bro this is like $30 worth of antipasto at the grocery store

yeah, i have 32gb and it still feels excessive. even with plex, firefox, steam and discord going i’m only at 8 gigs of usage. all i do on my desktop is game though, i have a server for virtualization and stuff.

lmao i misread that as garbage ready, especially given it was next to a dumpster.

I bet you they just automatically lump in all the data from those old plagiarism detectors schools used to use before “ai detectors” became the thing.

Naw. It was originally written for Kirk and Uhura, but when the NBC executives found out they were worried it would offend TV stations in the south. The idea of having Uhura and Spock kiss was brought up because Spock is half-vulcan (which NBC thought racists would find less offensive???), but Shatner insisted that they stick the original script (perhaps out of ego, perhaps out of artistic integrity, who knows). Eventually NBC ordered that two versions of the scene be shot - one with the kiss and one without. Shatner intentionally flubbed every single take of the non-kiss version to force the executives’ hands. It wasn’t the first interracial kiss on televion, but it was the first instance of a scripted kiss between a white man and a black woman.

The Star Trek universe’s first non-binary character

wow, not even the first crew members or first actors, they tried to claim it for the whole Star Trek universe. unbelievable. I think Dax would like to have a word with them.

That’s right, the entire species had evolved past having gender. That makes it even sadder/funnier that ST:D tried to claim it.

Jokes aside, I love that he kept the little mini-hologram of Tasha in his quarters after her funeral.

I don’t play STO anymore but I love that they added the Surak-class. Such a pretty ship!

lmao did they really? didn’t riker bang a non-binary alien (or try to at least)?

Possibly lt broccoli

i’m pretty sure it’s because they tried to make degrassi in space.

I’m not defending him, but let’s be honest with ourselves here. He was born nearly a decade before World War II. It’s amazing that he’s this progressive, plus he actively supported African American rights. And if you don’t believe me, why not hear it from Nichelle Nichols herself. Credit where credit is due.

Now tell me how to brew beer while I run and you’ve got me on board.

Oh thank goodness, that means it isn’t a long holodeck episode.

well then i’ll repeat what i said earlier. dang that sucks =(

Oooh, that’s a good angle. The Ferengi definitely get some unique looking ships.

It’s wholly owned and operated by Paramount Skydance. I’m sure they have to “pay” the parent company for tax reasons and stuff but why would that be an issue here? The content rights are all owned by the same company that owns Pluto TV. Maybe in Canda they aren’t offering it because they operate in partnership with Corus Entertainment?

The Queen of Shitty Robots herself designed a chair for exactly this purpose!
