Only if it was meant as an insult. Usually there has to be several comments trying to argue with me before the insults come out. I appreciate when people ask how I'm doing in a non-confrontational way. I'd assume that statement wasn't meant as an insult, but I've been wrong before.

If you haven't done it yet, next time set your name to Your Daddy.

Was called it a lot as a kid, I took it and made it my own. Now it let's me know who to block when someone has literally nothing left to their argument that they have to resort to using my username as an insult.

I learned a long time ago that the manufacturer doesn't matter much on the long run. They all have a bad model occasionally. I have 500GB Seagate drives that still work, and some 1TB drives that died within a year. I've had good luck with recent WD Red 4TB drives, but my 2TB Green drives have all died on me. I had a some of the Hitachi Deskstar drives that worked perfectly for years when no one would touch them because of a bad production run. I currently have a Toshiba 8TB that I had never heard of before, but seems to be rock solid for the last year.

Pick a size that you want, look at what's available, and research the reasonably priced ones to see if anyone is complaining about them. Review sites can be useful, but raw complaints in user forums will give you a better idea of which ones to avoid.

You're such a total smeghead, Rimmer.

Dammit...I nearly ate the onion.

The series makes a little more sense if you’ve seen season one of DS9.

Make it season 2 of DS9. The Maquis episodes are essential to setup Voyager.

They could have kept most of that episode as a character background filler without the aliens traveling 70000 lightyears over multiple generations just to visit some primative tribe with no language on some backwater planet. That part seems to be the most awkward to shoehorn in.

I'd still prefer those over Tattoo, where they scrambled to shoehorn in an alien explanation for Chakotay's odd Native beliefs after it was discovered that the consultant on Native beliefs they hired was a complete fraud.

I just want to go back to a time when shows built in pause moments for commercial breaks. Watching a video get cut off mid sentence in the middle of an intense scene to be told about how I can send money worldwide just kinda kills the mood.
