Andrew Jackson is the other strongest contender.

Armed means the arms are ready to give a reassuring hug.

Bell beaker people - “what’s a bell?”

Nvidia is deep deep into the circular-financing scam - one recent example is they promised to provide two thirds of the money another company wants to pay for Nvidia chips. This demonstrates the prices are far far away from what real fair market prices should be, and that winners and losers are chosen in advance by negotiations between a few CEOs, not actual company performance. They’re unashamedly drawing attention to the fact it’s a bubble, and they’re still inflating it.

I wonder if Jake has his hand on her shoulder, maybe. Edit - No, not really enough space there. Odd. And Jake looks too young for this to be between Daxes (Daxen?), between S6 and S7.

this is already done. about a quarter of the big panels on the International Space Station are radiator panels.

they’re always aligned 90° away from the solar panels so the sunlight hits them edge-on and their faces are pointed towards empty space.

a satellite with data-center level servers on board would need an absurd amount of both solar panels and radiator panels, so many panels that it would need to orbit much higher than the ISS, because of trace atmospheric drag.

They’re hoping Geordi LaForge is in command - he ordered the only saucer separation where the intention was to safely preserve the civilians, and where the separation itself wasn’t an untested dangerous high-warp maneuver. (The Arsenal of Freedom)

Riker, on the other hand, separated the saucer in order to shoot at a Borg cube from two directions at once. (The Best of Both Worlds)

Picard is the one who wouldn’t drop out of warp to do the separation. (Encounter at Farpoint)

Riker also ordered saucer separation after a warp core breach was in progress and unstoppable. (Generations)

Those were the only four times the Enterprise-D was shown to separate.

Quark and Rom could give them one super obvious piece of advice on how to hide a cloaking device.

All hew-mons look alike, Nog.

when doing a training run, the speed bottleneck is computing power, not storage I/O speed.

I have one so I can charge my phone overnight and also connect to a bedside speaker by cable.

It was half in High Rock and half in Hammerfell. There were dozens of little kingdoms and principalities, almost all loyal to the Empire, and Daggerfall city was the capital of Daggerfall kingdom, but that was only a few percent of the total map area.

The second Elder Scrolls game, Daggerfall was also a city, actually pretty near Sentinel, just across the Illiac Bay.

Arena was supposed to be a nickname for the whole continent of Tamriel. Oblivion is a place, but most of that game was set in Cyrodiil.

So only two of the five so far, Morrowind and Skyrim, have been named after whole provinces.

USA doesn’t give a shit about the UN or any international law - they still have the President and Cabinet-level envoys talking with Putin and Netanyahu, both having active arrest warrants from the International Criminal Court.

you’d need several dozen, maybe a hundred uranium nuclei doing fission at once to knock over a coarse grain of sand.

Bananas always get the hype for being particularly rich in potassium-40, which is the unstable isotope, but Brazil nuts have far more, and potato and carrot are about as radioactive as banana.
