Yeah, I was about to say, 99% of people are either unaware or do not care. Don’t mistake Lemmy’s privacy opinions as representative of the general population.

Star Trek man sits funny.

For real this seems like a major red flag.

Awesome, the episode they added to the original Quake was fantastic so this should deliver as well. Also, I never played the N64 game either. Nightdive is too good for this world.

For real. I imagine they’ll be finding someone new, but no one will ever truly be able replace him.

I wish the people who comment before reading stayed on reddit.

Too many current-thing jokes has been an issue in 2/3 of the episodes. Forget aging well; the jokes didn’t even land now. For me, it’s 0-3, and I think I’m going to be dipping out unless I later hear it has a consistent return to form.

Let’s not think about the Reddit of today, let’s think about Reddit of old. Rome wasn’t built in a day.

I can agree with this to a degree, but can’t we just not think of reddit? I mean, back then, I don’t recall redditors obsessing over other sites as much as I have seen on lemmy. Digg was the top dog, and I don’t recall daily threads about reddit’s numbers or how it wasn’t matching up.

It was just it’s own thing and not constantly comparing itself to it’s alleged competition. I feel like that helped it grow into it’s own thing, and we should give lemmy a chance to do the same instead of trying to turn it into reddit 2.0. That said, I might just be forgetting—there could’ve been constant ‘sky-is-falling-because-we-aren’t-Digg’ posts—but I just don’t recall them.

While I don’t regret watching it—and I’d probably even throw on a new season if it gets one—I felt like it was missing any true classic episodes. I also kept having this strange sense of familiarity with episodes, as if it was just repurposing or rehashing older Star Trek plots.

I kept thinking, “Wasn’t there a TNG/DS9/Whatever episode that explored this same general concept/idea, but better?”. It felt like it was maybe borrowing just a bit too much from it’s inspiration.

I was on reddit before the digg exodus, and the current state of lemmy feels somewhat reminiscent of those times. When communities are smaller there is just a completely different feel than the 1 million+ subscriber goliaths some subreddits became.

What is the reason for removing search functionality? Is it really just to make it harder to find what people want and potentially be served more ads? Hopefully site:whateverbutprobablyreddit.com never goes on the chopping block.

It felt very much in the vein and quality of the previous Guardians films to me, so I figured, if people loved those, they would also love this. Personally, I thought it was probably one of the better non-Spider-Man marvel offerings we have gotten in a while. The last phase had a lot of underwhelming releases.

Atomic Robo! Not enough people talk about Atomic Robo.

To name a few other sci-fi ones: Saga, Low, Black Science, and if you love pulpy sci-fi there is also Fear Agent. They have some really cool art too.

From Black Science #1:

Edit: Oh, also want to shill James Stokoe’s Aliens: Dead Orbit just because I’m in love with the art in everything he does.

Yeah, luckily, around the time I started to burn out on the endless events and reboots in Marvel and DC was when I feel like Image Comics really hit its stride. I wanna say early to mid 2010s(?) they really started branching out/expanding in what they published, and finding recognition and success—well, as much as comics can expect—for it.

Now that you mention it, it does give off those 5th Element vibes. Though, The Endless Nation is actually comprised of Native Americans, so it’s the complete opposite of aliens in both the extraterrestrial sense and the immigrant sense.

No one really knows what went down, but at some point they went into isolation for a considerable time, then emerged as a technological superpower. As the comic puts it:

There is no record of the internal revolution which resulted in the Machine State, only the oral history of cast-out believers who now reside in the dead country. One day there was no Machine State, and then the next there was.

I think I’ve watched it completely at least four separate times; I love it so much. It’s just such good fun.

I’ve been watching the X-Files. Back in the day I’d only ever sometimes catch episodes here and there on TV, so this is actually the first time I’ve sat down to watch the whole thing. Only partway through season one at the moment, but really digging it.

Same, I had a knee-jerk angry reaction until I saw that it was free.

It’s legitimately one of the best Star Trek movies.
