Supposedly he was going to be a regular cast member if the show had gotten a season 5. The show was leading into the Earth-Romulan War and Shran was going to be a sort of tactical advisor to Archer since Earth didn’t have much experience with space warfare yet.

One of my absolute FAVORITE out of context Trek quotes comes from this episode. “Get the cheese to sick bay, the doctor should look at it as soon as possible.” but I usualy shorten it to just “Get the cheese to sick bay!”.

It was a 3/4 size model, wasn’t it? Surely they could tow it on a trailer?

Edit: from wikipedia

Art director Matt Jefferies originally envisioned a sleek, streamlined shuttle based upon his background as a pilot. The curved shape proved too expensive to build for the first episodes.[3] AMT offered to build a full-sized shuttlecraft at no cost in exchange for rights to market a model kit. The final design of the mockup, by Gene Winfield,[4] is 24 feet (7.2 m) long and weighs one ton, has a plywood hull, and was built in two months by a team of 12 people. A separate set was used for interior scenes as the mockup was too small for filming.[5]

I saw that. If you go into about:config and diisable literally everything that has ‘ml’ in the name you can turn this bs off. One day i’ll switch browsers D= Also it’s really funny to me that publicly all these companies are shouting “AI!” but the engineers seem to know it’s really just machine learning.

edit There are also some *.ml strings you can just straight up delete.

That’s definitely less than ideal.

I’m not trying to support AI but I’m pretty sure the water that is “lost” to data centers is due to evaporation, which would return it to the water cycle. I think the rest of the water use is “closed loop”, so minimal losses.

I only powered through so I could enjoy being blue-balled by Seven in the very last scene.

That nvme drive just hanging out next to the power cord is giving me a type of anxiety I never knew I had, thanks.

A smallish (6U) rack mount that you can bolt into the wall. Even if they rip it down it’ll weigh a ton and have locked doors (with ventilation obvi).

OP already acknowledged in their edit that logging in with a local IP ‘fixed’ the issue.

This picture is so frustrating. There’s no apparent source for the “live” wire. But if you tried following this with your real wiring (white, black and green do exist), you would be connecting your hot, neutral and ground lines all together. I doubt it would kill you at 120 V but it would definitely trip your breaker the moment you plug it in, and almost certainly make some nice big arcs.

Fuck, thanks for posting that. I’m usually happy to be wrong about something but this sucks.

That’s pretty fucked up. I’d be shootin off some angry emails to customer support. Sorry to hear that!

It means the same specific subnet. If you have multiple subnets (one for wired, one for wireless for example) it will also trigger that limitation unless you go in and manually tell it hey these are local.

lol crap, it’s the new arch!

You can absolutely run plex in a local only mode. You don’t sign it in to an account and then set your subnets in the local networks section like so. Or leave it blank if you have a standard flat home network.

I bought a plex lifetime pass for $100 over a decade ago and I never see ads like this. I only occasionally get the notice for plex pro week and stuff like that.

You should be able to. I have a wireguard tunnel to my parent’s house and when they watch plex it doesn’t go over the relay server (I can’t port forward on starlink).

Good explanation. I’m out in the boonies with Starlink for internet right now so no port forwarding for me. I paid like $100 for a plex lifetime pass 12 years ago or something so none of my family or friends even notice most of the time. HEVC encoding helps too (you can squeeze 720p through their relay server with it).
