Do you like all the trek? I thought Lower Decks and Discovery both started great but kind of fell off. I heard Picard was good.

If voyager went sublight they could time dilate themselves into the future. Idk why I just realized this.

Eh jk I guess they're too far away anyway. Any Earth they would recognize is gone.

I named my cat Mariner because of the character. She's actually my favorite star trek character of all time.

And what a sweet deal it is for the fall guy.

"Hey we need to roll out an unpopular policy change. If you agree to take the PR hit we'll give you $30 million"

Best gig in a lifetime.

Remember when Google hired brilliant, talented engineers to build quality products?

Those were the days.

Boss: kids your age are so incredibly arrogant. You think you deserve the world.

Me: we are the same age.

Boss: huh

This actually happened.

I don't understand why everyone at corporate Amazon is fine with this. I am a white collar corporate sell out asshole and I support unions 100% of the time, full stop.

You absolutely must watch this episode https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Measure_of_a_Man_(Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation) the entire premise is that Picard provides a legal defense for the personhood of Data. The episode is literally a court case and it is one of the most well received episodes.

I think your slavery analogy holds. I don't think the Federation believes Data can be a slave because they don't believe he is sentient. But they do pick and choose how to apply their legal code to Data.

Data broke himself out of the government lab because he hadn't consented to be experimented upon and he believed his detention was unlawful.

The Federation arrested him because he is their legal property and by him leaving he stole highly sensitive government technology.

Fuck the Federation. I stan for the true leader of the Alpha and Beta quadrants, >!the Grand Nagus!<.

Yeah 100% this. Why would you not buy Valve? The store is a cash cow and the userbase is huge. They have a lot of good faith with the community too. These must be rage bait articles.

When I learned that lying was not only the expected, but required, my communication in the workplace improved. It’s sad but it is what it is.

And folks/folx!

Because they demonized every other greeting as inherently evil and now they’re only left with weird, archaic English phrases.

Then you grow up to have panic attacks.

Some mental illnesses are “cool” or “accepted” now. They are socially acceptable to talk about and having one can even give you clout. Depression and ADHD are in this category.

The rest of the disabilities are still too taboo to talk about. You are better off just keeping it to yourself. Bipolar, schizo-affective, and borderline personality disorder are in this category.

Today, people will tell you with a straight face that they are a victim because they have one of the popular illnesses. It is “in” to be a victim now but, ironically, it’s only socially acceptable to be a victim of some illnesses. If you have e.g. bipolar disorder it’s so stigmatized that you will face repercussions for announcing it yet people still have the audacity to tell you they are a victim.

Yeah. At first I quickly hid my phone (I’m in public) because I thought this was going to be a really racist meme.

While you may be correct, if you’re on a dogmatic team, work with dogmatic people, or are a part of a dogmatic company, you probably need to avoid duplication. This is because duplicate code is an easy thing for a reviewer to nitpick and reviewing code can sometimes be more about showing off and less about ensuring code quality.
