Well, 1 and 2 both dealt with deep themes of grief and generational trauma … I appreciated that they tried to write a story with a deep meaning to it, even if it didn’t 100% work it was better than a lot of the recent things I’ve watched
The thing I liked with 1 and 2 was that they both tried to tackle big ideas of past trauma, even if it didn’t come out well the big thinking was in there while a lot of recent things I’ve watched has felt skin deep at best
Well, I’m glad it wasn’t just me, lol … I figured some people must have enjoyed it otherwise they’d have left it at one season!
If this thread is anything to go by, me and my other half were the only people on the planet that actually enjoyed Picard S1 and 2, and didn’t like S3 as much.
In that spirit, if a film is made I look forward to enjoying it even if I’m the only one.
Would you like 1 maglev train for 10km, or 10 extra trains to make better use of existing infrastructure?
That’s what we call an attention getter!
Yeah, my local Caprabo (a modestly priced supermarket) used to have a whole aisle dedicated to olives and olive related stuff … now the locals are getting priced out of it and the aisle is just a little section
Very much on-brand that while the federation have lots of fancy comfy chairs, Quark just went to Ikea
That too :-/
Some people have limited bandwidth for downloads, and a simple program can run to more space than a basic distro.
That would be logical. On Liftoff I cannot see most domains, or long usernames.
I believe they were referring to sh.itjust.works, an instance with an unfortunate quantity of low quality memes.
Can’t go wrong with Linux Mint. It works pretty much like Windows so there’s little relearning needed.
Well, last time I installed it it was easier than Windows. I put it on my Dad’s computer and it just works with his printer etc.
A suitable metaphor for this would be saying that you didn’t enjoy having to start a Model T Ford with a hand crank so you’ve refused to drive a car ever since. Reminds my of my Grandfather.
That is a most excellent pun. Thank you.
Don’t be sorry for your reply being long, it was clearly well thought out and considered. I agree on all the points you’ve made … perhaps the majority of people here didn’t like Picard 1 & 2 because it wasn’t repeating the type of story telling that Star Trek has typically given, but was a whole new thing. People, generally, don’t like change and I think in the current world there’s comfort to be had in the “monster of the week” style 90s shows.
