- Comment on 6 AM Monday. Dreading whatever fresh hell awaits this week. Cranky, definitely getting a cold. Barely awake. Husband starts blasting this song that is now stuck in my head for all eternity. 6 days ago:
I swear, the people behind that show really out love and care into it and it shows. The casting and art direction was superb, and finding Rockapella put it over the top.
- Comment on iCloud private relay 6 days ago:
Not much to describe. I’m on iOS 18.6.2 using Mlem app. While private relay is on, opening the app results in a blank screen. Can’t even do a refresh. No content loads. Safari and other apps on the same device work fine. Turning off private relay fixes the problem.
I will edit this post with the IP range being used.

It looks like a font substitution issue. You don’t have the type face installed that was originally used to create this PDF. And the font was not embedded in the PDF. So whatever you’re using to view, the PDF is utilizing something like Aerial or Helvetica as a stand in sans serif type face.
- Comment on UK's third-largest steelworks collapses into government control 1 week ago:
How do you fuck up steel? Something every country needs for infrastructure and construction.
- Comment on Microsoft says U.S. law takes precedence over Canadian data sovereignty 1 week ago:
I wonder if Microsoft would say the same thing to China?
- Comment on England to sell eight times more council homes than it built last year, report finds 1 week ago:
True!

Ugh. Brutalist architecture is the worst.
- Comment on Frances Ryan: Young people want to ‘go private’ – I’m a lifelong supporter of the NHS, but I can see why 1 week ago:
Privatize the profits, socialize the losses.
- Comment on Frances Ryan: Young people want to ‘go private’ – I’m a lifelong supporter of the NHS, but I can see why 1 week ago:
I have private insurance in the US. Trust me, it’s no faster after everything has gone private. The only difference is you pay two to three times as much, and end up saddled with medical debt. You should be thankful for NHS.
- Comment on Jonathan Frakes Surprised ‘Strange New Worlds’ Star Trek Spoof Was Controversial; Talks Directing ‘Academy’ And More 1 week ago:
I think the only controversy is that this series spends too big a chunk on “silly” episodes like this. Puppets. Singing/dancing. Holodeck spoofs.
This would be fine if it were a 23 episode season. It’s 10.
- Comment on Simon Pegg Developed Star Trek Spinoff Movie About Jaylah; Wanted Archer’s Dog In ‘Beyond’ 1 week ago:
What would Archer be up to thirty or forty years after Enterprise, I wonder?
- Comment on Interview: ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Director Talks Challenges Of Shooting Kirk’s First Time In The Big Chair 2 weeks ago:
This show is hitting all the wrong notes for me. I don’t want to see Kirk’s early adventures — I want to see Pike and his crew. I especially don’t want to see Kirk portrayed by someone who looks and acts nothing like Kirk.
- Comment on What's your thoughts on this? 2 weeks ago:
I agree with you. Most energy comes from renewables these days, and your wi-fi usage is a negligible amount in the scale of things. How about going after corporate energy waste like AI instead?
- Comment on David Ellison Shows Off His New Throne at Paramount, With ‘Top Gun 3,’ ‘Star Trek’ and ‘World War Z’ Called Priorities 2 weeks ago:
World War Z would make a great anthology series. We’ll probably just get another Brad Pitt movie that has nothing to do with the book instead.
- Comment on About Star Trek Starfleet Academy blacklash 2 weeks ago:
Ok, I’ll bite. It just looks like another season of Discovery. Same look and feel, same era, many of the same cast members. And since I didn’t care for Discovery, I doubt I will care for this either.
I really wish SkyDance would bring in a new showrunner after this round of Star Trek programs is over.

Should’ve enforced your patents.

Ha! That just means all the content deleted by users who left Reddit is actually inaccessible.
- Comment on Fans (and some Picard cast) won't let the Legacy concept die 3 weeks ago:
Shaw was a great character, so of course they killed him off.
- Comment on Stunning new data reveals 140% layoff spike in July, with almost half connected to AI and 'technological updates' 3 weeks ago:
Next year — the summer of rehires after CEOs learn employees can’t really be replaced by AI.
- Comment on Watch This Documentary About 'Star Trek: Phase II' and See What Could've Been 3 weeks ago:
So glad they pivoted to making a movie instead. The budget was much larger and the art direction immensely helped the franchise going forward. Phase II sets and costumes looked like a cheap cosplay remake of TOS.
- Comment on What to watch next after ST: Voyager? 3 weeks ago:
Enterprise is good. Don’t skip it, just skip the intro song.
- Comment on Houston Pastor convicted in $3.6M fraud case returns to Church after prison release. "It's such a blessing to have our visionary pastor back at church. We are so excited." 3 weeks ago:
If only. Instead, people really are this stupid and gullible.
- Comment on Recieved an ultra slim keyboard in a box big enough for a microwave oven (packing material in comment) 3 weeks ago:
They probably ran out of the smaller size boxes. Rather than holding your package, the puller grabbed whatever was available that it would fit in.
- Comment on Microsoft is killing off Windows 11 SE, its Chrome OS competitor 4 weeks ago:
They were stupid not to give it away for free, with a paid upgrade path to the full version.
- Comment on Zuckerberg says people without AI glasses will be at a disadvantage in the future 4 weeks ago:
Zuck says a lot of things. Reprinting his sales pitches as news is a disservice.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x04 "A Space Adventure Hour" 4 weeks ago:
I’ve entered the mourning phase for Star Trek and have finally stopped watching. Similar to what happened with Doctor Who. Instead of telling good sci fi stories, it’s morphed into “Wow whacky can we be?” It’s all singing all dancing puppet show hour now.
It doesn’t help that it’s on the “we fire people to please Trump” network.
- Comment on Puppets Explained, Sybok Teased, TAS Episode Scrapped, And More ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ SDCC Reveals 4 weeks ago:
I would much rather have seen a TAS-style SNW episode than puppets.
