I just looked it up, and it seems a lot of the pre-Apple Silicon MacBook had swappable airport cards that used a completely standard mini PCIE slot. From a cursory google search, it looks completely possible to swap in something like an Intel Wi-Fi card that is supported natively by the kernel.
A mini-PCIE Wi-Fi modem can be had for not too expensive, around the $30 range; in fact, if you have a good stack of old Wintel laptops, one of those might have a card that works well. In fact, I did that with my sister‘s laptop (although she was using Windowd) – her Realtek Wi-Fi card was causing endless misery, so I ripped the Intel modem out of an ultra book from circa 2016 and put it in her laptop. No more issues.
The 2023 IDW Star Trek Annual's plot was basically all the holodeck programs on the USS Theseus read "Photons Be Free". Luckily, Tom Paris happened to be there and understood what the phrase meant, and Captain Sisko dropped off holographic Spock, Janeway, Stamets, HMS Enterprise Picard and Riker, Sato, etcetera with their holographic equipment to settle on a planet.
Exactly. Luckily, back in high school, my IB History class spent a good couple months just learning about authoritarian rulers and their tactics.
I especially like pulling out Pinochet because he’s a clear and relatively recent example of right wing authoritarianism, manipulation of existing religious structures, and US government support of authoritarian regimes that help contextualize its trend towards authoritarianism.
I think the biggest issue with ENT is probably the sexualization of T’Pol, the culmination of a nasty habit in Berman Trek.
I could tune out 7’s catsuit because she was otherwise well-written and the good plotlines outnumbered the bad, but it feels like at least 75% of all T’Pol stories were of the horny Berman type, to the detriment of her character.
While we're at it, let's just pull in Chris Pine (multiverse crap) and William Shatner (Nexus crap) and have one of those nutty SNW episodes that sounds like a horrible idea but is surprisingly one of the better episodes that season:
True. I just think it's a few years too early; armel is dying, but I don't think it's 32-bit x86 level dead. I feel like 2030 would have been a better year. If they really found the user base was that small, though, then I guess that's less for Debian to maintain.
I like to imagine some weird historian who insisted on pen accidentally flipped the '9' in '2191', and that error just happened to end up in the Enterprise D's historical database; the holodeck just went along with the error, and Riker was none the wiser, having gotten a C- in Early Federation History at the Academy and having frequently gone to the bathroom "for legitimate reasons" during his high school Earth history class. It was only in mid-2380 that he finally discovered his misconception.
Although it'd still be a bit dismal that trip only lived to 70.
MIPS I get, but armel feels a little weird; I’d wager there’s more production users of Debian on armel than RV64 - not a huge use case, but one that merits a bit more consideration.
I think ~2030 would have been a more realistic date, since most of the last devices with ARMv6 would be about 20 years old by then.
I mean, I had an uncle showing me HTML at 7 (not a programming language, but still). I learned basic JS on Khan Academy at 11, and if I’d known it had existed earlier, I would have started earlier.
Can we pulp the Worfs down into more of a Worf slurry and fill the Enterprise with that? We can give each of them a warrior's death first if we need to.
Heck, if you want the stickers, you can easily print them on a good inkjet.
