+1 for Equinox. The Void from season 7 also covers similar ground, with a dose of 'maybe Starfleet's ways of thinking are correct'.

Cost them my Paramount sub. And I told them that if I was gonna subscribe to a service, just for Star Trek, it darn well better have all of it.

why go watch something that Paramount obviously thought was so terrible they had to redo it?

Sorry, that point-of-view just doesn't jibe with the immense amount of re-makes and sequels we've got out there now. If it was common to think a re-make means the whole thing sucks and shouldn't be watched, re-makes wouldn't be as successful as they are.

I'm really concerned about what I see happening in New Brunswick. Won't take very much complacency and low turnout for them to pull it off, and that is scary.

Get one of those telescoping type-C game controllers and turn it into a poor man's Logitech G Cloud. Those controllers usually have a battery in them, to top up the weak battery in the old phone. Use it on Wifi for Xbox Streaming or Moonlight, or put a SIM card in it for Xbox Game Pass or Geforce Now on the go.

I got the parts back. They are wrecked, one is broken in half, and they are covered with solder drippings. Going to trash them, they weren't worth a lot to begin with, just gonna take the L. I didn't pay them, they seemed huffy about it but whatever, I don't have to see them again. Thanks for the advice all!

I think it's great that I don't have to explain Lemmy to the normies. It's like a less corporatey Threads. Oh, OK, cool. Done.

Renoviction should involve some sort of lien, discharged when proof of renovations, sufficiently disruptive to need vacancy, are available. If the landlord can't prove they did that kind of work in say, 3 years, then they automatically owe the tenant as if it were a bad faith renoviction. Because, cmon, if they didn't do the work they had to kick you out to do, in three whole years, they evicted you in bad faith.

I laughed my ass off, and it was still Star Trek to the core. What's not to like? They are killing it this season.

I feel like I've heard more people complaining about people complaining about this episode than I actually heard complaining about this episode. Feels sort of preemptive.

What about shipping plastic? All those pallets wrapped? Or is the burden entirely on the consumer, like usual?

I'm still rocking a Mi 9T, and I'm going to keep using it as long as I can find new batteries to put into it. Or until notchless phones with headphone jacks come back.
