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.

Just don't ask who what's in the pattern buffer.

  • Supposed to be. But I woke up and decided I didn't want to go in.

    Supposedly I'm giving up my holiday pay tomorrow but if I read my hiring packet correctly, their version of "holiday pay" is "well give you an hour of PTO for the day instead of the usual 3 minutes"

  • Russia: Valdai Residents Report No Signs of Claimed Ukrainian Drone Attack on Putin Residence

    Jump

  • Genuine question to anyone with an answer: why the FUCK would ANYONE think drone-bombing the ABSOLUTE SHIT out of his residence would be a bad thing?

    If anything, this just makes them look even weaker than usual. "we can't keep this small country that we said would fold in 72 hours from making large-scale attacks against our country's leadership" isn't a great look unless you want to look pathetic.

    I'm confused as to why they're saying this like it's some kind of "gotcha" moment that the world will somehow turn on them for.

    I can only assume it's because they believe Putler is somehow "above" the rest of us and the rest of the world should agree that you don't harm the nobility.

  • Inclusivity rules, Ohio... not so much

  • Hey, I live in Ohio and.... That's fair.

    I hate living in rural areas of red states.

  • Fascist paramilitary invaders corner, shoot, and abduct unarmed journalist Carlitos Ricardo Parias. (Los Angeles, CA - 10/21/25)

  • This guy shouldn’t have a weapon, let alone a badge.

    The only reason I will disagree that this guy shouldn't have a weapon is because I think he should use it on himself.

    Failing that, dude needs life in prison, bare minimum.

  • Hey now those were TERRORIST KIDS looking for TERORIST FOOD because of their TERRORIST STARVATION

    See you know they're the bad guys because I called them terrorists.

  • American actor George Clooney and his family are granted French citizenship. Clooney previously said that 'his children have a better life in France than in the United States.'

  • You’d leave in a fucking second if you could.

    Not op, but happily. In a heartbeat. Wouldn't even have time to finish the conversation if it were an option.

    And yes, they absolutely can be vocally pissed that a privileged old white rich man and his privileged rich kids will get to continue living much better lives due to their riches that allowed them to leave.

    It's like people here WANT to be pissed off at everything.

    Lol

  • I'd love to if I could afford it. Neither my wife or I are particularly tied to our families.

  • Moral support

    Jump

  • Honestly, can you be sure you wouldn’t get distracted and forget the next step

    This would help me and my wife. We both get distracted and this would remind us to finish the task before doing anything else.

  • Google CEO Says We're All Going to Have to Suffer Through It as AI Puts Society Through the Woodchipper

    Jump

  • That's one thing I really liked about the first John Wick movie. No drawn out revenge torture, just a quick bullet and walk out. No need to take some kind of sick pleasure in it, there's a job to be done.

    Now that's not to say I won't enjoy some feel-good thoughts about the whole thing, but I just don't take pleasure in making a death slow and painful.

  • Nigerian Village Bombed by Trump Has 'No Known History' of Anti-Christian Terrorism, Locals Say

    Jump

  • I can't count how many times I've heard someone near me say something about how minority groups in the UK are just going around stabbing each other or shooting up drugs, and also immigrants are stabbing everyone and doing all the drugs, and also the teenagers are getting wasted every night... Etc...

    Like.... What possible news source could you be basing this off? I'll admit I don't keep up with global news like I could, but it seems pretty stab-free in the UK and that's why it's such a big deal when it does happen.

    Also just this past month I've heard someone talk shit about gun control because of a shooting in a relatively gun-free country "look how that helped them".... Uhhhhhh yeah let's just ignore all the mass shootings in our own backyard that don't even make news anymore because it's so frequent.

    Reality means nothing to these people, only what they(re told to) feel at that particular moment.

  • A local church got fined something like 150k for hosting a soup kitchen every Thursday and only stopped because cops started breaking it up and arresting people.

    In the same month, the only local food bank closed for a plethora of reasons (no donations, lack of enough/consistent volunteers, etc)

    Cops started threatening to arrest people who gave anyone food on the side of the road.

    Genuine question: what are homeless/starving people supposed to do now?

    I mean, we all know the answer, I just want the Fuckwads to say it out loud and stop pretending.

  • Ska ftw

    Jump

  • Open question to the floor: what is the most "Ska" song I could send to someone? Like the most iconic or the most stereotypical "Ska" a song could possibly be.

    Edit: I've got some listening to do, thanks for the responses, keep them coming! I've never heard of half these bands, and while Ska isn't usually my thing I definitely vibe with some of them.

  • My life has been way better since I started keeping a cursory view of headlines once a day

    Jump

  • Ew. Gross. I liked not knowing better. Ah well, at least I can't check it myself so I don't really care that much. I didn't want lemmy to feel like a competition like I used to feel occasionally with r*ddit.

    Also this is the first time I've noticed my name doesn't show up as "Miles O'brien" for everyone. Now I'm sad :(

  • Rainbow Six Siege is under siege by hackers, Ubisoft forced to take all servers offline — players randomly received billions of credits, ultra-exclusive skins, and bans or unbans

    Jump

  • Right? Call of duty is basically 5 seconds of setup and then everyone just sprints at each other guns blazing.

  • Who asked for that??

    If I had to guess? Children/minors who don't like setup time.

  • Yeah, ruining play experiences by locking things behind paywalls is a terrible thing to do.

  • Honestly I've thought cm002 was a bot before as well, but they engage in comment sections often enough to say either it's not, or it's a user hopping on to check bot progress.

    Either way, most likely case is it's a user that saw a funny meme, and reposted it since not every sire is federated with others and some communities might not see it, especially if it's to a world or ml domain.

    Possibly related, I did not see your post from this morning, this is my first time seeing it. Not sure about federation between instances but yeah.

    Also tangentially related, anyone remember the huge r*ddit drama over a poweruser constantly reposting things with top comment responses to farm karma? That was a fun glance into people who take imaginary internet points too seriously. I'm glad lemmy doesn't keep track of total votes.

  • If they read comments instead of up voting and moving on with endless scrolling, they'd be very upset.
