They should take it to their captain

The unspoken thing about the Prime Directive is that a Federation Captain’s most solemn duty is deciding when to ignore it, and the same goes for the Temporal Prime Directive.
4X games don’t really work on controllers.
EDIT: apparently Stellaris did eventually come to consoles three years after its initial release so it’s not totally impossible but I sure wouldn’t want to play Stellaris without a mouse or without mods
It came out in October, it won’t come to consoles.
Absolutely. I wasn’t saying Netflix was at any point morally right, and the rise of the Netflix original was definitely part of the beginning of the end of paid legal streaming being a good experience for the viewer.
Netflix had a near monopoly on the streaming but not on the actual shows and movies. All the studios still owned their shows and movies and could unilaterally pull them off Netflix and make their own services, evidenced by the fact that that’s exactly what they did. Importantly, the monopoly was not vertically integrated. Similarly, Valve makes very few of the games available on Steam.
Streaming will not get better as the studios fully monopolize it. Not without at the very least and most liberal an enforced ban on vertical integration in visual media and on exclusive licensing agreements. That won’t happen under capitalism though, so the only real improvement will be in the resurgence of piracy.
The best tv and movie streaming platform in history, Netflix circa mid-2010s, had no monopoly on content whatsoever. All these studios trying to monopolize their content onto their own streaming services has only made streaming worse.
Women tend to use emojis more, so redditors and by extension lemmitors hate emojis

I love the way Mariner uses Starfleet as an adjective
We do have :emoji: syntax, when I start typing after a : I get a popup of matching emojis, or I can pick from a (very long) list. They just show up as pictures for the rest of you due to federation. They’re also sized more consistently for users viewing from hexbear but I hear lemmy is going to fix that for everyone soon. Our Emoji Science Officer, or perhaps People’s Comissar of Emojis, is @WhyEssEff@hexbear.net she does the emotes.
At hexbear we already have custom star trek emotes and a community for user suggested custom emojis
Management is necessarily the enemy of the worker.
He’s the head of the company, he could accept the union’s terms on behalf of Paramount any time.
He could resolve it tomorrow by accepting the union’s reasonable demands. He could have resolved it weeks ago by accepting the union’s reasonable demands.
It’s what the entire article is about
“The notion that the strikes saved the company is wildly overstated,” Bob Bakish said of Paramount today.
Any statement from management about strikes should be assumed to be the direct opposite of the truth.
Who gives a shit what the president of the company thinks of the strikes?
The Federation’s position on genetic engineering is not well considered
The meat Federation citizens eat isn’t really an animal product. In the Orville, it’s actually made explicit that killing an animal for food is regarded as tantamount to murder in the Union.
I’m watching star trek on live.hexbear.net right now
