For Seven’s sake, too bad Jellico didn’t get stuck in the Delta Quadrant.

Gosh, I love that quote; just rewatched Generations last night as part of my memorial activities.

If Wil Wheaton was never in TNG for the youth appeal, my mom might have never watched The Next Generation as a tween/teen, and by proxy, I may have never watched watched it. Also, he was really fun in Star Trek: Prodigy.

Yes, finally, someone else who recognizes the meme potential of this frame!

You sure that’s not just Prepotente from Dungeon Crawler Carl?

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.

XFCE!

In all serious, while I use XFCE on most personal things, if I was pressed to choose between the big two, I think I’d choose KDE over GNOME; in fact, when I had to loan my younger sibling a laptop recently and that laptop was too old to run Windows 11, I put them on Debian with KDE. I think KDE is also my backup plan if major applications start dropping xorg support before XFCE has implemented sufficient Wayland support, although they seem to be making progress.

Out of the box, KDE tends to be more Windows-like and just better for my workflow in general, while GNOME can just be… weird. Like, I don’t quite hate GNOME as much as I used to - I plan on throwing it on an old Surface tablet soon - but like others have said, it’s very opinionated and doesn’t like customization and whatnot. I also resent GNOME in the sense that they tend to make design designs (such as in GTK 4) that reduce ease of interoperability across different open source desktops.

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.
