Too heavy and it becomes impractical to maneuver out of the water. You need a bigger boat and crane to launch it, a bigger truck to move it around on land, and so on. It’s possible that an all-steel (or more likely, all-titanium) design of this size couldn’t be handled by the class of tender surface vessels that the…

They knew exactly what they were saying.

It’s weirder than that (but not better). They found the bomb, but it hit so hard and broke up on impact that they just decided to leave the more deeply buried pieces in the field, since digging them up would have been too hard.

I’ve never seen this speech before.  I’ve just read it.  And I have no idea what particular cause Mr. America is talking about here.  Is he talking about some sort of Civil War superhero registration?  Mutant rights?  Whether it is moral to go back in time and kill baby Hitler?  I don’t know and I can’t tell.  Maybe…

The legalities of the situation are fascinating, particularly to commercial drone operators.

Don’t look at the scores of movie critics. Read the review. If you know *why* a particular review liked or didn’t like a movie, you can usually figure out whether or not you would, no matter whether or not you agree.

The Ferengi were an alien race on Star Trek: The Next Generation. When first introduced, they were shown to have a strongly patriarchal society where women were property, and their pattern of speech was to refer to “females” with strong derision and scorn. Later depictions changed and expanded this somewhat, but it…

Despite the photo in the article and some of the confusing wording, this isn’t a private jet. It is a regional/commuter airline operating as a charter service with an all first class cabin layout.

Just two results over and they could have wound up with the Warhammer 40K inquisition symbol instead.

I was *into* Babylon 5. I found the pilot in when it was in syndication and you had to figure out when it aired by poring through the newspaper listings. When I went to college, we would meet up to watch it in the lounge. It was groundbreaking, in both technical and storytelling terms.

Would furries but for trees be barkies?

It’s worth adding that the references to gloves and the dogs in the video are about her reluctance to give the dogs their medication, because it has a warning that pregnant women should not handle it.

Purely anecdotal, but I spent over an hour yesterday remotely troubleshooting my parent’s HP OfficeJet 200. At one point, I got an error saying that the drivers were not correctly signed.

I didn’t phrase that quite right.

I would posit that he doesn’t mean that he has literally never heard nor seen a reference to Tetris, anywhere.

In this case, the Collector’s Edition was a GameStop exclusive, so it was pre-order from them or find it on the secondary market.

So, it’s done, and DeSantis was practically chortling with glee at how he is now ... what?

If we’re going to talk about bad security protocols, can we talk about how, in order to use the password in First Contact, Picard has to say it out loud in front of several other people?  That seems like a very poor security design.

I need one more thing to live and let live.

It’s worth mentioning something with regards to The Brown Bunny.
