Ah, okay.

That Tawny Newsome show sounded like such a cool premise and angle on the universe, could have been great but yeah I assume it got axed.

Academy also has an S2, not sure if that drops first.

Honestly, I’m kinda happy for Trek to go on hiatus for a while. The Discovery era has been more miss than hit, especially if only considering the mainline live action shows (DSC, PIC, SNW) and with the Skydance acquisition I’m not looking forward to Ellison Trek.

Maybe in another few years, with fresh writers and show runners who are actual Trek fans, etc. but for now, give it some distance and let the influence of Kurtzman/Orci/Abrams be left behind.

The current exploit was found with AI and released (after it was found and kept secret by the original dev in the hopes of keeping GTA VI runnable) but the other infrastructure is still basically the same as it ever was. Post jailbreak, running the Linux ELF loader you’re booting a pretty standard Linux kernel and distro.

If you’re interested in PS5 Linux, I wouldn’t let the drama over the exploit get in your way.

That said, until it can reboot without involving another Linux machine to deliver the payload, it’s a fun trick but you might as well just buy the SoC for $250, a Steam Machine, or build a PC to have a better supported Linux flow.

Haha, I phrased it that way to note that it was a ratings decision. Anyway, hope you like it.

It’s just awful. The second to last episode includes a good little speech from Archer that really works as a bookend of the show. Then the last episode completely crashes and burns trying to bookend the entirety of 90s Trek. If it’s your first time, you kinda have to watch it, but just know a lot of people (myself included) don’t consider it canon and skip it on every rewatch. It’s that bad.

It’s probably more evenly split than VOY. The show builds in a reason for everyone to get semi-naked and it leads to some pretty egregious scenes for the male 18-49 demographic, but there are plenty of cases with shirtless or underwear clad men too. Everyone on the show is attractive and fit even by TV standards.

Watch Enterprise. It’s a divisive show in the community, mostly because it made a decision to be “sexier” and then got dark in response to 9/11, not to mention the whole theme song debacle or the must skip series finale…

However, there is also a lot of good Trek in there and some insight into humanity post First Contact but pre Federation. You owe it to yourself as a fan to at least give it a chance.

Then you get back to the old way of punching holes in a paper ballot and well… Have you ever heard of a “hanging chad”? That shit has issues too.

Where I vote the paper ballot doesn’t have identifying info and is in your hand for like 10 seconds between the voting machine and the ballot box. Someone would have to be in the polling place accosting me to check how I voted, which would be an issue no matter how the ballot got generated.

Haha, I was going to make that joke but then thought aluminum would probably be just as bad or worse than glass.

Obviously the ones on the Enterprise are made of some crazy space age transparent ceramic.

Wow, SNW over DS9? Hot take.

Picard and Discovery were both pretty awful.

I enjoyed the first season of Academy. It is a bit teen drama for some though, and it picks up in the far future Discovery timeline which means its basically a different continuity from the other series.

SNW is good in spurts, not nearly as bad as Discovery/Picard, but it does have some pretty clunky episodes as well as ones that are pretty great.

As others have said though, Lower Decks is easily the best new(ish) Trek show but it’s a love letter to 90s Trek so I wouldn’t watch it until you’re ready to get the myriad references.

It’s almost like we’d have no problem with it if everyone in our society didn’t need to work to survive and it didn’t accelerate the planet becoming unlivable while making the worst people alive even more money.

Weird.

No more algorithms! Quicksort? Banned. Sieve of Eratosthenes? Banned. Djikstra’s? Super banned!

If you even mention a red black tree, you’re the one that’s gonna be red and black, son.

Oh shit the third Semiosis came out? Loved the first couple, how did I miss that?

Yeah, I agree, I’m just a little triggered. The issue I have is less that it wouldn’t make sense and more that the entirety of the Discovery era shows are laced with cameos and the novelty isn’t there like it was for those TNG cameos.

… Really I just have ENT PTSD.

What they should do is have the entire series be a holodeck program Riker is running during the events of a TNG episode. That’ll definitely be a satisfying finale, right?

clunky and slow interface of email that for some reason we continue using 30 years later

Email is actually great, it’s the original fediverse - anyone can start a server and interoperate with everyone else. With a decent client it doesn’t need to be clunky either, although with 90% of people stuck in webmail I can understand why people think it sucks.

This sucks, caught her work in LA and DC and her walk in exhibits are phenomenal.
