No argument there.

Its dangerous software that should not be in the hands of the general public until it has been made to not answer these types of questions. And yet apps are specifically being built for these types of questions for ChatGPT.

Thats like knowing gasoline shouldn't be drank but opening a gasoline serving lemonade stand.

Every banana in existence is in this picture.

This, the power is needed to maintain the subspace bubble, being thrown from said bubble from losing power has been shown to be dangerous. Maybe you just drop out of warp, maybe you drop out too close to something and have no control.

Fireplaces have a flue. If you close it the smoke has no where to go but the house.

The whole idea still smacks of dumbfuckery, don't get me wrong; but its not as much of a lost cause as you're thinking.

Username checks out.

Mr Boimler! Beam Moopsy over to that.... thing and let's call it a day. We have a dinner celebration to attend.

This was a millennial film. Boomers were parents when this film aired.. Hell, so was a good portion of Gen X.

Lol, this post has everything, even Sherlock holmes fan fiction.

Hahaha, Canada has so much booze. We have a ton of fine ryes and most of the best booze comes from the EU/UK anyway. We also get a lot of south american and Aussie wines.

We didn't need the US, their booze was just cheaper. Then trump fixed that.

Anyone contributing to open source either does it:

  • on their companies dime, which means they work for a rare company building open source solutions
  • at the end of their day, on their weekend, or during their vacation

Most FOSS devs are in position two. By a large margin. They could be relaxing, or earning more money doing freelancing to make ends meet, but instead they are trying to build something they want to see happen. That requires focusing on the important tasks and that often means not having time to spend on poorly reported bugs that are actually users just not RTFM and opening issues. It wastes the devs time, and projects with too much of this have development stagnate and are frequently shuttered.

And devs that just do this to get a better job stop contributions once their new job takes over their life, and then the project suffers.

Users need to appreciate FOSS devs more because some of the most important projects we need in 2025 are developed only because they want to see them happen.

 

I've been seeing a lot of startrek.website shares I do showing the wrong desc and image in the unfurl on the posts lately. It was a few of them a week at first, but it's become multiple a day now.

As the most recent example, the "Look at the time, its 7 of 9" post unfurls like this in signal:

Is this a known issue? Is there a better place to report instance issues? It kind of looks to me like UUID reuse leading to new posts displaying old images.

 

So much food.

 

Title says it all. He sells Scrooge better than any other movie adaptation I've seen.

 

As the title says, I'm curious if they ever named or revisited this Human civilization in the later parts of the timeline in any way? It seems like too good of an opportunity to not revisit it at some point.

My searches did not reveal any answer, so thought I'd ask my fellow trek nerds.

This is the most unfiltered article I've read from The Atlantic... by the time I finished the second paragraph I had to re-read the title to understand how I got here.

Edit: To be clear, this has been revealed as satire, its just so close to reality one could be forgiven for confusing the two.

 

Just had this one shared with me directly on signal and could not find it in here, nor could I find a source. Too good not to share though. If someone knows the meme creator I'll update this with proper credit.

 

Riker came down on a whole other deck and wants answers.

 

Is the darkspace theme something that comes packaged with Lemmy or something the server admins are throwing together? I love where it's going but its in need of some love.. there's nothing to make the posts readable against the background.

Complaints are not intended here, I could likely help if someone points me to a place where I can make PRs.
