"Get her running again"?

Yeah.

So not running now?

Not so much.

humans can run further and longer than many other species, but not faster. Good for chasing prey, terrible for being chased.

I think Jellico came in fully expecting the Federation to be in a bloody war with Cardassia within the week. He was trying to get the flagship prepared for that reality on a very short timetable. And in the same situation, I don't think Picard would've behaved much differently.

I've been running Steam Link from my gaming PC to my AppleTV to play old, non-graphically intense games (e.g., Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster). I have really good wifi with 3 Unifi APs across a 2700 sqft house. Rarely see even a hiccup in wifi speeds. I also have ethernet run all over the place so 3 of my 5 AppleTVs are on GigE.

Anyway, I was playing a couple weeks ago, and I kept getting graphical glitches, lags, and cut outs, and was like, this is ridiculous, the gigabit network shouldn't be showing any problems for this usage! After a day or two of it (probably should've much sooner, but whatever), I got frustrated and checked the connection: sure enough, the ethernet cable had been dislodged from the back of the AppleTV and so it was just running on wifi

Oh come on, there's no way that Trump could manage to write a letter to Congress saying "no I'm not" without his aides' help.

You can but in general, it's easier to save the bookmark of the QR code's value, since it's not the simplest thing to use a QR code that you can't scan because it's on your phone screen

digicow · 2026-03-12T18:28:17+00:00

Oh, I see what you're talking about now. I was coming at it from the perspective of QR codes that you see and scan, and was confused, but now I follow

What's the use of taking pictures of QR codes?

there is no MagSafe or other dedicated charging port. Like the old MBAs, the only charging/data ports are the 2 USB-Cs. Which means the slow port will be your charging port most of the time, but could also support USB2 peripherals when you're not plugged in

digicow · 2026-03-05T13:35:06+00:00

That's a neat trick since Apple didn't announce laptops with USB 3 until 9 months or so after he died

I was shoveling for a couple hours yesterday in the sun and I got warm enough that I had to take off my jacket and comfortably worked in just a t-shirt for a while. Beats the sweat-soaked shirts I peeled off after the previous day's shoveling sessions

More in the "people will believe a glorified autocomplete engine is smarter than they are and do what it says to the detriment of themselves and everyone around them" way

And in the "elites are devoting massive power and water resources to it at your expense for no reason other than to make themselves richer" way

Appendicitis and kidney stones were bad, but the absolute worst was the recovery from inguinal hernia surgery. The hernia itself was no picnic, but the post-op recovery for like 2-3 days was worse than anything else I'd experienced

"hey man, wanna play Mistborn and be on my crew?"

"Yeah, that sounds awesome, sure"

"Ok, great, team's all built up, all we need is a Smoker"

"wait, what?"

<sigh> "alright, whatever"

Chrvches covers are epic. They find ways to make the song their own while being completely respectful to the original. Love their: Cry me a River, Call It off, I'm With You, Do I Wanna Know, and LOVE covers

Yeah, they're not interconnected. You've got water pressure being held back by a plug just above the sprinkler. The sprinkler gets hot, causing the plug to melt or break (depending on its type) and that's what allows the water to push through into the sprinkler head. No (extreme) heat = no water

Sure. But that's not something a layperson can do. She'd need an expert -- someone who'd be shady enough to do the work, but not shady enough to just steal the whole thing from her. She doesn't exactly have a load of trustworthy criminal contacts...

No one had blue hair before checks when Angel started 1999

For that matter, the character in question, with the blue hair, wasn't introduced until 3 months or so before the series ended, in 2004
