doh, can’t seem to get the long s to work with alt-codes... doh!

When you make a political party for idiots, eventually you become a political party of idiots.

Thoughts from a physicist (who will give correct, but not practical answers):

Sheesh, now you’re going to have to invent a time machine too? How hard are they going to make getting a free donut!

Or another trick - drop a dishwasher tablet in the carafe, and fill it up with boiling water. let it sit for a while, and when you rinse it out it should be shiny as new.

This. I mean honestly, his performance is the weakest of everyone. Not that he’s terrible, but I would imagine there would be lots of other actors that would have done as good or better with the role.  I mean we’re all really watching for Bear anyway, right?

Shh... if you tell people it’s just the courteous thing to do, they’ll ignore it. But if you tell them it’s a ‘hack’ or a ‘trick’ they’ll jump all over it.

Actually, if your device is weight constrained, then aluminum is the better choice. It’s got a much higher heat capacity per unit mass.

Just be aware that season 1 is... not great. They did a big course correction in season 2 and it’s been on a crazy tear since then. There are some good things about season 1, but as a whole you’d probably be better off reading some plot summaries and then starting with season 2.

They’ll just fold as a company, and a new one, say nEvergreen for example, will take it’s place.

Or expanding it even further, using a new platform based on the model Y, they can create a subterranean walking alternative, or SUB-WA-Y

Nah, see the user running this instance hasn’t yet ponied up the money for the next “space” expansion pack yet, we got the end of expansion pre-patch 60 years ago with some preview features, but they haven’t pulled the trigger on actually getting it yet, so they’re just entertaining themselves with extra user-defined…

No, they’ll just recognize that those sounds are the “go fast” sounds, without realizing that they used to be made by the engine, and aren’t just artificial audio cues. Kind of how they recognize this as the “Save” icon, without recognizing what it is.
