Nice surprise I found was “Captain” Rhys! Damn he looked fly as hell in that chair!

I like to imagine the actor saying "Look, I'm fed up with the Harry Kim treatment! Get me in that damn chair or I'm walking away!"

I mean, based on the image, it does say the caffine content prominently up front.

It wasn't always labeled so prominently.

What linguistic constructions do you hate that no one else seems to mind?

It bugs me when people say "the thing is is that" (if you listen for it, you'll start hearing it... or maybe that's something that people only do in my area.) ("What the thing is is that..." is fine. But "the thing is is that..." bugs me.)...

Just because thing, [that] doesn't mean other thing.

You can't even prove that it's grammatically incorrect!

But it sounds awful. And I can't even come up with an alternative.

I was going to recommend Chromecast Audio, but Google killed that.

Google Home Mini might be a good alternative. You can actually pair it via Bluetooth to an external speaker. Then you can cast directly to it.

That's what they just said. It should have been fixed 124 years ago.

What does a license have to do with the topic?

How very Facebook will sell your data if you do not copy and paste this message of them.

Their posts show up in Google with ads next to them. That is commercial use, which is prohibited by that license. I wonder if they intend to sue Google.

E.g. why do you need more than 2 years of support for a workstation?

Enterprise isn't rolling out the new release on release day.

Enterprise is waiting until the ".1" release so that the most glaring bugs can be identified and resolved. And enterprise is doing gradual rollouts after that, with validation, training, hardware refreshes, etc.

For a release with only two years of security updates, it would not be surprising for a given enterprise to only have the chance to take advantage of, at most, one year of them.

A two-year LTS release cadence with a five-year tail of support and security updates is much more practical. That leaves enough overlap in support for enterprises to maintain their own two-year refresh cadence without having to go through periods without security updates and support.

Stating that debian isn't secure enough really confuses me as it is one of the most solid distros out there.

Where is the toggle to enable NIST-certified FIPS compliance in Debian? On Ubuntu you just enable it using the pro client and reboot.

May I present to you: The Wikipedia Star Trek Into Darkness Debate ( en.wikipedia.org )

From December 1, 2012, until January 31, 2013, a stylistic disagreement unfolded between editors on the English-language Wikipedia as to whether the word "into" in the title of the Wikipedia article for the 2013 film Star Trek Into Darkness should be capitalized. More than 40,000 words were written on the article's talk page (a...

And what about that part with the warp trail shenanigans? There were 20 different trails, so they don’t know which way they really went? Why not just do 20 jumps and find out? Didn’t they do like 100 in short succession in season 1?

Hang in there though! The rest of them are good!

It would have been BackTrack Knoppix back then. And even that wasn’t released until 2000.

Could the Federation defeat Star Wars' Empire in an all-out war?

Would a Federation warship like the Defiant out gun a Star Wars Star Destroyer? Who has a bigger armada? Who has the tactical advantage? Don’t forget that The Federation includes the Klingons, who love warfare and have fast, agile, heavily armed ships, with cloaking devices, and the Vulcans with superior logic and tactical...

Palisades Nuclear Plant in Michigan Plans to Reopen With $1.5 Billion Loan ( www.nytimes.com )

At this point the sheer complexity is too much of a barrier to entry. You are talking about centuries of man-hours to even approach par.

The script-based systems came first. They had to evolve into the amalgamation of pitfalls that they have become for someone to abstract out their important concepts into something that could use configuration files.

They already do that regardless of the state of those toggles. You have to turn that off in a different spot.

The main Bluetooth and Wi-Fi toggles otherwise just stop your device from actively associating/pairing with other devices. They do not control the radios.
