In VOY S5E07: Infinite Regress, Seven was sedated and Tuvok mind-melded with her to save her from the effects of the Vinculum. The way it was portrayed there, it would be like the mind melder entering the dream of the meld-ee.

🎶I caught crabs in paradise. And, yes, I mean both kinds of crabs.🎶

It was, and I remember that too. Was just being farcical…

They actually did follow up, and the episode was one of the better ones:

Though between “Demon” and “Course Oblivion” that’s a good question. We don’t see Voyager itself getting duplicated, so I guess they spent the time building it out of rocks and then forgetting they were duplicates.

15 posts for a 3hr old account. Slow your roll, Louna.

Yep.

Most of them are phishing test emails (where the org sends out fake “phishing” emails which have a UUID link tied to your email address) so they KNOW who clicks on these and who reports them. Until I stopped giving a fuck, I had reported 100% of them and clicked on 0. But since that doesn’t let you “test out” of the 45 minute quarterly security awareness training, I stopped wasting my time and just delete them

Sometimes I wonder whether all this “security awareness training” has any effect at all.

Nope lol.

My org sends out phishing tests randomly. I used to report every single one and have never clicked on any. But we all have to take the stupid training regardless of whether we successfully detect/report them or not. So I’ve just stopped reporting them since there’s no incentive whatsoever.

All I can say is my user block list is so long that the comment count on posts in the feed is completely meaningless.

• you’re

I don’t think they’re saying everyone here was banned from Reddit. They’re saying everyone ever banned from Reddit is here…which, (gestures vaguely at my massive block list) isn’t an inaccurate statement lol.

Update: Yes! Seems to be. Calipers confirm the diameter. TYVM!

Thanks. I’ll grab my calipers and confirm if the measurements are correct. Specs say MHF4 is 1.13mm.

Those letters probably wouldn’t be very helpful, so it’d basically be a $25,000 dick joke lol.

(Or whatever the grand-prize value is these days)

Ooh, I haven’t tried RTL-SDR on it yet, but I think I’m nearing capacity on what it can do at once lol.

Here’s the block diagram for it (in spoiler below). Everything’s up and running except the Bluetooth Receiver -> Snapcast (it works on the bench but I don’t have the scripting/automation done yet). I’m also adding an SMA connector for an external antenna, but the new base part is still printing. Photo shows it “as is” of this writing.

SSL for the web apps was a PITA since I wanted real certs. Had to make a wildcard domain under my main hobby domain, so all my apps are like “https://{APP_NAME}.mobile.mydomain.xyz/”

As soon as I can get the Bluetooth + Pulseaudio scripting done, I’m gonna try to do a write up and maybe a show/tell post.

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

I’ve got the full 120 GB Wikipedia dump running in Kiwix on a Raspberry Pi Zero. Works great (surprisingly)

E-ink display, mini keyboard

Have been using a Minimal Phone for a few months now which has both of those. Can connect to the Pi easily.

multiple ways/ports to transfer info,

Add a USB-C hub (or add a hub to the Pi) and you’re set

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.

And that’s where I’m limited - My 3D printer can only do so much lol. 😆

I’ve been working on a side project this week with a Orange Pi Zero 2W (Pi Zero “clone” but with better specs). It’s got the Kiwix+Wikipedia like my older Pi (described above) plus a bunch of other neat stuff. It’s kind of a combination travel router, portable web app server, party box, and extremely over-engineered bluetooth speaker all-in-one. Hoping to put together a show-and-tell post about it when I get the last of it squared away.

Obviously they match, but which came first? The attitude or that haircut?

Basically what I came here to say. Message is good but a couple of the examples might not be the best.

If anything, Al was the “nagging wife” in MwC. Also Jefferson, too lol.

For sure. My shower thought is just that they won’t be anything like the simple pleasure of the DVD screensaver. It would probably ads that cycle through.

What kind of mad person shuffles their whole collection?

Me! lol

The musical whiplash is strong. It’ll go Pantera, Slipknot, Lady Gaga, Children of Bodom, the theme from Three’s Company, Spice Girls, Waylon Jennings, N’Sync, Foo Fighters, STP, Britney Spears, etc. You never know what’s next.

The sad thing is I have a fully functional MPD + Snapcast setup I could use (including a TUI MPD client), but this is just what I’ve always done. Old habits and such lol.
