Ordered indian takeout from a place in thr UK. The butter chicken tasted like they cooked a frozen chicken breast and strained a can of Spaghetti Os sauce over it.

Old joke from when I was in engineering college.

What's the difference between a electrical engineer and a civil engineer?

One builds the bombs one builds the targets.

Part of the reason it's so fast is they have the passenger manifest already. So they start the search checking against the hundreds of people that just arrived. Instead off the much larger overall database.

Naked Lunch. That movie is so dense. Particularly when you find out what parts are ba based on real life.

I just started a DS9 rewatch. I find it more interesting focusing on the more alien side characters in that show. The human and bajoran stuff not so much.

Yeah honestly I either sousvide or use a control freak.

Salt 1.5% or 3% equilibrium brine. I pound the breast about 3/4 of an inch thick and set the control freak to 160c 5 min a side. It won't be completely done in the center but a 5 min rest will get it there.

Dead internet theory for a dead world.

Microwave works but be careful and give the container a tap or two before removing it. I've had microwave simple syrup look fine in the microwave but explode into a boiling mess when touched.

You can as long as you get the center hot enough. However baking frozen chicken often makes the meat mushy. I'd recommend a thaw first.

I was the same with South Park. So it's just kids that swear a lot? No thanks.

Years later I caught an episode and was impressed. Then I went back and the first season is also good.

If you got one is it the kind of ship you could use or is it to valuable to risk?

So emperor wasn't exactly a title at first. It just kind of evolved over time. I'm going off of memory from college lectures here.

I think it took about 300 years after Cesar for the term emperor to be applied. There was Imperator but that was a title given by the soldiers and lost after they had a triumph.

IIRC the main original legal power was they could order the death of anybody in the empire. Like in the meme lots of other unofficial powers arise because of the implications.

Hey guy who can legally have me killed. We are planning on passing this law. I would love to hear if you have any objections. Because of the implications.

 

Authorities say at least 18 people are injured after a Delta Air Lines plane flipped upside down while landing amid wintry conditions Monday at Toronto Pearson International Airport.

The Federal Aviation Administration says 80 people were aboard Flight 4819, which originated from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

 
 
 
 

A portion of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore has collapsed after a large boat collided with it early on Tuesday morning, sending multiple vehicles into the water.

At about 1.30am, a vessel crashed into the bridge, catching fire before sinking and causing multiple vehicles to fall into the water below, according to a video posted on X.

“All lanes closed both directions for incident on I-695 Key Bridge. Traffic is being detoured,” the Maryland Transportation Authority posted on X.

Matthew West, a petty officer first class for the coastguard in Baltimore, told the New York Times that the coastguard received a report of an impact at 1.27am ET. West said the Dali, a 948ft (29 metres) Singapore-flagged cargo ship, had hit the bridge, which is part of Interstate 695.
