You'll dig it if you're a Trek fan, especially if you like the ships. Oh lordy, there are ships. However, it's an older game, and it's very grindy/paygate-y, if you know what I mean. The game is free to play, but it really pushes microtransactions and loot boxes. I wouldn't say it's any worse than your average MMO, though.

That said though, it's a great game if you're a Trekkie. It's set in the Prime universe, picking up several years after Spock disappears in the 2009 Abrams movie. It's still in active development, with new content coming out all the time, and several actors from past shows have done voice acting for certain storylines. And the ships, holy crap, the ships...

3,237.5 hours, Star Trek Online. I recently started playing again after a 9-year hiatus, so about 2,900 of those hours are from like a decade ago.

Btw (shameless plug), we're trying to get a STO community up and running in the verse: https://kbin.social/m/sto. Any other captains around here, feel free to drop by!

Wow, that is so incredibly disappointing. Fuck you, Carlos.

Santana also shouted out his “brother” Dave Chappelle. The comedian previously said he identifies as “Team TERF” — aka a trans-exclusionary radical feminist — in his 2021 Netflix special.

Oh, of course he hangs out with other hateful jerks! Fuck. This is all so gross.

Oh, I'm sure the Russian apologists on Hexbear are already refining their script.

Programming I really don’t see myself doing but I do admit having some curiosity towards python, going for years, but I really don’t know where to start to approach it.

You'll probably want to start small at first (random number generator, calculator, tic-tac-toe), but eventually you could create an app that would help you with your business. IDK, just thinking out loud, maybe inventory management or a system maintenance tool?

My background is not on STEM and I was always passed the notion that without roots in hard math I can’t go far in programming.

I made that mistake years ago and have always regretted it. I mean, I'm doing just fine now, but that fear of math really did me no favors in life. I really wish I had pursued a CS degree.

both sides

Only one side is banning books, man.

Yeah, what FaceBear said, "boosts" are better as a "saved" list. Boosts are unique to Kbin, and currently they determine a thread's popularity, not upvotes as you would think. That's supposed to change soon, according to the instance owner (who is a real nice guy btw).

When you upvote a thread, it's counted as a "favorite." E.g. If you look at the list of people who favorited this thread, you'll see me listed because I upvoted it. And if you click on the "Favourites" link in the main menu, you can see all the threads that you upvoted.

Regardless I’m in a much better place now than I was before I started it and I do think the drug can be given a good part of the credit.

That is awesome. If you don't mind my asking, are you taking another med now, or are you off them completely?

Wait. This rings a bell, was there also an Arnold Schwarzenegger impression on this mp3?
