Lol, I can’t believe I didn’t think of that reference.

Eh, still better than a dumb, annoying, and/or super political account lol.

A database can be used to plug into any number of applications that run on top of it as well as be easily shared by multiple people and centrally backed up. Auditing, logging, and row and table level access controls, and other measures can be easily added.

Excel files (or even MS Access files) as “databases” are often just people emailing around a file or accessing it from a shared drive. You end up with a split-brain situation at best and at worst you’re dealing with constant file corruption from multiple people thinking they can access it from a shared drive at the same time.

Then you get vendor lock in and are forced to keep MS Office professional licenses because Shawn created some stupid Access “app” 10 years ago which is “THE DATABASE” and no one understands how it works.

Not that I’d own a smart fridge, but if I did and they started shoving ads on it, it’d look like this later that day:

Awesome! Yeah, spoilers aren’t standard markdown (AFIAK) and most apps just copied the way lemmy UI implemented them as custom containers.

At least in the default UI, it’s still not working right. It’s all treated as the title of the spoiler.

Most clients require it as :

:::spoiler Title that shows when collapsed
The rest of the text that should be hidden in the collapsed part.

More text that should be hidden.
:::

Not sure what client you’re using, but the spoiler tag not being closed causes them to not work.

Very nice. Could definitely use that. I’ve got the same Ender as pictured, so def seems worth $10 and would pay for itself using up the tiny leftover bits on various rolls i have.

What’s the benefit? Does it pause the print to let you swap filament? I’ve often wondered what to do with the last bit of filament on the roll that isn’t enough to do much of a print, and if so, that seems like it would help.

Update: Yes! Seems to be. Calipers confirm the diameter. TYVM!

Thanks. I’ll grab my calipers and confirm if the measurements are correct. Specs say MHF4 is 1.13mm.

It’s very likely I’m mis-remembering the BTS stuff, but I always thought the whole reason they wrote her out in S4 was to feature her in ST: Academy. I’m assuming now that was either never correct or something majorly changed.

He should at least get a cameo or a guest spot. Continuity-wise, Stamets is right there. And Tig Notaro is gonna be there, and Reno was the perfect foil for him.

America is slacking as of late.

The fuck I am! 😆

How do you think I’ve been coping with…gestures vaguely in all directions?

If Paramount doesn’t pick it up, they should at least offer the idea to David Mack or one of the Trek novel authors. Would make a great series.

Lol, of course. I need to do a re-watch.

I’ve heard that before but cannot place it. What is that from?

For best results, it depends on the context.

For example, when I’m dealing with people who cannot (or refuse) to do the simplest of tasks, I’ve found myself muttering “ugh, just read the instructions I wrote you troglodyte”.

I just started this one yesterday. Enjoying it so far. I’m only a few chapters in, but it definitely fills in a lot of blanks from PIC S1 like “Who is Raffi and why are she and Picard suddenly BFFs?” After reading her introduction, yeah, I’d want to be best friends with her, too.

It puts so much of the first season into context that I felt was missing when I watched it.

Thanks for the recomendation.

Skip episodes become brand new episodes after enough time has passed!

They absolutely do! I was thinking that earlier. They become like your own personal “lost episodes”.
