It’s not even an assumption at that point. You have evidence for your claim.
- Comment on Red, White and Blue 2 days ago:
You’re correct
Contrary to an urban legend, the flag code does not state that a flag that touches the ground should be burned. Instead, the flag should be moved so it is not touching the ground.
I guess just if it gets tattered you’re supposed to dispose of it properly.
- Comment on Red, White and Blue 2 days ago:
Exactly. That’s kind of the difference between being patriotic and nationalistic.
- Comment on Red, White and Blue 2 days ago:
The burning after it touches the ground is actually what you’re supposed to do according to the flag code.
- Comment on Red, White and Blue 2 days ago:
Flag burning isn’t against the flag code. Flexing your 1st amendment is definitely patriotic.
- Comment on Red, White and Blue 3 days ago:
No. It’s against flag code, but there is no real law or enforcement of the flag code. If you do break it, I will immediately assume you are not a patriot and instead you are a nationalist because you didn’t take the ~5 minutes to look up the flag code.

Nah, I can be mad at the toxic people and the people over reacting. Both are too extreme reactions to each other.

I would accept obnoxious. I don’t think it is obnoxious to add a comment to a forum, but I understand that viewpoint. I just think it’s a far way from toxic.

So you do know is a scam… Geez what was the point of all that? Thanks for wasting my time.

The one where you are scientifically illiterate and can’t spot a scam to stop it and possibly allow public funds to it. So, yeah maybe you will be chipping in for that shipping container.

You don’t think they’re going to try to sell these? You’re falling for the scam already.

It’s wild that people keep falling for this same scam.

Millenials don’t run anything. The senate is still dominated by Boomers and the Reps are dominated by Boomers and Gen X. Boomers have been holding on to jobs so long that by time they die it will be Zoomers time to step up.

Her being timid wasn’t really the part of her character I didn’t like. The fact that she was timid was her only character flaw was what made her a week character. Like she never struggled other than to accept that she was capable of doing things.

Nope, I’ve seen others and have seen reviews.
- Comment on Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans 3 weeks ago:
No, I think you forgot about the people are allowed to have differing opinions about things rule. Generally I love Trek. I did not like Discovery or Picard (I did hear Picard got better in later episodes), but I like everything else. The character Tilly was one of the specific things I didn’t like about Discovery. Life isn’t a weird dichotomy where people love or hate everything. People aren’t only super fans or toxic fans. There is a wide swatch of people in between. As a Trek fan I would think you would be especially aware of all the gray area in between. I don’t know what drives you to attack me as a person for stating an opinion on a fictional character… I hope you get over that some day.

It was in the hot feed… It’s not like I did a ton of “wandering”. One post is hardly “loudly” declaring anything. What’s louder is all the people jumping to conclusions about who I am as a person and as a fan from the one comment.
- Comment on Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans 3 weeks ago:
Is it toxic to not like a poorly written character? I have absolutely nothing against the actress and wouldn’t ever wish harm on an actor/actress just because of a character they portrayed. Are we not allowed to have differing opinions on art?
- Comment on Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans 3 weeks ago:
I mean, it’s Trek. I’ll probably eventually give it a shot. But the stench of Discovery is all over this one.
- Comment on Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans 3 weeks ago:
Sure, if it makes you feel better to call me that. I just don’t care for the direction Trek went with Discovery. I do like SNW though.
- Comment on Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans 3 weeks ago:
From what I’ve seen this show seems more like Discovery than classic Trek. Having Tilly show up confirms that for me. That’s a no thanks from me.
- Comment on Interview: Mary Wiseman On Tilly Settling In As A ‘Starfleet Academy’ Teacher And Dealing With Toxic Fans 3 weeks ago:
Tilly is in this show? Well, I’m glad I never started watching it.

Older 10G SFP+ models were definitely power hungry. I think they’ve gotten better since then, but I haven’t really looked into how much better.
- Comment on Mini PC to replace fiber modem and wifi router. How to proceed? 4 weeks ago:
I would definitely complain. That sounds defective.
- Comment on Mini PC to replace fiber modem and wifi router. How to proceed? 4 weeks ago:
Wow, that’s a power hungry modem… But, look into the power usage of those sfp modules. They can be ~10w on their own.
- Comment on Mini PC to replace fiber modem and wifi router. How to proceed? 4 weeks ago:
Those two devices are likely very low power arm devices. I wouldn’t be surprised if a mini pc consumes more power than those two devices. If power is your concern you should probably measure how much they’re actually pulling.
