I saw it a couple of days ago and thought of posting it but that nobody at a Star Trek community would be too interested in a TVO interview, and nobody in the Ontario community would be overly interested in a Robert Picardo interview. Glad there's an overlap!

As it should be... Navigators could determine latitudes pretty accurately by using astronomy. It was the longitude that was a big problem (maybe that's part of the reason Japan is placed in the middle of the Pacific).

Well, peanuts are legumes, so beans basically.

The balrog was already awake, but maybe wasn't paying attention 😜

Interestingly, that is not the case. Month names can differ in different languages. I discovered the hard way that Ukrainian has completely different names for months when I had to connect to a Linux machine in Kyiv with Ukrainian locale (I can read Cyrillic, but the abbreviated month names meant nothing to me). The name for August is "serpen" by the way, and it is similar in some other Slavic languages. Also Arabic has its own month names based on Akkadian, August is "ab" but an Arabized version of the word August is also commonly used and understood. Finally, in Mandarin and presumably other Chinese languages, Gregorian months are only referred to by their number, so we are in "bayue" (lit. eight(th) month).

This appears to be in Miskolc in eastern Hungary. The capital Budapest also has a decorative Christmas tram.

I also always start with "crane" 😁

Also, if I'm not mistaken the uninitialized prop is not guaranteed to be nullptr here, so this private destructor could be trying to free from some random pointer.

Some Trekkie had to come here and post this:

Agree about Joplin. No need for a full NextCloud instance, I use the WebDAV option which Apache has pretty much out of the box.

I watched it once (on an airplane 😆) and remember really enjoying it.
