I need to get a bottle of the Star Trek Wines Kanar. Not because I care about the wine, but so I can put my own liquor in it. I think Amaro Sfumato Rabarbaro fits the bill perfectly. Dark brown and viscous, with a floral nose, like is mentioned on Memory Beta, and bitter and smoky, making it an acquired taste. A taste I have very much acquired

Surprising to see a Republican actually admit it though. He must be trying to pull a Mitt Romney, and hoping to get some moderate votes, hoping they’ve forgotten everything he’s done to damage the country
Star Trek was very good at being made cheaply. That’s originally why they had transporters. You don’t need to film how they get from one location to another. And they did things like Shuttlepod One in Enterprise, where the entire episode literally takes place in one room.
Both TOS and TNG did both come very close to total cancellation though. I believe it was Lucille Ball that saved TOS
Only if you don’t like Star Trek. Strange New Worlds is fantastic, Lower Decks is legitimately in my top three series in the franchise at this point, and Discovery found it’s feet in Season three, and continued to improve from there, just like TNG did. You’re missing out
That’s the only one I haven’t actually watched yet. The first two seasons were so bad. I’ve heard season 3 is good, but mostly nostalgia, which isn’t a big draw for me, since I was born a decade after TNG ended lol
Yeah, I really didn’t think I’d like Lower Decks either. When Paramount released Discovery, which didn’t feel like Star Trek at all, and then an animated comedy Star Trek, I felt they had absolutely no right to make fun of Star Trek. Fortunately, the creator and the writers actually do love the show, and it’s smart and quick, and really gets what Star Trek stands for. And now, because of the Strange New Worlds crossover (which was a masterpiece), Mariner’s actress will be writing for Star Fleet Academy! So I’m excited for that as well
For me it’s foot fetish stuff. Every damned thing else is on the table but before I could make the lethal mistake of talking about it, she expressed her giga-ick about the issue. To this day I thank God I saw the metaphorical fly hit that electric fence before I walked into it.
I have a pregnancy fetish, but hate kids. Neither myself nor my fiance want them, so I’m just not going to mention it. She also has a medical condition that would make pregnancy difficult and dangerous
A patent application from the company spotted by Lowpass describes a system for displaying ads over any device connected over HDMI, a list that could include cable boxes, game consoles, DVD or Blu-ray players, PCs, or even other video streaming devices.

Anyone know what I should be running Plex on instead? I don’t want to just hook my computer up to the TV. Rokus are like $10, so ideally around that price point lol
It’s just not convenient, and not everyone in my house is as techy as I am, so having it work like a basic streaming setup is important. I also don’t want to run more cables through the attic lol
