I predict all but one of the quantum fissures were the result of bearded Boimler trying to get his PADD back.

It’s Viacom all the way down

Opening an SSH session means using Mobaxterm which limits the number of sessions you can create.

Or if you’re using a Windows release from some time in the last decade, opening a terminal and typing ssh

Damn, I guess the ship doesn’t clean itself after all.

I just go where Sync goes.

Sync basically was Reddit to me, for over a decade. And now Sync goes to Lemmy. So here I am.

And it’s about to get a lot worse if this whole no-taxes-on-tips thing actually happened.

The business model incentivizes it by not paying a wage. This is an example offer:

This isn’t even the worst one I’ve seen today, and I only do this part time for extra money.

By all means, report safety issues. Get the bad driver canned. But if you stiff the driver too, and you knew the business model of the service you used, then you’re just further incentivizing the bad behavior.

Needs more stop signs and crosswalks

Gig work is tipped work. If they don’t tip, the driver worked for free.

The gig company “pays” the drivers a pittance, but it largely just covers a portion of the owner-operator’s expenses. 100% of the net profit comes from tips.

There are a handful of municipalities with unique laws which do not fit this model; but outside of those areas, that is straight up how it works.

Now, should the driver be reckless? No, that should be reported. But stiffing them won’t change anything.

Was it not gagh blood?

The first one that comes to mind is zoom.us

The events of Prodigy largely involved wormholes across spacetime in one universe (and incursions into that universe by bad guys).

The quantum fissures in Lower Decks are connected to other universes. While this season of Lower Decks does canonically occur in the same time period as season 2 of Prodigy, I doubt the two are related.

That said, with the specific call-out, I definitely see them having some significance later in the season.

I was more surprised that the crew of the other Cerritos weren’t responsible for opening the fissure in the first place. The setup felt like it was leading toward a reveal that Captain Becky’s crew had ulterior motives.

It was a bit disappointing that the twist only turned out to be Captain Becky opportunistically trying to swap universes. I was expecting something more like Stargate SG-1 9x13 (Ripple Effect) wherein an alternate-reality SG-1 is after me Lucky Charms a ZPM.

What is it?

Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday. Today it is Friday, Friday!

Banning CFCs went pretty well too

*ahem* that’s Captain Tuvix

What was it they said back then? They’re from the South or some such?

I would like to second this, particularly the line “through a slightly O’Brien-esque process.”
