Anytime! Long live and prosperous, friend

It really does. But I'm glad to be finding alternatives, and especially ones that I don't have, like, latent guilt about using. It's nice to use something that isn't corporate for a change.

I'll check out the site. Any other fediverse/noncorporate sites you recommend?

That's fantastic. You've got a great voice for this kind of stuff, too.

I've been trying to get off of other sites and into fediverse alts. I haven't found an imgur replacement, so I made a pixelfed account. I've basically just been cramming it full of stolen memes. I've never had more available space on my phone! Lol.

Oh that's an awesome idea!

We've been discussing the need to get some of our yarn to a new home. There's so much, and it's just never going to be used as there's just literally too much.

Oh shit is that actually you? You have an awesome sense of humor. When you cracked up at the end was fantastic.

Stamets, I'm browsing through Risa today, and your memes are consistently absolute freaking treasures. I just want to thank you for enabling me to avoid responsibilities and reddit.

... I am also acquiring them all.

At first I thought you were making a joke, and then I remember that's an actual freaking episode. God I need to rewatch ds9.

Majel Barrett is without a doubt my favorite trek actress. Just so damned good.

The attached audio is absolutely amazing. I think I'm in love.

Vulcan: do not touch the hot griddle. It will burn you.

Human: You can't tell me what to do! Burns hand

Vulcan: I will apply medication to the burn.

Human: I'm not burned! This is what human flesh looks like! Holds up mangled extremity

Vulcan: ...

Human: ...

Vulcan: ...

Human: burns other hand

And yet somehow, we make it work.

AITA

I (40sM Starship captain) created a clone of my best friend (30sM engineer) using a worm and then forced it to live out a rapid lifecycle to harvest his organs to save my best friend. The doctor was totally on board with all of this, but then at the end the clone wanted to live and had found a way to save his life, and the doctor was crying about losing his son. Am I the asshole for forcing a man to his death? I just don't see it.

I (stopped counting at 300F symbiotic humanoid) came back to work at a space station my former host used to work at, and now my ex husband won't speak to me. AITA for not letting him move on?

Am I (Klingon, warrior) the asshole for frequently and repeatedly abandoning my son after his mother died?

I'd I had any idea how to mod a community, I'd totally make that one. Just trek themed TIFU and AITA posts. It would be glorious!

It's been a while since I had the phone, but iirc it would drop wifi constantly, Bluetooth would occasionally and randomly cause the phone to seize up and you had to do a hard reset, you could only have a Bluetooth device connected to it alone, if the device was also connected to something else no audio would play from either device (I think that had a work arojnd in dev option, but i dont recall what it was), the screen would go unresponsive if you had youtube playing in background mode, and a handful of other things.

Most of them were worth it just for the Hold For Me feature, though. Lol. God I miss that.

Just scoured the mastodon, and haven't really seen anything. It sounds like a huge undertaking, so I'm guessing it's probably delayed? The dev seems like a good guy, though!

I switched from a pixel 6 to an A53. I lease my phones through T-Mobile with jump on demand, so I can switch pretty often if I want to (I hate doing it. I like finding a decent phone and sticking to it), and I'm thinking about switching again. The A53 is super laggy, and it crashes frequently, as well as a weird thing with WiFi becoming super slow unless I restart

Any idea if the 54 is better? I'd like to stick to Samsung if possible, because I have a Samsung tablet and they work well together. I really miss LG. :(

I had the pixel 6. Is the 7/7a less glitchy? There were constant weird issues with the 6. Which, tbh, I could mostly get past. The reason I swapped out was because of lack of HDMI support. I can't always use Chromecast, and I like being able to mirror my screen to a monitor I have on my sewing table.

Whoops, just saw this. Thanks!

Just started it. Chapter 5. I'm in love with hearing Garak's voice again! I knew I missed him, but I didn't realize exactly how deep in the feels it would get me.

Depending on the context, I could see myself actually using this. Lol.
