Reddit seems all doom and gloom on the topic but what about Lemmy? And the future of Star Trek?
  • The real problem, as I see it, is that P+ has gone out of their way not only to gather all that is Trek under their umbrella, but they’ve gone out of their way to ensure their walled garden is the only place it’s found.

    Look to file sharing sites and USENET, where the DMCA has been wielded with gay abandon to decimate access to pirated content. It’s impossible to find full episodes on USENET any more and torrent sites likewise.

    What brought ST back in the first place, was syndication. It was cheap enough, every podunk broadcast station could afford to air it, thus creating legions of new fans. This is the exact opposite of what’s happening today.

    Sadly, if P+ loses enough to start cancelling production of new content, they’d still be sitting on all the copyrighted IP and something tells me they’d try to squeeze every farthing possible out it via licensing before letting another production company touch it.

    At this point, I’m buying DVD box sets, ripping them to my raided NAS, reselling them and saying “Yuck fu!” to the controlling millionaires at Paramount.

  • How an FEC deadlock is deterring a push to regulate AI in campaigns
  • TL;DR?

    No spoilers here:

    “The FEC is facing a second request — backed by Democrats in the House and Senate — to clarify that its law on fraudulent misrepresentation applies to use of AI.”

    Guess who’s being a stick in the mud over this…

  • Anyone else underwhelmed by the Omni?
  • And therein lies my main beef with mine; the adjustable carb doesn’t work for shit, compared to manual, digit delivered airflow of my others (yeah, have five, almost bought a 2023 last night).

    Guess it’s time for disassembly and inspection, which is disappointing, since the others “just worked” outta the box.

  • Anyone else underwhelmed by the Omni?

    Seriously, I have an ancient HydroVong, 3Ms from different years and finally splurged on the Omni. I fully expected cosmic levels of performance from that puppy…& so far it feels like the weakest link. Hydro and 2019M hit stronger. Anyway, just had to ask. Cheers and happy

    Where would I submit a feature request?

    Looking for a link or email, since it occurred to me that being able to filter for POSTS, in communities and by users, could alleviate a lot of tapping on mobile to find active members of both.
