DS9 is about the only 80s/90s Trek series with an almost completely watchable 1st season, though.

As stupid as it is, at least this attempt at reviving Winamp doesn’t seem to have any rhetoric about how it’s going to be “built for the glorius inevitable agentic AI future revolution from the ground up” and talk about how “curating music has never been easier” because their “most advanced music AI in human history” takes away the need to have any personality, taste, or ears of your own.

I mean, the Blu-Rays are still easy enough to find and rip, although you have to spend $40 on season 1 because they never released reason 1 as one set. But honestly, giving Paramount cash in any form isn’t that compelling.

Hey, sneaking Alexander onto the holodeck is more than Worf ever did as a father.

I’ll have to see if this is in the officially published edition, but I’m currently at my dorm and both my Tech Manuals are at home.

One I bought in a used book shop in Sedona, and the other I got with a big load of Trek books that someone gave away back in 2025.

Uploading a gz source archive to a Git repository is absolutely cursed. Still, looks like a cool project.

I’ll also add that if you do enable SSH and are stupid enough to expose port 22, then at least make sure you have key-based authentication instead of password authentication and keep your keys safe.

I could never get Gnome Network Displays to work, but it’s worth a shot.

I saw my baby crying hard as babe could cry. What could I do? My baby’s love had gone, and left my baby blue. Nobody knew

Personally, I think the most scarring sci-fi moment I ever had was the Doctor Who episode with the TVs that eat people’s faces.

I feel like at the very least, if season 4 never happens, I’m assuming that some time in the 2030s any leftover material will get turned into novels and/or comics.

I already enjoyed the lone Orville novel, Sympathy for the Devil, even if the choice of the

for its plot was a bit cliched.

I haven’t read the comics yet, although seeing their premises, some of them seem a bit camp.

Looks like that site is dead and has being an AI slop domain squat.

Technically, Fandom is MediaWiki, just used for its evil aims.

Since Trek is nearing a big lull in activity in the next year or two, I think that might be the optimal time to start up a Memory Alpha fork.

I will admit Lower Deck is always a bit crass and that element never goes away, but the characters develop really well and it’s impressive how attached they get you to them in a total runtime shorter than TNG season 1, and the show gets surprisingly emotionally sincere as it goes on.

And I’d say seasons 3, 4, and maybe 5 have what I’d call legitimate contenders for some of the franchise’s best episodes. Honestly, if it’s really hard for you to watch season 2, just skip to Wej Duj and watch from there.

But honestly, if you can’t get past the crasser elements, I get that.

Bang, bang, Mak’zel’s silver hammer came down upon her head. Bang, bang. Mak’zel’s silver hammer made sure that she was dead.

I agree with my sister that it should have been a flashback later in the season; they didn’t need to tell us so directly in the first episode.

Then again, DS9 did the intro text thing explaining Wolf 359, so…

Really? I think the show’s so gosh darn horny in that disgusting Rick Berman way all the time that I’d take almost anything over it.

Why does the Enterprise D bridge look like the interior of a 1990s car stretched out?

And being a former Vegas resident, DS9 accurately pictures being in one of the more run-down Vegas casinos.

Also, honestly, I think modern campus architecture has embraced this “casino look” you describe, weirdly enough.

You only watched season 1 of LD didn’t you?

I think part of it too is 32nd century Trek has already done a lot of sociopathic, who’s-gonna-stop-me, “because I’m evil”-type villains, and we need someone a little more gray, or at least psychologically compelling; as seen with Gul Dukat and Kai Winn, you can still pull off interesting but pure evil characters.
