It was a masterpiece. Definitely an outlier in its craziness, but there’s room for that in such a big franchise, and it will be missed!

At first, I really hated this show, and really just hate-watched the first season. But it grew on me and I think I thought of it as not-so-bad by the end of the season. But it kept improving, and I think it stands out as probably the best of certainly modern Trek.

This show was a rare combination of being funny and actually good sci-fi at the same time. It contrasted so much with another Star Trek show that ended this year where characters took themselves way too seriously, and every single day the fate of the whole universe depended on their one ship.

Freeze them! Frozen banana is even better than fresh in milkshake.

Yeah, Paikin is a great interviewer!

I saw it a couple of days ago and thought of posting it but that nobody at a Star Trek community would be too interested in a TVO interview, and nobody in the Ontario community would be overly interested in a Robert Picardo interview. Glad there’s an overlap!

Could it be High Park in Toronto? I was just there yesterday and saw a Great Egret much like this one (also a Green Heron and a couple of beavers).

Also note that if it’s just for personal use, you don’t have to have a domain for HTTPS. You can self sign, or create your own certificate authority, you just need to clients to trust it. But domains can be cheap or even free, so it’s better to get one so you don’t have to specially configure your devices.

These two had the misfortune of being in the grey zone between background and supporting characters. It’s fine for a show not to focus on the bridge crew (who’s at the helm on the Cerritos?) but Detmer and Owosekun got a raw deal because sometimes it seemed like they were gonna have some character development. Like in season 3 that Detmer had this bizarre beef with Stamets out of nowhere, and that was probably the only episode where she got more than a couple of lines.

I’m not surprised that the actresses chose their other projects (they were probably at the bottom of the totem poll of the show in terms of pay).

I probably wouldn’t have noticed they were missing, but in episode 3 Michael introduced Rayner to the crew and said “You’ll meet Owosekun, Detmer and the rest of the crew in a little bit”, and then later Tilly said “I’ll send Commander Owosekun in”, off screen of course. Lame.

Discovery got even worse after season 2.

On behalf of UofT, what an honour /s

It caught me by surprise. When they filmed the short trek some years ago there was a university-wide email about filming going on, but this time nothing.

Both DSC and SNW are filmed in Toronto, and we’ve seen landmarks from the city before (e.g. Aga Khan Museum, Ontario Place); and of course “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” took place entirely in the city in the 2020s and featured it heavily.

Someone once told me their grandparents in Brazil were part of a community where Latin was spoken as the primary language, but I can’t find any information about it online in English.

Egyptian hieroglyphs used to be painted, what we see now is usually (but not always) completely faded.

It’s interesting, but I don’t think viewing order has to be chronological. If someone is adamant about watching everything, I’d recommend they go by production order.

Not sure it satisfies your requirements but I’m quite happy with Baïkal.

Borg is great.

Maybe fifth time’s a charm…

I’ve been working with CUDA for 10 years and I don’t feel it’s that bad…

Abrechnung is really good and actively developed and improving. The UI is already pretty satisfactory, and there’s also an API which is needed if for example you want to bulk-import a spreadsheet, for now you have to code it a bit.

Came here to say just that. The WebDAV synchronization target is great.

I’m very happy with self-hosted Vaultwarden.
