Ah, yes. The film where Jeri Ryan, Terry Farrell, and Kate Mulgrew are accidentally forced to abduct Rick Berman and keep him in their house for a few months while they wildly improve Star Trek. A classic. 😁
If only.

I believe in the moment, it was actually a hologram.
Still, we desperately need a statue of the Chief.
You’ve got quite a bit - it’s in TNG S4, so you’ve still got all of TAS (if you choose. If you’re thinking about skipping, at least watch Yesteryear), the first few movies, and the first three seasons and six episodes of TNG to go before you hit this glorious staple who will last through DS9.
Also, heir to the holy rings of Betazed.
They’re basically the same character.

“You! The one who is moving now!”
Borg Backup, whenever I feel like it - usually monthly.
The headline does not do the story justice - makes it sound like the judge didn’t respect Data’s hypothetical rights, when she in fact acknowledged them.
I overall agree with the ruling.
On an unrelated note:
Why do you have Teddy Ruxpin as your desktop background, and more importantly, why do I feel such reverence for it as a very non-stereotypical background for a Linux user?
For some reason, I have the impulse to put this in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkinoUGmKZ4
(Phish wanted Frakes to do a horn part for one of their tracks, but his skills were not up to the task. To honor the attempt, they made this track out of a bunch of the failed takes.)
I honestly forgot about that. It’s been a while since I’ve watched Orville, but remembering that, I agree.
I have respect for how the Orville turned both Isaac and Gordon around from the most annoying characters on the show to some of the best.
I use Debian with XFCE, but while I love XFCE, it might not be everyone’s thing. If you do give it a try, make sure to use Whisker Menu instead of the default app menu, and also set keyboard mappings to your liking.
P.S: Ubuntu’s pushing for Snaps, not Flatpaks. Flatpaks are actually pretty good - makes it really easy to install a newer software version when the one in Debian repos doesn’t suffice.
Also, it’s not only Ubuntu pushing for Wayland - most distros or DEs either have it working or are working towards it (there are some exceptions). XFCE is still on xorg, but working on Wayland. The problem is xorg is on life support and not getting a lot of new features.
Currently running a campaign on 1st edition. May look into this.
I’lll taaaeek yoooo hooooooooeeeem, AGAAAAAAIN KATHLEEN!
Being on the spectrum, I have to say, I weirdly relate to Boimler in Lower Decks, especially early seasons. It’s something about his awkwardness combined with his dealing with his ambition that spoke to me when I got rejected from my dream school a year or so back.
It’s almost like Data is the person you dream of being in some ways and Boimler is the person you actually are in a few aspects.
