Clearly he should rename threads to Z.

I’m still pretty new to the Apple ecosystem but already got sucked into multiple devices. The YouTube channel “Proper Honest Tech” has been the only “in depth” source I’ve used, though while some things are fairly rudimentary or easy to find, he’s had a few videos detailing apps or features I hadn’t touched.

One thing I desperately want to make much better use of are shortcuts–the app is basically a (very) high-level programming language.

Totally an aside, but it’s funny I’ve been mostly out of networking and ipsec/cybersec for… a very long time… and only recently been realizing how far out of date I am while looking into pfSense and OpnSense info after finding an issue with my consumer/gamer router.

I’m very much going to be hitting up other resources mentioned in this thread too.

Great, I’m the jerk that shows up a few years afterward, inspecting the errant arm and elephant trunk wondering what the actual F the original programmer was thinking.

Then I cut off the trunk and slap a dog nose on it because I hate VB.

WHAT HAVE I BECOME!?

Star Trek: Picard, S2E06

“Hey, everybody, there’s a shit cloud coming! Run for your lives!”

Normalize and index your damn drawers or you’re deadlocked!

Oops, sorry, uhh let me contact the admirals… oh uh, probably should hit the sonic shower if you got any on you…

I’m assuming you wish you’d gone for marine biology instead, sharkfucker420?

“Software engineers aren’t real engineers because they don’t work on physical engines.”

The only annoying issue I’ve had so far is Fitness not reading the activity data properly.

I GOTTA CLOSE MY RING, MAN! (I’m waiting on my watch U2 so I can get into fitness+ properly)

What are ads?

Bah! This is clearly a windows meme! Take it back to c/linux!

(I’m over there too)

The D: is a CD-ROM. Geez!

Dang whippersnappers.

My shoe can practically run Linux as a desktop OS.

Though to be fair, there’s no real reason anything that runs 10 can’t run windows 11 besides Microsoft’s artificial compatibility list.

Yep, aside literally one episode for about, what, 15 seconds, we saw some strange new aliens.

And yes I’ve been very jaded against the gaslighting about these shows thanks to the brutal subjugation of the reddit sub. I’ve seen fake gushing over these shows too many times, and I just pictured poor Wil Wheaton making the post.

Goddamn pay-to-win model!

When millions of dollars are at stake in the streaming wars, and I see dozens of near-zero-cost posts about how “this is exactly the Trek all us old Trek fans have been waiting for dudbebrodudes!! It’s so amazingly goodlier than other stuff!” on reddit and now on lemmy, you’re damn right I am.

This show is badly-written CW schlock. It ignores canon, it is utterly devoid of coherent, consistent writing, and it lacks any of the soul of TOS, TNG, DS9, and at least most of VOY.

It is not good trek, and I will argue to the fucking death with the idea it is.

Lower Decks actually has the soul (not to mention the classic structure) of Star Trek, even as a parody.

SNW is only slightly less-abysmal than DIS. At least it still isn’t as bad as Picard.

Not when I’ve seen this very same post dozens of times about this very same show on that other network.

Can we not assume everyone is telling the truth on the internet? That’s how we get cults.
