Picked up the Bluray series off eBay. Physical media seems like the way to go, to really own anything

That or sailing the digital sea, which ig you could consider a bunch of DRM-free files on a drive you own to still be “physical media”
Same. Bummed that we’ll probably never get remasters of DS9 and Voyager.
There is a nice DS9 upscaling project that is very good (not as good as a proper remaster, but still impressive).

They only provide download instructions (sftp) via discord, unfortunately. (https://discord.gg/qTgXcG9T). It’s very large (300+ GB for the series).
They are working on Voyager now.
Iirc, the studio(s) likely wouldn’t be able to do much better for Voyager as they didn’t record Voyager onto film like the others. They cheaped out and recorded direct to VHS
direct to VHS
No. Videotape, sure, but not VHS.
… Ripped to a media server. It’ll be a cold day in hell before I can be arsed to stand up and put media into a machine anymore.
Just gotta shield my media server from EMPs and we’re golden.

Finally, someone else who knows of this very obscure community!
The artworks are wild.
Now you’re talkin’ my language! 😎
okay 🤗
You mean those wealth hoarding lizards that fire people and don’t pay taxes?
Isn’t that basically the same thing?

Gold has some uses. Diamonds have a few industrial applications as well. Some other gems too in optics I think, but natural ones would probably be useless there.
Both gold and a lot of gemstones have a great many uses in industry and electronics, garnet for example is used in water jet cutting and if you have a smart watch there is a good chance its touch screen is made of sapphire
And then there is the sheer amount of gold we use in plating soooo many of our printed circuit boards and connectors
With the exception of gold, all of your above examples are usually either abundant and cheap (garnet), or are cheaper and better when made in a lab. For example: Sapphire is just aluminum oxide – no one is cutting phone screens from mined gems. And lab made diamonds are pennies on the dollar.
The federation is like living at your parent’s house. Things are free under their roof, but if you want to drink with Quark, you’re going to have to trade your star fleet allowance for latinum.
I like to imagine they’ve all got unlimited credit lines but they play along with the Ferengi to respect their culture. Their system might fall apart if they are forced to acknowledge it only works with artificial scarcity.
Definitely no social commentary there btw.
The real problem is Paramount+ won’t accept any of my worthless gold.
Press it with latinum, hyu-mon.
You got this upside-down, friend.
They’re pressed with one another, it says it’s suspended in the structure of the gold.
I’m seeing it like a ruby set in silver, the silver makes it jewelry/useful but the ruby gives it value.
Fair. 🙂
Does Paramount have ads?
#kodi_life
Not as invasive as others for now, but yeah.
Have it included with Walmart+ and so far everything I’ve watched has had one 30 second ad at the beginning and I can return anytime without having to watch anymore.
Walmart+ ?? Is that a joke?
We found the subscriber.
What a pleb. A true gentleman subscribes through Waitrose Platinum.
That’s my current setup but through the Kodi addon so I haven’t seen one yet
How’s your Burger King?

Arrr, matey!
Stremio + torrentio + real-debrid friends.
Fuck that. Just steal it, amiright fellow pirates? Yo-ho, yo-ho, I deserve everything for free!

Having flash backs to half a screen of toolbars and a purple monkey on my parent’s computer in the late 90s.
Ditto.
I’m nostalgic for Bonzi Buddy. That’s not something I thought I would say. He was a creepy lying spying bastard, but at least he was kind of useful. The modern Internet and App ecosystem isn’t as cute.
