Bots building post history in an abandoned looking sub. Usually done to get access to some other sub.

With the right looking post history you can scam your way onto a surprising large number of moderation teams.

This is the answer. I stopped using WinRAR the moment I learned about 7zip.

The main reason to electroplate things in gold is that corrosion resistance.

The thinner the coating, the better. Mostly because gold isn’t a very good conductor.

Copper is one of the best conductors available. But the corrosion is the problem. It’s nonconductive.

Also a fun fact. Stainless steel is a better conductor than gold. But gold is slightly easier to use in electroplating.

Republicans cannot replace Trump. He’s got the party by the balls. His daughter in law is the chair of the party.

He’s also funneling all donations to the party into his own pocket.

When Trump loses, the Republican party will implode under all the fraud. I’m all for it.

There was a write up from one of the writers who worked on the series.

This was written after he and most of the team left Valve.

I’d never subject such beings to said diplomat.

Now, the later inquest might show that there was a convent error in the life detection of the Bauldarians, and some of the supposed qualities that the captain laid out, might not have any basis in truth, and that the bauldarians were, in fact, just a rough circle of stones from an ancient meteor impact on a lifeless moon in an unfashionable corner of the Beta Quadrant. One whose name and location were flagged with a warning, and had a warning beacon orbiting the planet left by this very vessel, transmitting this quote in every federation known language;

“Class D Hostile Godlike being. Cannot leave surface without aid. Do not believe any message from the surface, Do not land or transport to the surface”

No, Star Fleet does not allow accidents like that to happen to anyone above the rank of Ensign.

But what we could do, is have her negotiate a terribly important dialog with a group of what the captain believes are a Silicon based life. Probably. They… um, are subject to both a… slow metabalism, and a temporal… reversion… yeah. They take weeks… or even years. Yeah years to say a single word, but do to a… temporal… quantum… entanglement. Yeah, Temporal Quantum Entanglements… Because of that, the Bauldarians need to hear a response the second they stop speaking. And if they don’t get one, the diolog will fail and then where will we be? Right. So yeah, our diplomat needs to stay on the planet within the circle of the Bauldarian council. She can have a shuttle craft to act as a diplomatic living space… but we need to replace the engine with… um, a backup life support system, sure.

Oh, yeah, and the comms on that shuttle, don’t function… due to… ions.

Neelix may have seemed like a bumbling fool, but yeah, he would be a solid choice as security officer. He had years of training under Tuvok, and actually ran point on quite a few of the stranger episodes in the later half of the series.

He rescued the crew a handful of times. So yeah. Neelix is a solid choice for security chief.

He’d perform there far better than as a diplomat. It seems like half the major conflicts the Voyager got into were because of Neelix. The rest were squarely on Janeway.

Most of them were barely old enough to be fathers. Sure you had a few old guys, but most of the idea men were in their 20s or early 30s.

The Texas way. This lawsuit is pure SLAPP. Texas does not have an anti-SLAPP law, and Musk went judge shopping for this specific asshole.

Giuliani was always obsessed with being in the spotlight. Their was a joke in the early 2000s that said the most dangerous place in NY city after 9/11 was anywhere between Giuliani and a camera.

The only thing that changed was that he’s gotten older, and less able to spin a narrative.

Lithium fires need to be doused in salt to put out. Or, technically you can put out a metal fire with gasoline.

You go from a class D fire to a class B fire, and then you can put that out as normal. But yeah, salt is better.

Water is the last thing you want to use on class D fires, followed by CO2. Both have the oxygen ripped off by the burning metal, making the fire burn hotter.

Just after Elden Ring came out, Musk tweeted out his build. Internet sleuths figured out he would have needed to play about 12 hours a day to have that build, and that it was kind of shit.

Methodology would be nice to know, but I think the Kinsey scale is abstract for a reason. It’s a tool to allow a person to broaden their own understanding of themselves.

The scale is likely the Kinsey scale. A 0-6 scale of sexuality. Zero is completely straight and six is completely gay.

Most people find themselves somewhere in the middle, even if they don’t admit it.

I’m somewhere in the range of 1–1.5

I’m firmly attracted to the opposite gender, but might make an exception if the person had a personality that was super compatible with my own. But it’s not something I’m going to seek out.

Latest is that he was a 20 year old registered Republican, who had a social media post about ending the “Evil Epstein Empire”

The social media thing is the only one I’ve not seen fully verified.

One of ten producers. And the one who was mostly in charge fundraising.

The people who were actually in charge of safety and the guns told Baldwin it was safe.

Here’s a slightly better version that’s just things spelled out in the actual project2025.

The Factorio dev. I’ve heard he’s a shit person but not dove deeper into it.

Edit; did some looking and yeah, he’s a shitbag. He claimed that Statutory Rape was a SJW term, and that teachers should be able to seduce their students as long as they weren’t violent.

Then he used a dev blog to link to a racist misogynistic jackass, and when called out on it (The guy just wanted a disclaimer on the link) Korvex went on a rant about cancel culture and then tried to defend the misogynistic views, claiming that “maybe there’s a reason why there are so few women coders”

Legally, at this point, Kamala is the only person who can take over Joe’s election war chest.

And remember, laws still apply to democrats, so we’re kind of fucked.
