What kind of music does data listen to?

You might be quick to answer “Electronic”

We have been shown he listens to all kinds of music. At the same time.

In this ONE instance, I think it’s okay to ignore the rules. Although if data wanted to change the music, can anyone really stop him?

I worked at a sporting goods store that sold guns and athletic apparel during the Colin Kaepernick/Nike deal, and the amount of people coming in to BUY Nike clothing and some ammo to shoot it with…

I wonder if it ever clicked for any of them that they’re still buying Nike and more importantly, they’re giving free advertising every time they upload a video to facebook to show all their buddies how they owned the libs today.

There is a federation standard for which way is “up” based on the plane of the galaxy.

So at least that explains why Federation ships always meet on “level ground”

as for why the romulans, klingon, and various other non federation, especially non friendly species from the other quadrants, would be oriented the same way?

Idk, maybe the progenitor race from that one single episode of tng that never showed up or was spoken of again made some kind of subliminal or genetic memories of which way up should be.

There’s an insane amount of overlap of “those degenerate druggies deserve to rot in prison for life” and “weed should never have been illegal and we should legalize it” around where I live.

In fact, the thing that brought it to my attention in the first place was a family friend and I talking about people we knew in highschool, and he mentioned how one guy got arrested for having “half a dozen” (sidenote: I feel saying half a dozen is trying to make “six” sound more impressive) pot plants and obviously was a “major dealer”, and how he never would have guessed how evil some people are from how they were in highschool.

I asked him what ELSE he had to get 10 YEARS and of course the answer wasalong the lines of “no, that was it but what more do you need? Obviously a messed up guy”

And would you like to know why I called him a hypocritical piece of shit and decided to find someone else to talk to?

He pulls out a thc vape several times while we’re talking. You can’t mistake that smell for anything else.

I guess what makes men TRULY evil is whether mild thing they’re doing is currently illegal or not. When it’s legalized? Smoking is totally fine. When it’s illegal? Smoking is bad and you are evil for even considering it. Know your place, Peasant.

At least that’s the vibe I got from that guy.

I’m sorry for all the dolly fans out there, but I have a confession… I don’t care for her music.

But I will defend this woman simply because her charity work alone makes her deserving of much more.

And I know I don’t even know half of what she does.

So if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go sharpen up my torches and light my pitchforks, because ain’t nobody dissing dolly Parton around me.

My wife insists that broccoli is disgusting.

Honestly a 40k fine for me might as well be life-ending. Possibly self-inflicted, depending on my mental state at the time.

Community service makes much more sense.

I’d make him do like 5 hours of CS for every year since the archeology site was inhabited, and 200 hours for every offence. The older the site, the more you have to work off. The more you deface, the more you work off.

I mean, those are just random numbers I pulled out of my ass but you get the idea.

Hell I’ve got THREE versions of farming simulator I got free from steam, epic, or somewhere else (legitimately)

I could start on my backlog of sub $15 games and be fine until current releases are sub $15.

Very nice! I just picked up watch dogs and watch dogs 2 deluxe editions as a bundle for like $13 after tax.

I’m even eyeing the rdr2 sale on epic right nowcfor under 25.

There are so many good options that don’t look dated at all to me.

Honestly, crysis looked amazing on my 10 year old laptop. I kind of want to replay them again on my new one to see how much better everything looks on ultra.

It helps if you actually live near bats.

I came home to a small ball of fluff and wings wrapped up in the corner of my porch one day, so for gits and shiggles I put up a small bat box on a post against the trees nearby.

It took a week or two but I noticed it was in use when I went outside one night and saw one pop out of it.

Protip: be very careful about what you use to stain/paint it. Apparently they don’t like the smell of those things. I didn’t paint mine.

Bats need a real estate agent…

THE ECONOMY IS DOING GREAT, PEOPLE, STOP SAYING IT ISN’T

homelessness on the rise

people living paycheck-to-paycheck on the rise

cost of living increasing faster than income growth

corporations doubling prices for no reason other than they realized they can, thus resulting in record profits for huge companies

Oh right, that’s what it means.

Big businesses are making more money.

The Poors don’t factor into such things, so their problems aren’t real economic problems.

Nice to know your industry relies on spinning statistics in favor of corporations, when said corporations are responsible for the issues in the first place.

You can increase government social programs by 30% but if cost of living increases 50%, guess what does fuck-all.

You’re blaming the wrong group here.

Jesus fucking christ you people are so dependent on the system you literally can’t even comprehend the fact that nobody should need to be working when there’s a higher priority like family.

Make all the “oh but they’re easy to take care of/if the person wants to work/the company is a good one for this” coping excuses you need to feel good about how shitty working lives have become, I guess.

Don’t bother responding if you’re going to make more excuses why “this is good/okay”, you’re speaking to a wall.

Legit that’s what my last employer did when a soda machine had a recall on one of the diet sodas.

Just pulled however many quarters from a register, bought all of them, and boxed them up with LOTO tape all over the box. When the guy came in to resupply, he was given the box and pulled the quarters out of the machine and gave them back.

He also left a small stack of reimbursement tags to be left on the machine, fill out what the soda was, what was wrong with it (expired, wrong soda dispensed, etc), and whoever came back would leave the cost taped to the tag with the office to return to the right employee.

I will happily take an extra large roundabout.

Or “traffic circle” if you’re feeling fancy.

It’s taken more than 5 years but I feel like people in the city I just moved out of are finally understanding the ones in town.

Now almost nobody stops at them like an intersection. And i haven’t seen a crash from someone launching themselves straight over the center in months.

Transporter_Room_3,
@Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website avatar

In almost every case, it’s because the entity that owns it doesn’t actually have to use it daily, because then you know they’d fight to get whatever safety measures they can cram into it.

Last city I lived in had a new intersection put in with a 2 way stop (only one of the roads stops, and you have to yield to main road traffic)

After tons of minor accidents and altercations arising from disgruntled people having to swerve or slam on brakes, the city out out a statement saying basically they’ve done studies and it’s safer than other intersections so nothing will be done to it.

Two or three years go by and one of the city council people moved and now has to use that intersection.

Within a month it had stoplights installed without a word.

Could be a coincidence. Maybe they even had been planning that for the entire two or three years.

But I personally believe nobody gave a shit until an “important” person (you know, that high-stake, much coveted small town council seat) had to use the intersection.

Transporter_Room_3,
@Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website avatar

You’d think it was all DUIs but no.

I lived within view of one so every time I heard a mildly distant crashing sound, it was almost always someone fucking up at the roundabout. Quite a few Dukes of Hazzard wannabes were completely sober, but “didn’t know the area and were speeding”. In case you’re wondering, it’s well lit, you have ample warning with both reduced speed and the big circling arrow signs, and it’s even at the end of long straight hits so you have a clear view of what’s coming. So as far as I’m concerned, there’s no excuse.

I’ve never heard more bitching and moaning about communism than when the city first started considering putting “those damn communist euro things instead of a proper stop sign”

Like damn Bro I didn’t realize people could hate efficient traffic flow so much.

I made about $3,000 more last year than the year before, so now I have a little under 30 days to use literally all the healthcare related things I can before I lose government insurance.

My yearly medical costs are higher than $3,000 but not enough to justify getting insurance.

So now I get to lose money because I made more money, Unlike all those fuckwads who blather on about how they’re paying more in taxes now than their raise was…

I like watching Rick and Morty.

I have exactly 0 accessories, paraphernalia, or otherwise branded items in my possession that indicate that.

I feel fairly confident that most people here are aware of how childish, arrogant, and honestly just downright insufferable Rick and morty “fans” can be.

  • nuggy sauce reeeeeeeeeeeeee screeches in the background*

It seems like every time it comes up in conversation, and the other person is a fan, they immediately seem to launch into a tirade about how modern shows are all crap because they’re stupid, not like THIS show. It’s like the “you have to have a high IQ” meme just became the unironic norm for a lot of people.

It’s usually fart jokes and lowest common denominator humor dressed up in Sci fi tropes. You aren’t special for understanding highschool introductory phycisal science.

Futurama is arguably the same kind of show, but they know exactly what they are, and the writers actually have well educated backgrounds to make the science stuff a bit less… “VX nozzle on the turboencabulator”-esque

I’m gonna have to go with “Inner Light” from TNG

It has so many typical star trek things, but it does lack a few things here and there.

It’s always my go-to when someone wants an episode recommendation to see if they’ll like the show.
