Didn’t opera get bought by some shady company years ago?

Yeah if they hadn’t struck gold with Jeri Ryan that whole situation would have been seen in a whole different light. She and the writers pulled that decision out of the gutter.

Vulcan in booty shorts.
- Comment on Why doesn't Star Trek use TrekLit for streaming shows? 1 month ago:
Almost nobody making the shows has read them, absolutely nobody in executive positions has read them, and only a small fraction of the existing fan base that they are tapping into have read them.
- Comment on new Star Trek Voyager videogame: Across the Unknown 1 month ago:
Two more seasons of strange new worlds after this one, with at least once season of academy, I would bet at least 3. Scaled back? Yes. But I wouldn’t say they are winding down. It’s the same pull back that every company has done since realizing their huge investments in streaming during the pandemic wouldn’t pan out.

Well, yes, we 100% do. But the above about shedding democracy was a joke. America needs to majorly reform our system. First and foremost by ending first past the post and the stranglehold of the two party system it enables.
- Comment on AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over 2 months ago:
Articles like this are being pushed by AI CEOs and investors to force the US public to pay for grid upgrades to support their profit making. Socialize costs, privatize profits.
If, like most Americans, you’ve noticed an increase in your electric rates in the last year it is in no small part due to the increased demand put on the system by AI data centers. You’re already paying more to prop this shit up because they’re chasing gains with no regard to efficiency.
