Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.

6·1 day agoand a gentrified neighborhood I can’t afford to live in anymore.
Gunshots at 2am and random shed fires should make quick work of that problem. I hear those have a way of lowering property value.
Leaving a few broken down vehicles in your front yard is a more legal way, I guess.
I mean, he was the head of the company that wanted to be making them, of course he predicted they’d be everywhere and tiny.

THE POLICE PROBLEM@lemmy.world•Why do ICE/fake cops need silencers? (Los Angeles)English
1·3 days agoWell, the ones I have used certainly do, since they blocked the iron sights.
In general though, it may have an impact on distance targets, but for 20yds and under? Not noticeably.
Someone who shoots in competitions likely has a much better/thorough/accurate answer than I do, though.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it common for family members to spy on each other's sexual behavior to find evidence of "degeneracy"? Or did I grow up in hell?English
33·5 days ago“God told me to do it.”
The first time I heard that as a teenager, I made sure nobody ever felt comfortable saying it around me again.
Some mild stripping, knocked over glassware, and “speaking in tongues” later, sorry god made me do it.

Europe@lemmy.ml•FSB says foils terrorist attack against top Russian officialEnglish
12·5 days agoLmao 3 days is “arisen from the dead” if you’re terminally online I guess, and honestly I have no idea if I’ve ever commented on your shit before.
Personally I’m just confused as to how you construed my comment as some kind of personal attack?
terminally online…

Europe@lemmy.ml•FSB says foils terrorist attack against top Russian officialEnglish
23·5 days agoOne man’s terrorist is another man’s war hero/freedom fighter.
Also I would absolutely expect to read this exact article with a picture of a 10 year old girl whose “terrorist plot” included drawing a rainbow in school in a letter asking Russian officials to stop trying to decimate the Russian population through conscription.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is capitalism or consumerism at fault?English
172·5 days ago“are corporations whose sole purpose is to extract as much money from the masses as possible with no thoughts to anything else up to and including destroying the house it occupies in order to maximize profits to blame for the world around us? Or is it those dirty fucking people with all their bad gross nasty purchasing of the things the corporation shoves down their throats?”
I’m sorry but did a CEO write this?

Android@lemdro.id•Tablet market stalls because there’s not much new to buyEnglish
3·8 days agoI’d love to be able to repurpose my old kindles. I have 3 of them that have been gifted over the years and another two that I could probably just ask for since family members have newer ones.
Ideally I just want to have a simple ebook reader and nothing else for at least two of them.
The only issue is from the (admittedly small) searching I’ve done, they aren’t easy to root or install custom roms due to the software version or how new they are. I’ll admit I don’t exactly know what I’m even looking for.
I’d rather reuse things I already have than buy a new tablet just to read books on, especially since it seems like they’re just overpriced generic crap that all looks and mostly feels the same.

191·10 days agoUncaring?
You really think they don’t care how they ruin people’s lives?
Quite the contrary. They relish in the suffering. The cruelty, as always, is the point.
Fuck them sideways with a Guillotine.
Having ridden in Ye Olde Wagons before, this is actually what you should do.
Get out, unload whatever weight you can, and make the wagon as light as possible, then you try to get it out by unburying the wheels and putting something hard for them to roll on.
we had 2x10 boards (and a few small 2x4 chunks) in the wagon and shovels, as the route we were using was through cow pastures and corn fields.

5·10 days agoDamn, you’ve got the shameless doublethink down.
Honestly I can almost hear most of my family saying these exact words.





It’s the difference between a claw and an articulated prosthetic hand.
The claw is better than nothing
The moving hand is much nicer, while still not being perfect.
Not the best metaphor, but hopefully gets my point across?
I’m very slowly learning ASL and signing is different than spoken English. Not everything gets signed, and it’s often much quicker to sign back and forth than speak if two hearing people are fluent.
