Maybe it’s just I’m a relative noob to build systems, but gosh, do I love Meson.
The documentation’s pretty okay - not perfect, but better than cmake - and it feels like I can actually learn it by example through looking at other projects’ setups.
I can live with using other build systems for other projects, but for personal projects, I’ll always choose Meson. I’ll always push for it if a project I’m working on needs to choose a build system.
I feel a bit insulted that Bashir didn’t even make Lieutenant Commander in his entire life in Starfleet, considering he was very young when we last saw him.
Interestingly, we see an okudagram in PRO that confirms prime Harry hit Lieutenant by 2384. Unfortunately, I can’t post it, as my instance is updating my image storage infrastructure right now.
Actually, it could be a “great filter” situation; mostly only ensign Kims end up in situations where they end up accidentally switching multiverses. Lieutenant Kims are far less likely to end up in such a situation, thus the small sample size.
In the recent IDW comics, I’m pretty sure Harry Kim tries to blow up the Tzenkethi home world while working for Starfleet Intelligence. Tom had left Miral with Harry, not knowing Harry would take the baby on such a crazy mission; Harry has an EMH in his secret hideout on the Tzenkethi homeworld to change diapers.
Edit: He also goes by the code name Kingsnake.
At least in the US, they’re all on there.
But then again, people might not want to support Paramount because of their collaboration with Gul Donal. Currently, my parents pay for it, so I used it, but they seem open to the idea of collecting physical media releases and may eventually jump ship because we mostly just watch Trek on it.
Of course, I think the best way to do physical media is to buy used through local businesses rather than directly pay some crappy executives. Last I checked, I think I’ve seen up to LD season 4 on shelves.
You could do signup through a form and just throw a QR code on a poster.
My university Linux Users Group usually uses Crytpad (which is FOSS and seems federated, and has a flagship instance) to create forms for votes, so that might do the trick for you.
Infinity Train is an animated sci-fi/fantasy anthology series with 4 seasons. It’s set on the eponymous vehicle that runs in a barren Mars-like environment; each car has its own self-contained, often-surreal miniature world.
Each season focuses on a different person (or group of people) who has been transported to the train and their efforts to find a way off, but also usually contains some characters from the previous season. Kate Mulgrew of Star Trek: Voyager fame plays a recurring character throughout the entire series.
Seasons 1 is still quite good but the most tween-oriented, while season 2 gets a bit darker but still maintains some of that focus. Season 3 is a beautiful dark tragedy. Season 4 is okay; it’s a prequel to the other seasons. It got rated TV-MA despite being much tamer than season 3; I’m guessing part of that is season 3 was nuts, but it’s also really suspicious that it got this rating when it is the one season where they vaguely hinted the protagonists were gay.
Unfortunately, it got canceled and disappeared from most places for a while as part of the Warner Bros suicide for tax purposes a few years back; now, S1, S2, and S4 can be bought, but piracy is still the only way to watch season 3. Luckily, the whole series has been on Internet Archive for ages, and no copyright claims have been made against it.
I feel for you, having had to put down a dog in 2022 and having one who might be getting close.
I feel the need to point something out, however; as the meme goes, “Sir, this is ~~a Wendy’s~~ c/Risa.” In other words, you’re making a lot of serious posts in a community primarily meant for memes and crapposting, where we come to relax. For general Trek-related discussion, c/startrek is probably a better idea.
Anyhow, sorry for your pain, and here’s a belated welcome to the fediverse.
Maybe ask around and request to put up posters in a local library?
Also, see if your local university has a group already, and maybe if the age difference isn’t creepy, see if you can hang with them.
Love it. Pleasurably campy, occasionally actually quite good despite its comically bad animation.
But honestly, what animation have you actually watched? Infinity Train is a solid piece of television, with season 3 being one of the best pieces of media I’ve ever experienced. I find it weird to broadly dismiss animation as a general storytelling medium; there are some things you can do with animation that just doesn’t look good in live action.

Note: I'm not casting all Republicans as a "skin of evil" here; I feel many of them are just people trying to make their way in the world whose daily struggles and fears have been amplified manipulated by the "skin of evil", an administration that constantly denies human rights and demonizes (as well as convinces its followers to partake in the demonization of) people who, for the most part, are also just trying to make their way in the world. I've known Republicans, and while the people they give their support to frighten me, most of the ones I've know aren't demons.
EDIT: To be clear, I’m not saying Republican voters did nothing wrong, that they don’t deserve consequences, or that we should avoid making them feel bad. In many ways, the “skin of evil” is their collective wrongs and the way they enabled the current horrors. The evil, however, is a subset of a person (sometimes almost the whole set, though), while the “skin of evil” is the set of evil. Also, I admit I feel a bit on the availability heuristic and that “most of the ones I know” isn’t the strongest evidence.

Once by Archer in ENT:"Carpenter Street" (though T'Pol did more of the work), and another by Paris and Tuvok in VOY:"Future'sEnd".
No answers like, "They're all from Earth", "They're all in some version of Starfleet or United Earth Fleet", etcetera.
My Answer
All three have stolen a Dodge-branded car.
In fact, Paris and Archer stole nearly exactly the same kind of blue Dodge Truck, Archer in ENT:"Capenter Street" and Paris in VOY:"Future's End". I found this out while browsing the Memory Alpha facts for the Enterprise episode.
Bonus if you can think of other weird ones.
Yep. That's it's standard abbreviation in fandom. Other common ones you might already know:
