  Most any criticism of the show is true. I will day that it is a good series to watch with people who haven’t watched Star Trek before because it is a little un-Trek-ish and there is less to stop and explain. Also, since the mission is top secret it has little overlap with anything except SNW.

  As a Star Trek fan, I was happy to get more Trek, the same as I was happy to get more Picard (that S2 was a pain though!), Lower Decks, Prodigy, and even the Short Treks.

  My wife was pulled into the world of Star Trek by Discovery (a full 36 years after I’d started watching the franchise) and now she loves it and wants to watch all of the other series. So, Discovery gets a point for that.

  (I haven’t seen Section 31 yet. It is supposed to be very bad.)

  Oh for sure, they can be aggravating but I haven’t watched any of their vids in over a year. I wouldn’t take their advice the same as how I wouldn’t want anyone to take my advice. Just because someone says they work in IT doesn’t mean they do, right? I used to work in a pharmacy and people would ask me for medical advice when they saw me in town, but I didn’t work in the dispensary. I knew the answer to their question, but I was not going to risk it.

  I was about to watch when I realized who it was. To be honest, many of the Linux YouTubers have turned me off for different reasons, but I never enjoyed this guy’s videos and I’m not the only one…

  I guess I should watch this to give a decent opinion. Other distros are just as political and decisions reflect their stance (like how Alpine doesn’t include Xlibre for reasons). As it stands, I’m fine with that.

  I am unaware of the particularities surrounding the Debian situation, so I’ll still need to play catch up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the games you played in your youth that you still play today?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Quite a few, but the one that I’ve played the most is Super Metroid. I do like to play through the different Mega Man games too and a few others, but they are almost all well known games.

  I have rediscovered other games that I totally overlooked because I thought they were too kiddy or too hard like The NewZealand Story, Gimmick and so many shmups.

  I had a light for mine. Took 4 AA batteries. Amazing that I never complained about that… But my mom made us use rechargable batteries.
