    The "What made you happy today" thread!

    Yesterday I got my new keyboard - apparently arrived over the weekend surprisingly, even though it was only sent out Friday. Going to take some getting used to after having used the same KB for like 8 years at home, but it's nice to not be dropping letters randomly anymore. Also got a...

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    Something to keep an eye on: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/08/us-sues-realpage-claims-rental-pricing-algorithm-used-by-landlords-is-illegal/ And doesn't Starbucks in Canada have to contend with Tim Hortons anyways? First comes the coffee wars, then the Fast Food wars.

    Star Trek General Discussion

    At a surface level it's still got the general appeal and potential self-insert kid characters, and they make sure to explain any Trek-specific things well for the kiddos, then they throw in the deep cuts for the parents watching it with their kids(and the adult fans of course), like how...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    I don't know that the translating Murf episode was pointless - it helped expand on the Cetecean Ops stuff, which actually matters more in this show.

    The "What made you happy today" thread!

    FDA just approved the updated COVID boosters! FurAffinity just came back up finally after the registrar hack on Tuesday! And I just ordered a new keyboard finally - it doesn't tick ALL the boxes I want but it's close enough for the price to give it a try.

    Star Trek General Discussion

    The death trap battle also could easily explain what happened to the Enterprise E, given how many ships were lost, and how many Sovereign class were involved.

    I have the original, but ended up preordering this one, because it just looks that much better

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    Problem is EU users are a significant chunk - between guests and registered, there was ~100 million users over the past year. Doesn't mean he won't do it to save face though, I suppose.

    Star Trek General Discussion

    Yeah, Prodigy is the stealth Voyager sequel you're looking for. And it's not that FAR form traditional Trek either to be fair. The opening pilot does have a bit of a Clone Wars feel, but you get some classic Trek style plots after that in the following episodes.

    Random Thoughts From Out of Nowhere

    Generative AI is artificial fae. They generate "illusions" that seem too perfect, yet have "seams" where they can't get things quite right. They take mortal concepts, ideas, and images for their own use without regard. Any requests of them have to be worded very specifically to get what you...
