Partisanship is a cancer. Inaction is a choice.

Singular they. Or whatever you like, I won't take offence.Proud member of the Banned By Tesseract Club.

  • People who speak English as a second language: how confusing is it that nouns are not gendered?

    Jump

  • Try Finnish or Hungarian, even their pronouns are genderless.

  • Why did communism always turn into a kind of dictatorship?

  • Géza Hofi was one of the greatest comedians in Hungarian history. He was active under and very outspoken about the failures of the ruling communist party. One of his most memorable performances was "How many pigs will be born?" (video, unfortunately without subtitles).

    Party officials, wearing nice brown trench coats, visit old man Joe's farm."Comrade Joseph, how many pigs will be born?""I don't know.""Shut your mouth, peasant, and give me the number.""What's the plan?""14.""Then it'll be 14. Have you told the swine? Better that you talk to her, since you're both on the same level."

    (the story goes on, but I don't want to translate the entire thing)

  • You've been given the power to remove anyone, who was alive before you were born, from the timeline. How do you use this power without inadvertently making it so you were never born?

    Jump

  • That's just sophistry. You can't kill people who never existed in the first place.

  • Ah yes, the holy trinity:

    You have one (1) free teleportation that must be used within the next 24 hours or it disappears forever. Do you use it? Where do you go?

  • So, Sweden?

  • How worried should US people be about "tariffs"? Should I invest in upgrading my equipment ASAP?

    Jump

  • The tariffs will have to be paid by someone, and distributors will not take a hit on account of the idiot pumpkin, so it will be shifted to the end user.

    Right now is a pretty good time to upgrade. Both Intel and AMD have shown their hands in the CPU market and I can personally attest to the performance of AMD's X3D CPUs. Older models with the AM4 socket will become cheaper, and AM4 motherboards are plentiful.

  • I'm cool with the weed, but single-use vapes is where I draw the line.

  • Losing Pulaski was almost as bad as losing Dr. Janet Fraiser

    Jump

  • Even worse is that there have been several episodes with that message. Many of the Geordi-focused episodes, and the woman who couldn't live in normal gravity in DS9.

  • A heavy barrel falls on Worf and damages his spinal chord, resulting in paralysis from the neck down. He wants to die because being paralyzed and being a burden brings him great mental agony. He asks Riker to kill him. Crusher can't reconcile her own feelings with those of Worf and his values as a klingon and wants to force him to live as a cripple.

    Other doctor (forgot the name) shows up later who proposes a risky procedure to artificially grow a spinal column and replace it completely, but which may end up killing Worf. Crusher once again bitches about how Worf could live a happy, fulfilling life as a quadriplegic (by her stupid humie standards), but is overruled and ordered to assist. The procedure is a close call, but ultimately successful.

    Crusher then has the fucking audacity to call the other doctor dangerous.

     

    Basically I wanted her to take a long walk out an open airlock then have Picard reverse course and later apologize to Geordi for causing an in-flight human ingestion. She is not fit to be a physician if she can't reconcile her views with another culture for the benefit of her patient. Great episode overall, but as always, I wish there had been some fallout later.

  • Nice strawman, bro. I never said a damn thing about screen readers or translators, good or bad. And yes, I've read and filled out the entire survey. It doesn't become a good survey just because it's biased towards your personal views.

  • Nice assumption, dingus. I filled out the survey (it's a terribly written survey) and sent it in before even writing that comment.

  • My question is, who asked?

    I have many opinions about machine learning and its current position in technology, but expressed none of it in the comment. In case you missed it, the point I was trying to make is that this is a bullshit survey with obviously loaded questions and foregone conclusions, uninterested in gathering impartial feedback or addressing concerns.
