Honestly, ENT looks pretty good. I mean, not as good as TOS remaster, but being done natively in 720p (and even 1080 in later seasons), it doesn't look that bad.

Honestly, GIMP feels like it's been getting rapidly more livable as a photo editor recently.

Like, I still wouldn't call it suitable for professional use, but it's been causing me noticeably less pain since they finally introduced some non-destructive editing.

I like to imagine there’s just another Musk that’s better known in the Trek universe…

Funny, but I personally prefer in in the original Klingon:

Surely that's got to be in the replicator database; I mean, I think it would be a big mess up on the part of the Obsidian Order if Seska didn't at minimum have an opinion on jumja sticks, if not eat them frequently enough to get it programmed into the replicator.

I'm tired of multiverse plots, but I might make an exception if it allows them to bring Hemmer back without too severely messing up the overall plot of the show.

Oh, whoops. I guess I made a mistake in the Inkscape export. Guess I’ll fix that eventually.

In Archer’s case, yes.

However, Paris stole directly from the dealership, apparently.

ffmpeg can use several different AV1 codecs, with varying levels of performance.

Most aliens have forehead ridges; some, like Tandarand, have giant cheeks. But the humans, they have… pronounced philtrums!

I was actually going through the audiobook of this trying to gather and classify enough data to fine tune a Piper TTS voice of the Star Trek computer.

Haven’t finished it yet, but maybe one day. While I normally would have ethical qualms about commanding the likenesses of the dead, they actually did try to collect voice data before Majel Barrett died; unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to actually pull it off, but the attempt feels as close to consent for this sort of thing as one can get.

I don’t know. There’s something about the description of the ENT novels that rubs me the wrong way.

spoilerI just find it really weird to make Tucker Section 31 and add a whole convoluted thing about how he originally faked his death in 2155, but changed it to 2161 for some reason.
