I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.
Ask me anything.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks
In mobile FF, yes, it works natively. The “Add to home screen” works the same as it does in Chrome. Later versions, or at least Fennec, will open them as “apps” even if they don’t have a PWA manifest.
On desktop, lack of PWA support in FF continues to be a thorn in my side as well. I’ve resorted to using Web App Manager which is part of Linux Mint (you can install it on any distro, though. I’ve got it working fine in Debian Bookworm).

Yeah, I read that the other day. Wish it would do more than that, but it’s a start I guess.
New fear unlocked.
I can’t wait until a Senator or comparable “it’s not a problem until it happens to me” lawmaker loses access to their digital library and goes on the warpath. That’s the only way out of this “you will own nothing” hellhole we’re in and moving deeper into.
Touche
Honestly, I have no idea lol.
They compare the mass of it to an asteroid, but that’s a pretty big range of possible masses. Assuming it’s the mass of a small, “survivable” asteroid, it wouldn’t burn up in the atmosphere since it’s atom sized.
If a regular asteroid of the same mass is like a sledgehammer, I would imagine the similarly-massed, atomic-sized black hole would be like a bullet?
But I’m just throwing stuff at the wall with that guess.
Found it in “Unsaved Document 4.txt” LOL
MERCER: I have to pee. Bortus, you have the conn.
BORTUS: Aye, sir.
MALLOY: Why not just use the teleporter?
GRAYSON: You pee in the teleporter booth? That's disgusting!
MALLOY: What?! No! Of course not. Watch.
[The bridge crew watch as Mallloy presses buttons on his console to initiate a site-to-site teleport. He then switches the main screen to display a view off the starboard bow where an amber blob of liquid materializes and begins to boil and freeze into an icy nebula]
MALLOY: Ahhhhh.
MERCER: Did you just...? Gordon, you're relieved.
MALLOY: You bet I am!
MERCER: No, I mean get out.
GRAYSON: Wait a minute. I remember right after we got the teleporters installed, we spent two months in orbit around Galavar VI. During that time their moon mysteriously and miraculously developed a ring system. That was you?
LAMARR: Yeah, I, uh, might have helped with that.
ALARA: Me too.
MALLOY: Yeah, and even Issac got in on it.
ISSAC: That is impossible as I am an artificial lifeform and do not produce urine. However, I do require periodic coolant flushes which could be considered crudely analogous.
MALLOY: And do you have any record of coolant flushes during that time?
ISSAC: [BEAT] I do not. To use your parlance: You. Bastard.
BORTUS: Is that why my Ja'loja is late this year? Dr. Finn was unable to determine...[INTERRUPTED BY MERCER]
MERCER: [PICARD FACEPALM] Oh my God. [BEAT] You know what? It's fine. Gordon, you're fine. Return to your station and set a course for Galavar VI. We've got to go tell them their holy miracle ring is just a bunch of piss. It's fine.
GRAYSON: Ed?
MERCER: You know what they say: there's a good story and a bunch of idiots behind every warning label.
I’m now considering this both 30 Rock and Star Trek canon: Lower Decks is a prequel to 30 Rock. Who says immortal beings have to obey linear time?
I don’t get the reference, but I want to. What movie was that?
The Fly?
Keller Williams style! Love it.
Saw Keller live when I was in college; probably the best show I’ve ever been to. Probably didn’t hurt that the crowd was a bunch of hippies, and we collectively hotboxed the Warner Theater. 😆
ENT did a little bit of body horror with the transporters since they were still new in-universe. One of the away team was beamed up during a storm, and some branches and leaves blew into the beam and became integrated into him when he rematerialized. He got better.
I’m hazy on the specifics, but in DS9, someone sabotaged the transporter and the contact they were supposed to meet burned alive during rematerialization. That was pretty gory for Trek.
Galaxy Quest went all the way and turned the pig-monster inside out lol … and then it exploded.
Lol, a few years ago on the alien site, I wrote a scene for The Orville as a “what if The Orville suddenly got transporters” That was basically the premise of it.
If there’s interest, and I can find it (I saved it to a text file somewhere before nuking my account), I can post it here.
I can do all that with my X1 Carbon which isn’t much thicker than an M1 Air. It’s got the same two USB-C / Thunderbolt ports but also has full-size HDMI, 2xUSB A, and wired headphones.
It seems like Apple’s main method of innovation is finding new ways to get people to buy $29.99 dongles over and over again.
They like to make things appear sleek until you actually have to use them. All that sleekness goes out the window as soon as someone hands you flash drive and you have to break out a dock.
Yep. IMO, Year of Hell is probably the best episode of Voyager and in the top 5 of all Trek, and a Smith was definitely a large part of that.
When you’re at the grocery store with your parents and see your teacher outside of school. Same energy lol.
Am also layman, but my understanding is that “dark matter” is just kind of a placeholder for some unaccounted for mass that’s detectable by inference. i.e. we can’t see anything that would produce that gravity, but we can detect that something out there has mass.
with black holes still an option for the behaviors we are seeing accounted to ‘dark matter’ why are we bothering with another, seemingly ephemeral type of ‘matter’?
That’s actually a theory that’s gaining traction again. Primordial black holes left over from the Big Bang are one contender for “dark matter”:

I finally found the source file for that. I posted a screenshot of my phone months ago and people were asking for it, but I had no idea where it was. A little late, but I guess I finally delivered lol.
