Generally, a preliminary injunction will be called for if the action is harmful and irreversible, if delaying it while the question is resolved wouldn't cause significant problems for the party being sued, and if the requesting party is likely to win the lawsuit anyway.

When I googled that was the list I got, but I know that California, at least, still has in-person voting too.

California has "universal mail-in voting", not "mail-only". Meaning every voter is eligible to vote by mail, not that in-person voting is unavailable.

What states are "by mail only"?

The lunch arrangements will vary greatly by age/grade level. A high school is more likely to have the canteen style while an elementary school is more likely to have the cafeteria style. In either case, bringing a lunch from home is also reasonably common.

And TNG did break its own rules with Moriarty.

My headcanon is that Dr. Zimmerman and Lt. Barclay used the Moriarty program to discover how to make sentient holograms, and that's why sentient holograms started showing up everywhere.

I cleaned out the junk drawer and found a bunch of Starbucks gift cards that I've received for various reasons over the past 15 years. I used one from 2015 today and the barista was mildly surprised and asked where I got such an old-style card. So I told him about the junk drawer.

 
 

This is the one at MedTek, not the one in Nuka World that always works. Only took 2,555.6 hours of playtime over 11 years.

 
 

I've been listening to X-Minus-One episodes for the last few days and am really starting to appreciate the radio play format. Some of the stories are pretty dated, being from the 40's and 50's, but a lot of them still hold up if you're a little forgiving on the science details.
