I just thought “pirate-friendly” was concise.

Chakotay once used the TPD as an excuse to not answer a question from Janeway.

And she just accepted it.

Right? It’s obviously an orchard, not a forest, and obviously the apples are one of the popular commercial cultivars rather than some wild natural variant.

It’s an extraordinary example of Hodgkin’s Law of parallel planetary development that the Ferengi symbol for “bars of gold pressed latinum” is also the ancient Earth dollar sign.

That’s kind of the point.

Clementine originally forked from Amarok 1.4 because Amarok 2.0 changed too much.

The spork is the cement of our civilization, with which we escape from hunger, using IFIC as our guide: Infinite foods in infinite combinations.

Well, obviously it’s not meant to be taken literally; it refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.

It’s all a little too convenient, if know what I mean.

Why do the cables ONLY vibrate between these two poles? (youtu.be)

I’ve seen this phenomenon many times over the years, while walking the dog out behind our house. The cables wiggle between these two particular power poles, but NOT between the adjacent poles (or any others, along this pole line). There is no wind, no earthquakes, no herds of animals or large vehicles/machinery anywhere nearby...

Perhaps that section is exactly centered between two different sources of vibration, so the vibrations meet and amplify at that point?

    Be honest, would you prefer an android slave that was programmed by a paragon of virtue, or one that was programmed by that unprincipled, evil-minded, lecherous kulak Harry Mudd?

    For the unfamiliar: As the head of Desilu Productions, she was the one responsible for giving TOS a second pilot.

    It’s not for your personal privacy, or to spare you personal embarrassment. But rather because large-scale demographic data collection is dangerous.

    The Nazis used such collections to locate Jews. America used such collections to locate Japanese-Americans. The Rwanda genocide was facilitated by tribal affiliation being printed on ID cards. In none of these cases were the data collected for the nefarious purposes it was eventually used for.

    Information is a form of knowledge, knowledge is power, and power in the wrong hands is dangerous.

    Every time I see this it’s a small group within a larger capitalist society. So of course the results are beneficial to the recipients; it’s not really proving anything in that respect.

    The problem as I see it is how to make it work as its own self-sustaining economic system.
