themoken@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•As an older torrent gen, I tried Debrid for the first time.English7·18 days agoI use private trackers exclusively for content I want to “own” or want in the highest possible quality. Stremio/RD is great though for my wife to be able to search new media and potentially stream in okay quality without fucking with sonarr. Or popular TV you’re maybe not sold on but would try an episode. Or for old SD content, like tossing on a 90s show for a few episodes. To be honest, I live in a world of ad block and Stremio is sometimes the only way I even know something is out…
Anyway, they complement each other well.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Have you guys heard this about ParamountEnglish31·1 month agoExactly. DEI as a term is just a lightning rod for idiots at the moment so maybe you just publicly stop calling it that and keep everything else the same.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Have you guys heard this about ParamountEnglish5·1 month agoI dunno how to interpret this honestly. On its face this reflects poorly on Paramount, but we live in an oligarchy and I don’t really blame them for trying to avoid pissing off the volatile baby that runs this country when DEI can still be achieved without using that terminology directly.
Is there evidence that this division of their corporation was actually doing anything different than before the term DEI even existed? Or that Paramount has current issues with diversity?

Once you get into an initial tracker and establish yourself, it becomes easier to find / get into new ones via forum invites. It’s a long road but barring a time machine it’s the easiest way.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•The best streaming service :)English4·2 months agoI dunno, maybe I just had crappy indexers but usenet was always more miss than hit for me. Maybe it’s superior to public torrents but private trackers are the gold standard.

themoken@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•"Star Trek is dying." How would you sell it to a younger audience?English134·2 months agoSorry, I don’t care what Kurtzman says about this (or an actor that is obliged to defend a project he was in) when it’s justifying putting out schlock for mind share. If that’s the best we can do, let it die - it doesn’t make anything that exists any worse.
Trek needs a good show that stands alone and isn’t aimed at us but a fresh audience. That means no cameos, limited references, not animated (that is a stigma as much as I love LD), and actually taking the time to get people invested.
Basically, they needed Discovery to not be garbage. I know non-Trekkies that were actually excited for a new sci-fi romp and got turned off almost immediately by the nonsense writing. Not the cast, or stupid out of universe concerns about being “woke” or some shit, just plain out “this makes no sense and isn’t fun to watch” and it was hard to disagree.
Everything since then has lived in Discovery’s shadow in terms of new audience and has mostly dealt with that by being aimed at fans of 90s Trek and nobody else. Prodigy may be an exception here, but that suffers from being oriented at kids.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Risa@startrek.website•Who says S31 gets to have all the fun?English21·3 months agoThese are such great episodes. The Enterprise one specifically is amazing. We so often see our valiant crew save Earth, but they almost never sacrifice their morals to do so.
For Archer, with practically all of humanity in the balance, how could he not fuck those guys over?
themoken@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Film Discussion | Star Trek: Section 31English8·3 months agoWell said. Especially agree on point one. I’m not a fan of the Discovery era characterization of Section 31, but ultimately there was no reason they had to be related to this movie at all. Georgiou had plenty of personal reasons to deal with this and to have a collection of ne’er-do-wells on hand without any involvement from Starfleet / S31.

I can’t see how it would do that without registering you with their own service as a middle man. Seems like that kinda defeats the purpose.

Dynamic DNS service / static IP and router port forwarding just like any other self hosted thing. It requires a user/pass to login as usual. VPN is nice but not required.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•How Star Trek: Lower Decks Managed To Get Enterprise’s Jolene Blalock To Appear, And Why She’s Only Credited By Her First NameEnglish45·4 months agoBakula just hit the Archer casting too perfectly. The man just exudes boy scout, it’s what made Quantum Leap work too.
Hear hear. This has Ankh Morpork written all over it.

themoken@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla releases API pricing, dev says would cost $60 million per year to run his 3rd-party appEnglish1611·5 months agoI mean, fuck Elon and Tesla but if you’re spending money on a car you’re giving it to a bastard one way or another. The CEOs of Ford, BMW, et. al. might not be making asses of themselves on the global stage, but I’m sure they’re still horrible. Even used cars run on gas 99% of the time.
Because at some point after the first few million you turn into a dragon that must hoard wealth and the people that generate that wealth become a cost to minimize.

I was able to recover the data and get back up in about 24 hours but there was literally no recourse other than begging some random mod’s reddit account.
Always sad to see a tracker go down, but this place was a shit show.
themoken@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Lower Decks Season 5 Official Trailer!English10·7 months agoThis. So much this. I hate what Discovery did with S31. The Federation isn’t the Federation with an official black ops gestapo running around.
Also, I love Michelle Yeoh but I am way more interested in the Capt. Georgiou we missed out on than the genocidal maniac Empress we got.
This sounds like a great beta canon novel plot.
