I don’t think even Borg shields can adapt to the main weapon on the Death Star. But as you said, they don’t really need to. Send multiple cubes. They don’t even need to beam over. Borg do fine in vacuum, just throw a bunch of drones at the Death Star, they’ll eventually find their way inside.

I don’t care what anyone says, this product is amazing and I’m sad it’s sold out.

Yes, it was fool proof, until the world gave me a bigger fool.

I work with programmers and devops people who think BitWarden is too complicated. I get it when it comes to the product team and BAs, but even then.

It in TOS I don’t recall it, in TNG there was an inter planetary race to find the McGuffin, which was just a message of how the first humanoids seeded all the planets with carbon life with their DNA so we would all evolve into humanoids.

Also has a history of duplicating people entirely or duplicating their body but splitting their personality (passive Kirk and aggressive Kirk in season 1).

How big is your dog?!

If we can recycle single use plastic into this, then great. Somehow I doubt that’s how it would be made.

Nope!

You call no one. You buy a safe of your own. You start buying your groceries in two transactions, one with your card like always, the other in cash. Every other time you fill your gas tank you use a little of the cash. Clothes are all cash till that safe is empty. Buy all your gifts from the farmer’s markets or other “street walk” events. Who cares if it’s more than you normally spend, the point is that officially, you bought no gifts. Cash anytime you go out to eat.

Get what you can from Facebook marketplace or Craigslist, but never anything that would mean title or registration. Those all need to come with deductions from bank accounts you can point to. The point is that by “cutting” a bunch of explainable expenses, you can eventually save up for the big spend item and buy that officially.

How is it that this literally came up in conversation at the family get together over the weekend, and on Monday it’s being memed? Proof again this world is just a simulation and has memory limitations.

Only one comment barely touched on it, but the price of gas is a huge factor. 2 years ago, gas prices were generally higher and very unstable. This drove the demand for EVs up. Because of supply chain issues, no one could make any cars fast enough. This scarcity combined with the gas prices drive demand while restricting supply.

Come to today and you have the gas prices being stabilized in the US by tapping into the strategic reserve. Once the election cycle is over expect that to stop and gas prices will again rise and become unstable again. EV demand will jump, so we should see the used market adjust accordingly. If you want to go with a used EV in the next couple years, now till November is the time.

Getting a job is a multi stage battle. Options 1, 2, and 3.5 won’t get you past the first stage, the inept HR screener. Doesn’t matter if it’s an entry level job, your resume looks worse to them than anyone with any professional experience. Option 3 kinda works for it, but even better would be an internship or two. That looks like real experience to the HR monkeys. Once you slay them, now you’re to the manager resume screen. This is where options 1 and 2, and maybe 3.5 can help. Score an interview with them, then it’s up to your shining personality to get you the rest of the way.

Every job in the industry has hundreds of applicants these days. It’s no longer enough that your resume meets the requirements, it’s got to actually compete. Since most jobs allow remote these days, it’s got to compete on a national or even international scale. Apply to on-site or hybrid roles to limit the market of competition. Make sure your resume screams that you’re better than the rest.

Good luck!

Look into Telo trucks. Modern, electric, safe, small. I know they haven’t launched yet, but i have high hopes they get everyone rethinking their pickup choices.

Yeah, but every ant, rat, and snake is an earthling to. That’s saying we are from the planet earth. The other terms are more about being part of the political entity of earth. If you are a Marsling, you could immigrate to become an Earthican, but you can never be an Earthling. Same for the other direction, being from earth we may some day become Martians, but can never be Marslings. Source: it’s as made up as every other part of the English language.

The MachE is the same size as the bolt and it’s rather affordable on the used market. It doesn’t feel like an SUV to drive and barely looks like one. If you don’t like the look, then you don’t like the look, but that doesn’t mean that American manufacturers “aren’t producing shit” it’s that they aren’t producing anything that fits your aesthetic. They will, because they will have to if they want to keep selling cars in California. Just going to take time to get more styles out there.

GM has the Bolt, and now the Silverado, Ford has the MachE and the Lightning, Dodge is catching up, mostly with Jeep of all brands.

The Jeep wrangler PHEV is the top selling hybrid. The bolt and MachE are pretty great and can be found on the used market with decent miles for an affordable amount. The Lightning is a fantastic truck, better in almost every way that matters than the cyber truck. The Silverado EV is just launching but seems very capable.

Ford is the number 2 EV seller behind Tesla. If you think American manufacturer aren’t producing shit, you’re just not looking.

That would be weird since the company is based in the US.

I think Telo is on the right track, I think they’ll blow away the current ETrucks if/when they make it to market. Specifically in the trades since they’re more affordable and configurable. I could actually see someone buying a fleet of these even over the F150 lightning pro.
