The top finger kinda gives it away imo
- Comment on Cheeto devouring his nation 14 hours ago:
I am a happy /c/fuckai subscriber and I am still comfortable admitting that image generators can be great for memes and quick jokes.

- Comment on Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feeds 1 week ago:
“EEE” doesn’t really make sense in this context, and even if there was some way for Meta to affect non Meta-owned instances- ActivityPub is an open protocol and Meta is allowed to use it however they want.
- Comment on Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feeds 1 week ago:
Got it, very interesting! I look forward to it being worked out soon, Wordpress federation is awesome.
- Comment on Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feeds 1 week ago:
Still not fully integrated, but it’s nice to see broader ActiviyPub adoption beyond “follow a handful of users who opted-in”. I never expected Meta to be the company inching towards federation and not bluesky. Makes me wonder if Tumblr will ever follow through with their promises to federate.
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
Jellyfin is great, but in defense of Plex, they announced that remote streaming would require one of the two parties to have a Plex pass was coming back in March so I don’t know if it’s fair to say they are holding anything hostage.
- Comment on Harris Yulin Gave 'Deep Space Nine' One of Its Greatest Performances 1 week ago:
I [posted last month on this topic(startrek.website/post/22538516) but I too forgot how many bangers are in Season 2 especially, they just tend to get overshadowed by the later seasons.
- Comment on Introducing the Fediverse: a New Era of Social Media 1 week ago:
This is great, I just cross-posted it to !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com hopefully someone can post it to Reddit. It’s really nice to see a intro to the concept of the fediverse that doesn’t get bogged down with technical details.
- Comment on Paramount+ Announces Fifth and Final Season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 1 week ago:
I say this as someone who generally liked all the new shows, but since the premiere of Disco in 2017 this whole era of Trek has felt unstable.
Again, I liked everything that was produced, but I also feel that these “premiere TV” styled, $5 million+ budget/episode series are clearly not sustainable business model for these shows that are also only on air a couple of weeks out of the year.
- Comment on Is it really doom scrolling if it's just true? 2 weeks ago:
Exactly, otherwise it’s just, well, scrolling.
- Comment on Official Season 3 Trailer | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2 weeks ago:
It was two years…
- Comment on To whom it may concern. 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think starfleet captains have the authority to command the hearts and minds of their officers.
- Comment on Is slrpnk.net down for everyone else too? 2 weeks ago:
It got cloudy
- Comment on Now that PewDiePie is on his Linux/engineering arc, could he help boost the Fediverse? 2 weeks ago:
Not liking someone is not a good reason to root against decentralized platforms, IMO. The entire point of decentralization is that nobody gets to control the experience and who is/isn’t allowed to participate.
- Comment on How will we deal with all the broken images? 2 weeks ago:
It’s also an avenue for attacks.
- Comment on Today is June 1st, the start of Pride Month. This scene from "Blood Oath" weighs heavily on my mind. 3 weeks ago:
FWIW I agree, but I would say imperfect instead, on account of the many trans people I have heard say they related in some ways.
- Comment on Today is June 1st, the start of Pride Month. This scene from "Blood Oath" weighs heavily on my mind. 3 weeks ago:
I just watched this episode recently. If Klingons don’t care why should humans?
- Comment on Shout Studios have uploaded What We Left Behind to YouTube. 3 weeks ago:
For anyone who hasn’t seen this, it is an excellent documentary and well worth it even if DS9 isn’t your favorite.
- Comment on Proof that Patrick Stewart exists in the Star Trek universe 3 weeks ago:
This is the best thing I’ve read in weeks

Y’all will always blame the woman for the actions of a man.
- Comment on One Bad Mother? In Defense of Star Trek's Lwaxana Troi 4 weeks ago:
jesus christ why do some of you people even watch the show
- Comment on How can I contribute processing power to the community? 4 weeks ago:
A Fedi instance requires a time commitment, there are some good suggestions in here but I recommend some alternative frontends.

- Comment on An EXTREMELY Simple Guide to Mastodon 4 weeks ago:
When using the official Mastodon app (as suggested in the guide) “instances” are not a factor at all (unless the user specifically goes out of their way). A new user could have never even heard of the term “instance” and the above steps would work fine.
You don’t just download the app, create an account, and go.
Actually with Mastodon this is literally how it works.
- Comment on Visited Vasquez Rocks 5 weeks ago:
I visited once and it is really funny how you drive through normal looking suburbs thinking “there is no way we are anywhere near Mintaka III” then suddenly there it is.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Potentially unpopular protip: I’ve blocked most of the “prolific” posters. My entire feed was becoming repurposed memes from 2015.
I’m happy there are people out there dedicating time to keeping Lemmy “active” but that is not how I want to live my life.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
I love being able to have the small-forum feeling of my home instance but also feeling connected to communities elsewhere.
- Comment on Neville Page Says ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Season 1 Klingons Were “A Salty Broth” 1 month ago:
This is my not-safe-for-Reddit opinion but I thought the S1 Klingons were great, interesting and impressive.

Turns out good web design skills does not always translate into other skills.
