You sure you’re not confusing China with the United States?

Boom, there it is!

I Guess we're just ignoring all the shit they're pulling by dumping sand and dirt into the ocean and calling it a Chinese island, and all the shit they're doing near Taiwan.

Can't wait for someone to pull out a 400 year old map to justify modern day imperialism again!

Well he is part Chihuahua...

Reality is hostile to conservative opinions.

I love when conservatives pull the "you're not being very tolerant" to me. BITCH I NEVER SAID I TOLERATED STUPID also tolerance of nazis is how you get more nazis.

I wish I had every media outlet constantly calling my crimes literally anything but CRIMES

My smallest dog is probably the smartest, and he not only understands "covering means warmth" but he also has a favorite throw blanket. Even when they've been freshly washed he prefers the flour tortilla patterned blanket, as it's the warmest.

And when it gets warmer overnight, he will switch to a cooler blanket.

Haven't managed to train him to put his unused blankets away, he just leaves them wherever he dragged it to last.

The last time I used skype, it was to monitor my 3d print because I needed to finish a project and my last attempt went all spaghetti.

So as I was at work I'd log into my computer from my phone, call myself with skype, and check to make sure everything was still okay.

Then I discovered octoprint.

As I like to say, "The moral high road is filled with corpses"

1 the things that have extra holodecks that I've seen are just space stations, which can have larger power stations. The ship in insurrection was purpose built to trick people into thinking it was their small village that they don't leave often. It can have all the power it needs dedicated to the holodeck and be slow with a Son'a escort for protection.

2 with you on that one.

3 also with you on this one. It just makes sense. Two people on opposite sides of the system could have dinner together in a holodeck. Easiest sell in the world after the holodeck itself.

4 the only issue I have with medical areas being holodecks is how often we see power issues in star trek. If they lose power, no med bay, no holo-docs. But if you're already doing it, I see no reason there can't be all the holographic doctors you need, and if the entire interior of the ship is filled with holo-emmitters then the EMH isn't an issue.

For the record, I'm with you. I think by the end of the 2380s they should definitely be having entire swathes of ships dedicated to holographic rooms.

In Voyager, The USS Prometheus had holo-emmitters all over, so the EMH was able to walk around and take the ship back from romulans.

Incidentally I was listening to some Certifiably Ingame ship breakdowns and they touched on a ship that has holographic interiors for a lot of spaces, but since I was falling asleep at the time I am unsure which ship it is. I'm trying to peruse the Playlist to see if anything looks familiar.

I have put more hours into red alert 2 and generals/ZH than the rest of my entire gaming collection combined...

This does bring a smile to my face.

At least you all can get your family to use it.

I can't even get my spouse to use it unless she thinks what we are talking about might be illegal where we are (it usually isn't)

I've tried convincing family to use it, but all that happens is I just never hear from them until I see them in person or they call me.

They don't even feel the need to back up their Amazon Kindle collection before they get cutoff from it... Thousands of dollars wasted if they ever lose access to the account.

Girl, same.

Give me autonomous swarms of T-Drones, or GTFO
