Star Trek Social Club•Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x10 "New Life and New Civilizations"
1·4 months ago> Batel’s Gorn DNA infusion, the treatment from the chimera plant, and her earlier encounter with the Vezda are stirred up into a convoluted sci-fi stew to explain all this in a dialogue scene that tries with all its might to use sci-fi-y terminology to convince us this actually makes sense, but mostly just draws attention to what a whopper of an ass-pull it all really is. The overriding sense one gets while watching this is, “Well, they’re just making stuff up now and pretending it holds water.” It really doesn’t. But I have to admit that I respect the commitment to the sheer insanity of the concept, even if the effort and seam-hiding are lacking. In the end, it’s basically, “because we said so.”
god bless Jammer.

Star Trek Social Club•'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Producers Promise Season 4 Will Be Better
241·4 months ago> None of this “Universal Star-child” bullshit.
Bang on. It’s the same reason I couldn’t stand Discovery. There’s a universe ending problem and you alone are the key to solving it? Blech.
Fan fic with higher production values.
I think Batel was a well written character, otherwise.

ActivityPub@programming.dev•Two Approaches to Solving the “Quiet Fediverse” Problem: Conversation Backfilling Mechanisms
2·5 months agothorrjo@lemmy.sdf.org I would say that I respect hongminhee@fedibird.com and a note was added to link back to the original.
I dislike AI generated content but am okay with it as long as it is labeled.

3·5 months ago> Look, TNG got a sequel series (Picard), Voyager got a sequel series (Prodigy)… what we want is for DS9 to get one
You and I both know a Garak miniseries is the only appropriate answer.

Star Trek Social Club•Why doesn't Star Trek use TrekLit for streaming shows?
5·5 months agoHonestly it could be something as prohibitive as not having secured film and TV rights from the authors.
I can imagine that doing it after the fact is often quite expensive.

Fediverse memes@feddit.uk•Every Mbin Comment is in the Form of Mentions
4·5 months agojust to correct something, NodeBB will not send a mention unless you are specifically mentioned. We do auto populate a mention in the text box though, so it’s probably happening because of that.
What we also do is send the message to everybody so everybody has a copy. (Everybody is addressed)
e.g. you should not have been mentioned here.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•There's a lot of discussion of Mississippi's age verification law for social media today, after Bluesky announced they're blocking the state.
10·5 months agoThanks for posting about this thenexusofprivacy@infosec.exchange
I’m interested (in a tired defeatist way) in what I need to do to stay on the right side.
It sounds like geoblocking is probably the quickest legally safe course of action, so perhaps it’s bye Mississippi too…

4·5 months agooh gosh judgement rites… the fact they built a full on 2D dogfight simulator in that game was epic.
I got good enough at it that I could shoot down Trelane.
Spoiler alert — it didn’t matter, he stranded you on the planet anyway.

2·5 months agoYes… but also WordPress is supposed to be a blogging platform, and now it powers like half the web.
People hack around the arbitrary limitations of software all the time!

Although tbf I think the port and starboard thrusters are aft facing.
Spot on about the airlock though.
