On the other hand, something like ReactOS could, in theory, work if it was much more mature and had more developers behind it.
I row my boat around the lake and look good doing it.

Not usually. The main thing for lab equipment is that it is controlling hardware. So you are often using proprietary drivers for custom hardware. Wine can’t handle drivers and for security reasons can’t get low level hardware access.
Wow, 14/24 that was more difficult than I thought. TBF I haven’t fully reread the Silmarillion since Middle School, but I didn’t expect it to be quite this hard.
They can’t make them non-reflective enough to not interrupt really deep observing. Also, that just shifts the problem around. If they are absorbing in the visible, they will likely have huge amounts of blackbody radiation in IR, sub/millimeter, and radio. You would need to make a satellite out of dark matter to not interrupt astronomy.
Man, I just went to a good seminar today on finding habitable exoplanets that emphasized that we currently need ground based telescopes, because it is still impractical to make 30+ meter telescopes in space and would be very expensive, even if could be done. But progress is just launching a bunch of bullshit into orbit to avoid real investment in infrastructure like fiber and other telecommunication lines.
sci-hub has already been mentioned, but I will say that though it is not piracy, depending on the field, you can find free version “pre-prints” of papers on arxiv.org and socarxiv.org
But imagine the quality of service. Unfortunately, the rice in the back kitchen has been spilled, and no food will be prepared until the staff counts all the grains of rice.
You know, there is an obvious solution…JUST MAKE CLEAN ENERGY AND GREEN SOLUTIONS IN YOUR COUNTRY TOO!

Sorry to nerd out, but this reminds me of a senior grad student when I was a first year physics grad student. He was talking about the “order of magnitude” class that some professor was able to set up as a fun class for fulfilling his teaching requirements. It involved calculating or estimating order of magnitude values and putting them in units of something you can relate to (e.g. distance in terms of football fields, or your height, energy in an hour of air conditioning, etc.). In the spirit of this class, this guy used his dick for length and then came up with some other size unit to convert to for homework he had to hand in. The diameter of the Milky Way galaxy is 5 * 10^19 of this guy’s “dick units”, apparently.

Is there something I am missing? I am using uBlock Origin on Firefox and Youtube works the same as always.
Millennium Challenge Rising
It is mostly radlib anti-capitalism, and there is a huge recession and a lot of bailouts for E-Corp after their heist. So, I believe that it is season 2 and 3 where several characters are starting to say things like “maybe overthrowing capitalism and revolution are misguided”. But if you just want a character based drama with a lot of twists, it is not bad.
We love to, literally, project our wars on the Brandenburg Gate. It is amazing that it was retroactively made into the altar of fascism in the 20th century.
Look, we aren’t using dehumanizing language if we include the adjective “human”
Yeah that is interesting. He isn’t mentioned that much in the Bible/Torah, mostly in passing. And the English translation I read says “a mighty hunter before the LORD”. Which I took as he was a follower of God. But apparently in the original Hebrew, it can be interpreted as an antagonism to God (attempting to hunt the LORD?). So there is Jewish traditions not in the Torah that are similar to the Islamic one, including opposing Abraham. Additionally, he is listed as founding many cities including Nineveh and Babel. So he is associated with the Assyrians and often assumed that he was the king that ordered the construction of the tower of Babel.
But the Christian traditions I know of just read it as, “He was the grandson of Noah and a good hunter” since the other details are vague or not present in the Bible/Torah.
the NB Dr. Who iteration is kind of weird.
