- Lt. Cmdr Data, Star Trek: Generations





I like to imagine some weird historian who insisted on pen accidentally flipped the ‘9’ in ‘2191’, and that error just happened to end up in the Enterprise D’s historical database; the holodeck just went along with the error, and Riker was none the wiser, having gotten a C- in Early Federation History at the Academy and having frequently gone to the bathroom “for legitimate reasons” during his high school Earth history class. It was only in mid-2380 that he finally discovered his misconception.
Although it’d still be a bit dismal that trip only lived to 70.


MIPS I get, but armel feels a little weird; I’d wager there’s more production users of Debian on armel than RV64 - not a huge use case, but one that merits a bit more consideration.
I think ~2030 would have been a more realistic date, since most of the last devices with ARMv6 would be about 20 years old by then.


I love the Jake Nog shenanigans episodes.


Though I am a Debian fan, I don’t think trying another distro will help too much.


Not necessarily. In the case of this specific GPU, both 12 and 13 support that model quite well. I can’t tell if Trixie supported RDNA4 out of box, but if it doesn’t, I’m sure Backports does just fine.


Remind me of the babe.


You do.


What power?


So that’s why she reminds me of the babe…


I mean, I had an uncle showing me HTML at 7 (not a programming language, but still). I learned basic JS on Khan Academy at 11, and if I’d known it had existed earlier, I would have started earlier.


Can we pulp the Worfs down into more of a Worf slurry and fill the Enterprise with that? We can give each of them a warrior’s death first if we need to.


The LaTeX formulas make me chuckle so hard.


Warriors seal their own stembolts!


You talk like a Ferengi bIHnuch! The glooreeee of one meme has a value unequaled by any amount of latinum.


That’s pretty normal for most UEFI x86_64 things up to 2020 or so.


I had Subway Surfers as a kid and still watched Star Trek.
And just replace Bluey with Thomas and Friends or whatever.


My mom would be lass lax in making do our homework if we watched whatever Trek she was watching; I was drawing pictures of Picard by the time I was 10. This was in the 2010s.


While also caring developing its characters extremely well; I think only DS9 had better character development.


UEFI first became common on new computers in 2011-2012, so I don’t a lot of 2014 computers were BIOS.
I have a cheapo laptop from 2012 (one of last Gateways) and it’s a UEFI machine.
At this point, I think 15 years ago is a more realistic estimate for the last legacy BIOS machines - my Win7 box with a 1st gen i5 is legacy BIOS.
