I've got too many other things I can watch until the whole season is out.

Google "Middle Out".

I figure he can have a female in front and a male in back, thrust forward/back and knock them out two at a time.

Not to mention two men per hand + his mouth. Probably some foot fetishists out there, too, while we're at it...

I don't know whether to be pissed or amused at what's become of my thread.

Middle out is the key to this scene, which is one of the funniest things ever devised. Still, the funniest part might be the guy coding on a Mac Book.

Been to a tech conference lately? I'd say 2/3rds of the tech people use Macs.

Maybe at Amazon, but not at Dell Tech World.

Well, I mean... they probably don't have a choice if they're going to Dell conference they are Dell customers.

I'd argue they're also the people who do the actual IT work. :D

I'm only half kidding there. What actual tech would ever use an Apple? "I want to pay more for less power and options. I'm a tech!"

Admittedly, ever since Apple made their "computers" able to run Windows I have seen some techs using them. It's still amazing that Apple had to allow their machines to run their biggest competitor's OS just to make them worth having.

The absolute worst tech I ever worked with used an Apple. He also happened to make shitty music in his spare time. I'm quite certain those things are related.

IT people are plumbers. Software devs are creators :)

95% of software development doesn't take much more than a pretty screen, fast CPU and some RAM.

Picard would use an Apple Mac Book Pro to code.

That's true because he's a fucking politician where the superior captain, Kirk, is a legend and PC guy.

I use a Dell XPS 15. It's like the Mac Book Pro, but with more RAM + CPU. But still only 4lbs at 15"

When I travel I use a Surface Book 2.

Also, Picard.

Is that a U-class or real processor? Dell XPS 15 is my daily, travel or home.

Wife and I plan to watch this at some point. Was trying to figure out if the kids might like it.

My kid has never watched ST:TNG. That first season was too corny, even for an 8 year old. Therefore, he'd have no appreciation yet for this show.
