  • Yep … I was thinking of that episode when I wrote the post. Unfortunately I don’t have a clear enough memory of it to get into details, and I might find you to be right on a re-watch.

    Nonetheless, my memory of the episode is that it wasn’t really about anything “ethically meaty”. It might have been enjoyable or interesting, but it seemed primarily character driven, inline with your summary of it (Burnham’s character especially and the dynamic of her immaturity, stubbornness and determination/ambition), which would mean it isn’t really relevant to my thoughts or as a contrast with SNW S2E2 … ?



  • No. Lemmy doesn’t allow you to follow mastodon accounts or any personal accounts, incl lemmy accounts, for that matter. Similarly, following a lemmy community from mastodon, while possible, generally doesn’t work well.

    Kbin provides parallel interfaces to both threaded and microblog content that works well.

    Generally though, it’s an unsolved problem trying to unify the whole fediverse into a single interface.

    It will be interesting to see if lemmy will evolve to enable some sort of user based following. At the moment, keeping things simple with community subscriptions is part of how lemmy is developed.









  • Yea, in general, it seems it was really just part of the whole season 1 shitiness and the crappy politics behind it.

    I did a rewatch of the early TNG seasons not long ago and recall it being fairly obvious that even though S3 is “when it gets good”, there was a notable difference between seasons 1 and 2 with S2 being clearly underrated. I think S2 is more up and down, with episodes probably as bad as s1 (like the finale, but that’s unfair) but also with episodes clearly better. I would guess that it was S2 that kept the show alive.
