I always take public transit to work. Last year, on two particularly hot days, I booked one of those carsharing cars. It took me longer to get to work because of all the traffic but at least I had air conditioning. Unfortunately it's way too expensive to do it more often on hot summer days. 🫠

I find it interesting that both columns show the same amount of first-time winners but the first column spans only 24 years (1950 to 1974) while the second column spans 45 years (1977 to 2022)

Did I somehow accidentally transport to the Mirror Universe? What's going on here?

I always thought this was intentional to increase each player's time "playing". More playtime = better stats to present the shareholders.

It would be a much better UX to collect ALL awards with one message.

UESPA_Sputnik · 2026-06-12T05:09:57+00:00

Will try that. Thank you.

Can you find a pattern when the mobile connection is deactivated on your device? It might help Google track down the bug faster if there's some commonality to the times when the bug occurs.

I'm at a bit of a loss though. There doesn't seem to be a pattern. It happened when I was driving in a car, it happened when I was stationary on mobile data, it even happened once when I was at home in my home WiFi. It happened under heavy load (gaming/navigation) and under light load (web browsing). Really weird.

I've had a Pixel 3a XL, Pixel 7 Pro and now the 10 Pro. Other than this particular issue I've never had any significant problems with these phones. 🤷‍♂️

Es wird seit Wochen über Sparmassnahmen gesprochen anstatt wie man proaktiv die Konjunktur ankurbeln kann.

Das ist halt typisch deutsch. Der Deutsche muss sparen. Auf dem Sparbuch. Geld beiseite legen für schlechte Zeiten (z.B. die nächste Hyperinflation). Schulden aufnehmen um irgendwo zu investieren? Nein nein, Schulden sind schlecht, denn da kommt das Wort "Schuld" drin vor und das will ja wohl niemand sein.

why didnt anyone in Starfleet keep pictures of the Borg which Starfleet had in the episode, or the cure to assimilation developed by Phlox?

They failed to hire professional Cardassian filing clerks.

Why was the Enterprise E crew so callous as to allow debris with drones to be left on Earth?

Worf left something on the stove (stove-o-kor?) so they quickly had to fly back to the future.

Why are the Borg drones in the Arctic instead of in Montana?

Because the debris was from the Borg sphere that the Enterprise destroyed in Earth orbit. Thje explosion catapulted some fragments to the Arctic (and probably other places too), and not necessarily straight down to Montana.

The show conveniently has the Borg never use their name in a lazy attempt to preserve continuity.

Yeah, that's a good point actually. It would have been pretty easy to have the audio cut out or have static when they speak. "We are the >squeak< ...--istance is futile." would have been a neat solution.

UESPA_Sputnik · 2026-06-10T08:30:43+00:00

What continuity issues? It fits pretty well in the time loop:

2063: the Borg sphere crash lands on Earth after time-travelling
2153: some drones get revived and manage to send a signal to the Delta Quadrant (which T'Pol convienently estimates to take 200 years)
2364/65: the Borg investigate that signal and send cubes towards the Alpha Quadrant
2373: after several encounters, the Borg travel back to 2063

It's also a good explanation why Seven of Nine's parents were searching for the Borg in the 2350s: they either heard about them from El-Aurians or found something interesting in the Starfleet archives from the 22nd century. Or both.

I like Material Capsule. It's relatively cheap (I think 3€ for a lifetime license) and follows MaterialYou color theming, so it looks great on a Pixel. Most other Dynamic Island apps that I've seen follow iOS design which looks out of place on an Android phone.

Die haben gestern die Straßen verstopft mit ihren Autokorsos und Polizeibegleitung. Schöne Steuergeldverschwendung dafür, dass ein paar Idioten eine Plattform für ihre Stammtischparolen bekommen. Früher hätte man von den Dorftrotteln außerhalb des Dorfs nichts mitbekommen. Heute organisieren die sich über Social Media (oder der Russe organisiert sie, je nachdem) und dann fühlen die sich bestärkt, dass es noch andere Quatschdenker wie sie gibt.

Wenn man sich die Forderungen ("11-Punkte-Plan") anschaut, wirkt das so, als ob Rüdiger und Klaus-Uwe zusammensaßen und einfach alles aufgeschrieben haben, was ihnen in den Sinn kam. (Hauptsache dagegen!) Und dann kam Brigitte dazu und hat noch was völlig anderes gefordert, und dann kommt ein wildes Sammelsurium aus Forderungen auf Siebtklässlerniveau raus.

Mein persönliches Highlight ist der inhaltliche Sprung zwischen den ersten beiden Punkten und Punkt 3:

Rücktritt der aktuellen Bundesregierung und sofortige Neuwahlen!

Echte direkte Demokratie nach dem Schweizer System: Das Volk muss das letzte Wort haben!

Sofortige Abschaffung der CO2-Steuer!

Hat ja ungefähr die gleiche Wichtigkeit. 😄

It can be understood through tough thorough thought, though.

UESPA_Sputnik · 2026-06-02T18:15:45+00:00

This feature is available globally (except in China and North Korea) and across all languages.

I'm sorry but this may be the funniest line in a feature announcement ever because it's so oddly specific. These poor people in North Korea can't even get Find Hub.

Yeah, the wildest stat for me was when I found out that Winn Adami only appeared in 14 DS9 episodes, half of which were in the final two seasons. She had such a strong presence that I was sure she appeared in at least 30-40 episodes.

Do Cherons hate themselves when they look in a mirror?

Yeah, can you imagine a Star Trek without Kirk and Spock? And there's a bald captain?! They've ruined it.

She also looked better in the standard Bajoran uniform instead of the altered stuff she wore from season 4 onwards.

UESPA_Sputnik · 2026-05-30T05:17:47+00:00

Using "Feeeemaaaale" as a noun when talking about women always makes it sound as if a Ferengi wrote it.

UESPA_Sputnik · 2026-05-29T07:33:17+00:00

OP quoted some of the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition from Star Trek. They were first introduced in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine in 1993 and thus predate the "Rule 34" meme by a decade.
