Hence the entire point of the original Star Trek. Morality plays disguised by alien makeup, so the mouth breathing rednecks didn't realize.
Conservatives unable to grasp basic plot points of a story thats been around nearly 100 years. Color me unsurprised.
Well, I think it also needs to be in a pristine dish with no scratches. Basically it can only happen if there's nothing in the water to create bubbles and disrupt it, then it could possibly heat up without visibly boiling.
This sounds like someone following a preprepared lesson plan without the skills or experience to adapt, and panicking.
Yeah, my public schools were considered some of the better ones in the country, and Im quite sure any of the teachers would just use that as a launching point, or at least give a cursory explanation and say it'll be covered later. So this a good example of the differences.
Generally you need super pure water though, so if you don't have a distiller and brand new unused dishes, it's probably not an issue.
That sounds like a pretty safe spot for it.
Suddenly today after restarting, my Deck stopped charging or showing the power light, while plugged in. After doing several combinations of holding the ... and volume + button, it blinked, turned orange, and then white. I believe it was holding Power, ... , and + through shutdown for a total of 20 seconds that did the trick. It is charging normally now, but when I unplug and then plug it in, the light goes back to orange. Then repeat, and it goes back to white and charges normally.
Does this mean the deck needs servicing? Should I reboot normally again, or do a system reset, or maybe just let it discharge completely?
Update: I checked it again, and the light was solid green at 95% which i thought was odd. I unplugged and the light began flashing green, and the battery said it was charging, but it was losing charge. It dropped down to 93, i did the 20 second combo again, powered on, unplugged another dozen times, flipped the plug around, and voila it turned solid white. And now it just seems to be completely normal once again.
So I guess the moral of the story is if your deck's battery goes insane, keep smacking it until it fully recalibrates.
Im not against it, but an electric tea kettle is no slower, and less hassle. Seriously, 2 cups of water boils in under 2 minutes, it's insane.
Oh, haha, I've always considered that one of the dumbest songs in pop. I guess I should give it a closer listen.
Yeah, now imagine being an American jew who's been told their whole life Israel is their true homeland.
It could give progressive and younger democrats a decent foothold.
Yeah, this seems like it may actually be some good news in this endless sea of shit we've been in. But the chances of it actually going anywhere are pretty slim.
This dude wouldn't buy Robocop for a dollar.
How's Robocop?
To be clear, this question is for general PC use, and not only gaming.
Desktop mode on my Deck has easily become my favorite PC experience in a very long long time, and I use it more docked as a PC than for gaming. I've used Windows and Apple my entire life before now, so I have zero experience with Linux, other than the Steam Deck, but the OS is incrediby friendly to newcomers, and I'd say it's essentially a modern and polished version of Windows 95.
So what would you recommend as a similar experience for desktop?
Edit: I should probably add that I'm an artist and designer, and play around with Blender and 3D modeling stuff, and maybe even some game dev at some point. So Adobe support, and GPU Blender support would be superfantastic.
A “movie poster” I made over the past couple days with ChatGPT and Photoshop. This started just as “Ronald McDonald” joke for DeSantis and Trump, but I decided to run with it.

Installing a new vanity, and like idiots, we forgot to account for a floating cabinet when plumbing hookups went in, so the drain outlets have about 3-4 inches clearance below, but there's plenty of space otherwise. The plan is actually to try some waterless valve traps anyway, but if we don't like them, or there's some future inspection issue, can it simply be sloped up at a 1/4 -1/2 in grade? Maybe also with some bends to save space?
My plumber comes to install in a few days, and I'd like to know how much of an idiot he'll call me
Someone please make this scene make sense. What do they think "auto" is short for?
I made a thing, with lyrical collaboration with ChatGPT.
Obviously, sung to the tune of Baby Beluga by Frank Sinatra.
In a lower key, of course.
I'm getting these bald spots on the back of my separate scalp mesh. The hair is not combed behind the scalp, it's just not there at all. Weight painting is totally red for both density and length, and I've tried disabling modifiers like frizz and noise, and every other one. Does my model just have bad genes?
UPDATE: The shader was the culprit! The missing hair was simply transparent, but I've switched the short hair to a simple node, and it's all a lot smoother. The complex setup is still on the longer hair.
I get that just running straight is usually faster and he can run on water, but if he wanted to, could he leap via momentum? Has he ever used a Flash Glider?
I have a human character with hair and facial hair (beard, eyelashes eyebrows) made with curves from separate meshes like a scalp. I am attempting to rig my character, but when I select automatic weights for the base meshes, the hair doesn't move at all, and the hair itself can only be parented to a bone. This is fine for the head hair, but not so much for the rest.
Is it possible to achieve rig deformation with curve hair?
I tried searching for this, but to no avail. Previous versions of Blender had a Sculpting brush toolbar hotkey, Shift+Space, for bringing up the brush slection in the Viewport. It seems to have changed with one of the latest update, does anyone know the new one?
Working on a likeness sculpt of Dean. I believe it’s come along nicely, but I would love some feedback, and I believe most people here are pretty familiar with the subject. Please, feel free to tear it apart.
I have been working on a likeness sculpt of Dean Winchester/Jensen Ackles, from the show Supernatural. I believe it’s come along nicely, but I would love some feedback, and please, feel free to tear it apart!

I've been working, lately, on a character model of Dean Winchester/Jensen Ackles. After some feedback from the community, I believe the likeness has gotten pretty close. Next step will be adding his jacket, real texturing, and rigging.
A couple months ago, I posted this sculpt of Jensen Ackles/Dean Winchester, and today I have an update. I hope the anatomy is a lot better, even if the likness isn't perfect. All the textures, eyeballs included, are procedural.
Just a little project to reacquaint myself with sculpting after some time away from Blender. I'm pretty proud with how this one turned out.
I'm looking for something mid-weight and a little rugged. These look great, but a tad pricey.
