“recent trend” as in like when mass effect did it 16 years ago?

It looks like Skyrim in space and I don’t really get why anyone was expecting something else

these damn fools porting it to the two most popular platforms instead of the one you in particular wanted. they should fire whoever made that choice smh

and they’re probably right. they’d honestly just be stupid to charge less.

you could also just crop it out in most of them

Kirk and Uhura are real ones for never telling McCoy that Spock had a phase of being proud to be human until he got dumped by Nurse Chapel. He never would have let him live it down.

I think the difference is that a lot more English speakers watch anime as it’s airing in Japan now. Anime used to have to be at least somewhat interesting for someone in the west to even be aware of it, but now we get to see all the shit they’re putting out that never would have made it over here before.

Yeah. I really don’t get why people are so opposed to the idea of a musical tbh

god fediverse drama is so dumb

It’s not like this situation was unmanageable before kids had cell phones. You call the school and they relay it to the kid.

the fact that even malware developers can’t write something in rust without making sure you know they wrote it in rust is hilarious to me

I love the original animated series. It’s really laid back and relaxing and they get to do weirder stories. TOS would never have Kirk learning magic so he can fight in a wizard battle to save Satan.

I liked this episode, but I thought the opening Lower Decks bit was pretty unfunny. Is the actual show different? It felt like all of the characters were trying way too hard to be quirky and the jokes didn’t really land for me.

I would recommend skipping TOS as a show, and reading the James Blish adaptations of it and TAS.

This seems like a crazy suggestion to me. Kirk, Spock and McCoy’s onscreen chemistry is half of what makes TOS work.

it seems like the kind of thing that’s obviously an out of universe design choice. it’s like asking for a lore reason why the male Enterprise crew members stopped wearing eyeshadow after Kirk’s five year mission.

Making new “TOS” episodes that take place during the five year mission would be cool (maybe even setting it after TOS and making a “season 4”), but I really have no interest in them just remaking episodes that already exist. It just seems like a waste of everyone’s time and budget they could use to make something new.

IT’S MICHIOVER

he’s in good shape, but he’s not like unbelievably ripped or anything. the author just seems furious he has a hobby for some reason

finamp is missing enough features to me to make plexamp worth paying for to me (not automatically switching to transcoding on mobile data, not supporting opus transcodes)

which apps? I tried jellyfin and plexamp works better than any of the jellyfin android music players I tried.
