Loved both Olli Olli games on the Vita. Fun times.

Is it really dead? I used a mirror just yesterday…

And when he isn’t (e.g. dislike of children) he has the strongest will to overcome his inadequacies. I wonder: was there an instance in which he didn’t win? (In TNG, never liked the ‘Picard’ show.)

So yeah, he wins this contest easy. As to who I like the most: Sisko.

Nice. I’ll send this to a friend how isn’t in the fediverse (yet?).

I get it.

And thus: internet café… or internet bar?

This post is pretty spot on.

Actually the public libraries I know have long abandoned the concept of enforced silence (and librarians ‘suggesting’ what the patrons should and shouldn’t read).

They already have different areas for different needs. And often a café close by or integrated (at least in larger cities). In fact the opening hours are most likely the main reason people don’t socialise there in the (late) evenings.

Actually there have been several instances where staff members forgot to lock the entry and libraries have been used outside of their opening hours - without any supervision - and the cool part is that nothing has been vandalized or stolen. Kind of like when libraries abandoned fees for overdue media and the number of returned stuff (in time and long overdue) increased significantly. Libraries have a more central position in our culture than most people realize, they only need to adapt to the times and (re)gain some respect of the public. As institutions they might be more needed than they have been in a long time (providing also reliable information, helping to gain (information) literacy and so on).

True, that is what the concept has become. But we need to remember that “third place” originally ment places of business like pubs, cafés, barbershops etc.

Modern cities do need the kind of places you ment - not more malls or apple stores (think I read that it’s a new trend to have those resemble places you can casually chill so they can casually sell you their stuff).

Thanks!

Yes, this is awesome.

Anyone know the source? Are there different editions/prints to worry about if one were to go looking for the book(s) themselves?

Nice. Are there larger version for each movie available somewhere?

That Tauntaun looks really cool.

TBH I was pleasantly surprised by SNW as well. I had written off the newer series after trying to like DSC for like 2.5 seasons…

It’s still not great, SNW pales in comparison to TOS for example (especially those episodes that take direct ‘inspiration’), but it’s decent enough to watch. Guess I’m just a Old Trek Geezer or whatever.

LOW is a different genre IMHO, loved almost every episode. But of course you have to know your Trek to appreciate the series.

Thanks! Helpful for me, I’m really not into trailers blasting from my speakers when I browse (on my 360 lol).

Courses on picking up women? Avoid!

Expression in the last panel is perfect.

So I wil(l) welcome us all!

It would blow my mind to have Wil on Lemmy. I bet he’d be fun and all around cool.

Thanks, I enjoyed that. Now onward to more research on this topic!

Ease of access I imagine… go to one place, find what you were searching for, have great downspeed - all in very little time/with very little effort.

Again: That’s just hearsay - I’m a lowly plebs who torrents.
