) or the new shows (2017-today)? Be honest! It won't change anything about the way I'm doing things here! 
Why the reliably wonderful @pluralistic thinks that although #Bluesky improves in many important ways over legacy social media, he won't be joining the service.
TLDR: It's Bluesky's "*very bad*" #ToS.

@vivianers what extension do you use for disabling auto-dubbing & title translations?
I found one for "un-short-ening" that turns #YouTubeShorts into regular URLs with player controls...
- And yes, I also hate the unrelated suggestions because they only contain #RageBait and are full with more #ToS violations than the #scammers that #advertise on YouTube.

@oliverboehme@troet.cafe Und ja, bis auf ein random #Film der mittels #YouTube - #Werbung weiter Geld machen will, sind da nur #Soundtracks und #Rechtsextremer #Hass und #Hetze in den Vorschlägen!
- Ich stelle mir die Frage ob das seitens #Google / #YouTube / #Alphabet oder genauer gesagt der #US-Regierung gewollte #Einflussnahme (siehe #Trump-Regime & #CloudAct) ist.
Weil bei jener #christofaschistisch|en #Regierung welche die eigenen #Staatsbürger *"#verschwindenlässt"* ist dies nicht abwegig - im Gegenteil!

I always loved the look of the Trek movie-era Miranda Class ships like the one Khan took over.
Then, maybe a decade back, I came across this rendering someone did of the same hull configuration, but using TOS style components, and I loved it even more.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy teaser has some nice call outs in it.
First: Benjamin Sisko!
Then: Admiral Harry Kim. Our boy did get promoted after all!
Then: It looks like Tawny Newsome changed careers late in life from actor to Starfleet officer as she attained the rank of Admiral.
And finally, these that I spotted that are familiar, there are lots that I missed:
Beckett Mariner (can’t see rank)
Someone with last name Roddenberry (cut off in the left column)
Captain Demora Sulu
Commander Christine Chapel
Lieutenant Tasha Yar
Ambassador Spock
Lieutenant, Junior Grade Wesley Crusher
Lieutenant Nog
Admiral Leonard H. McCoy
Captain Montgomery Scott
Lieutenant Tom Paris
Captain William T. Riker
Lieutenant Commander Hoshi Sato
Commander Deanna Tori
Lieutenant Commander Data
Lieutenant Julian Bashir
Admiral Katrina Cornwall
Captain Seven of Nine

@jbz I hope @EUCommission and others take note of this #AntiCompetitive action and will act accordingly unless #Microsoft can actually cite a valid reason.
- After all, it is neither illegal nor bannable per law to use "competitors' services and products" and even worst-case this qualifies as "cleanroom engineering" to improve #compatibility, which is desireable for both @libreoffice / #LibreOffice and #MicrosoftOffice...
#Microsoft pulling such an #AssholeMove is inexcuseable *unless they actually evidence a serious #ToS violation they could not have resolved otherwise and that banning said user was the only possible recourse to secure their own systems and/or customers' data from a malicious actor.

Gus Posey I hope that everyone who uses the #AllStarTrek hashtag is happy, safe, and sufficiently warm for continued survival in your current environment. I'm missing a lot of episodes these days but continue to hope that each one of you is inspired by the thoughtful future these programs represent.
#paramount #cbs killed #startrek fandom and now they are killing off STAR TREK once and for all!
Fans can only create some more or less boring render flicks showing their favourite ships and stuff like that. The last honest and huge fan-fiction was "Star Trek Continues" with 10 #tos episodes that are truly epic.
Someone should buy the #franchise from Paramount ...

But seriously, #TOS depicts a chapel that has various religious symbols including something resembling a Christian cross.
Several characters in #TNG and #DS9 invoke Christian values or directly quote the Bible. https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Christianity
This isn't the first time organized human religion has appeared in #StarTrek.
Memory AlphaChristianityChristianity was a Human religion based upon the teachings of Jesus Christ (Jesus of Nazareth), born from the Virgin Mary. The prophets of the Old Testament and New Testament of the Bible like Methuselah, Solomon, Lazarus, and Saint Paul and many saints like Saint Andrew, Saint Émilion, and Saint Moritz also inspired the teaching of the Christian religion. The largest Christian church was the Catholic Church. In the 23rd century, the abuela of Hugh Culber filled her home with religious icons...
As an American citizen, I often feel very much like the crew of the Enterprise when Commodore Matt Decker takes over command from Spock while Kirk is stuck on the wreckage of the Constellation, forcing the crew to embark on an illogical suicidal mission of vengeance and revenge against the Doomsday Machine.
And... don't call him Shirley

@riley @foone they already do with unacceptable "#ToS" and laws that criminalize said #API0...
- And I'm millimeters away from snapping!
Infosec.SpaceKevin Karhan :verified: (@kkarhan@infosec.space)One thing that really pisses me off personally is the #regression in terms of #Messenger #Apps.
My personal distaste and dislike for #proprietary, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider #services like #Signal [¹](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114234551915193036) [²](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114935952643402592), #Telegram, #Discord [³](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114865723904157014), #WhatsApp [⁴](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114873895410403238), #Slack, #MicrosoftTeams, etc. aside:
- *WHY* is there no #CrossProvider #Messenger to handle that shite?
- *WHY* does everyone of these shitty providers think people want to download their #bloated #WebApp that takes up triple digit Megabytes if not entire Gigabytes and will gobble up all the #RAM and #CPU each of them can??
This problem ain't new and *already got [solved for corporate social media](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114862619013462466) ages ago!* (Not to mention actually good messengers!)
- And no, [bridges](https://toots.ch/@dalai/114862754556459439) *[don't](https://swecyb.com/@troed/114862774972645542) count*!
- I mean `API 0` - [style](https://digipres.club/@foone/112685423773959519) access because obviously [none of the platforms](https://digipres.club/@foone/112685414638522984) will *allow, endorse or support such an endeavour* and [*actively fight the developers and users*](https://digipres.club/@foone/112685441496803574) !
So yeah, consider this a call for a @gajim@fosstodon.org / #Gajim or @pidgin@fosstodon.org / #Pidgin *for garbage platforms!*
- Cuz back in the day we had *way worse messengers* yet people actually made #AIM, #ICQ, #MSN, #QQ, #IRC & #XMPP work just fine from one single *"phat" client*!
- Can we please get that back? Cuz #WastefulComputing pisses me off!

After a time, you may find that having . . . is not the same as wanting.
