hopesdead@startrek.websiteOPto Daystrom Institute@startrek.website•How long would a shuttle from Earth to Vulcan take?English0·1 month agoYeah, if you go back and watch the video I posted on YouTube, the welcome message that plays when you’re in line specifically says shuttle. It would’ve made more sense if they were runabouts but there’s no evidence that runabouts are even used during the period of Picard season 3.
Based on what I can remember from DS9, runabouts are faster and generally used for longer trips.
EDIT: Is the Federation even adhering to the warp five speed limit anymore? I know it doesn’t get addressed after “Force of Nature”, but is there anything suggesting that the speed limit has been dropped completely by the 25th century?
EDIT 2: The site I linked says 28.19 days.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto News@lemmy.world•Catholic Church To Excommunicate Priests for Following New US State Law5·2 months agoI’m going to describe a joke from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (since I can’t find a clip).
The season 15 Ireland arc
After Mac goes to a church and tells a priest he wants to become a priest, he presents a potential conflict. In vague terms, Mac explains he is gay. The priest the entire time says that is acceptable. In the end you learn the priest misunderstood and thought Mac was saying he was sexually attracted to children.
What if I wanted a specific broom?

hopesdead@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Facebook Allegedly Detected When Teen Girls Deleted Selfies So It Could Serve Them Beauty AdsEnglish1·2 months agoThis type of advertising isn’t new. There is that famous (although the claims from the father have been questioned) New York Times article written by Charles Duhigg in 2012. A father of a teenage girl in Minnesota got upset for receiving coupons from Target for infant care related products. As the story goes, he later learned his daughter was in fact pregnant. It turns out Target was using some predictive algorithm to identify would-be mothers and straight up sending them coupons for infant care products. It seems ever since this article was published that they stopped doing this in such a direct manner. Again, there have people who questioned the validity of the claims for this specific story, but Target did confirm they were doing this.

So the comedy It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is about a group of friends that run an Irish pub in Philadelphia. The character Charlie Kelley throughout the 14 seasons prior has the unanaswered question: who is his father? In season 15 the gang take a trip to Ireland. We learn that Charlie can suddenly speak Irish. This is when Charlie meets his father, played by Colm Meaney.
