Annotations for *Star Trek: Discovery* 5x05: "Mirrors" (SPOILERS)
The title of the episode, of course, pretty much telegraphs which parallel universe we’re likely to have elements of this week. The Mirror Universe was a major part of Season 1 of DIS, and the Mirror Philippa Georgiou was a supporting character through the first 3 seasons....

[Request] If you don't live in a swing region/state, better to vote third party than waste your vote on an almost certain outcome. Yeah?
Is this logic flawed? Obviously in swing races, vote how it’s needed, but if it’s probably going to be a landslide, why not vote for a third party? Some regions even allow for multiple party representation if enough people show interest, so it could be doing future good (if you think more parties is better representation)

A bit of an update on my RPi builds
I’ve been working on and off on several of my tools and toys, specifically my raspberry pis that I bought long ago. I’m at a bit of a gripe now for buying the boards from Raspberry Pi Foundation, mostly because I do not like the direction the company is going, but I still have three of the boards lying around before...

Tesla will likely be the market leader in self-driving technology and it's a good thing
Soon it will be undeniable that FSD is the most advanced and safest self-driving system on the planet and the haters just need to accept it. It’s a good thing because it’s literally saving human lives....

Helldiver's The Movie
Hear me out guys. I feel like a movie for Helldiver’s has some potential. Arrowhead could build a Helldiver’s universe and dive into Managed Democracy or it could just be a series of weird dystopian events involving bugs and automatons. Either way with the right care it could make Starship Troopers look like the original...
I think my home network may be compromised, please advise
When I go to iknowwhatyoudownload.com, a bunch of stuff shows up for my IP that’s definitely not being downloaded by anyone in my house (foreign language torrents). Aside from that my router (AT&T Arris BGW210) needs to be restarted about once a week, due to some kind of dhcp issue. The most recent event seemed bad - none of...
Reactionary memes when sorting by new
Hey all, first time posting here. Just a heads up there is someone going around with 3 accounts all named after insulting the mods just posting transphobic, racist, and sexist Facebook tier “memes”. If you want to avoid them, they’re mostly in new as time of writing.
Which internet video will always be hilarious no matter how old it gets?
This year, Olympic medals will be awarded for breakdancing, and it literally makes me sick to my stomach.
This issue really evokes my emotions, because of how much I love sports. I think sports are a vitally important part of the human experience. I guess dance is, too, but we’re not talking about dance, in and of itself....

Expanded Major Order Rewards and Penalties
Large major orders like defend 10 planets over a week should have stated degrees of success and failure. It would be similar to failing a check by 1 or a rolling a crit in a tabletop rpg. There can also be hidden penalties and rewards....
We need Flag Raise Ops on higher difficulties.
I didn’t even know they existed outside of the tutorial, I stumbled upon one on LVL 2 and solo’d it - I can only imagine how stupidly chaotic and fun it’d be to do one with a full group on the higher difficulties.
What's growing on, Beehaw?
We’re halfway through potting up all the plants we’ve overwintered, but are looking at temps below freezing for the next two nights. Today will be about getting covers ready for everything and setting up ambient warmth for several of our plants that are currently flowering. On my way home from a doctor’s appointment, I...

Time blindness strikes...in my favor for once?
I am going to an appt. across town, in part to get my meds refilled. I wasn’t paying attention and missed my stop, but I also overestimated the travel time required, and am on my way in the other direction with plenty of time to spare. 😸
I just want to play my game...
Apparently the Ubisoft servers are down so I cannot play SINGLE PLAYER Breakpoint....
