Star wars, star trek, loads of other shows have suffered the same problem here.

I don’t mind female leads or LGBT, or Latin / Asian / African or whatever typenof actors, none of it is a problem, ehy should it be?

I mind when the writing is cringe worthy bad, but I’m supposed to like the show because of reasons like

“the main actor is black, … AND A WOMAN, gasp!”

or

“But 30 percent of the characters are gay, it MUST be good now, RIGHT?”

or

“That widely know character with a rich and very well defined backstory is now a stone cold murderer AND lesbian, this show rocks!”

I’m tired of existing shoes being ruined this way. You want to make a show where all characters are black transgender women? Go ahead, make a NEW show, leave existing stories alone. If the writing is good, I’ll watch it, I don’t need a brave gay black Winnie Pooh.

But that won’t happen, because they’ll take an existing show, shoehorn in a whole bunch of check boxes, black check, gay check, ooohhh bisexual check! And that’s it. Writing? Oh yeah, sure, we’ll have someone throw up over paper and we’ll use that because we have all the checkboxes, we gon be great!

And another show lies ruined.

I’m sure there is still hardware out there with issues, just like there is hardware that has issues with Windows. What’s your point?

Children saved: 0

Yeah, no. If you are unable to watch objectively goot television shows because they’re from a different time, then don’t watch tv.at all…

That’s why I said TNG and DS9 after that…

You hate your friends?

Nah, maybe snw isn’t as bad as the rest of the nu trek drek, everyone keeps saying so, but the same was said ad-nausea about discovery, prodigy, lower decks, Picard, and those god awful pew pew nu movies…

Maybe snw isn’t so bad but seriously, start at TOS, or remastered TNG if you want something that looks a bit more current. TNG and DS9 are top tier star trek

Maybe add a comma after “protected speech”, I understood it as you saying that these are people abusing free speech.

I fully agree with you

Why Microsoft office? Who not just “office”? Libre Office is the same

HDR is available in KDE now, and bluetooth works since like a decade? Sorry, you don’t exist.

I don’t think anyone cares about a torpedo being fired by a woman

What people do care about is continuity, at least trying to keep characters consistent, good stories, etc.

Hence why most of the nu-trek shows and movies are such utter crap, as it’s CGI over story while completely ignoring 50 years of history.

Picard show, for example… Beverly crusher who once disobeyed a direct.order to save a victim after a bombing attack, who made a point about being peaceful is now a ninja assassin. Seven of nine, who made a point about improving, being better, now is a mad mass murderer who wants revenge for everything. Picard, who once was thoughtful, highly intelligent and respected, is now a bumbling old man.

Star trek which once was about being better is now about fuck fuck fuckerdy fuck fuck fuck because that’s star trek now, man, get with the program, it’s cool man!

I can go on for hours about Picard, let’s not. Discovery is somehow even worse. Those movies where they just did older movies again but now with new! And! Improved! CGI! CGI CGI CGI! Lense flaaaaaaaare!

With TNG I so could imagine living there on one of those star ships. Nu trek crap ships are just … I don’t even know where to begin

Add a broody darkness over that with regular over the top violence, and yeah, we really have star trek!

Long live the Orville, the new star trek

I don’t want to be that guy, but that PHP function call at the end that you said never really gets fixed… I haven’t used that in 20 years of PHP, and I’m pretty sure that hasn’t existed since like 10-15 years ago. People seem to love to hate php because 20 years ago it did something not quite right.

The point is hoping there are enough dumb people out there willing to pay for software that is freely available after you lie some to their face.

See also anything that Microsoft produces, they are a billion dollar company with that shit somehow.

Ford really does love to fuck Canada over, doesn’t he?

Serious question: can police in Canada just barge into a house without a warrant?

Also, what would possibly be a problem with a kid playing outside?

Cna we please severely limit what investment companies can do?

Investment companies should not be able to buy hospitals, farms, houses, schools, sports teams, infrastructure, parks, forests, transit and transportation companies, pensions, saving funds, none of it.

A structure where an investment company can help a person to buy a farm and build something up while paying off that investment company within a reasonable time for a reasonable cost sounds fine, but we already have banks and it’s hard not to make those squeeze us.

So fuck off with investment companies, let them burn to the ground. They should be prohibited altogether

Thanks for adding that “in the US” bit because not all countries have shit for brain police

If you actually watched the episodes you’d know that a) he didn’t do fucked up shit, he made a mistake and b) he actually cared about justice and c) he not only knew about the mistake, it was eating him up inside.

… I’m not sure if you’re trolling, though I’m pretty sure you are.

I’m not going to repeat myself

I’ve watched every TOS TNG ds9 voy and ent episode more times than I can count, I even watched shades of gray twice. I have thousands upon thousands of dollars in merch, models, books, thousands of trading cards. Yeah, I’m a fan who draws the line at wearing a uniform but that’s about it.

I watched half a season of discovery and decided I tortured myself enough. I regret pushing myself through watching Picard all three seasons, that is a lot of hours I won’t be getting back and it pretty much ruined TNG for me. I started watching prodigy and decided I had enough of the crap, and I’m not wasting my time anymore in getting disappointed and having so much great history being shat on.

If prodigy made a funny injoke, then yay. After seeing the producers of discovery proudly proclaiming that they aren’t trek fans, don’t know it but love the platform to push their political views I feel like I’m just about done with star trek. I haven’t even watched the classic episode anymore, that’s how much of a turn off the entire experience had been.

I started watching the Orville and immediately fell in love with a show that is startrek in all but name. Go watch that, it showsbthe love.

And you literally need to read, because it’s literally not about anything new.
