It's safe to assume that the US government owns all your software and the Chinese government owns all your hardware. The thing that protects you is that your local police department is too stupid to work a computer and you're probably not important enough to come to the attention of the heavy hitters in the government.
As for whether or not the mcfascists will kick in your door: maybe. The answer would still be "maybe" regardless of your internet usage...it's random and arbitrary by design, to keep everyone terrified and encourage them to constantly compete to please the regime.
TNG infamously had an episode about an asshole captain who, among other things, made arbitrary and annoying changes to the scheduling system. Did you feel the same way about it then? It just seems to me that bureaucratic and management difficulties are a totally plausible problem to deal with in starfleet.
The thought entered my mind to go back to school and get a Masters or something. I have 14 years in the field already but my bachelor's was unrelated. Anyone else done something similar and have any input?
Yeah we made a machine that burns a million miles of rainforest and drains a lake of drinking water every time you use it, and we're forcing everyone to use it, but you're the wasteful one for saying slightly more to it.
You can use Google Forms to get the RSVP functionality you're looking for. And maybe a dedicated Discord channel with suitable posting restrictions so it's JUST DMs posting such forms? Or you could even have them DM you their pitches and you post them, such that you can make the channel so only you can post. I also like using this tool for scheduling: https://www.when2meet.com/
You need a method to quick jot stuff down in the moment. I use google keep for those thoughts/ideas. It's on my phone, very low friction always to just pull it out and get something out of my head. Make it good later, just use your notes app (or an actual notepad if you're oldschool) to get it out of your head so you can think of other stuff without worrying about losing it.
Also worth noting, when doing group stealth, you're effectively limited by the least-stealthy party member, since it usually only takes one person getting caught to give the game away.
It wasn't sporting, it foreshadows ::: spoiler spoiler Sisko lowkey being half god :::
The temptation to just post the address of a certain bar and a time is nearly overwhelming

This is good advice but I will add that putting a timer on player's turns is also itself a bit of a problem...it comes off as infantalizing.
People razz nasa about the tampons but then if you ask them what a reasonable number is they won't give you a number
That's not really how bots work. It would have to be coded to actually read and reply to your responses
I disagree with everything besides #1. I think this may actually be too dated to be helpful.
By our standards it's just a regular bathtub
Anyone gone back to school for an advanced degree after working in the field for a long time? What was your experience like?

In a world where any doctor can make the whole bridge crew into Klingons in an afternoon, outpatient, there's no reason I can't become my fursona.
Janeway would ABSOLUTELY release weaponized smallpox to get coffee.

Rookie mistake.
"Computer, Anime Waifus, Hot."
Ooh, this looks neat. I don't think I'd use it for spurious notes but it might be a good replacement place to do the making-it-good part

Sadly it's not that there was "so much" it was that it was "so gay." Berman cracked down hard on that, so there's only hints left.
