ValueSubtracted OP , 11 months ago to startrek in Paramount+ Brings Star Trek: Lower Decks to New York Comic Con on October 14

If it’s being presented by Paramount+ and not CBS Studios, as seems to be the case, I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Lower Decks is not struck work.

Also, what happens if you fill out the text, and put a URL at the top?

Your post will basically include the link, along with a text box for you to add whatever context or commentary you wish.

It’s from the second episode of Season 1 but Saru is wearing his uniform from Season 4 of Discovery.

I’m pretty sure it’s a nod to TAS and other cartoons of the era having inexplicable errors when it comes to character models and animation.

Ideally, other VFX houses across the industry will follow.

This one is very dumb (and I expect the others will be as well), but it worked a lot better for me than the first one.

ValueSubtracted , 11 months ago to quarks in Some formatting questions

This is the official Lemmy documentation for text.

I don’t think indented sub-items are possible in a list, but there may be some wizardry I’m unaware of.

Tables are possible, but can be confusing. You might find this helpful.

what is the “URL” field at the top of this post for?

That’s if you want to share a link to a news article or video or something, rather than create a discussion post. Your post will automatically provide a link to that URL, and will also try to generate an appropriate title that you can use if you want (generally by grabbing the title of the page you’re linking to).

How do I make “minor separations”, where you have multiple paragraphs, then a paragraph with more white-space between it, but not like a header or a line. It’s related enough that I want it connect, but separate enough that I want some separation

I’m not sure if it’s exactly what you have in mind, but I find a triple dash to be a good minor separator.

How can I make Paragraphs have indents? (I know they aren’t needed grammatically anymore, but in some cases, a paragraph just doesn’t seem “right” without an indent…

I don’t actually know if this is possible…

ValueSubtracted , 11 months ago to quarks in What is the best community for discussing Star Trek tech?

Good question - this one’s a little case-by-case.

If the focus of what you’re discussing is specifically Star Trek, the general c/StarTrek community would be fine. If you’re looking to get serious and in-depth with it, c/DaystromInstitute would also work.

If the primary focus is on the real world and the Trek connection is more tangential (examples: “cell phones were inspired by communicators” or “this new medical device is kind of like a tricorder”), it’s probably more appropriate for Quark’s. But there are some edge cases in there, and we’re unlikely to be fussy if something ends up in c/StarTrek instead.

ValueSubtracted , 11 months ago to quarks in Some general questions about this (startrek.website, not lemmy), (If this is the wrong community, sorry. That's one of my questions lol...)

You can find the moderators for each community in that community’s sidebar - just head to their profile and message them. This would be the process for both questions about community-specific rules, and appeals of moderator actions.

The downside to this solution is that the message is only guaranteed to be seen by the moderator you messaged, rather than the entire mod team, but we can and do communicate with each other as needed.

ValueSubtracted , 11 months ago to quarks in Some general questions about this (startrek.website, not lemmy), (If this is the wrong community, sorry. That's one of my questions lol...)

If I have questions about general usage/ support of this website (startrek.website), what’s the correct community?

This one right here - Quark’s.

If I am not sure of a rule for the website, where should I ask

Same as above, if it’s a general question about rules and not an appeal of a specific mod action.

If I am not sure of a rule for a specific community, where should I ask?

We’re still deciding on the best solution to contact an entire mod team, but for now, reaching out to a community moderator directly is probably the way to go.

Where should I ask to find a community on a specific topic?

Quark’s would be the place for this, as well.

Related to 1, where should I have put this post?

Right where you put it was the right call!

Also, what about questions about Lemmy?

Who?

ValueSubtracted , 11 months ago to startrek in Canon Connections: Lower Decks 4x01 - Twovix

Technically true up until about season five of VOY, at which point the only characters aboard the ship were Seven of Nine, the Doctor, and sometimes Captain Janeway.

This is Naomi Wildman erasure.

ValueSubtracted OP , 11 months ago to startrek in Star Trek: Infinite could be the grand strategy game Trekkies need

It’s actually been a pretty good year for non-mobile Star Trek games, between this, Resurgence, and the Prodigy game, all while STO lumbers on.

ValueSubtracted OP , 11 months ago to startrek in Star Trek: Infinite Launches October 12, Game Trailer and Preorder Details Announced

It’s a standalone game built with the same engine.
