About Pike’s hair, am I wrong or is vulcanian Pike’s hair even more erected than human Pike?
- Comment on 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Producers Promise Season 4 Will Be Better 10 hours ago:
You are right, with 20+ episodes it’s easier to have a common theme while still being episodic enough to have episodes that don’t advance the plot but are either funny or explore some unrelated theme. 10 episodes season work for a serialized series (like discovery), but an episodic 10 episodes series is a hybrid of the two and more difficult to pull throught.
However, I still think they did a good job, the season was fun and enjoyable, and I don’t really care there’s no “big picture plot”. After all, this is not telling the voyage of a ship lost in the galaxy or a multi-year war with a foreign dominion, it’s a character build-up story that will eventually become the original series, it’s a prequel and doesn’t try to be anything else. Surely I enjoyed it more than galaxy-destroying-threat-of-the-year discovery.

Never seen boomer humor referencing furries, grindr and trans people. Usually it’s about bosses, mondays and taxes

The entire episode, while enjoyable, was prettt rushed, if it was split in a two-parts season finale they would probably fit in more explaination scenes, like at least an aknowledgement from Batel and some more explaining/exploration of what she was.

The villain is “evil itself”, I don’t really see a way to not make it one-dimensional, he is literally one thing only.

From what I get it, the fanatasy/hallucination wss made by Batel for herself and Pike, because she knew they would never see again, so she (somehow, I guess guardians can make you live a life in 5 seconds?) constructed a fake world so they could, in some way, live their life together. That’s why Pike didn’t suffer the accident, and that’s why Bayel thanks him on her deathbed and tells him to open the door. She got her life together with him, it was time to get back to reality and become the Guardian.
That’s also why the falling star happears in the planet, she told him she would follow everywhere in his heart, and a falling star happears “here I am”

But by augmenting him, Bashir became a super genius, so it wasn’t just to “relieve him”, they went a lot more forward

If you sell me a 2" by 4" board, you cut it 2"+the width of the sawblade, just like the metric boards are sold.
Also is a saw really 1/2" wide? That’s like 1.27cm, that’s wild.
If you really really cannot sell a true 2"x4" at the price of a 1.5" x3.5", just keep the same price and call it what it is.
- Comment on xkcd #3138: Dimensional Lumber Tape Measure 1 week ago:
There is no sensible reason to sell something as a dimension before it’s ready to sell, a 2"x4" should be so when sold, not when curing, it takes nothing to cut oversize to accomodate for shrinkage, or to cure and cut later at the right dimension
- Comment on Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs 1 week ago:
Not only the content doesn’t exist yet, it’s just not practical. Even now 4k broadcasting is rare and 4k streaming is a premium, imagine 8k that would roughly quadruple the amount of data required to transmit it (and transmit speee is not linear, 4x the speed would probably be at least 8x the cost).

Basically one car breaking too much will make the following brake even more and so on until one stops and there’s a jam. There is no clear reason like a road blockage or an accident, just compounding slow down.

Where do you think today’s problems come from? Bad education makes a generation of ignorant, functionally illiterate, warmongering subjects.

The most annoying thing is it blasting “battery low” every 30 seconds when the battery gets below 20%, making them absolutely unusable. At least Sony lets out a ver short beep to let you know, and only twice

When you bought an album you owned it for life. With spotify you are borrowing the music and if you stop paying you get nothing left

Such an experiment would be highly unethical and of doubtful interest. After all, you already know sexuality develops without influence, is it useful to know if it develops differently under pressure? To do so it requires to possibly ruin people’s live, that’s why it’s not done.
Also, we already have the opposite experience: gays being convinced to be straight. As far as I know, it doesn’t really work and only creates suppressed emotions that ruins their sexuality.

10 or so years ago, Steam accepted payments in Bitcoin, for some reason they stopped, so they certinaly can do that but chose not to.
Also, 99% of people would not use it so wouldn’t change much.

Also just because you habe fantasies at some point, doesn’t mean you will follow the and they won’t “go away” in the future. That’s just your brain trying to figure out the unclean mess that sexual orientation is.

That’s not what I’m saying, a healthy diet consists of different sources of calories. There’s no “better source than others”, you need all in different quantities. Some are worse in excess, but you still need all for a balanced nutrition.

Everything is bad in excessive, especially oils and fats given their high calory content. Sugar may be ““worse””, doesn’t mean fats are good
