There's almost too many good things to make a coherent summary, so let me list some high points: Khan is a tie back to Space Seed, an original series episode featuring Ricardo Montalban. Also, James Horner's sound track was incredible. Kirk's Explosive Reply and Surprise Attack almost tell the story all by themselves. Then there's the well paced storytelling of the cat and mouse battle between Enterprise and Reliant. Throw in some dark sci-fi elements (possibly Alien inspired) like the ear bugs and the abandoned science station filled with rats and dead bodies. There's the Trekish ethical/moral plot of making Genesis vs using it (not unlike Oppenheimer). The self exploration of a middle aged Kirk who's realized he's getting older and regrets missing out on a family. The no win scenario and the loss of Spock. Spock's death is a powerful scene that plays Vulcan logic against human emotion on the stage of a deep friendship. Generally, the film transforms Kirk into a three dimensional character. Those are a few things.
After using it since Lucid Lynx 10.04, I switched from Ubuntu to Mint last weekend. I'm lazy about distros these days, and I really didn't want to switch, but Firefox instability was driving me nuts. The web browser must be reliable, IMO. It's a fundamental requirement for a desktop OS, and this problem didn't exist before snaps.
There are some informative answers elsewhere, however, I noticed a gap between the comments and my expectations, bidet-wise: here's a link to the relevant SNL Bidet sketch: https://piped.video/watch?v=zQx-ZbSQSBM&t=0. Enjoy
There are some good ideas in this comment, but I'd like to counter that the cautionary tales are an instigating factor in implementing safety for new tech. The wealthy few shouldn't get to blindly and unilaterally decide the future of all through careless and unrestricted development of world-altering tech.
Not related to the headline/article, I'd just like to comment on funniness the picture, from left to right: confused disbelief, dismissive disbelief, indignant disbelief. Much furrowing of brows, such concern.
IMO, the focus should be on being a good person and not on conforming to unrealistic gender stereotypes. One's gender presentation (or lack) is enhanced by universal positive attributes like honesty, confidence, commitment, charity, etc. This is not an original idea, but thought it worth saying.
Agreed, all those stars, planets and mass smashing together at literally a galactic scale. I wonder about how many years over which the collisions take place. Like, is there enough time for life to evolve only to get unceremoniously pulverized into oblivion? It makes me think of the whale and the petunia.
It's worth trying. Lobster has a mild flavor and a smooth chewy texture. It tastes great with butter and lemon, though there are probably better ways to enjoy it. Crab is similar. One thing that takes some training and patience is removing the exoskeleton. But, that's pretty fun, too. My kiddo likes to play with the claws afterward. When no one's looking, I do too.
Goodness, that needs to stop. I'll concede it's a life saving tool during natural disasters or in places where tap water is unavailable, but the rest of the time it's a symbol of waste and ignorance. On my walks I see at least one half full bottle of water every day on the ground. Some dummy paid real money for it, then couldn't be bothered to even dispose of it properly.
I can see this being an unpopular opinion. I regularly hear people complain about Arby's. Also, at least once a year I'll hear some rumor about maggots or the plastic wrapped, pre sliced roast beef resembling alien heads in formaldehyde.
TBH, I try not to think of that. They make a good brisket sandwich. Curly fries, too. Those are great. And, like OP says, even their chicken is good.
I don't blame him for not wanting to travel. Airplane safety is a real concern these days.
