The algorithms are the same. The models are different, being trained on a smaller data set.

They keep a/b testing and rolling out worse and worse mobile websites. They’ve gone and done it again. For any regular mobile website user that wasn’t affected by the 3rd party app issue, or for anyone who switched from a 3rd party app to the website because it wasn’t as bad as the 1st party app, well… Now it is. Now it’s possibly worse.

So, we might hope for a prolonged period of organic growth now. Especially if Lemmy doesn’t get flooded with meta discussions again.

Back at the attacking ship, obviously!

This is it. This is the moment Risa went too far.

I feel like the issue with Discovery is that it just shoe-horns in an overproduced and under considered last 2 episodes every season in the name of “stakes”.

Whatever his sexuality

It’s plain and simple. He’s pretty forward about that.

Oh, Mark comes up a few times. We eventually learn that he got married sometime after Starfleet gave up on Voyager being found.

Lt. Frye: “I’d like to perofkr a level 3 diagnostic on the primary buffer panel.”

Cptn. Reynolds: “Make it shiny.”

He wears a disguise

When you hoped for exactly 12002 of a thing.

Look, there’s no way Tuvok didn’t have “under no circumstances is my body, my mind, my soul, my organs, my DNA, or any products thereof to be integrated into any form, permutation, or byproduct of Nelix” in his last will and testament. Therefore, Tuvix had to go.

Look, if the kid wanted any right to the box set, they should have been born 30+ years ago, like any decent fan.

And so many eagles

The Doctor, the Rimmer of Voyager

So, some basic features that you can/used to get by just using a web browser, and soemthing that you can do directly via Patreon.

Definitely value for money.

Yes, that’s more or less right. Different systems will slice it different tlt, but for the most part there’s “government”, which includes all the mechanisms of state, and then there’s The Government, which is the cabinet.

Many systems have independent heads of state and heads of government. In these cases, you have a president with executive powers somewhat similar in concept, but generally less broad in scope, to the US president, and a prime minister or chancellor who is elected by Parliament or the legislative assembly to form an independent cabinet.

It would be like if your executive secretaries were selected by the majority party leader.

In British Commonwealth countries, things are slightly different, because our head of state is the British monarch, and the monarchy has operated under a policy of non-interference for, like, almost a century now. So, they just rubberstamp whatever the head of government presents to them.

Westminster parliaments also operate under a principle of parliamentary supremacy. There’s none of this “equal powers” stuff. The head of state asks parliament for things, but for the most part thr head of state exists to enact the will of Parliament.

The Senate is actually doing something interesting for once, but the Senate doesn’t usually put forward legislation, and they’re completely unable to put forward spending bills. And on top of that, they’re not The Government.

Much not.

Wow.

In a word? No.

I honestly think the soft-reboot in season 3 signals that they have no interest in that. There were a lot of really interesting things from DIS season 1 that I don’t think the current producers will touch them again after the mixed feedback from fans. Lorca, Ash Tyler, the Klingon internal politics of the 22nd century… There are a lot of interesting plot hooks there, but I can’t picture any of them being tugged on given how the Kurtzman shows have evolved.
