(This is how we say "Same" on the This Might Be a Wiki Discord server, since the artist of this album is on that server and we have an emote in his honor.)
Thanks for the warning, but to make the the warning, can edit this and put "[NSFW]" in the post title, please?
Heck, if you want the stickers, you can easily print them on a good inkjet.
The 2023 IDW Star Trek Annual's plot was basically all the holodeck programs on the USS Theseus read "Photons Be Free". Luckily, Tom Paris happened to be there and understood what the phrase meant, and Captain Sisko dropped off holographic Spock, Janeway, Stamets, HMS Enterprise Picard and Riker, Sato, etcetera with their holographic equipment to settle on a planet.
Don't you mean that that you like PADDs with 3.7% deeper bevels?
I think the biggest issue with ENT is probably the sexualization of T’Pol, the culmination of a nasty habit in Berman Trek.
I could tune out 7’s catsuit because she was otherwise well-written and the good plotlines outnumbered the bad, but it feels like at least 75% of all T’Pol stories were of the horny Berman type, to the detriment of her character.
s/MP3s/FLACs/, but otherwise, I agree.
Drive space isn’t scarce these days, so I think keeping a lossless copy somewhere is good, if just to compress the audio for a device with less storage.
2 things:
- A lot of artists, you can pay money through Bandcamp or the artist’s store to get their music legitimately (and in lossless format, if you care about that kind of thing), and they often get a decent chunk of that money, especially when it comes to indie labels and self-published people.
- Why listen to (relatively) crappy YouTube audio when you can just get a FLAC or high bitrate MP3 off SoulSeek or simit?
At least in the objective legal sense, it very much is in the eyes of the YouTube terms of service and the law of most jurisdictions with strong copyright protections.
There is a legal distinction between streaming on YouTube (normal TOS-compliant use) and downloading the video as a whole through a 3rd party tool (circumvention of copyright protection, and YouTube gets no ad revenue with the download), which is usage outside the TOS.
Now, I don’t really give a darn about following US* copyright law for a megacorporation’s sake^1^ and have gone ahead and downloaded from YouTube, but it’s still piracy in the legal sense. This is not intended as a criticism of your actions, just a legal nitpick.
*Obviously, not everyone here is American (good riddance); this is just my personal experience. 1: Especially considering Google’s breaking it all the time with their ML models in my opinion.
puts on a fourth, solar-system scale tin-foil hat The Taelons from Earth: Final Conflict are actually using their skrill to puppeteer Talosiankind into puppeteering Vulcankind into puppeteering humankind to remotely fulfill their agendum, as of 3 years ago when they came. Among this pupeteering chaos, William Boone is searching for the truth... until he gets killed off, upon which weird half-human alien baby who instantly grows into an adult, who I think then searches for the truth? I don't know much after that - masochism can only get you so far in that series before you turn it off.
