I applaud the writers of that episode for doing that, but I’ve seen too many episodes/movies where people use alien technology with no indication they have a hard time with the interface, or where a Federation ship outright trades equipment with previously uncontacted aliens, and it just works. Hell, even Trip’s reproductive system is so compatible with an alien’s that she can get him pregnant! And don’t even get me started on how often people just walk up and use a control panel to access sensitive systems without needing to present any kind of credentials.

That’s called having just one distro.

I’m not gonna listen to Geordi because he lives in an alternate universe where everything is compatible with everything else.

I’m blocking you, but before I do I want you to know I hope you go out like Hitler did.

FAFO

Linus brought a Unix-like kernel to the masses, but he didn’t invent the concept. That goes to a bunch of people at AT&T in the 1970s.

Thanks for the tip!

A freelancer selling their work for money seems like a weird thing to refer to as a cash grab.

Of course development is gonna be slower after supporting Reddit become non-viable; he instantly lost most of his potential future income from the project, and I assume he’s too busy paying his bills to devote much time to what is essentially just a hobby project in a field with a lot of competition. Maybe I’ll jump ship to get a more up-to-date Lemmy client, but for now it’s still the best one I know of, so I’ve gotten my money’s worth already.

His latest post of from 5 months ago, and the last one before that is from about 10 months ago. That makes me suspect the pace of development is slow, but we’re probably due for another update fairly soon.

What’s yours?

My brother in Christ, the average person doesn’t even know Lemmy exists.

People don’t know about the weird chunk sizes representing inequality.

They do know about Chocolonely being marketed as a more ethical product.

It’s not representing anything will if people don’t know about it. And I think most people who shall out the extra money for a brand like Chocolonely are doing it because they’re already aware of what a clusterfuck the chocolate industry is.

A drone made up to look like some kind of weird flying animal.

The only cost from piracy is opportunity cost.

Anyway, I didn’t see anyone in your post that supports the idea that piracy is rampant.

Where I come from you don’t get to choose your team.

Wait until you hear about rent.

Strange, I’ve never found a use for a lightning cable.
