In the US a few decades ago the big rail companies were given the ultimatum to upgrade their safety infrastructure or have a national speed limit of 79 mph imposed on them.

Project managers I know just forward emails and ask me to help keep them on track.
Hey they didn't get that fancy PMP cert to do work.
/s, not /s. Project Managers are a force multiplier, some are just a negative force multiplier.
Disney is also actively arguing in court that if you use the free trial you can't sue them for anything. Ever.
So there's that to worry about now.
If you don't care how long it takes to get there and can effectively use the ITN you don't even need to leave going that fast.
Would love to get in on this if you're still going.
They played with it in DS9.
Quark is disgusted his mom is a "twisted degenerate" that campaigns for (Ferengi) women's rights and wears clothes around the house and such.
It disables scrolling. I'm sure there's a use case but mostly it's annoying. I don't think every program/OS respects it anymore either.
The prequels had a mountain of books/comics/shows backing them up and filling out the parts that were lacking. ( i.e. the huge gapping holes in tone and execution ).
The sequels.... there's not much to salvage. They're more very pretty hole than substance. To the point there haven't been more than a handful of attempts and they've basically been ignored/sidestepped.
"Maybe we should have planned the trilogy" - JJ after RoS
Disney allocated a billion dollars to a trilogy of movies and didn't even ask for outlines of scripts first. I know JJ is "mystery box guy" and all but the amount of hubris to think they could just wing it on the strength of the IP is staggering.
Cloudflare's counterclaim system didn't open a ticket when the notification email was replied to.
That's the kind of nonsense you expect from a local municipality hosting solution. Not one of the biggest on the Internet.
RSS feeds are so nice. I'm still frustrated that Facebook moved away from an in-order timeline. (Or would be if I used it for anything other than family chats)
An ordered list of things you haven't seen yet on instead of a mostly random list from everywhere. Amazing.

I remember them being noticeably louder. Unless you were in a library or a movie theater I don't know why people cared all that much though.
