A Moto G7 Power with LineageOS.
- Comment on Why is Windows still bloated 1 week ago:
The worst part is MS knew how to do it. They could encapsulate all the legacy code and only load it when needed. But it seem they forgot how to do it again 🤷♂️
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Native Spanish, very good Catalan, good English and some (not enough to speak them) Portuguese, Italian and French.

If you can buy bullets…

But you’ll agree that they can’t be mad at once for Tilli not being fit and for the students in Academy for being too fit.
- Comment on Why are flat earthers so badly harassed and ridiculed by globers? 2 weeks ago:
Imagine someone told you, looking to your eyes, that you don’t exist. Would you say “maybe that person is right and I don’t exist”?
- Comment on Karim Diané on playing Star Trek’s first gay Klingon 2 weeks ago:
“A Russian in a USS ship? This cannot be”
“A bald captain? This cannot be”
“A woman captain? This cannot be”
…
The same people that said Tilly didn’t belong in ST because weight are the same that say people in STA are too good looking. Chose one side, people. Either “no non perfect people” or “no beautiful people”, not both.

Something like finding the her pattern taking it from his memories. After all, there’s telepathy, warp jumps, … so why not.

Anisha won’t be in season 2 so maybe in season 3.

And this is the reason corrupt politicians don’t like “anti-corruption anything”.

It’s better is more fine grained.
- Comment on BYD’s Second-Generation Blade Battery Makes Western EV Tech Look Ancient 3 weeks ago:
If you’re lucky and the charger has a CSS2 port it might be cut off or the machine has the connector but only gives 3KW or…
I’m happy because I can charge at home. But when I have to charge on the road…
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 3 weeks ago:
In Spain you have 4 or 5 years before the first safety inspection. And the then, if it’s a van or bigger it’s each 6 months and if it’s a car, 1 year.
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 3 weeks ago:
In the worst case scenario, charging is almost the same price for the same distance. In the best case (at home) is 10x cheaper.
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 3 weeks ago:
It’s like in a videogame. Power from the start.
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 3 weeks ago:
Any diesel can drive more than 1000 km with a full deposit. But laws forbid in some countries to drive more than 2 hours or 300 km without stopping.

Wasn’t that the script of Elysium?

I don’t know if it would work but… Could an infrared laser expel enough heat?
- Comment on Newish to Fediverse - do I use one account across all services? 4 weeks ago:
I’m thinking of a federated validation service. The check should be only the first time you use the instance and then at random to check if it’s still valid. And the service could have a journal of instances and send then a message if an account changes. This last part as an option.
The account should be the bare minimum data: name, password, contact and little more.
- Comment on Newish to Fediverse - do I use one account across all services? 5 weeks ago:
It would be great if there was a “federated auth service” for all the instances. One account that you could use in each server you like.
- Comment on Cubans fight blackouts with solar as US extends oil chokehold 5 weeks ago:
But having a guy like him push for oil is the best campaign for renewables. If it was for him I’m sure we’d use gasoline even to season the salads.
- Comment on Cubans fight blackouts with solar as US extends oil chokehold 5 weeks ago:
Trump is the best thing that has happened to renewables… outside the US.
- Comment on LibreOffice blasts 'fake open source' OnlyOffice for working with Microsoft to lock users in 5 weeks ago:
LO also has the ribbon interface. But not by default.
- Comment on Annotations for *Star Trek: Starfleet Academy* 1x06: “Come, Let’s Away” 5 weeks ago:
Pifia: When Caleb is sitting in the bed, the trousers are on or off depending on the camera.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | 1x06 "Come, Let's Away" 5 weeks ago:
I guess it was for the same reason Wolverine’s suit is yellow: it looks good on paper.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | 1x06 "Come, Let's Away" 5 weeks ago:
The only thing that upset me was the “on/off” Caleb’s trousers. Every plane change the trousers “toggled”.

That’s why The Great Giana Sisters exist.
- Comment on Kate Mulgrew Defends ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ And Captain Ake From “Disrespectful” Online Attacks 1 month ago:
I don’t mean the name itself. I mean the way Michael behaves. Even more when you think that she was adopted by a Vulcan family.
- Comment on Kate Mulgrew Defends ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ And Captain Ake From “Disrespectful” Online Attacks 1 month ago:
My main problem with DIS has a name: Michael Burnham. Not the actress, the script.
And about your question: no, the crying is only in scenes that work (traumatic or sentimental enough) unlike DIS.
