Do the individual photons slow down? No. But those photons get absorbed by atoms along the way and then a new photon of light is emitted (nearly, but not literally, instantly) which then continues along it’s merry way at C until it encounters another atom. What slows down is the net speed of transport through a given medium.

ahh yes, as opposed to the forced scenes where all the boys group up for boy power

I see someone finally made a cafeteria table for Commander Riker.

However, a report from the Hollywood Reporter revealed that the leak didn’t come from within Paramount but from a hacker from PeggleCrew—the same troupe behind an infamous 2016 cyberattack on the hosting website FossHub.

I’m guessing the crime is how they got the movie.

According to the publication, police discovered that the leaker gained unauthorized remote access to the server on which the animated film was stored, leading him to allegedly download and upload clips of the film online.

This happened in Singapore I guess, but assuming they have similar laws to the US then this would be unlawful access of a computer system.

“conversations with letters of the alphabet” hahahah fair. But also like, in their defence, you would assume that someone being placed in command of the flagship of the Federation would have been thoroughly vetted before hand wouldn’t you?

I’d argue that not knowing Picard very well gave them no reason to question him either.

I hope they bring some vibe coded, 3d-printed anti-air defense missiles with them!

Naw he’s just the ElectroBOOM of computers. Intentionally does shit wrong to show people how not to do things.

I’ve yet to play EF2. Skippable in your opinion?

I quite liked how they added to the lore of the world without completely turning things upside down. Just some more fun with

I was a big fan of Telltale games and this felt like a spiritual successor to them.

Have you played Elite Force recently? It was a fun romp through a Trek ship museum, and had the benefit of voice acting from the cast, but I didn’t enjoy it as much recently as I did when I was a kid and it makes me sad.

Yeah, it’s that consumer label that confuses me. Like, I doubt too many businesses are buying $54 USD Netgear WAPs, and their language specifically included SoHo stuff iirc.

I’m curious about standalone WAPs, not existing all-in-ones put into WAP mode. I’m guessing they just don’t fall under the “consumer” umbrella even though they are pretty cheap (this netgear is $54 USD on amazon)

Did anybody ever confirm if standalone wireless access points are subject to this weird FCC ban thing? Because, like, you can make your own router out of an old computer.

Oh, man, those are both FANTASTIC, I’m really glad you got to play them. Control introduced me to the entire “weird fiction” genre and now I’m hooked. And Titanfall 2 is just a masterpiece of storytelling and game design. Just as you think you’re getting bored with a mechanic they throw in something new.

if you don’t collect the free games then it’s like youre losing the money you would have spent! (/s)

The replicator kind of gives the answer when Troi asks: it has been programmed to have all food items provide appropriate nutritional content. It’s why there’s still a tradition of people cooking real food even though they have replicators. A few examples would be Pike, Sisko and his dad, and O’Brien’s mom. Also most or all of the Maquis.

I haven’t used TrueNAS but from what I’m reading it has an option to import existing pools. If you have spare SSD I would yank your windows drive out of the system and try installing Proxmox on the spare drive first. There’s a truenas installation script on that community page I linked in my other post, it says to follow this discussion after it runs. That might be a good starting point.

I hope that barracuda was shucked from a Seagate Expansion lol (that’s where I got all of my barracudas).
