This picture has been around for what, less than 24 hours, and it's already is over capacity with JPEG.

I don't blame him for not wanting to travel. Airplane safety is a real concern these days.

I've been listening to the soundtrack recently. It's so relaxing. I think my favorite track is Macalania Woods.

Marginally, related: Any guesses who lives here?

Agreed, Ricardo did have an exceptional chest. We could all only be so fortunate.

There's almost too many good things to make a coherent summary, so let me list some high points: Khan is a tie back to Space Seed, an original series episode featuring Ricardo Montalban. Also, James Horner's sound track was incredible. Kirk's Explosive Reply and Surprise Attack almost tell the story all by themselves. Then there's the well paced storytelling of the cat and mouse battle between Enterprise and Reliant. Throw in some dark sci-fi elements (possibly Alien inspired) like the ear bugs and the abandoned science station filled with rats and dead bodies. There's the Trekish ethical/moral plot of making Genesis vs using it (not unlike Oppenheimer). The self exploration of a middle aged Kirk who's realized he's getting older and regrets missing out on a family. The no win scenario and the loss of Spock. Spock's death is a powerful scene that plays Vulcan logic against human emotion on the stage of a deep friendship. Generally, the film transforms Kirk into a three dimensional character. Those are a few things.

Edit: spelling

After using it since Lucid Lynx 10.04, I switched from Ubuntu to Mint last weekend. I'm lazy about distros these days, and I really didn't want to switch, but Firefox instability was driving me nuts. The web browser must be reliable, IMO. It's a fundamental requirement for a desktop OS, and this problem didn't exist before snaps.

OP, here's another one! This one's also pointing out incorrect facts about Arkansas!

There are some informative answers elsewhere, however, I noticed a gap between the comments and my expectations, bidet-wise: here's a link to the relevant SNL Bidet sketch: https://piped.video/watch?v=zQx-ZbSQSBM&t=0. Enjoy
