Sounds about right.

I own several of these things and have used them for years in hot or cold weather, as well as working with hundreds of people who use them in the same manner. I have never, ever heard them referred to as a “neck gaiter” Not even once.  Where did you come up with that term?

I had the same take on this show. It seems conflicted. First, it is a show that is for a younger audience. That’s obvious. Yet they have not just one, but two of the “good guys” straight up murder two of the bad guys. You can’t forget the little brother at the end just plowing into icicle as a stupid punchline.

Ok, so it takes 30 min. Seems pretty small amount of time to do a software update on a critical system like in a 747. I would think that kind of thing wouldn’t be able to be completed in less time than it takes to load the plane with passengers.

Internet. The read speed over it’s capacity. That’s why I doubled the time for spin up and spin down time. I couldn’t remember the exact time and the read speed of a floppy. I can’t rely on my perception of time from the past because as I get older time accelerates.  

Best I can calculate is that you could read an entire floppy disk in about 30 seconds. Even if it was a minute, and you added spin up and down time and time to swap the disk, what... 10 minutes to do the complete 8-disk install... seems pretty reasonable to me.  I would rather they take a bit more time actually,

I think I still have them somewhere.  

I remember a few years ago calculating what it would take to put the current (at the time) version of windows on floppies. I figured it would take a pallet 2ft high worth of floppies. Bigger if you wanted it on 5-1/4in.

Ahhhh... the good old days. When it would take a weekend to model a handful of frames in 3D.

“It also sounds horribly inefficient, as while some systems may only require one floppy disk of updates, others could require as many as eight floppy disks.”

I would pay good money to see that.

Well she couldn't do worse than Affleck.

Nice.  Who is playing Bruce Wayne/Batman?

No.

Wayne or Kent?

Who?

Bin the whole thing and start over in the original timeline set somewhere after the events of voyager or even after Picard. Maybe long after Picard... Just a fresh start. But also, maybe get back to the original ideals of Start Trek. No conflict in Starfleet. The idea originally was to give hope that the human

Who is he playing in The Batman?
