That’s what keeping all that latinum in your second stomach does to you.

Good thing he got rid of all that worthless gold though. That stuff is toxic.

I would say it’s a war against knowledge and critical thinking. Those two things threaten their control and reasoning. Why else fear books or competing ideologies?

It’s one thing for the deer to see headlights coming at it. It’s another for it to know what it means and what it should do.

Is it weird that I still want to go for my PhD despite all the feedback about the process? I don’t think I’ve ever met a PhD or candidate that’s enthusiastically said “do it!”

Ngl if it weren’t for my soul crushing student loan debt, I’d do this. Not to qualify for jobs or gloat, I just love learning.

I hope to start a PhD before 40 but the finances and family life aren’t looking too promising.

I was going to joke and say: that’s like, what, warp 0.0001.

In the Star Trek universe, warp factors are a way to measure faster-than-light travel. The speed of light is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second (km/s). To convert your given speed of 32,000 km/hr into a warp factor, we need to use the formula that relates warp factor to the speed of light:

v = c * (w^(10/3))

where:

•	v is the speed in multiples of the speed of light (c),
•	w is the warp factor.

First, convert 32,000 km/hr into kilometers per second (km/s):

32,000 km/hr = 32,000 / 3,600 km/s ≈ 8.89 km/s

Now, find the warp factor using the speed of light:

w = (v / c)^(1 / (10/3))

w = (8.89 km/s / 299,792 km/s)^(1 / (10/3))

Calculate the fraction inside the parentheses:

8.89 / 299,792 ≈ 0.00002967

Now raise this to the power of 3/10:

0.00002967^(3/10) ≈ 0.000657

So, approximately:

w ≈ 0.000657

Therefore, a speed of 32,000 km/hr corresponds to a very low warp factor, approximately Warp 0.000657 in the Star Trek scale.

Do I have a slot for that?

I recently started playing Diablo 4. I’ve never bought DLC or cosmetics but I recall the horse armor uproar. My shock when some of these cosmetics are $20 for mount or town portal…what?!

I was wondering how they’d manage to sell them without getting slammed by FDA and law enforcement. Of course it doesn’t contain the real deal! I’d guess you’re right about the mushroom strain, or at least some contamination occurred.

Picard! Why are you so damn relatable?

I wonder how odd that would feel in my hands today. I remember being blown away by it when I unpacked the OG Xbox.

Woohoo! I came so so close to buying Callisto on sale the other day.

A good mall trip as a kid was Toysrus, KB Toys, Spencer’s, Tower Records/Coconuts/Sam Goody, Imaginarium or Marbles.

Then wash it down with Rainforest Cafe or Sakura Japan.

And Marbles! Man, we shopped at the same stores lol

Wait. It’s hosted on a Russian site or that’s your system language?

I refuse to look myself and end up on a CIA list lol

ChatGPT+ has been a revelation. We’ll see what happens with iOS 18 too.

Q292640261046a: the IRL planet from Harold Halibut

Consider it morbid curiosity but I’d be curious what he considers okay. At the same time, I don’t wanna know.

They’ve got a really active and dedicated community on discord. I returned mine before this story broke for unrelated reasons but it really is a neat little device that fits a very specific niche. Outside of that bubble though, almost no one gets it and that’s their biggest problem.

…I really need to get tested for ADHD. This community has single-handedly convinced me.

It’s always loss.
