Wow, bad week for Trekkies. I didn’t realize he was sick.

“What we leave behind is not as important as how we’ve lived.”

No no no it’s simple see:

Black lady serving on the bridge crew = “social commentary”

Black lady leading the bridge crew = “preachy heavy handed delivery trying too hard to be woke”

It’s so crazy how the difference between “preached” and “commented” is based on your specific opinion of where social progress should have stopped 🤔

A new account that immediately starts posting fake incendiary content?

The only thing I’m surprised by is that reddit didn’t boost that to the front page for engagement.

My mama begged me to get into cartooning but I thought corporate law was the path to financial independence how could I be so foolish

Ah a clever and biting retort to be sure! A short and sweet dagger to the heart of the argument. Your college debate team is clearly very lucky to have someone like you among their ranks! However, I warn you, the fediverse, my friend, is the biggest of the big leagues, and such concise witticisms and stinging flashes of showmanship will not suffice to pull your seemingly iron clad observation across the finish line! Tokenism is not representation.

I’ve been subscribed to the physical copy for years and consider it a bargain. Even when a story is from a new writer and a little rough around the edges, it is always obvious why it got selected. Highly recommended if you love sci-fi short stories that make you go “hmm”

I always thought it was interesting how the one thing MAGA hasn’t been frothing at the mouth to reverse is gay marriage, it’s really crazy how fast the opinion changed once it became legal nationwide and the sky didn’t fall.

Ohh yes both good suggestions thanks

Yeah that’s a very good point, I have long hated how Reddit has been slowly erasing each subreddits individual identity/community and just turning the app into another algorithmic content feed.

Tap to pay will not work

Turn on “annoyances cookie banners” in UBO

Right? There’s a line in Generations where Kirk tells him “you were younger” than a new ensign.

I was just reading that, I think thats the one!

I thought about that, it’s probably Chekov’s finest appearance but I just watched it recently!

Posting highly formatted but substanceless empty fluff is not a “writing style”, it’s spam. A human is certainly capable of doing that if they set their mind to it, but occams razor strongly points to automation.

I’m starting to understand why you often find yourself accused of being a bot… 🙃

Umbrage is our word we need to take it back

One cannot win an argument that does not exist

An LLM cannot “argue” full stop. If you find yourself in a debate with the text outputted by an LLM bot you have accomplished nothing besides wasting your own time (which is the entire point).
