For a few brief beautiful moments, I assumed you were talking about the firmware running on the Fisher Price toy.

As your answer included more details, my understanding became a delightful confusion and then realization.

Also, all three pictured devices are probably running Linux… Or at least could.

So what’s the game here?

In certain cases in history, healthy prisoners were made profitable through enforced labor, while unhealthy prisoners were executed.

Yes! Anytime Colm can’t join for the episode, they should just cast John C Reilly, and then only barely acknowledge it.

Then, eventually, they can do a transporter clone episode with both Colm and John.

Is it just all of them?

It would be great for O’Brien to show up in every era of Trek after DS9 through the same kind of transporter accident that brought Scotty into TNG - but have it happen once in each show.

Beautiful!

I’m going to use this.

And I’ll add that they made an episode of “Doctor Who” about it.

It sounds like you have a hobby, add just need to give yourself permission to get at it - and give yourself a break about your lack of progress.

The only people who ever made a great game started by making a bunch of shitty games.

Sorry for your loss, and thank you for the laugh.

And my answer is the same.

The world would probably be a better more peaceful place if he could find a pair of heels that fit, and the right place to rock them at.

Even if he’s not into that, there’s still more lifestyle options he may have missed.

if all else fails, spite.

Yes. I’ve put up with too much crap not to get to become a cranky old person ranting unintelligible bullshit, someday.

I plan for it to be relatively pleasant unintelligible bullshit. But unintelligible bullshit it will still be.

It is taking longer than expected, though.

Nice try, FBI.

It means the premise may or may not be true, since the vacuous truth OR-ed into it makes the overall statement true…OR 1=1.

Thanks. I was using Duck Duck Go for the terms “Evangelical” and “Empathy”, and found only pro-empathy articles on tht first page of results (other than the Screwtape Letters chapter).

it has been an increasing talking point among the right wing and evangelical churches that empathy is bad

While I’m inclined to believe this, my attempt to add a source came up mostly empty, other than an amusing chapter of CS Lewis’ Screwtape Letters.

Yes. There’s no telling what this is. this could be anything. We tried to keep track of this, but no one knows when this will change.

So the billionaires are getting ready to try and lower everyones pay

Haha. Trained in racism is going on under the hood.
