Starfleet Academy seems like it’s trying to be Harry Potter/Hogwarts. Star Trek Discovery has so much forced drama. Many of the characters are super annoying and in both shows I feel like a sense of professionalism is completely lost. Sure Starfleet isn’t exactly a military organization, but it’s pretty damn close and I just can’t take those shows seriously. I barely made it through Discovery. It was really hard watch. Picard and Strange New Worlds were just OK.

God help you, flick that bean or else.
Put it on a giant clock face and see if humans can adapt.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Feeding my family alone is expensive. I can't afford to feed all of y'all.
3·3 months agoI agree with this. I love cooking and I’m a man. I do all of the cooking in my household. My fiancee never really learned how and I’d prefer to be the one who cooks anyway. I grew up in a very large family and I was the oldest so I learned a lot of things to help out like housekeeping and cooking. Boys really should learn how to cook. For me, it’s a fun creative outlet. It’s one of my favorite things to do.
They do it because they’re banking on elderly people to not know what they’re paying and lazy/oblivious people not to care. A long time ago, I would help older people with various things. Sometimes I’d play music for them or just listen to their stories. One thing I realized is that so many “legitimate” businesses exist simply because they’re scamming elderly people. I even worked for a PC repair shop for a few years. You can guess who 90 percent of our clientele was. We’d sell really shitty refurbished PCs to them for nearly a thousand dollars. They’d force me to try to make them trade in their PC regardless of the issue so we can part out their good parts and sell them some bare bones piece of shit. I felt so scummy while I worked there. It’s really gross how much of our economy is based on scams.
What was the joke? Michelob Ultra is my choice for light beer. It just tastes better than the other light alternatives. I’d prefer better beer, but sometimes you have to count your calories.
That doesn’t surprise me. My partner sees people she doesn’t know trying to sell drugs on Instagram all the time. They aren’t even a little discreet about it.

Games@lemmy.world•Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was OverwhelmedEnglish
1·4 months agoI second this. The Steam Deck is the best console and a really cheap gaming PC at the same time. You can emulate and use it for other programs without needing to mod it like you would a console and even though it’s linux, it’s so easy to use. You don’t really need to use the desktop mode for much if you don’t want to, but it’s not bad at all. I’ve switched to Bazzite as my only OS for my main computer because of how much SteamOS has impressed me.

25·5 months agoLately, I’ve only been buying indie games. I can’t justify dropping $70-$80 on one game and even when those games go on sale they’re usually $40-$50.
If you read reviews and do a little research you’ll find that there are actually a lot of really cool indie games and you can get multiple games for just a fraction of the cost of double or triple A games.

2·5 months agoIt still costs more to make an indie or found footage film than it would to make a game or music or other art. I watch a lot of found footage so I’m pretty familiar with the style and do a lot of research on the ones I like. The average on the low end of the price spectrum is around $10,000 although some have been made for around $1,000.
Still there’s a lot of stuff out there. Another thing to consider is that art, music, and games from foreign countriea are way more accessible than movies and shows from abroad.

4·5 months agoThis is my point exactly. Art should be accessible for both the artist and those that enjoy the art. In the current landscape too many artists is a terrible thing for most besides the ones who are already wealthy, but it doesn’t have to be that way. I see so many extremely talented and creative people who can’t afford to make art and are forced to waste their talents because they can’t survive as an artist. Good art takes a lot of time to create and only wealthy people have free time.

9·5 months agoThe price it costs to make movies and the services that promote them. There are way more new movies than you realize. The market is just as oversaturated. You’re just less likely to see low budget indie movies the same way you prominently see low budget games and music unless you follow cheap horror circles and things like found footage.

I agree. I enjoyed it for what it was. Some characters were kind of annoying too. I started it immediately after finishing Discovery and it was a very welcome change. I still prefer the older shows though.
