If the discovery on Phoebe was in 2342, then Holden is around 20 years older than Janeway; larger age gap than the original but it could work

why are you using a direct download site? πŸ˜‚

(i don't recognize which site the screenshot is of, but i have definitely seen "download" ads like this on some shitty torrent sites...)

alt text

fyi this is how you can put alt text (and, separately, a title which is displayed as a tooltip) on images on lemmy.

I am curious, what do you think Zionism is actually?

I don’t think I can continue contributing when there’s literally a rule condoning ethnic discrimination

The rule against Zionism is literally the opposite of "a rule condoning ethnic discrimination". This community's second rule is actually redundant with its first one, but it's worth stating separately due to the prevalence of misunderstandings about it.

FYI, aside from being predicated on the forced displacement and/or murder of the Palestinian people, Herzl's Zionism (to which the state of Israel explicitly credits its existence) has also always been rooted in antisemitism.

After 20 years, PNG is back with renewed vigor! A new PNG spec was just released.

Wikipedia says:

The mitochondrion is popularly nicknamed the "powerhouse of the cell", a phrase popularized by Philip Siekevitz in a 1957 Scientific American article of the same name.[4]

But know your meme attributes its meme status to this tumblr post from 2013:

screenshot of text: "what i learned from school 1. im a fucking piece of shit 2. everybody else is also a fucking piece of shit 3. mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell"

Contrary to comments in many places like this reddit thread from 2018, I suspect the phrase wasn't actually used in many textbooks or very commonly known prior to that tumblr post.

(If you search on Google Books you can find numerous textbooks using the phrase. Range-based search on Google Books appears to be broken so I'm not sure, but all the ones I checked were published well after 2013.)
