Farscape! I haven't seen it since I was barely even a teenager. I loved the show and it meant a lot to me, but there are a lot of years between then and now so I've forgotten a lot. I've been shocked by how outrageously, flamingly queer it has been. Not like the unacknowledged, and often unintentional, homoeroticism of most genre shows of this era but gay sex only half way into the first season.

The show is just pretty great in general too, I love the Henson puppets and aliens so much. Ben Browder is a great lead with a ton of charisma. Just be warned if there are any topics you'd want to avoid, the show would have a fairly long list of content warnings. It can be very dark and not everything has aged perfectly.

I used to play a game with a guy who became a mod of it's subreddit. Absolute sweetheart and always the guy putting is hand up to help out or contribute to the group. Guy hated being a mod but something needed to be done to stop it falling apart, so up his hand went as usual.

god I wish I liked actually playing Elite Dangerous, because shit like this is so cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-OTVKg2xI0

actually the show sucks, i just got to where the introduce Jool

my ears are fucking bleeding send a doctor

Release Date: 13 Oct, 2023

that was quick

also I've been wondering how I didn't remember that Claudia Black is the most gorgeous woman alive while watching season 1 and have now worked it out in season 2

She puts her hair up for the rest of the season. Wild how something so small makes me go from being jealous and wanting to be her to Ben Browder being the only eye candy. Really needs it down to frame her face properly.

lmao yeah I figured, I like you guys the most on lemmy for being gay and cool but keep my account elsewhere because I don't want to deal with defeds and people screaming boring politics at me for my instance when I just want to talk about sci-fi

Young gamers don't know the pain of a BSOD and the interminable wait getting back into game on an IDE hard drive. Even a CTD was a nightmare.

It's structure is also pretty good. Though most episodes are just an adventure of the week format, things are not forgotten between episodes. They are constantly cross referenced and characters develop across them, even in the most formulaic and seemingly throwaway episodes.

It's still far from the modern serialized standard (thank god I much prefer episodic shows) but it lacks one of the biggest pain points of shows of it's era.

EDIT: Except literally in the second episode, which I remember being the worst episode and so far (two seasons in) it's remained true.

This is restricted to a small part of modern gaming, though. In indie games-

Yeah, no, maybe the fact that you had to immediately jump to indie games should have been a hint that it's not a small part.

no, it is there
