Telodzrum,

Yeah, IDK. As a huge Trekkie, I’ve been nothing but pleased that Trek forced its way into the mainstream without changing its progressive this-is-for-everyone values.

Telodzrum,
Telodzrum,

nuTrek (the Abrams movies) and Picard S1 were way more action than I was expecting and it made me like them a lot less than other properties. However, the vast majority of Trek is not action-oriented at all and is more about traditional science-fiction stories — providing an abstraction of real-world issues and approaching them through a philosophical lens with spaceships, alien races, and esoteric concepts as allegory.

Telodzrum,

Makes sense, I love GamePass for titles without significant replay value anything else is a value-add. BG3 is hugely replayable.

Telodzrum,

Don’t come in here with that bullshit.

Educate yourself, son: navalpost.com/what-is-distributed-lethality-conce…

Telodzrum,

Damn straight

Telodzrum,

You shouldn’t put up with that noise. You guys literally burned our capital to the ground in 1814.

Telodzrum,

I always thought that uniform jumper over the point collar and tie look was slick af and a really smart way for ENT to show the growth and transition of Starfleet from a near-military Earth-only organization to what we see in TOS and TNG.

Telodzrum,

It’s from early TNG IIRC. They were as shiny as that blackface on the Klingons in TOS.

Telodzrum,

Corruption is too competent a reason; I blame indifference.

Telodzrum,

S1 TNG is fucking bonkers. I know a lot of the plots are straight retellings of TOS stuff, but a bunch of the rest feel even wackier than TOS on it’s most TAS day.

Telodzrum,

It’s just the car gun from The Jackal.

Telodzrum,

There’s really only one banger TNG movie; Generations, Insurrection, and Nemesis all have pretty glaring issues.

Telodzrum,

I totally get it, there are some episodes and TOS movies like that for me. Hell, for a long time I thought I was the only person on Earth who liked ENT.

Telodzrum,

It’s a jam, idgaf who knows that I think so.

Telodzrum,

It’s quintessential Adult Contemporary— a total ear worm that gives you warm fuzzies while at the same time being obnoxiously vapid.

Telodzrum,

It really doesn’t. It feels incredibly dated. A lot of that is because games since then have iterated on systems, concepts, and philosophies which were introduced or revolutionized by HL; but, there’s a lot that just isn’t done anymore because games now do different things (because they are better) or similar things quite differently (because that’s better).

Telodzrum,

The narcissism of small differences

Telodzrum,

Tbh, I like it better than instantaneous travel to any point in space.

Telodzrum,

What happens to the conscious self when the Enterprise D separates the drive section from the saucer section?

Telodzrum,

Dude’s been dead to a lot of us for a very long time.

Telodzrum,

The Gaiman one? Big swing and a miss on that episode; it’s rough.

Telodzrum,

Sito Jaxa has been used as a reference for character growth on the last two episodes of LD.

Telodzrum,

Lower Decks is the best Trek since Ent went off the air, IMO. I didn’t care for Disco, largely. Picard was more action than I was in for at first. I’m really enjoying SNW, though.

Telodzrum,

The second half of season 2 is the only part of Disco that I actually enjoyed. Well, aside from anytime Tig was on screen.

Telodzrum,

Dude, she’s amazing. I will watch or listen to anything she’s so much as attached to. Her podcast is insightful and funny. One Mississippi was hilarious and dark. Her episode of Birbiglia’s podcast is one of my favorite podcast episodes ever. She made Army of the Dead for me. Just an absolute sardonic delight.

Telodzrum,

Yeah, they hired the Morbius director. What could go wrong?

Telodzrum,

Nah only John Williams and Hans Zimmer are up to this task.

Telodzrum,

There’s so much more game after it.

Telodzrum,

The chip in the Series 6 is essentially identical to the one in the Series 9 and all in between. Your explanation works for a lot of cases, but not this one.

Telodzrum,

Is it? Thank fuck. That was an inexcusable lifetime for a wearable chip.

Telodzrum,

We stopped all the subscriptions in the spring. I pay for Usenet access, but it’s less than Netflix alone used to be. It’s automated and I don’t have to worry if my services have what I want to watch.

Telodzrum,

Yeah, this is even creepier than that Indiana coach who kissed his son open mouthed.

Telodzrum,

Tuvok is a leader and a security officer, hope is a force multiplier. He’s good at his job, both with people and systems.

Telodzrum,

They’re, historically, Modern Palestine’s closest Western ally, basically the only one in Gaza after the 2007 elections and subsequent violent purge of the PA from the region and destruction of Fatah during the brief conflict that followed.

Mint, One of the First Budgeting Apps, Is Shutting Down (archive.ph)

I’ve used Mint for many years. It has never worked well, its budgeting tools are inaccurate, and the UI is garbage. I guess you can say I’m not too broken up about this. I do very well with an Apple Numbers spreadsheet every month. That said, if there are other better options out there, I would consider them.

Telodzrum,

It’s the only one of these I like. I think it’s great.

Telodzrum,

Yes, but only via direct play, it’s not going to be doing any transcoding at all watchable level.

Telodzrum,

What about the Bud Ice Penguin?

Telodzrum,

The meat of those financial reports rely on Arabic Numerals and everything is OK over there, right?

Telodzrum,

I just dumped out in the 7/11’s bathroom down the street from my house over the weekend.

Telodzrum,

Fucking exactly what I thought of!

Telodzrum,

They’ve been saying this, and getting traction on it, for decades.

It’s really easy to tell the people who just became aware of issues in the region over the past few weeks.

Telodzrum,

The effective minimum wage in 2019 was $11.80. It’s important to talk about these things in context, so we are better able to address the correct problem.

Telodzrum,

I’ve been pleased with my Arc performance.
