I’ve read about the command uniforms being lime green but appearing gold on screen before. But it’s never been clear to me if that was intentional on the part of the production crew or not.
You’re right… which is why, in-universe, the gold appearance becomes canon.
Sisko refers to it in their TOS time travel episode, SNW has command officers wearing gold too.
But it didn’t even take THAT long! Even as early as TAS, Kirk is wearing a gold uniform. Later, in the Monster Maroon era of the TOS films, we see gold being used for Enigneering (see Scotty when he’s not wearing his super cool vest…).
And of course, TNG uses red, blue, and gold despite the color swap for the command and operations divisions.
This was going to be my answer. I only buy used business-grade laptops. Thinkpads are the obvious choice, but I’ve also had good experiences with HP Probook and Elitebook models too.
Yeah, that’s pretty much what I thought too. In a lot of cases, characters will call a direct point to point trip an “emergency beam out” or use some similar phrase.
Maybe that’s true!

It’s almost as if connecting every single electric/electronic device in my house is bad idea!

So… yeah. Green goes away pretty fast!
I’ve never read the Witcher books, but I know how devoted to them Henry is/was.
I always felt some kinship with him when he was dealing with bullshit about a franchise he loved. The Trek fans were with you, brother!
Hell, just seeing the trailer for the movie was enough to get me to avoid driving behind a log truck…
Look, an alert is an alert…

Look at all the pretty green check marks!
All of that checks out
Thank you, kind lemmy user!
Which one is it?
Scotty, of course.
“It was on sale…”
Can someone, anyone, tell me where it is that you work where input speed is the bottleneck in software development?
Because I have genuinely never worked at any company where the main thing holding up development was that developers weren’t typing fast enough.
Well, just the one time.
They have changed.
American, here. Both my kids stayed in my wife’s hospital room the entire time, from the time they were born to the time we left the hospital.
Even medical exams happened right there in the room. My kids were NOT born in the same hospital - they were born hundreds of miles apart.
Well, I’m glad that we now have a font that makes it look like I’m not wearing my glasses… when I’m wearing my glasses.
Lenovo, HP, and Dell are also pretty big players too.
But even Microsoft priced the Surface line as high as they did because they just weren’t moving much hardware in comparison.
C#/.NET is easily the best thing Microsoft makes.
I realize the bar is pretty low.
Yeah, that’s pretty much what I thought too. In a lot of cases, characters will call a direct point to point trip an “emergency beam out” or use some similar phrase.
