I’m still wandering around like a stunned bunny, but made the journey ahead of the wire.

So we can have multiple Star Trek communities on this instance. Days from is already set up.

By the way, I keep getting ‘request rejected by server’ messages when I try to reply. I’m logged in on Mlem which is in beta. Anyone else experiencing this?

It’s already available, but you might want to wait for the patch that’s in the works.

Whatever the technical reasons or not (and I treasure my original printing copy of the TNG Technical Manual too), my take in the Lower Decks tasking is that it falls in the toothbrush-to-clean-grout category of character-building tasks for junior officers.

In my view, having rewatched Voyager again decades after first run, the show not only took successful risks in several episodes like the Demon duology or The Thaw, it has some ‘best ever’ episodes for employing some classic Star Trek tropes.

At the time, I suspect some fans focused on the ‘not new idea’ more than ‘did it better than’ but at this point it’s fairly clear.

For fans who came to Voyager first (including our kids), the original TOS and TNG episodes that Voyager built upon just seem weak by comparison.

More, when SNW does something similar, people are viewing these kind of episodes from the perspective of how well done within a type rather than criticizing them for reworking a trope.

I believe I’ve figured out the issue for iPhones.

One has to close the keyboard before hitting the send arrow to post the comment.

However, rather than having the typical iPhone blue ‘Done’ command to close the keyboard, it says ‘Cancel’.

Of course, this intuitively suggests you would be canceling the comment when it’s just closing the keyboard.

Daft actually.

Not much time for follow ups on planets and species in 10 episodes, but hopefully the show will, like Lower Decks, start building on its own new canon instead of on what exists from other shows.

Thing 1: when posting, don’t hit cancel or you’ll lose your draft; but when commenting, if you don’t hit cancel, the server will refuse your comment.

Thing 2: you can only post in one group, not in your main feed. To get into a group, you need to hit the group’s title in a post (as the tabs to choose groups don’t seem to exist yet).

The iPhone app is fine for me. I haven’t tried loading it into our smart TV.
