any species with trans-temporal awareness) or otherwise insulated from time like the Krenem time ship, then they probably wouldn’t.

Yep. I think the actual episode name is “Blue Harvest” or at least that’s what I put in the post thinking it was called.
