I’ve used this for a while now, and it’s an excellent app. It’s genuinely refreshing to have apps that just do their job without fuss or feature creep.

That’s pretty rough in a lot of ways, but man would that make ASCII box-drawing easier.

I didn’t see the content of the post, but the modlog lists the following:

Removed Post “Unpopular opinion: Wesley Crusher is not the worst TNG character… Alexander is.” reason: Rule 1 + No be cares about your “unpopular opinion” luke warm takes

Loved the Clint Howard cameo! Pretty amazing to still have actors all the way from TOS appearing!

Strange, might be that app, but that seems odd. Here’s what it looks like on my end (on desktop): https://i.imgur.com/9PU9A19.png

Off-topic question, why does your username have a “bot” tag? Are you commenting through a different API or something?

I remember seeing a few in an auction a while back. Two things I recall:

1. Very few of them are full rectangular pieces; they have cutouts for filming which detract from them being pieces to hang (though that’s a matter of preference)
2. Holy hell they were expensive

Seems a bit disingenuous to compare the niche of tech folks that used Google+ to the niche that use WeChat, with the later “niche” being… China…

Not everyone has to agree that dominating a country’s social media usage is a good goal, but it clearly is the goal for many companies, and they’re going to continue to persue it. Perhaps users of social media should redefine success, but for creators of social media platforms there are absolutely clearly defined measures of success and failure.

One of the things I really like about TNG is that the longer seasons allowed the writers to take more risks outside of the standard “planet of the week” episodes. Some of my favorite episodes are those that dive deep into some of the lesser seen characters and really flesh them out in a way we don’t usually get to see in more modern television. It depends if you’re more into this vs the more traditional plots, but if so I hope you’ll really like the late season episode “Sub Rosa”.

Was anyone saying it was dead? I guess it took a hit when What went down, but I don’t think people are going to stop listening to music…

This is a good reminder I should get back on soulseek, though; I used to use it and it was pretty great.

I don’t know if it’s a canon connection to Star Trek in particular, but I loved the nod to the trope of using Toronto for NYC/Chicago/wherever.

I’d definitely be down to participate if this gets going! Was the other sub daily? weekly?

I went through these challenges a while back; they were super fun! I remember at the end there was something about “notify me if there are more challenges” but I don’t believe I ever heard anything.

I’m a sucker for puzzles, and the write-ups for the challenges were the right level of silliness.

Even just clicking the link above the subscribe button did it for me.

Seconding the recommendation for thunder; it’s the first one I’ve found with a proper compact mode. Everything is simple and fast without any frills.

Super interesting read! Thanks for sharing.

I’d be interested to see how impactful a sparse representation would be. It’s an optimization I know to have been useful from trying it on AoC and similar cellular automata problems, but I have no clue how it would mesh with the other optimizations made here. I would guess its effectiveness would also rely heavily on the particular ruleset you were simulating, as well as your starting state.

Amazing as always!

As for regulations around personal logs, Star Trek has a long and confusing history with how it deals with privacy. I swear we’ve seen personal logs pulled up numerous times before (that one episode in TNG with Geordi and that woman’s dog?), including “Crisis Point” as mentioned.

Given that, I’d take it that Starfleet’s rules regarding personal logs are primarily focused on their admissibility in court, rather than general accessibility.

Honestly, the sets and costumes for SNW are setting the bar for TV shows in general, let alone star trek. Just as much as the new plots, I’ve been looking forward each week just to the visuals.

Wonderful to see you here, USSBurritoTruck! These posts are amazing as always! That catch about a possible Roger Korby connection is fantastic, and with all the focus they’ve put on Chapel’s relationship with Spock, I wouldn’t be surprised to see that come into play.
