Very interesting! I dug even further and found the description of the test: https://atts.org/tt-test-description/

I just thought VP at tech was the same as VP at finance. That is to say, meaningless.

I took a peek at my local sub and a thread asking about a car incident was full of one-liner jokes voted to the top. It was about 2/3 down before I saw an attempt at a real answer and even further down still before anyone wondered if the occupants were OK.

Mods: We want better mod tools. PLEEAAASEE!!!

My dude, it’s ok to shill Lemmy/Fediverse. I’ve been doing it to people I know IRL that use R3dd!t.

Ok, at the risk of sounding like a filthy casual, it’s only now when I’m digging into Memory Alpha that I realized we’re finally getting visualization of what Pike was so miserable about in TOS the Cage. I was like, why does Rigel VII sound so familiar…

This is the kind of retcon I live for!!

Holy crap… TIL that the USA has a specialized savings account for medical expenses. Like… if they know it’s inevitable that people have to spend money for their health in one way or another, this is kinda like the ultimate “Don’t care if you die or suffer” attitude. Surely the bureaucracy to figure out the tax codes behind this kind of thing would costs more than just implementing universal health care… wouldn’t it?

Nah, I’m just taking the piss. I even played games on the really old, really FLOPPY 5.5" disks. Wheel of fortune… good times, good times.

Some lesser quality Futurama is still better than no Futurama

Wow, a floppy disk! It’s just like that save icon, hahahaha

Drama only exists when people aren’t kind to each other. So, no thanks?

I saw a comment that said they welcome the day reddit sanitizes offensive usernames FOR THE CHILDREN. The soccer moms are already there.

This episode was striking in that it showed the crew of the Enterprise being the best of the best Starfleet officers. Pike going to literally the brink of death to find his #1 the best lawyer in the galaxy, Uhura telling La’an off for making an illegal request, La’an trying to poke holes into weak chinks in security, and Una stepping up to lay it all out on the table so her friends won’t have to keep her secret and be in danger for doing so. Amazing. No wonder they’re posted on the flagship.

Oh yeah, an actual lawyer and one who was not assigned by Starfleet. Una was also spot on with her complaint that her original counsel was paid by those prosecuting her. 👏

I just finished watching that episode and oh boy is it a head spinner. Damn you, Charlie Brooker, you’ve done it again and I love you.
