You know one Christmas I would like the family to just quietly enjoy a good Christian Star Trek meme without someone mentioning Doctor Who!

Absolutely

Ok sorry, where I’m from saying you are “truly tired” of something implies you think it’s bad.

Actual Budget is software. It can be run on a home server if desired.

Canonically it’s 47

“Smaller more personal stakes” doesn’t mean something will be good, either!

Yeah I learned this playing Kerbal! It actually requires more energy to send something into the Sun than out of the solar system entirely.

Excuse me, were you talking to me?

That user was literally banned from StarTrek.website instance for harassment of it’s users, this is a textbook example of the problem with “call out” communities you are advocating for. They are more about creating drama than any kind of fact finding, let alone justice.

Well said!

Calling out mods for what? Not allowing your brand of freeze peach? Personally I think Lemmy needs more strong moderators because right now most instance’s “all” feeds are just another stale parade of “memes”. There is a lot of junk filler, and very few unique communities that make the Lemmyverse something that stands apart from Reddit.

I would also encourage instance admins to de-federate instances that host your idea of a “community” purpose built to publicly “call out” users. It’s toxic.

This makes me glad that at least he was cast as a central character in a LD episode.

I have had similar thoughts, I think the answer ultimately lies in active mods that can really get to know a community and it’s users and identify when users are pushing a narrative even if they can’t confirm if they are a bot or not.

Also as @[email protected] pointed out, user registrations. On startrek.website we have a question that is easy for a star trek fan to answer but not easy for a bot (although getting back to your concern, chatGPT probably would have no problem)

That is absolutely brutal lmao

Was? It hasn’t gone anywhere…

It is yours.

lol I was going to suggest “it just works”

I would not have suggested that before this year but it’s definitely true now, or at least truer than for Windows/Apple.

I hate to be that guy, but “they” (the people with power to change course) have absolutely listened and understood. They don’t care.

Some more popular games will have mods to make the Xbox buttons look like a DS4s buttons, buuuut if the game studio devs didn’t create the assets then they didn’t create them.
