There will always be two types of users: people looking to connect and people looking to be entertained. Fedi is better at the former and commercial better at the latter.

Haven't used the command line since installing Kinoite, it's... weird.

I think it would have been cool to have 1 or 2 Kazon episodes, and then maybe a surprise one or two seasons later when Voyager discovers they had been followed or something. But it was just not a good idea to try and make them the main antagonists as long as they did.

OP is referring to Vulcan culture. Sarek's displays of affection would probably not be considered "restrained" in a Vulcan-Vulcan relationship.

Good advice, also Fedora's "atomic" distros are both bleeding edge and extremely stable!

I agree with you completely. No disrespect to Mint, but immutability is (IMO) possibly the most important advancement for Linux adoption in its entire history. I would love to see more distros release immutable versions.

I don't know if it's correct to say that Vulcan culture is unaffectionate, just affectionate in the way you prefer. Remember: Spock was played the way he was in the 1960s to demonstrate the distance humans are willing to go to tolerate other cultures, no matter how (literally in this case) alien.

There's definitely a lot to unpack in suggesting that their culture deserves to "fail" because they do not assimilate (lol) into your culture.

The function of accounts like the one you are replying to is to encourage cynicism and inaction among otherwise anti-fascist people.

Failing that, they will try to exhaust you with “debate”.

I did not realize you were OP (or even had a Lemmy account) 😂

I love the TOS Mudd episodes (and Roger Carmel's performance) but I have to agree with everything you said.

Mastodon has more of a flat structure and is designed to be more conversational which is why I think it hasn't caught on amongst celebrities and the pundit class. It's great for conversation but only so-so at self promotion.

@rysiek@mstdn.social's blog is one of my favorites. He really understand the social aspect to a lot of modern technology.
