It depends. It’s a promo card, so my first thought is that it was somewhere between a collector’s special and an advertisement. Also, how common is the misprint—if the entire run was misprinted, then it’s not too special.

Definitely a next-to-the-finale

My Studio Display is also VESA mounted. Same cost.

Now, true, I can’t convert it back to the stand. But I’ve never actually done that with any other TV or monitor I’ve VESA mounted—I just get a pile of stands in my garage.

The arm is metal. The frame and back of the monitor is silver-toned plastic.

It’s less expensive than the Apple display if you make the Apple display more expensive! Also, it comes with Smart Hub if you want to watch TV on your computer without using your computer to watch TV. Bonus feature: plasticky.

AOUSD is a terrible acronym. Why not AFOUSD or OUSDA? No matter what, though, it’s an acronym that includes another acronym, which is gross.

Everyone is focusing on the drink, but what’s also going on is that Nichelle Nichols is completely aware of where the camera is and then repositioning herself so her face is fully in frame.

The version update talks about cloud saves. Can you sync between iPad and iPhone?

Moore v. Harper was just decided by the overwhelmingly-conservative Supreme Court last month, and it rejects this. State legislatures can do what they want, but state judges and federal judges can tell them to go jump in a lake.

Also, representatives are elected popularly, and after the 17th Amendment, senators must be, too. Governors would be tricky for state legislatures to do, because each state has its own state constitution that would need amending—and even states with effective one-party rule still have a difference between a governor and a speaker of the house. Even in a one-party state, no governor would want to be a creature of the legislature.

But is it possible? Sure. If legislatures pass an amendment through their state-constitutional avenues, then it happens. But that’s a high bar indeed. And it might just be completely ignored or dismantled—in Florida in 2018 the voters overwhelmingly chose to amend the state constitution to give released felons the right to vote—then DeSantis did a run-around by miring it in paperwork. The amendment still stands, however.

My illustration isn’t to prove that people aren’t underhanded, but rather that with sufficient masses of people, and with governors who want to appeal to voters, things happen. The whole point of populism is that Guy X’s ranting and raving about “I speak for you” involves voters actually feeling good about voting for him. Put another way, Trump-loving voters love Trump more than their state reps or governors, and as much as they want Trump in charge, they want to be the ones to make him in charge, or else they don’t get to vicariously enjoy what he does.

It’s healthier than Babylon 5, which is a much smaller property, under the thumb of more incompetent leadership at Warner/AT&T/HBO/Max, and is still coming out with a Blu-Ray remaster later this year.

Trek is fine. There may be some doldrums, but it’s healthier now than in the post-Nemesis (2002) post-Enterprise (2005) landscape. And even then, it was only four years before Star Trek (2009).

Again, there’s a smaller gap between Enterprise and JJ Abrams than there is between Discovery s.1 (2017) and today. Stay calm.

The problem is that the game is so open to different paths. Here’s a basic basic basic basic list:

• Talk to everyone all the time; give people gifts (random fruit is fine mostly) twice a week
• Buy seeds and plant them. Harvest and buy better seeds. Make sure to water them!
• Be on the lookout for forage-able fruits and flowers. Chop down trees so you have wood to build. Learn where stuff is and where gates to future progress are. Mostly they’ll tell you what you need to proceed.
• On rainy days when you don’t have to water, fight monsters in the mine.
• Talking to folks gives you quests. Following the quests gives you stuff and teaches you the game.
• Exploring the world and checking the achievement list teaches you, too.
• The wiki is fantastic, but so are the game interface and menus.
