The gambler’s fallacy is pretty easy to get, as is the Monty Hall problem if you restate the question as having 100 doors instead of 3. But for the life of me I don’t think I’ll ever have an intuitive understanding of the birthday problem. That one just boggles my mind constantly.

Releasing someone who made an extremely successful drug distribution ring while also threatening tariffs under the guise of a fentanyl crackdown.

Predictable behavior from someone who’s only consistent action is his golf schedule.

Sounds like some DEI talk to me, maybe someone should go report them or something.

Try some chicken and waffles when you get the chance - 5000 calories have never tasted so good.

They don’t directly mention it, but as I recall after that episode traveling at high warp speeds was greatly diminished and warp speeds above certain thresholds were only used in emergency situations/required special authorization. So not completely abandoned but they certainly didn’t build on the premise, which is a shame because I thought it was one of the cooler plot elements that was introduced in the series.

The Talos Principle - It’s pretty much purely a puzzle game with a nice dose of philosophy to drive the story along. Some of the later puzzles can get pretty difficult, and some of the optional challenges will likely take you a good while to figure out without guides.

I’d be fine with it if we could get some good “once in a lifetime” events occasionally. I’m in my 30s and pretty much every single one has been bad so far.
