new series regulars Mireille Enos, Costa Ronin, Sean Kaufman, Ruby Cruz and Ines Asserson

Glad to see Ruby Cruz getting work. Willow wasn't what all the fans wanted, many of whom had not watched the original with an eye towards how intentionally hokey it was made to be, but it was finding its voice by the end of S1 and didn't deserve to be shoved down the memory hole.

As for the trailer for FAMk season 5...

Also, won't anyone think about the fact that Trump literally makes energy policy based on the fact that he thinks wind turbines are ugly?

Based on the number of anoles, skinks, geckos, and Texas spinys in our yard, I’m guessing that little display was for someone else.

My brother used to catch them and let them bite down on his earlobes.

Weird dude.

I think a big thing is that good prebuilts are now readily available: hot swap, foam layers, PCB stabilizers, CNC aluminum cases, a mounting system more sophisticated than tray mount, decent firmware (often properly released QMK/VIA, but at least VIA), and fun features like lighting or encoders. A late as 2022, this would have been a wish list on an interest check for a $400+ kit; now it’s a baseline to charge three digits for a prebuilt MX board.

There are still many group buys going on at the high end (geek hack basically exists as an IC/GB publishing platform at this point), and a lot of boards are available bare bones, but when a newbie comes along for a recommendation, no one has to feel bad recommending some pre-built that would make a Pok3r look like a joke as a value proposition.

And this, folks, is why they were never not going to spoil the main spoilery part. Sounds like it was well done, so I guess maybe I'll actually see it in the theater.

However, after a weeks in the role, several FEMA officials said they came around to Phillips after seeing his initiative during the January storm response.

“Gregg Phillips is FEMA’s best hope at this moment. I can’t believe I’m saying that,” one high-ranking FEMA official told CNN at the time.

Same, unnamed FEMA official, same.

It's at about 43:00 in the embedded video, and yeah, that's probable, but the question was posed to the panel about what their characters would explore in a hypothetical Legacy show, so unless she's been right on top of it, it feels like a fair assumption for her to have made that they'd be among the leads.

As an aside, I think I would absolutely love hanging out with Marina Sirtis for exactly one day, and I would be utterly exhausted at the idea of spending any longer than that. In her interviews, she is always a delight, but also a lot.

I haven't had any in a while, and I'm not sure if they even carry them anymore, AND the tub was like a million dollars last time I saw one, but Costco had these Caramel Macademia Clusters that just perfectly nailed the ratios and didn't source their chocolate from Hershey (which is a whole other discussion, but even if I'm very American and don't dislike it, it's not always the right fit), and they were basically a diabetes succubus.

Chief Justice has been considered a separate slot for nomination purposes as of the late 19th century, so when he retires or croaks, the job will come open. Sometimes the then-president nominates one of the existing justices and backfills, but it's completely possible, as @radix@lemmy.world says, to directly nominate the new person for chief justice; it's actually pretty common to do so.

Once again, I will mention that "originalism" and "textualism" were a fucking death knell for jurisprudence, which barely withstood Bush et al, to say nothing of a brazen bad actor like Trump. They are the dark side of legal reasoning: quicker easier, more seductive, but once you go down that dark path (with a ritually worshipped constitution that was a nice bit of kit for its time and place but is maddeningly vague and almost impossible to amend), forever will they dominate your destiny.

It's impractical and deeply, inherently regressive to think that a few clever slaveholding provincials had everything figured out forever and ever (see also the almost impossible to amend part), and pretending that it's workable without applying thought and context should be grounds to get someone disbarred.
