  • I'm of the opinion that nu trek is the word drek in sci-fi. TNG, DS9, TOS, hey all had great things to say, they're were awesome shows that made you think

    VOY abd ENT we're hit and miss, especially Voyager was way more popcorn, but still at least it looked and felt like star Trek.

    Then came discovery which was just hilariously bad in all respects.

    Star Trek Picard almost outright ruined TNG for me, I watched TNG at least once a week and I forced myself through Picard, they said it would get better, it just got worse and worse. I haven't watched a single episode of TNG since, it's been years now.

    If you want to watch good modern star Trek, watch "the Orville", it's exactly what star Trek TNG would be rebooted for 2020. Made by a huge star trek fan, it really REALLY gets close to the point that it's just actual star Trek.

  • Strippers help children feel better

    Priests help kids feel their junk

    Fuck all religions, all churches should be replaced by strip joints, that would make the world a better place

  • I'm just amazed

    Is MTG on some sort of redemption tour? MTG, of everyone?

    Makes ya think, if there is hope for her...?

  • Aaaaand we have a wiener winner

  • Yeah I get it that the medical.field could have, should have spent way more time on women's issues, too many illnesses have been ignored with women, and yes, all that has to change

    But this? I thought this was always obvious

  • You want companies to stop supporting and using your shitty standard? Because that is how you get customers ntonstop using your standard and by extension, your companies

  • Any good place to start on a complete arr stack?

  • This shit has been ongoing for decades everywhere. I read about this shit in Europe back in the 90s already, not much has changed

    But I already see tankies furiously typing in this thread to make clear this thing we're seeing is absolutely not true, China is awesome, the Chinese government is awesome and Pooh Bear is.... Fuck, I messed it up, now I'm on a tankie list...

  • Hello, indeed

  • Europe isn't a nation, it's a group of nations and there is a big reason to support it now

  • Full on 20

  • So what is that number really?

  • I feel like Jenny is the kind of person where if anyone would ever decide to string her up from a tree that loads of people would come to watch and nobody would cut her down.

    Everybody would just watch and feel a weight lifted from their shoulders

  • the company owners aremulti million dollar assholes, that's why we behave like this

    Stop the multi millionaires

    Nobody should be worth anything over 10 million. Anything after that should go 100% to taxes.

    With that, governments can actually give out free healthcare, free education, universal basic income and all on a high quality because it will have the funding now that we finally stopped a few from hogging all the world's resources

  • And do not be mistaken, the US wants this for Europe too. They want a few rich people to dictate everything world wide.

    Eat our chlorine chicken!

    Fuck. That. Shit.

    Europe is already moving in wrong directions here and there (hello chat control) so we gotta be enormously careful that they won't bend the knee on anything else

  • From the article:

    Satya Nadella is burning decades of customer good will chasing the latest tech fad.

    I'd disagree with hat sentiment. I'd put it as Microsoft is finally giving people the final push they needed to break the Microsoft chain they had around their ankles.

    Nobody uses Microsoft products because they're the best, they never were, they never will be. Microsoft is the VHS of the video tapes, it is as big as it is due to deception, marketing, and force. L

    Let this be the obligatory "install Linux already" post, but I'm saying it as "switch everything away from US vendors to open source" as they all have turned evil and corrupt. Open source software is the only software left that can still give users what they need in a fair way.

    Install Linux, setup some nextcloud instance, break that fucking Microsoft chain

  • Yet everyone uses it.

    It because it's great, it's the absofuckinglutely worst of the worst, but they got key players to use it, the rest is forced into it with their closed off ecosystem.

    There is a reason why Microsoft web products work so much worse oninix than they do on windows, and it's exactly what you think: sabotage. Word drops half of the text you type? Must be a Firefox issue, no? Yeah no, change the user agent to say you're edge on windows and all of the sudden it works. Still shittily, but it works as shittily as it does on windows.

    When you feel the need to sabotage your already badly working products just to force your customers to stay with you, it really does show that you're just full of shit

    Fuck Microsoft

  • And all of this again shows that the US loves to poison all of its citizens, as long as a tiny few of them get really rich from it.

    The US is a shit hole country and I don't understand why anyone wants to live there. I considered moving there years ago and to this day I can't understand what I was thinking

  • This right here is the reason why piracy is as big and healthy as ever.

    It's not about the money. Hell, we're spending thousands now whereas before it was at most a few hundreds per year. But now we can watch whatever we want without bullshit, without advertising

    It's not about the ease of use. We now spent countless hours on building a libraries with everything we'd like to watch which I know will always be there

    It's not about wanting to be "a criminal" or not caring about artists. Most artists get shit from Spotify, for example. We'd rather pay a few hundred per year to some foundation that will pay artists a fair share

    It's about not wanting to deal with these huge anti social power monger companies and their shitty policies anymore.

    You can't watch this, we won't allow it.

    You can't watch that, you live in a country where it's bad for our profits if we allow you to watch that.

    You can't watch this one because it's better for our profits that we dropped this so you now need to pay double for some other provider because we decided so.

    We need to monitor your every move and excuuuusee me siiiirrr, i need to inspect ya aaasshole now... Please also give me all your personal information, minus the "please" because we'll just take it

    You know, we're so big now, and you have so little options, we'll make you eat h add anyway even though you pay us

    Fuuuuuuckkkk all of that.
