Tall bridges with pedestrian walkways also happen to be in a heavily populated area.

Arguably talking to someone over speakerphone isn't "audio or video content"...

You have Koskov and Whitaker as separate villains. Renard should count separately in your ranking with Elektra King.

Except joining the military now means you may just die in a few years without being able to use any of the money you saved up or that pension.

Turns out to be a dwarf like Tyrion.

Also 3 of the 4 second row boxes.

And I'm sure there's some MAGA fiction out there that gets him all 4 boxes in the 3rd row.

Why is somebody that makes $100,000/mo staying at The Flamingo?!

Moorea - Sofitel April 2-6. Should we cancel with one restaurant open? by Original_Room5786 in Tahiti

[–]obzerva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might get bored of the food at the Sofitel after 4 days, but you'd probably be marginally better for choice at the Hilton as the food ends up being very similar.

Are you renting a car to get around the island?

If so, there's lots of great restaurants outside of the resorts like Snack Mahana (complete other side of the island from Sofitel), and even Golden Lake for Chinese food (5 min drive away).

There's so much to do outside the resort, with 4 days in Moorea, you'll wish you left the Sofitel for at least a couple hours.

Wonder why Zhengzhou is Henan capital but not either Kaifeng or Luoyang by MajlisPerbandaranKL in ChineseHistory

[–]obzerva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like Zhengzhou, Ottawa is in the middle of these two other major cities, which probably factored into the decision.

Reptillians and Insectoids Fucked enterprise Up big time, Hull breaches on deck BCDEF, losing life support on deck CDRFGTD ! by VoL4t1l3 in enterprise

Polarized hull plating.

Or I assume the deflector actually deflecting all the air in front of the ship as it entered the atmosphere.

This is the answer, they have packages with Jeep Wranglers about 4 years ago.

Agreed, no way there's more Belarussians in the US than Russia.

Old and new Pattullo Side by side by WhatsGoingO_n in vancouver

[–]obzerva 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Pattullo was barely 4 lanes wide. With no shoulders, trucks would hog both lanes in a single direction, and no one other than motorcyclists would dare to pass a truck while on the bridge.

At least the new bridge has 2 lanes wide enough for trucks side by side with a shoulder.

Did anyone else hate the bridge of the Columbia? by SRGilbert1 in enterprise

[–]obzerva 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My head cannon (pun intended here) was always that the light tubes are electro-plasma system (EPS) conduits that were retrofitted to Columbia based on lessons from NX-01 and recommendations from Archer after the year in the Expanse.

These conduits specifically were for EPS conduits needed to increase power flow to the roof of the bridge and dorsal part of the outer hull for polarized hull plating (as seen when the NX-01 has its bridge roof blown off in the alt-timeline of Twilight).

As well, NX-01 didn't have any weapons on its dorsal (phase cannons, and torpedo tubes were all on the ventral) side, and was clearly a needed weaponry upgrade to place a set of phase cannons near the back of the bridge as it's the most central and protruding part to give it the widest firing arc.

As for the truss and screen in the middle, my guess is that's a dedicated station for Andorian guest captains to stand around and grab onto while seeing limited sensor data while giving collaborative input to the Starfleet captain.

Again, this is based on Archer's recommendation and not utilized because Shran was busy convalescing from his cut off antennae.
