I work for a college. We use our internal link shorteners to make sure a given link points at the latest version of a resource and measure engagement by seeing what is the best way to get important information to our students and faculty. (Did people actually click on that announcement in our LMS?)
They’re terribly useful for us.
I’ve been using it in lieu of google maps for quite some time now and it seems to work fine. It no longer assumes I’m The Blues Brothers and direct me to drive straight through shopping malls.
so Twitter was vi then he turned it into edlin and now he wants it to be emacs.
You don’t need to. It might even help you figure out if you’d like Lower Decks.
HE DOES THE WALK
They released earlier to coincide with screening it at SDCC.
The main thing I disliked is that it kinda of removed any chance of us getting a “Spock is split into his human and vulcan halves by a transporter accident and they totally don’t get along with each other” episode down the line.
Similar to how we refer to TOS episodes as “The Nazi Planet” and “The Gangster Planet” this one will be “The Alzheimer’s Planet.”
Did Spock forget how to read?
Maybe it’s a nod to Discovery establishing he had a learning disability similar to dyslexia.
M’Benga
You mean “Dr. Seen-Some-Shit.”
I like that the original away mission failing wasn’t some weird magical thing - it was just a mission that went bad in a fairly mundane way.
This episode should have started in media res, with the away team already on planet and having lost their memories. Once we got the explainer as to what was happening, then we could return to the Enterprise to show the growing crisis there, and finally wrap everything up as the episode already did.
So, does a genetic engineering lab now have the corpse of a man from the future with all the future vaccinations, immunities, and whatever else that may provide?
Is this the Kirk that was in the project Phoenix project?
After the first episode of the season and seeing how he handled himself as a sparring partner, M’Benga should henceforth be called Dr. Seen-Some-Shit
I noticed Kirk didn’t have a “thing” in TOS. It’d be funny if he at least thought having a warp catch phrase was stupid and didn’t do it in SNW.
Civilly? I deleted my reddit account but I really don’t feel aggrieved by people who stayed there.
One will be TOS style, one will be TNG, and one will be DSC. Just to mess with us.
Their head shapes still look a bit discovery inspired, which was a nice touch.
I used to have an antenna hooked up just to watch Svengoolie on MeTV and live tweet along (then they changed the schedule.)
Being able to switch to Star Trek and just zone out was nice too. Sure I can pick and choose specific ones on streaming, but there’s episodes I’d otherwise not think to revisit which pop up on broadcast.
I stand by my head canon that Galaxy class ships are equipped to deposit saucers on planets to establish starter colonies. It’s already basically a floating city in space.
