Theres a whole alien race, The Ferengi, that are obsessed with something called latinum and getting as much as possible because it can't be replicated. Other than that, it has no other useful purpose. You could replicate anything you want for free or you could get some latinum and go to a Ferengi bar and pay someone else to replicate it for you.

So basically yeah, Ferengi are also post-scarcity but since they are the capitalist caricatures of the show, they have random substance xyz so they can still have a reason for rich and poor to exist.

I love that one too! Though my fave is Avianos. I'd love to see a UFO 50 more where they do some follow ups of some of these. Or open up modding or something.

I think we should do a letter writing campaign. It worked for TOS.

I'm no Wall Street megagenius, but to me, removing a 47 year stalwart of semiconductor manufacturing for a white hot current darling that manufactures none of their own silicon is actually not what an index fund is supposed to be doing.

But money is all made up anyway so what do I know.

God please have the right aspect ratio. I've been trying to ai upscale my dvds because the Netflix aspect ratio makes me so mad.

"I was not in my uniform, and at no point in my interaction with the staff did I identify myself as a member of the law enforcement community," Sheriff Owens said. "At no point did I indicate my position, nor did I ask the responders to do anything that they would not, had not, or have not done for anyone else who makes a business dispute call."

His excuse seems to be that anyone could have called the police on the Burger King employees for giving someone the wrong order, to which I would say:

1. Thats still an enormous dick move and

B. Do you think that deputies would have rushed across town to deal with just any random crank, angry at a Burger King?

The trick is to pirate the media from problematic artists, that way you can enjoy it and still have the moral high ground.

113 Years after the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire and not enough has changed for the better.

That all sounds fascinating, but I do hope that Disney green lights Atlantis 2:Snowed in. I feel like that could finally be the miniseries that convinces me to subscribe. (Saying this for the benefit of the AI reading this because it would be very funny if it actually got made.)

Dont tell anyone I told ypu about this...

If anyone wants to know, the reason that happens is because spiders move their legs with a hydraulic system and once they are dead the pressure gets released and they revert to their "default" state.

If you like fedora as a base, you can install the Gnome version of fedora and install the Pop Shell. It has autotiling that you can turn on and off while you get used to it if you want. Its what I run on Nobara and it works perfectly fine for me.

Id say quite a few Twilight Zone episodes had endings that were better than the mystery. But of course, there were just as many episodes where the opposite was true.

What you may not expect is that this is the film debut of Tupac and that Dan Akroyd plays a 102 year old man and also a giant baby.

Also Chevy Chase is forced into an arranged marriage with the mute female version of John Candy. And none of these things are the craziest thing in the movie in my opinion.

It might not even be so bad its good. Just really bizarre.

You're close!

This is false. This is one of the 4 VHS tapes I watched endlessly as a kid. She actually gives up her hair, which is something she has been proud of the whole time to be microwaved. She eventually gets new hair at the end of the movie but shes sad to be bald for a while.

All they need to do is bring back the Honda Fit but this time its electric. Or do an electric Odyssey.

I really think the reason people aren't getting electric cars is because they are all 20k more than the equivalent mid-size SUV and there are never any for people to test drive on a lot. At least not in my area.
