Do the individual photons slow down? No. But those photons get absorbed by atoms along the way and then a new photon of light is emitted (nearly, but not literally, instantly) which then continues along it's merry way at C until it encounters another atom. What slows down is the net speed of transport through a given medium.

Simple, just use "dudes" instead of guys

you're overtly sexual!

ahh yes, as opposed to the scenes where all the boys group up for boy power

Is lab grade distilled water more guaranteed to be neutral pH? Because I tested some random distilled water from walmart and it was like 5.5. I then went down a rabbit hole and learned that distilled water is so pure that it just sucks up carbon from the air.

However, a report from the Hollywood Reporter revealed that the leak didn’t come from within Paramount but from a hacker from PeggleCrew—the same troupe behind an infamous 2016 cyberattack on the hosting website FossHub.

I'm guessing the crime is how they got the movie.

According to the publication, police discovered that the leaker gained unauthorized remote access to the server on which the animated film was stored, leading him to allegedly download and upload clips of the film online.

This happened in Singapore I guess, but assuming they have similar laws to the US then this would be unlawful access of a computer system.

It's an older meme, Sir, but it checks out.

lol when I first started watching DS9 I just could not get past the idea that Sisko was commanding an interstellar truck stop/motel.

Oh yeah, I forgot he actively removed it. That's what I was referencing lol. "All I know is... they won't get very far." All this episode was missing was a scene of Picard crawling through a jefferies tube in one of those Voyager-style tank tops.

Ahh yes. The episode where Picard shoots a terrorist in the leg with a crossbow, leaves another to die of their own stupidity whilst gloating about it to the Starbase, and then ends on a Mister Ed reference.

Me playing Lego Star Wars and realizing you can shoot all of the Tusken raiders and the game just doesn't care.

 

Sorry Wash! Also, this was the crossover I didn't know I needed.

 

Inspired by a comment I saw earlier calling it the "Prime Suggestion".
