see c/UGEM for UnderGroundElectronicMusic. :) (I was going to set up something like that when saw someone else had already requested to make it. Good stuff. Populate it.)

  • It'll keep a trekie going.

    At least, once you get adjusted to it being like-trek but not-trek.

    I find it helps to just remind yourself, maybe at least a couple times an episode, "it's not written well", and then once you accept that, you can relax and enjoy it easier.

  • 1 & 5 may be my faves. (I know. I'm in a minority with that.)

    1's still less dull and faster paced than 2001.

  • Surprisingly, I've stumbled into re-watching Scorpion.

    Better, more fun, than I had remembered.

    ... Still watching 2-7 DS9 episodes each night too though.

    <insert the "why not both" meme>

  • Oh I so nearly get the reference... what's that movie the last bit's from?

  • D'oh!

  • My fave show of the 90s.

    Still regularly rewatching.

    ... I usually skip the title sequence though. So perhaps I could do a little ffmpeg magic and cut the long ds9 title sequence out and replace it with a 4 second "the siskos" jingle. :)

  • Wait.

    5!?

    ...

    Also...

    Oh my. I hadn't realised that. Poor Diana. Still working with him, watching him pass on commands offered him, while she's been told she was dumped for his career, that he intentionally stalls and sabotages, right in front of her. Narcissistic sociopathic move. And what, her empathic abilities just feel the delusions of this madman while she's being gaslight?

    What a piece of work is Riker.

  • Already is.

    And wtf graphs

  • can haz dropping android, and going for a linux or hurd or bsd or ironclad kernel instead, and back to a more proper unixy userspace?

  • So, a lert is readable, and yell'able. &, I don't think lerts get blown in Star Trek. At least I don't recall a "blew a lert". We'll figure out wtf is a lert yet.

  • Who does Number One work for?

  • Madness.

  • Ferengi are only a couple social revolutions away from becoming members of the federation.

  • Got me imagining a story line where we discover the Pakleds we've seen, are nothing like what Pakleds usually are, and that they'd been drugged to make them stupid, then duped by those who drugged them, to send them forth across the galaxy to find stuff to make them go. Perhaps even on a global scale, for generations, risking population collapse and extinction as all their men are sent into space. But a small enclave managed to escape the scheme exacted on their world... erudite, affable, amiable, prudent, generous, insightful, quick witted, jolly, light spirited, bright, present, conscious, conscientious, not at all like what we know them as, when in their drugged and hypnotically enslaved zombie state of being. ... Once alleviating them of this chemical lobotomy and shackle, the Pakleds could become superb members of the federation. [I'm quite looking forward to seeing the light and nimble, fresh, bright, witty, pleasant, considerate Pakleds now... ]

    Could be a good story to have the federation introspect on all those times they looked down on the Pakleds in irritation and distrust, treating them with scorn, contempt, and dismissal.

    Long live Rodenberry's vision.

  • Glad there's a dissident movement.

  • "The bloody Cardies" will give all but the best of us a sour impression of them if having been through war with them, and tortured by them.

  • Thanks for mentioning SliTaz. It made my shortlist too. Didn't think anyone else would mention it. :)

    SliTaz evokes a lot of love and joy. It's like seeing a microbus... People just smile. Makes the world lighter.
