… but but but he did the Kessel run in 12 parsecs or something maaaaan

It reaches out it reaches out it reaches out it reaches out — One hundred and thirteen times a second, nothing answers and it reaches out

> Batel’s Gorn DNA infusion, the treatment from the chimera plant, and her earlier encounter with the Vezda are stirred up into a convoluted sci-fi stew to explain all this in a dialogue scene that tries with all its might to use sci-fi-y terminology to convince us this actually makes sense, but mostly just draws attention to what a whopper of an ass-pull it all really is. The overriding sense one gets while watching this is, “Well, they’re just making stuff up now and pretending it holds water.” It really doesn’t. But I have to admit that I respect the commitment to the sheer insanity of the concept, even if the effort and seam-hiding are lacking. In the end, it’s basically, “because we said so.”

god bless Jammer.

The PR comments suggest that making the various changes to the backend were too large to justify, and a front-end only approach would be preferred? smitten@key.portend.place

It raises a good point though, where if you serve web+ap://, it’s not understood by clients that are not aware of this scheme. If there were a way a client could communicate whether there is a protocol handler registered, then the server could tailor its response.

Are there implementors of web+ap? I’d be interested in adopting.

I assume the fallback behaviour is to just assume https?

The concept sounds excellent, although there is fairly limited mobile support.

Since NodeBB is an installable PWA it would be definitely nice to have it supported there as well.

rimu@piefed.social interesting idea… I know Evan has some thoughts about this as part of his ActivityPub HTML discovery project

I am not sure why they did not settle on protocol handlers but I’ve tagged him for comment

> None of this “Universal Star-child” bullshit.

Bang on. It’s the same reason I couldn’t stand Discovery. There’s a universe ending problem and you alone are the key to solving it? Blech.

Fan fic with higher production values.

I think Batel was a well written character, otherwise.

thorrjo@lemmy.sdf.org I would say that I respect hongminhee@fedibird.com and a note was added to link back to the original.

I dislike AI generated content but am okay with it as long as it is labeled.

Sorry you’re just in the wrong because you don’t know how to easily spell my new app nncjcosiwhebf

duh.

> Look, TNG got a sequel series (Picard), Voyager got a sequel series (Prodigy)… what we want is for DS9 to get one

You and I both know a Garak miniseries is the only appropriate answer.

Jon-Pincus hey check out that topic loading from within this NodeBB ;)

Honestly it could be something as prohibitive as not having secured film and TV rights from the authors.

I can imagine that doing it after the fact is often quite expensive.

just to correct something, NodeBB will not send a mention unless you are specifically mentioned. We do auto populate a mention in the text box though, so it’s probably happening because of that.

What we also do is send the message to everybody so everybody has a copy. (Everybody is addressed)

e.g. you should not have been mentioned here.

Thanks for posting about this thenexusofprivacy@infosec.exchange

I’m interested (in a tired defeatist way) in what I need to do to stay on the right side.

It sounds like geoblocking is probably the quickest legally safe course of action, so perhaps it’s bye Mississippi too…

oh gosh judgement rites… the fact they built a full on 2D dogfight simulator in that game was epic.

I got good enough at it that I could shoot down Trelane.

Spoiler alert — it didn’t matter, he stranded you on the planet anyway.

Sound a bit like XCOM2 set in the ST universe. I’m game.

If we’re seeing the wind down of new Star Trek shows but a resurgence of games, I am totally on board for this

Star Trek Armada reboot please 😁

Well, the good news is at least with conversational backfill, you’ll be able to pull the entire reply tree 😁
