I included this in the Discussion Thread 1.0, but I agree - Wesley brought a unique charisma to Kirk that worked really well without being Shatnerian.

Apologies - my own thoughts on the episode also have been lost to time.

We've identified the problem, and it shouldn't happen again!

What could go wrong?

I’ve seen that much of Crave’s Star Trek catalogue is coming off in July.

Where have you seen that? There's nothing on the list compiled by Mobile Syrup.

If true, that would be a significant development, signaling the end of a relationship between Paramount and Bell that's lasted far longer than I expected.

Not for nothing (but possibly not for much, either), Crave still has "Westworld" despite Warner pulling it from Max.

DS9 said that genetic modification was still allowed for the treatment of serious illnesses. So it doesn’t make sense for all permanent genetic modification to be banned.

The franchise is fairly consistent about genetic enhancements (i.e., augmentation) are illegal, while medical procedures are not. The Darwin station is the biggest outlier.

They kept the tradition alive by having a starship captain handle the prosecution, though.

They didn’t say anything about it in “Masterpiece Society” either.

That colony wasn’t a member of the Federation, though.> Also, when Torres was pregnant in Voyager, she wanted the Doctor to modify her baby to remove Klingon traits and no one said it was illegal.

One could argue that’s not an augmentation.

It may be forever smaller

I would honestly consider this a feature, not a bug.

That was the idea. Is it having a visible effect?

We are looking into it - we don't have a wiki up and running just yet, but we'll see about getting it up somewhere ASAP.

  1. It was one of the few that wasn’t taken.
  2. It made us laugh.

V. 0.18 disables CAPTCHA support, which we're not willing to do at this time, as there are a lot of bots on the platform. It's supposed to be re-instated in 0.18.1, so we're probably going to wait for that.

From what we understand, it should be possible to simply bypass the warning that Jerboa sends, and use the instance as normal - let us know if that's not the case.

Also, the instance can be installed as a PWA through Chrome on Android phones - I've found that to be a good experience overall.

@ValueSubtracted@startrek.website avatar

Ah shoot, I just confirmed this. We had tried it with Jerboa, but we were already logged in.

While we consider our options, I would suggest accessing the instance through your web browser. I don't think you'll have any issues doing it that way, and the mobile interface is pretty decent.

Even worse, he was just re-using Kirk’s old password!

Ok, so I'm trial following @startrek and I'm getting a torrent(<a bit of hyperbole) posts in my home page. How do you people that follow hundreds/thousands handle this? Just ignore most of what flows down the page?

I've tried to be careful curating the people I follow, and it was fairly manageable til today. Trying to avoid setting up a lemmy acct, but StarTrek is only gonna get more active, and there's more to life than StarTrek :^O How to manage?

Ah, but that very Technical Manual (ch. 12.5) clearly states that solid waste is transported through linear induction utlity conduits - no mention of dematerialization, except in the case of those materials that cannot be recycled by mechanical or chemical means!
