I would love to have a small Wikipedia browser that can survive the apocalypse.

E-ink display, mini keyboard and touchpad, multiple ways/ports to transfer info, All wrapped up in a heavy duty equipment case that's able to survive a building collapses and burns in an earthquake, that's shielded from EMP.

It's in the pattern buffer, just tap a button or two, and instant ketchup! Way better than using the replicators.

You ask a bunch of questions about a task in order to convince the client that the task doesn't need to be done at all.

I ask a bunch of questions because I've forgotten half the answers already and am trying to make enough stick that I can make something close enough they don't notice my attention is wandering while they blather.

We are not the same.

First they came for the mice, but I did not speak up, for I was not a mouse.

Respect pronouns and respect who people are, or you just might find yourself ~~in a pattern buffer~~ visiting Bajor.

I mean, I'm not French, but If nearly every single media outlet in France refused to sign their government loyalty pledge, I'd find it interesting.

See, the problem here is you're lumping all of the US in one group, while conveniently ignoring that half of this group is against the use of firearms and is for gun control, and the people who have wet dreams about mowing down "the gays" are the biggest owners of said guns.

Huh. I was just talking about these with some coworkers yesterday. None of them had ever heard of them, and here I thought gun nuts would have more knowledge about the history of firearms.

While playing a trek themed word association game "Bird of Prey" comes up, my wife yells "TWEET TWEET PEW PEW!"

They convinced themselves that every other major government in the world, as well as every single scientist and most other people were lying to them about Covid.

I remember extended family members going on about how it's a hoax as they were dying in the hospital from it

Some people will flip the universe inside out, upside down, and throw it in a blender to make their world view okay.
