I don't know about other games, but it wasn't too terrible playing Civ 6.

I've been enjoying my Thinkpad E16 that I got brand new from Best Buy. https://startrek.website/post/13283869

I agree. I thought everyone already knew this was what Debian release names were based on.

Have you tried CoreCtrl? That has made life on my new Thinkpad much easier.

I always thought people like Kang basically just got plastic surgery once they had sufficient influence to be able to afford it.

My other thought is that most of the components of ridges are a dominant genetic trait (kind of like how the Klingon ridges were prominent in Romulan-Klingon hybrids or B'Elonna), and that through a gradual process the virus-affected Klingons interbred with unaffected Klingons until ridges returned.

As for DIS Klingons, I have several thoughts. Since the Klingons go back to normal by SNW, it could be possible that they just decided to retcon the DIS style away all together. Another weird thought is that they could be some sort of genetic glitch encountered with augment-normal hybrid Klingons where they got the ridges but their melanin's all wonky, resulting baldness and either albinism or an "anti-albinism". Once again, the interbreeding meant that eventually, these traits disappeared.

To explain why we tend to see the same type of Klingon together, there could be social biases to keep oneself surrounded by the same type of Klingon; this maybe slows interbreeding enough that communities of several types of Klingons still existed by the 23rd century, but had largely merged back into the normal-ish Klingon by the 24th.

What I forgot to say:

Everyone give it up for the Federation's Applauded Armed Andorian!

Mr. Tysess!

I'm taking this ship by the reins As the red alerts get redder with bloodstains

Mr. Tysess!'

How old of Docx files are you talking? Something like Office 2010 might run quite well, and your father would have probably had to have used some very weird features for it to be incompatible.

Have you ever tried Box86/Box64 for Wine? I was wondering what the experience is like these days.

  1. Pain, torture, and screaming as your system slowly burns.
  2. No, definitely not.

I hear his advice is almost as wise as Boothby's.

I'm just as stumped, but my best guess is there's some application(s) that expect(s) the Windows Driver store to work and return an exception if it's missing.
