"I want to press the button - an essay" - actually funny stuff! I didn't expect to chuckle, but I did several times. Wishlisted to keep an eye on it!

No, mid 70s but try as I might ffs, I can't remember which of these was the culprit. I want to say the John Saxon one, because it was always John Saxon. But even then I am unsure.

I require additional photos of Biscuit.

I mean, this all sounds like shit, yes. But sometimes things are only a little bit shit and yet the answer is still "redesign the approach" (ie: start over).

Hexbear is... I'm just old I guess, I don't understand. My instance is not defederated from them. Whenever I'm reading a post that originates from hexbear, I can always tell. Like it will just hit me and I will look at the source and yep, it's hexbear.

But I don't exactly understand why. I can't see that they have any particular worldview, they just have a unique (and contrarian) way of expressing... all worldviews, seemingly. It feels like an inside joke that I don't have enough information about to understand.

Doesn't seem like bots, Russian or otherwise. Too vague. Not enough of a directed agenda. Is it just trolls? They seem to earnest to be trolls.

There also is a Wikipedia article which I think is not written that well. And a lot of education material by churches or religious organizations which I did not cite for obvious reasons.

That's because Christian apologists constantly brigade those articles.

Edit: lol, and downvote lemmy comments I guess

What the hell is this talking about? A "bet over the phone about the outcome of the show?" McCartney "called during the live broadcast" and this was "the last time the two ex-Beatles communicated?" Says who?

The real story of April 24, 1976 exists, but the above words bear no resemblance to what actually happened. The story is here, complete with the SNL video here.

Oh god, I know all of these.

Also fuck Tim Kosse. Bundled Filezilla with malware and fucked up my machine in 2014. Had to reinstall Windows. I'll never use it again.

I use WinSCP on Windows and Forklift on MacOS.

I went there too. I think you're underselling the transporter. They acted like you were about to get on like a motion sim or something, lined everybody up on those rows in front of the doors, then everything went black, sparkles coming from everywhere, a giant rush of wind upward is what it felt like - very confusing - and then BAM, the lights came on and you were on the bridge of the Enterprise-D.

Hell of an effect and something I'll never forget.

And Quark's bar man. It was so cool.
