Reminds me of this

Starships were meant to fly

My wife (and probably many others) disagrees, but I’m firmly of the opinion that Starships by Nicki Minaj is an uncertified trek banger 🙌

Harbinger is the worst episode of ENT. The captain and the alien of the week are maybe 6 minutes of the episode. The rest is a bunch of bullshit with resolving the conflicts in the crew that had been brewing all season.

Only saving grace is the fight scene, but then the macho American space marine gets schooled by lieutenant mister bean? Lolwut

What the hell do they think this is, Hamlet, Gone With the Wind, Ruggles of Red Gap? It’s a goddamned space western, aliens in rubber masks, you know the drill!

Edit: also this, meant only as a jest 🖖 :

me: Now when it comes to Ferengi-centric episodes of DS9, Looking for par’Mach in All the Wrong Places, while good, doesn’t hold a candle to subversive gems like House of Quark (which actually preceded this episode), Bar Association, and Little Green Men.

them: shutup shutup shutup!

Gah what a fucking tool.

Well at least he isn’t getting paid when I rewatch Ace Ventura 2 on plex 😎

Don’t you get it? You cocksucker! I work for Dick Jones! Dick Jones! He’s the Number Two Guy at OCP. OCP runs the cops.

That’s cool sure.

But on the other side: Reddit betrayed the social contract and deserves to rot in consequence.

One droplet of lost engagement becomes an ocean; just stop showing up 🤷‍♀️

Sokath my eyes uncovered

and all distros jumped into the honeypot

As a filthy casual this is the most distressing part.

I’ve observed the situation shift in just a few years from

“Winter Systemd is coming”

To

“Winter Systemd is here, it’s everywhere, and i hate it”

It’s obvious in HN because of the wide range of obscure topics (eg installing scaffolding on old British smoke stacks) that occasionally arise to the front page, all the ones on that topic are quickly flagged to oblivion.

You don’t have to be a genius to see the pattern 🤷‍♀️

Oh is it finally time to eat?

I want to see an animated series of the future federation historians that have to read the copious amount of unhinged reports from 24th c. starfleet captains.

Yeah great suggestion, Wrath of Khan is an excellent entry point.

The enterprise being an underdog the entire time is a great showcase for the best of trek: the crew and the problem solving 👌

Wow, Devils Due is like the second episode I watched (first was Silicon Avatar) and I remember enjoying the ending where Picard mimics all her tricks before telling her to fuck off.

In hindsight easily a notgreat episode, but I remember it fondly.

cut and tr are like the wonder twins of text munging

Form of truncated whitespace! Shape of single whitespace! 😂

How can you be so close to right about þis and still be wrong?

Honest answer: I’m sloppy on mobile

Better answer:

sort | uniq -c has entered the chat 🤣

Also every Ben Stiller romcom (and most his other movies too). Dude’s got a hangup on cute blondes, we get it already.

Me when my 13yo daughter shows me how she can draw on her ipad on her mint box because she found, downloaded, and stood up weylus all by herself.
