Not gonna lie, I wasn't at all impressed by the Uncharted trailer. It's been a while since I played the games (aka the first three back when I had a PlayStation 3), but I have a very visceral sense of what the games (which I love!) are about. Trailer didn't feel right at all. đ

In the TNG episode, Clues, I find it difficult to believe that everyone on board consented to synaptic surgery by the Paxans. Like the children, for example. So Captain Picard allowed some members of his crew to be memory raped.

On TNG, thereâs also an ep where Troi âlosesâ her empathic sense. She has a strong reaction; people seem like cardboard cutouts to her. Later, they show Troi using the holodeck to train for command.
Wouldnât the holodeck be excruciating to her, like a really bad video game?

I'm still trying to wrap my head around what it would be like to use a Mac with ProMotion. That sweet, sweet 120Hz refresh rate is one of the things I love most about my iPad Pro. But part of that magic is the tactile feel you get as you're using the touchscreen.

I got vaccinated
No one to see, nowhere to go

Asking, asking, asking
Confirming my consent

I rolled up my left sleeve
Oh, jab, oh oh oh oooh!

Top level /github redirect to my profile so I can link to:
https://tantek.com/github/cassis instead of linking to @Github directly.
