Please understand: I mean this in a very, very loving way. Lemmy has so much content and so many references that I do not understand but it’s awesome seeing all these passionate communities outside of my usual circles.

        Okay, I’ll tell you it’s insufficiently nerdy. How about a game that’s been played since 1983 and has just gotten to the second turn?

        The only game that came with its own protractor. I’m not joking.

      I watch star trek but don’t use Linux as a primary operating system due to it not meeting specific requirements of mine

        Lmao. I don’t really care what OS people use. I’m not really passionate about any OS. I just use it as a medium to do things I enjoy so I’m really not interested in any OS talk about any operating system. I use all 3 OS daily pretty much (Linux, Mac and Windows).

    All 3 are leftist, based on rejecting individual ownership, and related to FOSS (tangentially in Star Trek’s case), and all 3 are nerdy as hell. They have a lot in common under the hood.

    With startrek.website we’d hoped creating a Star Trek themed instance might encourage other ex-moderators to start topic-specific instances too, and it would kick off a flourishing of myriad communities run by devoted moderators, a Lemmyverse so diverse and inspiring that not even Reddit could further justify it’s own existence in the presence of such an obviously superior system.

    Instead it turned out “Star Trek and Linux” was enough to satisfy nearly everyone’s tastes (both subtle and gross).

    All the star trek memes convinced me to start a star trek watch through. Didn’t realize there were so many dang episodes, its gonna take a while.

        I most certainly am going to, I’ve watched alot of random episodes from multiple different series, but my partner has only watched a few with captain janeway. We just finished part 1 of the menagerie, honestly wish we had skipped the original pilot so the episode would hit harder for her, but it is what it is.

          If you ever get to Strange New Worlds and Discovery, they flesh out The Menagerie in all kinds of interesting ways. My only complaint is that they didn’t make Vina look deformed enough when she appeared.

      Every night I look forward to new adventures on whatever Star Trek series that I’ve come to.

      If I fall a sleep during an episode, I blame the episode, and I haven’t regretted cutting them short like that. The good ones will be worth it and most of the bad ones too, but when the android character is playing a theater part of Sherlock Holmes on the holodeck and I’m supposed to give a shit? No.
