When you require someone to go up with some text that satisfies all sorts of stupid and random rules on dozens or hundreds of sites (where you might create an account to ask one question or make one post) people are going to make simple ones.
I'd rather see sites move to something like what we have here where you don't need a password....

If at work, pick up whatever telephone or other semi-permanent electric device may reside on your desk.
It should have a UL number, a U.S. Patent number(s), and/or a manufacturer's Product Number.
Pick the one you like, and use it for a password.
You won't have to worry about some snoop finding your password on a post-it note, and who the hell thinks of those objects on your desk, anyway? And if so, which number, which item?
You want to spice it up? Put your initials or other data you'll remember, either before or after those desk-object numbers. Never make a note of that or write it down, either.
Long as they don't change out your phone or electric pencil sharpener, desk radio or whatever, you're good to go.
At home? Same thing. Just use some numbers off the back of a TV remote or such.

There's no actual energy savings from studies of it. It seems to be a wash now. IIRC, the Germans started doing it 100 years ago or better, and it did save gas for gas lighting.
Our betters here decided to adopt it. But with modern energy usage patterns, there isn't any significant energy savings. I think it works out that some areas might use less, but others use more and it's a wash.

Really, I saw him as being on his knees with his face aimed directly at a certain half white/half black person's crotch, ready to do a BJ.
Every time the dems bitched about something, he apologized on cue.
It didn't make any damn difference what the criticism was. It was like he couldn't wait to grovel.

8 and green
You have to verify 8 is blue on the back, and that the number on the green card isn't even. The other two cards can't make the statement false.

In one of the first episodes they walk by some crazy guy in a park arguing for communism.
Later they "slide" and he is the local commissar.
I only watched the first season or two but I remember that being pretty interesting.

Just goes to show how mentally ill the left is. I remember reading multiple stories from leftists who went to Cuba and noted how poor the people were, yet were sooooo happy (allegedly). Then we recently saw a number of the same type of ***holes saying they hope to see Cuba before "we ruin it".
I suspect if someone near me said that I would probably be trying to choke the life out of them before I knew what I was doing.

Your humble Postal Match organizer and commenter, found himself quoted by no less than Uncle Remus at the Woodpile Report.
I'd originally posted the comment at Gerard Van Der Leun's "American Digest". Gerard recognized the Woodpile Repot quote, here at this link: http://tinyurl.com/h42cwss
Gotta do it that way, 'cause Woodpile Report doesn't isolate URLs to specific entries.
The Woodpile spotlighted a few key passages from my longer comment on this American Digest post on the Michael Moore statement.

And if you need to go hand to hand, you should have sent Klingons anyway.
Except that we see phasers routinely don't vaporize targets. Vaporization only happens on the highest output. And a couple of crew-served weapons and a light mortar would have slaughtered the Jem-Hadar. We've never seen a portable replicator used anywhere, so why assume that they have it? More likely the Federation are just idiots who got thousands of their own people slaughtered needlessly.

If you're in the Federation you're code pretty much requires you to start on stun and work your way through the settings until something works. Which, okay, yes it's stupid.
Didn't the Jem-Hadar have individual cloaking devices? I'm not sure what good a mortar does against an enemy you literally can't locate until he's on top of you.
I assume they have portable replicators because they used something similar on the mines they used to block the wormhole (cloaked and self-replicating, conservation of energy and matter be damned). Granted it's a standard Star Trek problem of tech does what the writers want when they want it and not other times (beaming through shields is another example)

I just realized this. By changing the time at 2AM both at the start and end of DST, you lose the 2-3AM hour once each cycle and get an extra 1 - 2AM hour.
To do it right, you should do the fall back at 3AM. You would thus get and extra 2-3AM hour which would make up for the lost 2 - 3AM before.
By doing it both at 2AM, you never gain the lost 2-3AM hour.

A clip from the battle. Even in the heat of battle they weren't disintegrating the enemy.
https://youtu.be/bIZ3EuvTXFc
Didn't the Jem-Hadar have individual cloaking devices? I'm not sure what good a mortar does against an enemy you literally can't locate until he's on top of you.
They knew that the enemy had an encampment. They knew the route the enemy was taking to attack them. Those are two good targets for a mortar. Once the Jem-Hadar start to decloak to attack, you can start firing at their positions or the chokepoint that they're going through.
I assume they have portable replicators because they used something similar on the mines they used to block the wormhole (cloaked and self-replicating, conservation of energy and matter be damned). Granted it's a standard Star Trek problem of tech does what the writers want when they want it and not other times (beaming through shields is another example)
Posted by: Methos at November 06, 2016 12:06 AM (3Liv/)
Starship technology rigged up on the fly doesn't mean that they have it Federation-wide. And I always assumed that the mines had someway of slowly replenishing the raw material required for replication, which means that over time a few mines would rebuild the entire minefield.
Of course, why the Dominion didn't simply fly ships, or even unmanned vessels, through until the minefield was exhausted is another question.

Posted by: Blanco Basura at November 06, 2016 12:16 AM (IcT7t
Er, they don't that I know of so maybe they can't? In theory the replicator is like a transporter but a ship has storage of any elements it might need that the replicator takes and assembles into whatever thing you're looking for.
Which kind of makes the cloaking self replicating space mines make not a lick of sense.
But maybe there's something about gold-pressed latinum that prevents replicators from assembling it efficiently?

It can't replicate things with too much "quantum complexity" (techno babble). Transporters, however can transport these highly complex things.
The idea is the transporter just takes a raw object and moves it, but the replicator has to assemble something based on stored memory of the pattern.
They say living things, "latinum" and something else are "too complex" to replicate.

Eureka was not only a good show consistently through its entire run, but had one of the best final episodes of any series I've ever seen. A real salute to the show, its characters, and actors. The crossovers with Warehouse 13 were fun, too.
Sliders, someone mentioned, started out pretty good, and then season by season, then episode by episode, it got worse until it really stank and I think we gave up on it before the end. Especially replacing cast members one by one until none of the originals remained. I though only Brits did that.

Limited special effects budget?
Alternatively, the phasors had limited energy so you'd use the lowest effective setting when you're being overrun as...well I don't know how you recharge them.
Or, I seem to recall some aliens were so tough that even on maximum, a phasor wouldn't kill, much less vaporize them, but I don't recall is the Jem-Hadar were one of those.
===
I guess a mortar would be useful in that circumstance, but then the question becomes whether the Federation would ever use such a thing? If you need to blow the crap out of something, that's what photon torpedoes are for. If you're sending an away team, they're really supposed to be talking their way through most anything.
Or put another way, would a mortar be effective against the Borg? The only reason they built the Defiant was as a response to the Borg. They'd tangled with the Klingons over the years, but their exploration/family/cruise ship design doctrine had gotten them through all that.
==
I think replicators were small enough to work an a Runabout, but I guess they wouldn't work even if you could make one handheld unless it could grab material from your local environment.
I don't know why the Dominion was dissuaded from attacking the minefield and they didn't have any issue with suiciding Jem-Hadar at other points.
Maybe there was some issue with explosions in proximity to the wormhole destabiling it? It's been a while since I saw those episodes.

And I can't believe I'm bothering to speculate and think about make believe technology. :-) I get amazed at the heated arguments people can get into over make believe fantasy.
The energy required for replicators would be enormous. If you're taking "bulk matter" and doing conversion and rearranging as it said, you have to handle something that could contain the mc^2 energy, which would be YUGE.
For example, the Sun, our ol' pal Sol is spewing about 4.25 million metric tonnes of mass via E/c^2.
Star Trek tech requires and energy source on the order of the solar output. That kind of energy must be contained and handled safely.

Maybe that varies by series, but it'd obviously be far easier if your bin can hold some generic particle and you only have to supply the extra energy for various nuclei.

I'm pretty sure everyone in the federation gets replicator rations. There's a big assumption In Star Trek that if everyone's needs are met without effort, at least some people will still bother to work or otherwise do stuff. It's the price of admission.

Down South (Galveston Island) is at present, hosting a motorcycle rally now said to rival Sturgis itself in total attendance. Makes sense, in that Galveston isn't a "beyond the wild horizon" ride for many, while Sturgis seems to be an epic journey to nearly all who attend.
The Lone Star Rally, in Galveston. They say the three day weekend will see over 400k bikes having rolled through the Island. I believe 'em.
Put your ear up to the USB port, and you can probably hear
But hey. Good eye candy abounds, both two wheeled n' two legged.
Makes for a good time to set a spell, bourbon and cigar to hand, and just watch n' smile.
And I dare say most of the crowd would be Morons or 'Ettes, were they to know about this world between worlds.
Oh, and sold about 400 rounds of .416 Barnes "X" and solid copper projectiles today. Had taken them in from an estate sale some years back, and finally found a gent who knew their worth, and paid it. Stuff was bought a decade ago for a .416 Rigby, but it'll be stuffed into freshly prepped cases for a .416 Barrett.
In other words, it went to a very good home.
So, I can afford an airline bottle of Val-U-Rite, at least once more.
Hope all is well in the Hillbilly Kingdom?

First Contact had a scene where they killed some Borg with tommy guns on the holodeck, with the safeties off, while they wer in Zefram Cochran's timeframe, so that's probably the earliest they were used in Trek chronology.

What can possibly happen in 46 hours? Not much.
The trend lines are currently all going Trump's way. Their arc seems to be that he will peak on election day -- perfect timing.
It would take the November Surprise to end all November Surprises to reverse the trend lines. And I'm just not seeing it. Personally, I think it's too late. The Dems are just out of ammo. They would have launched their final salvo way back on Wednesday or Thursday if they had one. A final salvo on the Sunday before the election, with what will be at the time 36 hours or less to go? That;'s way too late -- and the Dem strategists of course know that.
In retrospect, I think they were banking on the sexual harassment charges and the "paid as little taxes as possible" speculation to sink him. THose WERE their October Surprises.
Imagine the Dems' shock when both attacks just fizzled.

hellofa job by whoever did the security for the event. If he could sneak that in, he could most likely sneak a gun in. At least a 3d printed plastic gun (assuming he had to go through a magnetometer, which I have no idea is the case or not)

I don't usually "push" my stuff more than one mention, if that, but Mindful Webworkshop, #13, the "Election 2016" episode, is, obviously, kind-of "time sensitive," so I'll mention it again - link in nic to page on my website. Combination of sorta-clever-ish political bits, interrupted by some old, stale political-ish songs. It are what it am. Feel free to link, like, and spread the word... even if you don't like it. My vanity needs the hits.
And if you missed it, the previous episode's "Beast with Four Heads" cartoon, at about 10:45 in the vid, is an amusing shaggy Gothic horror story. (Copy link from nic, substitute 12 for 13 - it's a URL dexterity test.)

Length is always better, but case and numerics make it even more difficult, in that they expand the character set that must be 'searched'. Special characters make it even harder. 'SockIt2Me%' is considerably more difficult to get at than 'sockittome'

Nope -- candidates can't and don't campaign on election day itself, and most people vote in the morning before any news can effect them. Could there conceivably be people out there still undecided at 5pm on Tuesday November 8 desperately refreshing news Web sites looking for some last minute scandal to sway their vote one way or the other? Doubtful.

The camera is a 1st person view of a mute person the entire time, so basically an action video game. It was inspired more by the game Half-Life than any movie. I would not have recommended this movie in the theaters for the amount of shaking, but neither would I recommend the worst offenders of the Bourne series. The small screen is better for this. Although they used Go-pros, the lighting did not suffer too much.
Most of the special effects occur on the set. The stunt work is superb, maybe comparable with John Wick. It is excessively violent throughout, but the tone is never dark.
The actor from District 9, Sharlto Copley plays several characters, as part of the sci-fi plot. He is very funny and watchable throughout.

Limited special effects budget?
I'm assuming that what we see is what actually happens. If you start saying, "Oh the special effects just don't show it" then any debate is pointless.
Alternatively, the phasors had limited energy so you'd use the lowest effective setting when you're being overrun as...well I don't know how you recharge them.
We're going far afield, but this kind of proves my point: why the hell, in the midst of a brutal war for survival, are they sending Starfleet personnel down with only these phasers?
Or, I seem to recall some aliens were so tough that even on maximum, a phasor wouldn't kill, much less vaporize them, but I don't recall is the Jem-Hadar were one of those.
If they're facing enemies that are too tough for their normal phasers, it would make sense to have heavier weaponry, would it not? Of course, the issue is less about the power of the weapons and more that they aren't mass casualty producing weapons that a crew-served machine gun would be.
I guess a mortar would be useful in that circumstance, but then the question becomes whether the Federation would ever use such a thing? If you need to blow the crap out of something, that's what photon torpedoes are for. If you're sending an away team, they're really supposed to be talking their way through most anything.
The Federation has fought, since TNG started, wars against the Cardassians, Klingons, and the Dominion. Not to mention Borg incursions. We've seen plenty of situations where heavier firepower would have benefitted the Federation. Hell, the Klingons had mortars when they were assaulting a Federation colony in DS9.
Or put another way, would a mortar be effective against the Borg? The only reason they built the Defiant was as a response to the Borg. They'd tangled with the Klingons over the years, but their exploration/family/cruise ship design doctrine had gotten them through all that.
I have a theory about the whole cruiseship design thing for another ONT. But remember that it's relatively new. Older Starfleet was basically warships, not luxury-liners. And while a mortar may not be useful against the Borg, it might be very useful for a variety of other combat situations that away teams could find themselves on. Or even ignoring mortars, you still have things like crew-served weapons which should be part of a security team's arsenal.
I think replicators were small enough to work an a Runabout, but I guess they wouldn't work even if you could make one handheld unless it could grab material from your local environment.
Yeah, but runabout replicators seem to be just for food and basic stuff. Survival for a few days or weeks for a small crew.

There's lawyers, it's their nature, in your area who will litigate your case [especially since you're female [force multiplier]...)...for a percentage of your settlement.
Call around and USE THE SYSTEM.....Make the fuckers pay. 9 outta 10 times, they'll settle......but at least you made em sweat and got (some) pay outta of the fuckedup situation.
Does that square the situation? Nope, but extractin something from these fucks, (using Their Systems at that)......is wayyyy BETTER than just taking it.
