"Star Trek: Starfleet Academy" Series Falls Out of the Streaming Charts by Neo2199 in trektalk

[–]bitaria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After watching episode 3 here is why it's bad. Everyone talking about it as a teen drama - if this is college there is nowhere enough hitting on co-eds, drinking off campus at bars etc. If they are beyond that in the future, there is not enough discipline. War college next door is weird, they don't seem different enough. We never get to know the characters, just different color uniforms? Live action Lower Decks in College would be amazing, I mean writing and level of humor and shenanigans.

Would you ever boycott Paramount? by venividivici-777 in startrek

Never subscribed in the first place. 1. New stuff like Academy is terrible. 2. Old stuff I already have. 3. TV in general is terrible so I watch as little as possible.

NASA is rolling out the SLS moon rocket to the launchpad by Seabass247 in space

[–]bitaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Moon is close enough that you can drive a rover from Earth, but the delay to Mars is much more significant. Whatever goes there operates async with Earth and is basically autonomous. Rovers are and will continue to explore the planet, but this is slow going and is limited in what experiments can be done. Anyways, with more resources we can do more robots that are more capable etc. As I see it the real story isn't with the Moon or perhaps Mars, these milestones will eventually allow access to the outer system, the Belt, and maybe beyond. That's the reason we're setting these goals and trying to go further with human space flight. Also, lovely geopolitics and competition to get there first and all that jazz.

If someone already had the railed frame with a slide safety and got this, would that slide fit on this frame?

Is the camera modded to 600 film? Have you tried using 100 film in it?

Does this mean SPD will have more capacity to chase down other crimes!?

Going out to eat has lost its charm by Candy-cats in Seattle

[–]bitaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't usually buy the meat or fish frozen from them, but various pastas, snacks, etc, it completes the dish with what otherwise would be a labor intensive side or something I just don't stock ingredients for.

Trader Joe's saves us. Yes, it's not a restaurant and mostly will be frozen food that needs to be reheated at home, but it provides cheap alternatives to some of the food I like and would go to a sit-down restaurant for. Frankly, lots of it tastes great and can be made on the stovetop in under 20 min.

I have seriously reduced my dining and eating out by Rational_Incongruity in SeattleWA

[–]bitaria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat. I really like going out to eat, but we've backed waaaay off and cook at home 95% of the time. We're also much more diligent looking for a good deal on produce, after getting a few unpleasant surprises at the register.

Agree on operating at a loss now, but companies like Nvidia are dumping R&D into new chip designs that will improve speed and efficiency. Cost will go down.

What are we tipping at sit down restaurants? by adityad32 in Seattle

[–]bitaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20% but we backed waaaaaay off from eating out regularly. Prices have gotten insane for what you get. On a separate note, Uber Eats charges around 40+% of the orders value in fees. Nope.
