They do. Even back in their pre-UEFI days, it was possible to flash BIOS from a properly-formatted USB drive by holding down a magic key combination at power on. But it was not exactly publicized as a supported method.

That might have been true a decade ago. But GPUs and FPGAs have long been obsolete for mining Bitcoin.

Mining is happening on custom silicon in large-scale operations. They specifically observed several of those large-scale operations in multiple nations and extrapolated out. I don't see how that methodology is flawed.

The image that has been burned into my brain since I was 5

Yes.

Interview with Mike McMahan

“There’s one line I cut at the end of this episode when the Vendorians show up and they’re like, ‘Give them a little minute.’ Originally, they said ‘… after this, it gets a lot harder for them.”’ The Vendorians kind of know where it goes and I cut it in the edit because it was such a beautiful friendship moment at the end of the episode. I didn’t want to fly in the ointment at the end, it just felt wrong. It felt right on the page, but people are only going to have to wait a week to find out for themselves to see it… It’s better to end on a happy note.”

It's Rom! From Star Trek!

Rom likes baseball!


It was really great to not only see Leeta again, but to see her as quite the shrewd negotiator. DS9 played them both as a little naive at different points, so it was extremely gratifying to see the continuation of their growth as well as the very sharp skills that Leeta picked up along the way on Ferenginar.

Key & Peele. But they're probably right. Better to go out on a high note.

[-] JWBananas@startrek.website 7 points 2 years ago

Yeah, but you know how VOY is. Everything always resets at the end of the episode.

Ship smashed to pieces? Fixed by the time we hear the next Captain's Log.

It's certainly no ENT.

If you follow the link to the original post, it displays correctly. For some reason, Lemmy sends HTML for code blocks. kbin rightly escapes it on their end for security.
