Turbo was the default behavior. There was a toggle button that turned off the turbo light and slowed the machine down when needed for compatibility. Note: almost nobody needed this capability it sometimes they bumped the button and later wondered why the pc was slow.

When they moved it must have sounded like crinkling bags of Sun Chips

There was no Fox News, Facebook or Joe Rogan when watergate happened and no citizens united yet so there was a shared concept of reality in the country.

Trump was tried for stealing state secrets but a judge he appointed abstructed justice for him and he got away with it.

What if Zelda the president of NOA was a girl.

Why the fuck is the president rolling back or setting any regulation? That’s what congress is for. Also, for example, they are supposedly handling tariffs and upholding the constitution. Their duties include impeaching and removing from office presidents that violate their oaths and the constitution.

Yes I know we’re in this mess due to the combo of an evil fascist president and a weak corrupt congress. And decades of congress allowing presidential power to escalate.

The Flintstones fascinated me when I was a kid because everything had already been invented but it was just made out of rocks and wood instead of metal and plastic. So for example they had a stone dishwasher appliance powered by a bird or something.

The bigger problem is that your skills are weakened a bit every time you use an assistant to write code.

I like how Riker is sitting. I think it qualifies as manspreading.

That would be telling

Ok this bugs me too.

One of the themes of Star Trek is that humans moved on from the greed and violence of the past. This is due to two things:

• There was a nuclear war that wiped out almost everything and that taught a lesson.
• Society is post scarcity. Due to replicators, anyone can have anything they want.

I’m skeptical of the first one because in history there have been several wars that wiped out almost everything and people go back to their old ways in a generation.

I’m even more skeptical of the second one. Frankly, we are basically post scarcity now. The whole world could easily be fed and housed with our current tech. But they just aren’t because of greed and hoarding.

You can bet that if replicators were invented tomorrow they would all be hogged by Musk and Bezos and Putin.

Boy, I say boy, you got so many pins in your head I’m gonna use it to make some string art.
