- Comment on Do you have any “headcanons” (so to speak) about the Star Trek TNG characters? 5 days ago:
In the episode “The Perfect Mate” Riker gets all teased and worked up by the sexy alien.
He escapes the conversion saying “I’ll be in the holodeck” with a lot of implication!

The bad guys are the bleach, and humans are the germs.
Kills 99.9%
We find the 0.1% as we play!

I’m not Sure but I know an old lady who swallowed a fly…

Does it also help reticulate my splines?
- Comment on Are there any Trek episodes where they enforce the Prime Directive to protect a developing world within Federation space from an external influence? 1 week ago:
And… Spoiler… It was an internal conflict anyway

I can not count the number of times I’ve heard that from Americans over the years.
Makes it hard to believe the cries of “this time we mean it”

Jimmy Carr, if he never had surgery
- Comment on Choose to live in reality 1 month ago:
This view supposes we are external to reality.
From another view, our capacity to shape reality is limited and defined by the nature of reality.
- Comment on Sokath, his browser’s eyes wide open 1 month ago:
I think their blog makes it clear that it isn’t them that’s changing
Its that legal definitions are changing around them and they need to reflect that in their terms.

Links? What kind of links?
I hope it’s a tunnel.
We need more infrastructure

Still weird for me to see him with eyes.

I can’t blame them, their cousins are hot.

Getting any printer to work is hard enough.
Getting an old, worn unreliable one is not a solution that would work for everyone. I doubt there would be enough of these for everyone who hates their printer anyway.
Also, printer nonsense has been going on so long, it’s probably impossible to totally avoid

Why’s that?

That’d be great. Love to get a bigger better setup and just leave this one to run the surveillance system

- Comment on Israel imposes sweeping restrictions to 'protect soldiers' from war crimes prosecution 3 months ago:
That kinda sounds like an admission that they know soldiers are committing war crimes, doesn’t it?
- Comment on What's the greatest joy you have gotten from a video game? 3 months ago:
Mass Effect, almost certainly with plenty of honourable mentions to other games.
Peak is the Dramatic Scene at the end of ME1 after the final boss. Really really moved by events on Tuchunka and Rannoch.
Favourite moment outside Mass Effect, JC Denton saying “You’re gonna burn, alright”
- Comment on What's the deal with male loneliness? 3 months ago:
Absolutely agree.
One of the ways we’ve gone wrong so far is that people do need some guidance at least on what is possible and acceptable.
Just saying to young people “Be whatever you want to be” is unhelpful and confusing.
Role models of all kinds and representation matter so people who are figuring these things out as they grow have inspiration, ideas, can see who they are reflected in the world around them so they can put a name to the feeling.
If we can do that without shaming, blaming or excluding then people can find their way without the need of gender binary.
Caveat, not everyone is a suitable role model. Some people are warnings, not examples.
- Comment on The majority of drowning victims in Australia are men. There are strategies to keep everyone safe 3 months ago:
Imagine how much worse it could get if they drank something wide alcohol in it.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 released in December 2020. Almost 4 years later, what is your opinion on it? 5 months ago:
I’m with this. Totally agree.
What game is there that does this kind of gameplay better?
Only the original Deus Ex has captured this genre so well.
- Comment on You have a bad friend if he isn't willing to help you bury a dead body or if he is willing to help you. 5 months ago:
For me it’d be fine. For my actually close friends I specifically said I would help them with a body if needed, so they’re honouring my wishes by asking

I think it’s acute angle

That is a truly excellent joke. I will remember that
- Comment on Nvidia blocks access to video card driver updates for users from Russia and Belarus. 5 months ago:
How would that number change if all those people had access to independent reporting?
- Comment on Maybe all this AI bullshit might finally push people to touch grass and interact face to face some more 6 months ago:
You think the reason people engage with “content” is the quality and a drop in quality would decrease engagement?
I’m skeptical
