I haven't run an OS off a spinning disk for over a decade but I still remember how big the leap in general usability was when switching to SSD

It's also dangerous to walk outdoors at all. I saw the aftermath of a drunk driver killing a pedestrian at 6 AM a few days ago. There was debris spread for at least a hundred meters down the road. The news said the driver was uninjured.

He should on no account be allowed within 500m of a child, ever. If that means beaming him into space without a suit since the Voyager is only 343 meters long, so much the better.

Is this giving Neelix credit for being less creepy after Kes wasn't there for him to creep on anymore?

When Linux doesn't do what I want, it's never because it was deliberately designed not to do what I want in order to increase shareholder value

Star Trek should absolutely be gatekept from conservatives.

It had exactly the opposite effect for me. I greatly disliked season 1 of Discovery but thought they wrapped it up well enough at the end of the season that they could move on. Georgiou showing back up in season 2 read to me as them having learned absolutely nothing and doubling down on the disaster rather than backpedaling from it.

It's very good and only gets better as it goes on. Season 2 was fantastic.

Your wife has watched 3/4 of the good modern Trek series and should watch Prodigy. (and the TNG era Treks)

I like Strange New Worlds. Very much hoping they complicate the Gorn cliffhanger they left the last season off with though.
