“Always test your prototypes on the intended final target well in advance just to be sure”

I was not a fan of seasons 1-3 pretty much at all (3 was ok), but 4 was one of my favorite seasons of any Trek and 5 is also very good. I would be interested to read a follow up post when you’re finished!

In another thread @[email protected] described this plot as “Extremely TOS” and I went from not-hating-but-not-loving it to having much more positive feelings. Is it silly? Yes. Is it humanist? Also yes. And what’s more Star Trek than that?

Bing and all Bing-based engines stopped being able to show Reddit results.

Not accurate, actually!

Instead of predicting the future they are trying to force one upon everyone.

The deflector on the nebula class just always looks like a dumb little mouth to to me

The moderator to user ratio on the fediverse is orders of magnitude higher than commercial platforms. Even Lemmy.world (a large, loosely moderated Lemmy instance) has again, orders of magnitude more eyes on its content than reddit.

This means that even if a chatbot gets invented that is impossible to distinguish form a human, mods will more readily be able to tell if it is pushing a narrative/shilling products.

LOL is this OC? Nicely done.

Correct! Teenage Mutant Binja Gurtles.

If the article doesn’t define what “AI” means then the article doesn’t actually mean anything. Market research studying what people know about a vague and undefined term like “AI” can ultimately only produce undefined results.

It’s like asking people their feelings on “woke” or “god”. If everyone is talking about something different then nobody can have more or less understanding of it.

This hits hard. Is it your OC?

Activitypub accounts are portable actually. Lemmy is not as slick as Mastodon with this feature yet but will likely get there.

Is something finally going to federate with bluesky?

YES haha he really got some space smarts by then

Scott Bakula is a good actor but he sold the adventurous naivete of S1-2 Archer much better than the moody and distraught Archer in S3. Thankfully season 4 went back to the original spirit.

From an e-waste perspective not having a battery is really cool. The article doesn’t mention this, but the plastic appears recycled too. I wonder how it types?
