Does sunlight through UV-blocking windows warm you less than unfiltered sunlight?
  • This is correct but also glass blocks both ends of the spectrum. Really just visible light goes through glass. You get some near IR passthrough but not much.

  • Every kid wants to throw a dinner party
  • That’s what makes it tense. One etiquette faux pas and next thing you know you’re bathing the playset in ketchup and pepto bismol.

  • The Battle of Wits commences...
  • Moriarty: I can't compete with you physically, and you're no match for my brains.
    The Dread Pirate Jellico: You're that smart?
    Moriarty: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Bashir, Noonien-Singh, Daystrom?
    The Dread Pirate Jellico: Yes.
    Moriarty: Morons.
    
  • The Battle of Wits commences...
  • Jellico's response that he thinks up in the turbolift:

    "They don't use money on Risa you 19th century twit."

  • For me, Cyberpunk 2077 was uninteractive and has low replayablility value.
  • Act 1 is a chore to get through on replay.

    Good news is if you have the DLC you can skip the first act. The DLC start puts you in front of the Church in Pacifica after fighting Placide.

    I like Cyberpunk a lot but replayability is shallow like you say. Sometimes I just boot it up to punch npcs though. Make a gorilla arms build and go ham. It's pretty cathartic.

  • Moriarty Monday?
  • Prophets help us if Jellico discovers Moriarty's program.

  • HBO’s Big Dune Show Is Here. [Bene Gesserit Voice] Don’t Bother With It!
  • I liked it. It seemed like the first episode was all about exposition. Can’t wait to see more with what they do with the universe.

  • [QUESTION] what's good recipes or ideas for someone who is extremely poor and rarely can't buy much but potatoes
  • Cheap and easy for me means shepherd’s pie or pasta with sauce. Both are simple to make, cheap, and healthy. They also can freeze well so you can make a big batch on sundays for the whole week.

  • Democratic leaders across US work to lead resistance against Trump’s agenda
  • Maybe they'll sing Imagine.

    Edit: Actually since it's resistance they'll sing like Tubthumping or something "i get knocked down, but i get up again"

  • Grievous bodily harm (AlkaHell)
  • Abdirak likes this post.

  • Just Me saying hello
  • Why try to act like an AI photo is you?

    The headboard has a Mona Lisa horizon going on and the right hand has the classic AI weird hand pose.

  • Crossover episode
  • I bet B’elanna could lock onto it. She’d do like a mithril lock or something. It’s like a skeletal lock but for dwarven jewelry.

  • Guerrilla Women
  • WMD --- Women of Mass Destruction

  • Yippe-ki-yay mothervulcan
  • "Why the fuck didn't you stop them, Lon? 'Cause then you'd be dead too, asshole."

    Edit: Also Lon "Suder" McClane is kind of scary if you think about it.

  • Spell yeah!
  • Respec her as a vengeance paladin. She'll still have Paladin of Shar tags for conversations and she won't miss all the time.

    Also anyone using fire bolt should know that it rolls on intelligence so she's almost always gonna miss with it. Sacred flame is marginally better but since it has a dex save it tends to miss a lot too. I just use her mace when I have her as a cleric. Make her chug some strength elixirs and she's fine as a melee cleric even in her trickster subclass. Or beeline to Withers and respec her as soon as you are able.

  • I heard we're doing Mot-ivational posts today

    Description: A meme with Mot from The Next Generation cutting Captain Picard's hair. Below the text reads: Make it so. There is no challenge too great for those who have the will and haircut to make it so.

    At least Michael Bolton wasn't associated with a genocidal maniac.

    Seamus constantly missed his 20th century Office job.

    The Delta Quadrant is the Bad Place.

    Description: A meme with the caption "Okay so that was trolley problem version number 7. Janeway opted to run over five Tuvixes instead of one EMH." Below is a picture of the inside of a trolley with Janeway smiling and covered in gore. Michael and Eleanor from The Good Place are on either side of her. Michael is taking notes and Eleanor is amazed.

    I always wondered if Lt JG Picard got to glimpse the Captain's life in the same way that the Captain glimpsed his. Poor guy got reverse Christmas Caroled.

    Little known fact. The Almighty Judge on High of All Beings Living and Dead for All Eternity, Shawn from the Good Place is actually a Founder.

    Leadership is not about titles, positions or flowcharts. It is about one life influencing another.

    Description: The meme is 3 different pictures in series. The first titled "The Picard Maneuver" shows the USS Stargazer performing the Picard maneuver. The second titled "The Riker Maneuver" shows the Enterprise E releasing metreon gas to perform the Riker maneuver. The third title "The Janeway Maneuver" shows Tuvix being separated into Tuvok and Neelix via transporter beam.

    www.propublica.org Ginni Thomas Privately Praised Group Working Against Supreme Court Reform: “Thank You So, So, So Much”

    In a call with donors, First Liberty Institute’s Kelly Shackelford read the supportive email he said came from Thomas. The leader of the religious-rights group also labeled Justice Elena Kagan “treasonous” for backing a stronger ethics code.

    There are three ways to do something in Starfleet. The right way, the wrong way, and the Janeway.

    Description: Meme with the title "The Janeway" The first panel has Ensign Tahani Al-Trill handing Janeway a PADD saying "Admiral Janeway, you won't believe what I found in the vulcan database!" The second panel has Janeway looking at a PADD. The third panel shows an information block with Janeway's personal info. Her three hyper evolved children with Tom Paris are highlighted. The fourth panel has Janeway stating "Glass those pointy eared bastards" The final panel is a shot of the planet Vulcan being destroyed.

    Let's have a moment of silence for those who may soon be meeting the Great Koala.

    By the 2020s, the American government – reacting to serious problems of homelessness and unemployment – created special Sanctuary Districts in most major cities.

    The Bell Riots start on Sunday. Stay safe out there!

    Everything in the world is easier said than done. Unless you have a speech impediment...

    Description: Meme with the heading Star Trek Jellico. 4 frames below with the first being an exterior shot of the Enterprise D. In frames 2-4 Jellico and Riker are inside the hallways of the Enterprise and and Jellico states to Riker "Will, I want to teach you a lesson my grandfather taught me when I was your age." The next frame Jellico says "When someone with a lisp says bismuth, you know they mean business.". Jellico then walks away with a grin.
