When I first watched ENT I had no concept of polyamory and the idea of multiple wives each with multiple husbands felt so alien to me. And once I found out that poly people existed I never made a connection to my memory.
TIL denobulans are poly allies.
And they say Trek is woke now. It's just a perfect blend of different cultures.
If an AI is thinking of Ralph, does that make him live?
Also please remeber that "addict" doesn't mean "weak" or "lesser man" or whatever. We all have our own struggles, facing them is the most brave thing one can do.
It depends on the series, there's not a single formula good for all. If you want a dramatic "8 hours long movie" like The Last of Us, you cannot get a 24 episode season, because it would be boring/inconclusive, and the years between season is neede because these series are hard to make and take a long time. You can't have the cake and eat it too, it's either high quality series or one season every year (also see Fargo for an exmaple of this, one of the series I enjoyed the most and they take their good time to delived it).
If you like want less action drama and prefer extensive character and world building (see Star Trek), it's very difficult to do so in 12 episodes, so 24 was used to sprinkle small details in a broader picture, and while the "monster of the week" trope is sometimes silly (also see early Star Trek) it sometimes make sense in the universe of the show (like Star Trek Voyager meeting a different species ebery week because they are literally travelling through the galaxy, or crime shows where you a literally going through a detective's life one case at a time, while exploring their character and culture). With a lot of episodes you also have the advantage of being able to explore a ton of different topics and take your time to properly do it, more than an 8 hour movie can do. Also these types of series usually are less expensive to make so it's easier to spit out 24 episodes seasons every year (altough it's equally easy to drop in quality). They can also feel more "down to earth" insteaf of bombastic, if you appreciate this (like I do) they can be more enjoyable than the protagonist trying to save the world every season.
I believed the kinux kernel recently became real time?
Just because a CISC will run multiple instructions in a single clock cycle, it doesn't automatically make it faster. Complex instructions means complex decode logic, that makes the execution slower, even at the same clock cycle. A modern intel CPU has something like 20+ stages of pipelining, while ARM has 3-5 stages, that makes the execution more energy efficient and more powerful. Also superscalar RISC architectures exist, so RISC can also execute more instructions at a time, and in less time.
Lastly, modern x86_64 look like CISC, but are actually RISC under the hood, the single instruction is just a pseudo-instruction divided in multiple simpler instructions. I don't believe thay makes it much more efficient.
Fallout New Vegas was also repetitive in many aspects, mainly because they had limited time and resued assets when they could. Still doesn't mean it's not a fantastic game
I understand the concerns in the USA, but where I live, burd flu seems to be pretty much a non-problem for now because of very strict controla and low volume of aviary farming.
300 dead cats in 20 years in 18 countries? I'm guessing that house fires kill more cats than that.
I don't knoe why people are obsesse with keeping cats inside. In a less urbanized area, they are perfectly safe staying outside.
At least if you install other apps you already have KDE. If you install another Flatpak, it's likely this will need another version of the KDE runtime, so it's 2.5 more GB for a 450kB application.
I'm not saying they are not killing birds, or mice, or small preys in general. Cats are predators and amongst the best. What I'm saying is that they are invasive only in places they never were in before human brought them (like Australia or small islands). In continental Eurasia (except areas where they are explicitly been controlled), they have always been there, and the environment is adapted to their presence and will not significantly suffer, not more than any other predator.
I don't really understand this scam. Your employer wrote a cheque on the account where he later deposited the cash he was given. What's the purpose? To inflate expenses and profit numbers?
