With the exception of at large buildings in dense city centers, just about everywhere else, utilities enter a building at just some point on the back, out in the open. This includes utilities that feed alarms and security cameras.
While some places will have systems in place for situations where these outside connections have been severed, like independently operated cameras on an intranet, cellular data backup for alarms, electrical generators, etc., most places don't, so successfully circumventing their security is just a matter of cutting all the cables on the back of their building at the same time, and then being gone before they notice
The little town up north I grew up in had a drone show last year. They're pretty common honestly
Nazis do thrive by spreading misinformation though, and AIs are great at presenting false information in a way that makes it look believable

Maybe part of a Pride thing? I'll have to see if there's any art of Dax in the book
nobody should expect that entitles them to luxury and extravagances by extension.
They're not? I don't know where you got that from. It has nothing to do with the point you claim to be addressing.
It is definitely healthy to be able to take time and actually do nothing though. Like having a cup of tea in the morning, and just sitting and waking up slowly. That's good for the soul
Okay, but, wallpapering your history or civics classroom with Hammurabi's Code is probably one of the coolest things you could do as a teacher
At press time, the feature was reportedly discontinued after the company discovered not a single Tesla owner was a woman.
Damn, the Onion is too good. I was going to make that joke when I saw the headline lol
I don't know if it counts when the Onion is just reporting what definitely actually happened
Post whatever you want! News posts are easy, so there's a lot of them, but anything with local interest fits. These communities just don't get a ton of traffic because Lemmy is so much smaller than Reddit
Starfleet ships basically maneuver like they're weightless massless?, which, mathematically, they probably are. Inertial Dampeners are mostly mentioned in reference to stopping Worf from smashing into all the science stations every time the ship accelerates, but if inertia isn't affecting the ship, they can basically do whatever they want. Even a tiny amount of thrust would be enough to put them in reverse from Full Impulse. Add to this that the ships aren't held together by their superstructures, but by their Structural Integrity Fields, and really, a Starfleet vessel could be constructed in basically any shape. They just look like they have a front and an up because humans like it that way
How do we know that all the alien ships we're seeing for the first time aren't actually upsidedown?
Someone, once again, has the opportunity to do the funniest thing imaginable
There are two kinds of Republicans—billionaires and suckers
He proves he's a sucker, because a real fascist would know never to ask to be proven wrong
I'll spend 15 minutes scouring forums to avoid watching a 5 minute tutorial video. Having an actual written guide is so much more useful

This is a personal creation, so I apologize if the name is already taken.
*1.5oz gin *1oz Amaro Sfumato Rabarbaro *.75oz honey syrup *.5oz lemon juice
Shaken and served with an expressed lemon peel, and a dash of Hummingbird Bitters

Unfortunately, you can't get real Orion Dulac in Michigan, so this is my take on what Mariner would have served Those Old Scientists
- 1.5oz White rum (I used Plantation 3 Star)
- .75oz Cinnamon syrup
- .75oz Lime juice
- .5oz Absinthe (I used what they make at my local distillery, American Fifth)
- .5oz John D. Taylor Velvet Falernum Liqueur
- 1 barspoon Blue curaçao (for colour)
Shake, and double strain. Garnish with a cinnamon stick, and slowly pour in two barspoon of grenadine so that it sinks to the bottom. This could also be swapped for butterfly pea flower syrup, which is purple. I just wanted the grenadine flavor

This is for an upcoming session this Saturday. I've never been the kind of person that's into drawing, but I'm GMing my own PTU campaign, and I hated making maps online lol
I've been practicing for about a week now, and I'm pretty happy with this little map.
The setting is a small cave, complete with giant mushrooms, crystals, and a pond, which served as the improvised "break room," for a couple of miners my players found the skeletons of at the end of the last session.

First cocktail made in my new bar! Just moved, and finally have it set up. Lots of decorating left for the new space though.
This is a basic twist on a Daquiri.
- 3oz Angostura 5 Year Caribbean Rum
- 1.5oz lime juice
- .66oz rich symple syrup (.75oz if you use 1:1)
- 3-4 dashes Angostura aromatic bitters
Shake, double strain, and garnish with a lime wedge.

The ultimate brunch cocktail.
Equal parts gin, orange liqueur, Lillet Blanc, and lemon juice, shaken and served in an absinthe rinsed coupe.
I think this drink alone is enough reason to keep Lillet on hand. American Fifth is my local distillery; I highly recommend their spirits if you get the chance, but any absinthe will do here.

Mostly wanted to post because I feel like I did a really good job on the sugared rim lol
This is one of my favorite cocktails
1.5oz brandy .75oz orange liqueur .75oz lemon juice
Shake, double strain, serve in a glass with a sugared rim, and garnish with a orange twist. I expressed mine.

Maybe a little too meta, but I think we could use Dukat for memes specifically meant to express funny, but bad, opinions

It's been a while, but I got some new glassware, and wanted to try it out. I felt like a Nuclear Daquiri was appropriate for leaded crystal. I tweaked the recipe a bit to my own tastes, I'll denote that below

- .5oz White Rum - Plantation 3 Star (omit for basic recipe)
- .66oz Galliano (Green Chartreuse for basic recipe)
- .75oz Lime Juice
- .33oz Falernum
Shake and double strain, garnish however you like
