  • To be fair it’s a pretty cool way to describe an engine

  • I think a good head cannon for this is that a mug is such a basic thing that you don't really need to keep re-inventing a new design from scratch. So when a new replicator system/technology comes out, you just port stuff over from the old one. Like maybe it's one of those patterns in the replicator database that just goes back eons to united earth or something.

  • um.... sorry you have to find out this way but mom totally cancelled your account

  • scrolling idly on the phone

    "What are you doing? We have your wife motherfucker!"

    "Oh, just trying to figure out what music to kill you to"

  • Not quite related to the conversation, but I think it would be funny if a CEO tried to run a business into the ground but ended up being the most successful and beloved CEO in the company's history.

    "I know, if I enact a 4 day workweek, nobody will have time to get anything done"

    "Okay so that didn't work... Maybe if I increase staffing, give everyone a raise, the overhead will eat into the company profits and nobody will want to invest!"

    "Um... I'll have the dev team drag their heels on product release! Nobody will want to buy our product if we release a month late. Heck, maybe if we wait until the devs say it's ready we won't release anything at all! This plan is sure to work!"

  • That plus those seats designed to put strain on your legs would be a 0/10 pooping experience. The only way I could think to make it worse is if you could find a way to send an all-hands message in Slack: "567primemover has been on the toilet for more than 7 minutes. Send him a word of encouragement!"

  • And this meme can be easily updated by putting one single "5G" next to the left-hand leg of the bedframe and nowhere else

  • Because for some reason, our entire economy is built on short term profit rather than longevity and stability.

  • Sisko and the prophets chillin in the celestial temple having watched every episode to ever air

  • Yup, comes out today! IIRC two episodes today, and then one a week until November

  • picking parsnips at 9000 fps never felt so good

  • Exactly. I don't see it surprising, but cool as hell. Its neat to see how our language can evolve, and also a reminder that it's evolving all the time.

  • IDK why your comment reminded me, but back when I was in middle school (late 90s) we had an anti drug guest speaker. One of those ones where they were former addicts trying to scare you out of trying drugs. During the Q&A, someone asked him a question and that got him onto how plastic water bottles were super bad for you and you should never drink out of plastic because you’re ingesting tiny plastic particles. I remember we were laughing at him while administration was trying to shoo him off the stage.

    Now we just kinda shrug when told we’re ingesting a credit card worth of plastic every week, lol.

  • Love it! You took something absolutely depressing and transformed it into a beacon of hope

  • Finds 100 kilos of cocaine

    “Who would leave 70 kilos of coke just floating in the river?”
