I’m only bribing guys because the other bastard is bribing guys. I can’t let the bribery gap get too large, or they will be coming for my vital fluids next!

That waste heat is very humid, which causes corrosion and mold issues.

I think Microsoft may be overdrawn on that particular credit line.

I had assumed this was the case from minute one.

It would be nice if this served as a pointed lesson to stop putting useless, unwanted, invasive features and AI into things. Or at least to make them work.

Bread and circuses. It’s not complicated.

This is consistent with his statements about most of his campaign positions.

You’re assuming that they know the first damn thing about their strongly held lifelong beliefs about the nature of reality.

If my credit card debt vanished, it would measurably improve the quality of the rest of my life. I’m not gonna just pile the debt back up, and not having to make the payments would free up money I could save for retirement or emergency.

If everything is a national emergency, nothing is.

I am appalled at how well “flood the zone” and “move fast and break things” works to destroy a nation. If sanity ever returns, the response to either action needs to be the death penalty. I don’t know how to properly write a law for that, but it is clear to me that any lesser response will only cause the bastard to back up, and try again.

You may be right, I can’t say. I didn’t pay much attention to the campaign, because my vote was decided as soon as Trump got the nomination.

My vote was 99% decided before that. I’ve seen one GOP candidate that I was open to the possibility of voting for, but he didn’t win the nomination, and since Obama was our candidate that year, it wouldn’t have mattered if he did.

Yea, ICE is his own private army.

A consideration, certainly. It might be because the actor passed?

Nog made Captain in STO. It’s not all cannon, but I like some of it better than actual cannon.

I voted for her, but if she knew how to mobilize anyone, we wouldn’t have nazis running the country.

Yea, I suddenly started getting that too.

Reddit has seriously gone to shit lately, but it’s got a few communities that aren’t present here. Or if they are, I haven’t found them.

Don’t ask.

Which is the rank he held at the end of DS9, I believe.

I would like to think he made captain, but we didn’t see it.
