Hahaha TAS had some absolutely unhinged episodes, I’m glad I watched it just to see the callbacks in LD. Love that they brought back the three-part alien to do that crew evaluation in the holodecks. Also not just Satan, but needlessly sexy space-wizard Satan.
This is not the kind of corn smut I cum here for!
But is it sausage war or sausage peace?
I knew vaguely that Early Grey had something called bergamot in it, but I was fully unprepared for it to be citrusy! Almost “bright” tasting.
Hah, was that the deus ex machina they ended up going with? I’ll be honest I’ve tried to watch Shore Leave at least 3 times and I don’t think I’ve ever made it to the end. It’s just so silly. Allison Pregler did a pretty funny breakdown of the episode.
“Back in my day we didn’t need any fancy ‘holodecks’ to trip balls!”
Is that the one where Worf complains about a mud bath being too similar to bathing lol
There can be no sausage so long as laws are absolute.

Haha. The precious girl I ended up with bamboozled me a bit. I picked her up at the shelter and she clinged to me and started purring, then when I got her home I found out she can’t stand being held. She’s a smart one though, I love her.
I wonder what causes that. The only time I’ve had customization reset is if I wiped the metadata during a server migration on accident, or decided to clear it intentionally.
The writer claims that plex drives people towards recommendations even after disabling the recommended tab, that’s the part I’m trying to figure out.
This just reinforces my head canon that other species are terrified of humans for being so reckless with technology.
From their blog post about it:
An unauthorized third party accessed a limited subset of customer data from one of our databases. While we quickly contained the incident, information that was accessed included emails, usernames, securely hashed passwords and authentication data. Any account passwords that may have been accessed were securely hashed, in accordance with best practices, meaning they cannot be read by a third party.
The passwords were hashed and, I’m inferring from their language, salted per-user as well. Assuming a reasonable length password (complexity doesn’t matter much here, what we want is entropy) it would take a conventional (i.e. not quantum) computer tens to hundreds of millions of years to crack one user’s password.
They’ve taken other measures as well. Nobody knows the details besides them, but they blocked an entire cloud provider called Hetzner because too many people were using it for pirate Plex servers. They absolutely have to maintain the image of being legitimate like you said.
Sure, you can disable a lot of features from the home page, but even the remaining bits push you toward Plex’s ecosystem with things like recommendations. And I’ve even seen people complaining about needing to re-disable promotional content after updates. It’s simply a shady business.
Edit: It’s just occurred to me that he might literally be referring to the Recommended tab on your home page - which you only have to interact with by choice.
If anyone would care to tell me where I’m being pushed towards Plex’s ecosystem I’d love to understand what the flying fuck he’s talkin about. The only thing I could find that could generously be called part of the Plex “ecosystem” are the social features. Does it give more “ads” if you have a free account or something? Also I’ve had a server for 15 years and I’ve never had to re-do my customization from an update.
seriously. it sucks that plex had to increase their price to $250 but they resisted that increase for like 10 years. nobody is forcing anyone to rent plex lol. its still worth it during sales.
There was an episode of TNG where the crew was being eaten alive by “inter-phasic” aliens and Dr. Crusher could only see them by using her I P Scanner (tee hee). So my question is: how does Starfleet know they wont phase into a layer of spacetime inhabited by, say, giant spaceship eating worms?
I kinda wish I had been chosen by a stray, instead I went to a shelter and let one of the cats there choose me so I guess it’s close enough.
Might not be able to buy groceries but at least we have $3.00/gallon, or $0.80/liter, fuel for our planet destroying pickup trucks!
