Why would that be relevant or allowed in a politics community? Fuckin’ lemmy.world, I tell you what.
Because rule 1 there is "Post only links to articles? Geesh. It’s not like that’s been a rule for 2+ years and the community a place to discuss actual articles.
- Comment on Green leader Zack Polanski backs legalisation of all drugs 3 days ago:
When I was younger, I’d have thrown my support behind this.
Now that I’m older and world-wiser, I’m much less on board with that. Cannabis? Fine. Heroin? Whatever, you do you. Cocaine? Absolutely not. Not that I’m against cocaine, it’s just that people on cocaine are really, really annoying.

If Paramount doesn’t pick it up, they should at least offer the idea to David Mack or one of the Trek novel authors. Would make a great series.

Lol, of course. I need to do a re-watch.

I’ve heard that before but cannot place it. What is that from?
- Comment on What's the most offensive word I can use that isn't a slur? 6 days ago:
For best results, it depends on the context.
For example, when I’m dealing with people who cannot (or refuse) to do the simplest of tasks, I’ve found myself muttering “ugh, just read the instructions I wrote you troglodyte”.
- Comment on What are your favorite Star Trek books? 1 week ago:
I just started this one yesterday. Enjoying it so far. I’m only a few chapters in, but it definitely fills in a lot of blanks from PIC S1 like “Who is Raffi and why are she and Picard suddenly BFFs?” It puts so much of the first season into context that I felt was missing when I watched it.
Thanks for the recomendation.
- Comment on Can someone find a redeeming factor about this game? Like anything good about it. 1 week ago:
Ugh, I had the Sega Master System version (same game) and it was pretty awful.
- Comment on Give one of your "skip" episodes a second chance every now and then. You might be surprised. 1 week ago:
Skip episodes become brand new episodes after enough time has passed!
They absolutely do! I was thinking that earlier. They become like your own personal “lost episodes”.

Fair (counter) point. That was basically a clip show which are fair game for skips especially with home media / streaming.

- Comment on Where do you guys start in a Lower Decks rewatch? 1 week ago:
I don’t think I’ve done a re-watch of LD yet, but I tend to skip very few episodes these days.
Like, I used to always skip “Take Me Out to the Holosuite” but I didn’t on the last circuit. It’s definitely not one of my favorites, but I did enjoy it that latest time around where I hadn’t before. So now I tend to watch them all even if it’s on my usual skip list.

Probably just smells like old upholstery. Taxidermied animals don’t really have a smell

I think I’m just gonna get some Pi Zeros + cameras and just roll my own. Probably use the NoIR versions and some cheap IR illuminators. Feed those into Zoneminder.
Bonus points if I can find some old CCTV cameras, gut them, and fit the pi camera to those optics.

That’s a real hero move, and I appreciate it.

Commenting so I can remember to check back for any suggestions. I’ve basically run into this problem:
- Comment on Funniest Exhibit at the Smithsonian 2 weeks ago:
I was thinking that or they just have a lot of them.
- Comment on Funniest Exhibit at the Smithsonian 2 weeks ago:
Neat. I find it interesting that you’re encouraged to touch the exhibit at all. Usually that’s discouraged.
- Comment on Deaf people get to avoid a lot of arguments 2 weeks ago:
The choice of words reminds me of one of the Comedy Central roasts. Can’t remember which one, but Marlee Matlin was one of the roasters. She’s deaf, but she can speak just fine.
Part of her set was, halfway through, she got Gilbert Gottfried (also on the dais) to “be her voice” for the rest of it. So he read her lines from the teleprompter in his way plus or minus a few tangents. Then this…
I lost it 😆

Uh, have you ever seen a heated argument in ASL? It’s intense.
- Comment on what's your take on employers banning the use of languages other than English between coworkers at the workplace? 2 weeks ago:
Not sure what country, but in the US, wouldn’t that technically be illegal (at least between co-workers)? I know some places, such as call centers, won’t let you speak another language to customers without approval (for liability reasons, I assume).
She would get very angry really fast if she heard anything in a language she didn’t understand.

- Not everyone is a goddamned literal Nazi.
Is Disney in the wrong here? You betcha. Are they a shit media conglomerate? Oh, boy, yeah. Are they anywhere close to what’s depicted here? Not even remotely.
Goddamn, it’s like people around here call everything and everyone they don’t like a Nazi. Starting to not even sound like a word anymore.

Keep this in mind when you see brand new accounts spewing out random news sites you’ve never heard of.
