This is a very neat idea, since the probability that we’ll be able to easily understand any message written and sent by an alien intelligence is unlikely. However, therein is the problem, this wasn’t written by an alien intelligence. It was written by a human. Even if that human tried to encode it in a novel fashion,…

This sounds horrible. You know how everyone is in their own bubble now? Just wait until you can customize your bubble and strictly enforce it.

I don’t think he necessarily means just from Lower Decks. I got the impression there are other episodes of the season with other cameos, which includes Kirk.

But only Jack could go down into the water, Rose would have to stay safe on a large plank of wood at the surface.

I mean, that’s probably what he does on Tuesday, too. What does he actually do for any of his so-called jobs? He’s not sitting at a computer hammering out code. He’s not on the Tesla factory floor gluing panels together. He’s either tweeting, e-mailing, or talking to reporters. That’s his “job” and so he does that all…

This would work, but I’m not sure it satisfies the question:

Armageddon was mindless.

They won’t move the park, but they could stop investing in it, and turn those investments elsewhere.

Legoland was total crap when I went there 6 years ago. What does SeaWorld offer now that it’s gotten rid of most or all of its animals?

The waste can mostly go where it is currently going. The storages on site are working. Yes, they need to be maintained, but the amount of space they take up is not that large.

Netflix is just determined to squeeze every last drop of water from that stone. But in doing so, they are writing the chapter of their own demise.

We do sub to all of them, as long as we can share passwords.

Our house originally had a glass door. But either the way the bathroom was designed or the placement of the bathroom in the middle of the house meant that even leaving our fan running all day, the shower stall was always musty and mold would grow if we weren’t constantly vigilant. On top of that, the seal at the…

And while Piggly Wiggly surely dominated in the 80s and 90s, I doubt it’s that popular any more...though I suppose out in the rural areas it might still reign supreme. Otherwise, as much as I hate to say it, Wal-Mart probably wins, followed by Pick’N’Save. Festival foods is also fairly prevalent around the state, and…

I’m in Wisconsin, but our two language options in school were Spanish and German. I took German and am still learning German to this day, using Duolingo, now.

I think part of the problem is that what you call a muscle knot and what someone else calls a muscle knot may be two different things. My wife gets them, and I can usually feel where they are and rub them. I get things I tend to call muscle knots, very localized pain in a muscle...but I can only sometimes actually…

There are some examples of people with guns stopping shooters...but there are far more stories where people with guns either didn’t stop or became a cause for concern when the police showed up.

Man, I really don’t get cruises.

The biggest stumbling blocks are going to be right-of-way issues. They need to buy or lease the land these tunnels/tracks run on (under?) all the way...and obviously they need to build the tracks/tunnels...and probably an emergency access road in case this thing breaks down somewhere in the middle of nowhere.

My completely uninformed guess is that it logs driving habits, as well as has an RFID/GPS tag in it to let the rental car company’s system know where it is parked, how much fuel it has, how many miles are on it, when the next oil change is, etc. It’s an all-purpose car information transceiver that is supposed to be…
