Michael Ironside in his younger days. I would have loved to see him as a Trek captain in the style of his Starship Troopers character, ie a grizzled, take-no-prisoners leader, but would do anything for his people. Sort of a Lorca kind of captain, but Michael Ironside.

I think there might be some sarcasm going on there given the tone of the post, and the fact the upshot of it was to propose a vote on whethe the rules should be changed post-reopening to only permit pictures of "John Oliver looking sexy".

Good point, well made.

 

So some people out there have clearly been successful in persuading their instance to connect to Kbin, as if I browse "All" there are some kbin.social hosted communities (or "magazines", as they call them). But I've had pretty limited success myself, at least from Jerboa.

Can anyone suggest a workflow whereby I can find and subscribe to Kbin magazines that are not already showing in "all"?

I actually have one of those (a JML thing I got for Christmas as a stocking filler, but I imagine the one in Aldi is made at the same Taiwanese plant). I might have a crack at doing one on a shirt I dont care that much about and see how it turns out. No harm, no foul I suppose.

Aren't British Problems first world problems by definition? Considering the sort of thing we post on here, or on the equivalent forum on The Site That Shall Not Be Named. I can't imagine, for example, many Syrians being bothered by the fact that their local Greggs has run out of vegan sausage rolls.

The last time we tried to get the internet to seriously decide on something we got Boaty McBoatface.

And lo, the Internet looked down upon it's handiwork, and verily, t'was awesome.

All posts in these (business) subs can be advertisements, perfect.

And nobody will ever go there. And, two years down the track, u/spaz will hoik up the pricing or cut them off entirely because they're making money off of a non-profitable Reddit. "We want to work with the business subs but they're not interested in talking to us and have all thrown their toys out of the pram and shut down".

 

As title.

I did piss in the ice. Naturally.

But the phased cloak had problems, and is is seemingly a dead end for the ability to fire while cloaked.

Why? Wouldn't a photon torpedo immediately pass beyond the phased cloaking field and then immediately return to normal phase? Assume a phaser beam would the the same.

Unless we're saying there's no "field" as such, but the entire mass of the ship is altered and thus any projectile would still stay out of phase beyond the ship. If so, couldn't a torpedo have an integrated "rephase" module added? Problem solved.

 

No, I don't know what this was about either.

Well done you. Take my updoot (do we call them updoots on here?).

We need to know: is the belly a trap?

It's also quite pertinent given the prevalence of feddit.(country code) instances of Lemmy, eg feddit.uk, feddit.de etc.

 

Uno always chooses the pot slightly too small for her ample bulk.

Just one human finger to turn the "awww" into "OWWWW!"
