Off-topic, but wow. That cookie permission pop-up is pure cancer.

I figured Gen Z is the lemon in this case.

So, it took a lot of effort, but I cut it down quite a bit to what I think are the most important parts.

I related to this on a visceral level. Brevity is hard.

There it is. Was wondering if there was any relation, to the point where I had half a mind to look it up myself. Thanks for saving me the trouble.

It’s nepotism and cronyism all the way down.

It’s easier to bamboozle someone than to convince them they’ve been bamboozled.

Get hired, show up, join union, walk out.

Her brain sure isn’t.

I think you just described “business” in general.

They’re in cahoots with the frogs.

For now.

Agreed on like 90% of your takes. The “real”-feeling near-future sci-fi was excellent. And the thought put towards the physics was very much appreciated. Where we diverge a bit is on the romance track. I didn’t have an issue with the direction, and was actively rooting for them. Their affection felt organic and natural. But as you said, it derailed a bit and, combined with career choices, left me disappointed at the very end. But the good was so freaking good.

I’ve had a hankering to re-watch lately. I’ve got the DVDs, and they will do in a pinch, but it’s hard to go back to SD anymore. Last I checked the show was in rights purgatory, with no discs in print or a way to stream it. Maybe I’ll finally get around to reading the manga.

Me, upon seeing the response: Hahahaha! Man that was fast. Dude always has the perfect reply ready.

5 minutes later: tries to squint through Klingon makeup 🤔

One trip to IMDB and Memory Alpha later: …holy shit.

The next day: I should post a reply.

Now: We’re in now now.

I AM WARNING YOU MISTER!

Goals require long term work, commitment, and developing new habits.

This is why I’m doomed.

For the 404s, try adding ?p=1 to the end of the URL. This lets me use all and subscribed (mostly) as normal.

I think we are all SoL on the error pages though.

things have been awfully quiet which makes me think something with federation has stopped working with Lemmy again

Things haven’t been in sync for a day or two at least. Looking at a post from both kbin and lemmy (specifically startrek.website), there are times when not all of the posts are there, or there are comments missing, or the votes are just stuck. And this morning all/hot was almost completely static for hours.

/all does the same for me

Me, before clicking the link (because kbin doesn’t handle inline thumbnails well): If that’s the entry for “twelve cloaking warbirds” I swear…

Next headline: “The economy is doing super duper awesomesauce but Americans keep saying shit’s fucked: Economists baffled”

One would think a legal name change would have been in their top 5 things-to-do-after-the-war list.

Spoiler: he did.
