They must be dishonored in the most honourable way.
Same, so I gain my minimum sustenance to work for my overlord employer and pay my “well invested” taxes to the government who grants me this quality of life. How could my landlord live if I’m greedy and eat too frequently or varied.
Sorry to hear, I do sympathise. I hope things get better for us. I’m still figuring out how to pay my new 30% rent increase this month after five previous rises this year already…
They were shot on negative 35mm film, and edited on tape in that aspect ratio.
Only some odd scenes and shots were captured on tape, but it was mostly film. They won’t need to upscale any live scenes, but they would have to work on rendering all the digital effects and blue screen shots for example. As it was only ever edited on tape, it’s unlikely that the digital effects could be ever rendered or upscaled, it would probably need to be entirely reworked from scratch.
Very daunting task. Although, they did it for TNG. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Edit: Someone pointed out the obvious in a reply. Yes, of course they will need to be scanned for a better resolution scan. I already pointed out it’s on film, and even mentioned why it’s not just that simple. (Hence the digital effects needing to be redone).
It was indeed that, I’m guessing the missing mass of both of them must have been stored in the buffer. :)
Really good acting for Tuvix, must have been hard to only have one season as reference for the actor to mimic and merge both their behaviours and personalities.
Only watched that episode again yesterday, I did enjoy it. It was pretty cute that they both felt no shame for it naturally happening. But I feel they lost an opportunity to make something more happen as a consequence of travelling such speeds. Could have been a little cooler! :)
I’ve just watched Tuvix and it hurts to ignore how they produced two individuals with their memory intact and from DNA that surely is incomplete. I have to suspend my beliefs of course, it is a show I want to enjoy.
Though, I was very stoned and tired and probably missed someone’s psuedo science star trek explanation.
I’ve been enlightened.
I feel you buddy.

“There’s been a rumor that – you know, a very nice rumor – that you go outside in the sun or you have heat and it does have an effect on other viruses,”
“I’m going to speak to the medical doctors to see if there’s any way that you can apply light and heat to cure, you know, if you could.”
I had a good few years running until you did that, mate…
I think I was partially addicted after having used it routinely out of boredom and free time for over a decade…
But once RIF and the other 3rd party apps got strangled out, and RES went into a state of no longer being updated, I couldn’t power use Reddit anymore. So once those were uninstalled and removed, I had given myself no choice. Out of principle I couldn’t support them and how they treated their mods or communities, nor could I use the site in their epically stupid vanilla default way, I had to just quit.
Cold turkey since.
Will admit, I have to search online for technical help, and a lot of discussion did and still does happen on Reddit, so I’ll still occasionally have to use the site for reference. But no interacting with it at all.
I still feel the twitches and urges to use it from so many years of habit, and it’s difficult, but I’ve managed to do it.
Shame there’s not as many people so inclined to use Reddit just a little less, doesn’t even need to be cold turkey; it WOULD make a difference. But there’s nothing wrong with using it, and you shouldn’t be judged for it either. It’s fine to be anti Reddit, but not anti user… in most cases ha ha! I’m pro voice and choice! ;D
I’m trying to use this as an alternative, and out of necessity as content does run thin sometimes on Lemmy I do end up using it less than I did with Reddit. But that’s healthy for me personally.
There’s less pressure and competitiveness on here for me, so I try to post better quality comments/content than I may have used to on Reddit. When Lemmy isn’t down or breaking my comment/post submissions I’ll have a better time engaging with the site, I don’t find myself rushing to comment before 400 irrelevant (sometimes one word) comments wash it away and bury it like on Reddit. I don’t find myself writing half a comment, and then deciding to quit half way as much.
Plus, people engage with posts and see them much longer than on Reddit, usually after a single day their posts would be entirely dead; guess it’s mostly due to less users at this point though.

You are definitely right that it’s not that common an occurrence on the other instances. But yes, I should have clarified these issues are with lemmy.world.
That doesn’t mean someone isn’t going to pull those up to reprimand you, or monitor your work.
There’s privacy from personal things, then there’s overbearing micro management who will literally track “Mouse hovering” and “Keyboard Idle Time” or how long you take to write an email.
Amingst the other creative ways they can try to keep you at a level “non promotable” status or whatever leverage to control you.
I’ve never had to suffer from it, I do my job, but as a systems admin/engineer for over 15 years, I’ve definitely worked at places that implemented it at our expense, or we had to set it up for our clients using it against their own staff.
Don’t forget the agents they install that take screenshots every 10 seconds!
