  • I’m one of those older Trekkies who will complain about the aesthetic choices of the DSC sets.

    My view is that there is a certain style with sci-fi shows of this nature that are part of their identity.

    Large swings in design choices are very distracting to the point of being off putting to me unless there is good reason for it.

    One thing I absolutely applaud Disney for is how they’ve managed to modernize but still keep the 70s aesthetics in their Star Wars shows. And I wish Trek had followed the same path.

    It’s things like this that prevent me from using Linux more.

    I force myself to use it for projects where it’s an option because I feel I need to learn it better but I kind of dread it every time.

    Inevitably I’m stuck frustrated reading conflicting guides from years ago and wondering just how badly I’m going to fuck things up this time.

    Sometimes it all feels so esoteric.





  • I’ll tell you, I have my setup to the point where I go to one website, subscribe to a show, and episodes of that show appear to watch on my TV same day they are released.

    I also set myself up to get email alerts telling me what new episodes I have to watch when they are done being downloaded.

    … Setting all that up took me awhile and will take tech skills. But now that it’s set up, it’s zero touch aside from adding new shows.

    Plus, I never have to worry about trying to find where to stream at it and even if my Internet goes out I can still watch my shows
