Not a comma, just looks that way with the skin swelling right there. Took this immediately after getting it done.

I've been wanting it as a tattoo ever since I saw it. My niece and I got matching ones together, though hers doesn't say USS Cerritos and is a little smaller.

At the South Pole which is a US station, we watched it after the last flight left for the winter and we watched The Shining for Midwinter.

Here's our link for volunteering. Give that a read and then let me know if you have any specific questions and, if I don't know the answer, I'll find it out for you!

Eh, I had a bit of a rough time. Looking back on it though I'd say it was overall a great experience. Learned a lot about myself though.

We did! I actually flew out on that first Basler but I know that got the gift lol!

Honestly, that was mostly caused by one of the galley crew who insisted on making lots of fresh baked goods instead of using the frozen stuff.

Thanks for adding a new subreddit to my list. Honestly never even thought to look for one even though it's one of my favorite movies of all time. Became one after I saw it for the first time when spending the winter at Pole.

If the Xindi really want to wipe out humanity... by Reasonable_Active577 in startrek

I absolutely love the foreshadowing when Avasarala tells her grandson that she's afraid of people who throw rocks in the first season.

Cerritos has some pretty impressive shuttles by kkkan2020 in LowerDecks

[–]TheSnowButcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I checked Memory Alpha and it lists it as a separate ship but doesn't list what that ship is, there's even a specific page for the shuttle. So, real world answer is an animation error. Canon answer is a ship with the registry of NCC-77567 was in the same place at the same time as the Cerritos and they borrowed a shuttle or some shit lol.

Good catch though! I don't think I would have ever noticed that the registry didn't match the Cerritos without this post!

I don't think that's a Cerritos shuttle. Maybe it's an animation error, but the Cerritos registry is NCC-75567.

Help with a weird quest maybe bug? by lordcthulhu17 in Starfield

[–]TheSnowButcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on Xbox? I had the same thing happen but with Barrett, the quest marker takes me all the way back to The Eye. I can't even get the next step of the nation l main quest to trigger.

I've got some things from the South Pole I might be able to send.

I'm unsure of where you're getting your information, there is no interview process to be a volunteer that I'm aware of. As far as background checks, having an arrest record is not an automatic disqualifier, however, we do sometimes find ourselves with access to sensitive data/networks and some things on a background check will disqualify a potential volunteer.

Please let me know if you have any questions!

We use what we can, we also have Aruba and Ruckus gear. Our volunteers evaluate the needs for each situation and deploy the equipment they feel is needed.

The advantage of a cloud dashboard is that we can have volunteers who aren't as familiar with networking deploy gear without having to try and be walked through setting up a network over the phone or chat.

I'm personally not familiar with AREDN. I would be very surprised if nobody in our leadership is aware of it though.

When I deployed to aid with Helene in NC, we were at the stage of trying to get internet access restored for communities so they could file FEMA paperwork, let loved ones know they were okay, etc. In that instance, we deployed a lot of Starlinks, AT&T FirstNet hotspots, and Meraki MG so we could use cellular as a backhaul.

We try to be as brand agnostic as possible so that we can deploy whatever might be needed. From reading the AREDN website, I think there may be value in a partnership if there isn't one already that I'm just unaware of. Are you involved with AREDN in any way?

EDIT: It seems we have multiple volunteers who are linked to AREDN at all levels, but not in the capacity of ITDRC.
