That’s a good punch-up. I’m in!

Even with that, the scariest part of the Borg originally was that they were just this undifferentiated swarm.
I hear you, too many are SUVs or “crossovers” (still “light trucks” for the purposes of scamming gov’t regulations) as well.
But I’m pretty happy with my Leaf. 🤷
Somebody is really pushing an anti-EV narrative.
SNW is so good I’d sooner toss TOS if forced to choose (which I’m not). The musical episode is vastly better than Turnabout: Intruder.
Right out of Carmageddon
When I want smaller than my ⚡🚗🍃 Leaf, I ride my ⚡🏍️ Metacycle or my ⚡🛵 niu N-GT.
The Leaf is a reasonable size, the Ioniq 6 as well I think.
Feels like a pretense to discourage protests.
Touché. Hit a nerve, I guess.
I’m pretty sure they only care about their performative solipsism.
Windows 10 keeps turning that stupid news feed back on on my taskbar, too.
I work in finance, and the only time I use office is when my coworkers infrequently send me something locked in an Office document. Plenty of non-technical coworkers are addicted to it, but there’s no need, because it’s awful.
The Office programs are an ancient, bloated mess with an impossibly convoluted UI that to one uses more than a small share of.
The styles in Word and PowerPoint are never consistent: the bullets in lists never really match, fonts change randomly without reason, &c. These are intelligent people who have used this garbage for actual decades, and the WYSIWYG lie just results in a sloppy mess.
Even Microsoft wants everyone to stop using the desktop versions, and rent it from the cloud, which can be done from any OS.
For years, there was progress in moving governments away from implicitly endorsing Microsoft, and toward the simpler (but often still overcomplicated) OpenOffice/LibreOffice formats, and Microsoft engaged in some pretty shady behavior to stop it.
Markdown is better for documents, or maybe HTML, or LaTeX via LyX or something. Databases and legitimate file formats are better for data, with scripts for formulas. There are many simple alternatives around, but the addiction is so automatic and insidious, I can’t tell you how often over twenty years I’ve gotten screenshots pasted into an empty Word document rather than just sending the image.
Zero is freezing
10 is not
20 is pleasing
30 is hot
40 frying
50 dying
It’s true, but Idaho, especially the northern Idaho panhandle, is particularly bad. There’s a history of white supremacy, with the Aryan Nations compound that was located there, apparently funded in part by Sea Monkeys. Allie Brosh mentions living near them in one of her books.

True, but two copies is one, and one is none. Multiple backups are critical, especially as archive.org has been targeted by the last few book publishers, who want it gone. As politicians and news sites quietly modify their content and hope nobody notices, this should really be a service of the Library of Congress, too.
Weird that we’re still doing “heiress”, after abandoning “aviatrix”, “actress”, &c.
I did not attend the funeral, but I approved of it.
Sometimes science intersects with fiction, sometimes it intersects with politics.
It’s banning porn.
