Every single large server in this federation has at least one Star Trek community. There is even an entire server dedicated to Star Trek.

Not only that, these communities are some of the most active I've ever seen. There is no other franchise I know of that dominates the federation as much as Star Trek does.

So, what's the correlation with Lemmy and Star Trek? Why not other sci-fi series? Please, are there any connections?? Is this all coincidental?

Federation. Star Trek. IT. Linux. Programming socks. Gay. Furries.

This sums up the vocal group here. There are others, but these seem to be the most common.

Jesus, just call me out by name if you're going to be so specific

Well it would if you had all the right libraries, but it looks like one of them has a new version that made a breaking change. Shouldn't be more than 5 minutes' porting work if you know C++.

Sounds like you're trying to summon a nerdy Captain Planet

By your powers combined, I will run Arch Linux!

That’s just a red herring…

No, no, the flag is red, not the herrings.
