How has nobody memed this yet? You guys seem waaay too comfortable sharing personal information for the fact that this is the website of linux nerds, don’t you care about online privacy?

If a friend was sending their pretty legally obtained books that they downloaded from different website via the TOR browser to themselves via Telegram to have an easy way to download them on their tablet, should they stop that and connect their tablet to their PC via an USB cable instead?

Asking for a friend.

So it’s yours? That’s so cool! Do you still do pixel art or have any art-related social media where one could follow you?

I don’t think I should be voting on the poll since I’m still catching up on all Trek between TOS and Discovery, so I only know one of the 4 characters pictured and that’s Number One. But that got me to think about another possible name: Number21 or Number2One/NumberTwentyOne, or however you want to spell it. Idk if the 21 in your username has some meaning to you, but that way you’d be able to keep it :)
But it also kinda sounds like you’re ordering something off a menu so idk about that… ^^’

Just a guess, but I assume magazines are part of physical press. I know a lot of millenials (according to this definition of millenial) who buy magazines for their interests, be it music, games, geology, astronomy or history. A lot of times it overlaps with having been in tertiary education and I assume Gen Z would show similar statistics if you asked someone who was pursuing a masters degree or a doctorate.

It’s a screenshot of a character from the TV adaption of The Expanse, Jules-Pierre Mao. He’s famous for doing experiments with radiation ::: spoiler minor Leviathan Wakes/Season 1 spoiler and neglecting any human rights while doing so. :::

(I hope this works, it should show a shitty meme I made on my phone)

I know you’re joking but I have a friend who’s like that; their introduction to Star Trek were the 2009 movies and afterwards they started watching a bit of the previous series but never really got into it. So they keep telling me how amazing the 2009 movies are (I’ve seen them all once around the time the released, I don’t recall a lot of the plot, just that I found them to be very un-star trek, they watched them religiously) and how hot all the actors are and I just roll my eyes and say “yeah yeah, suuure”. Still love them, despite their weird Star Trek opinions.

As someone who’s leaning more towards the introverted side of the specturm this is just what I do at house parties when my social energy for the day has left me, but it’s not socially acceptable to go home yet. The longer the night goes on, the more I’ll be in the bathroom. Not because I drink so much, but because it’s the place where I’ll be guaranteed a few minutes to myself where I don’t have to keep pretending that I’m enjoying this.

I appreciate the advice but don’t worry too much about me; I’m currently doing one, max. two episodes per day and while it’s still semester break at my uni right now I don’t even manage to watch one every single day and when classes start again it’ll be even worse :') Plus I (presumably, still on the search for a doc to diagnose me) got ADHD so I gotta make the most out of the obsession while it lasts, the last time I was this obsessed with something it only took 2 years for the obsession to wear off…
But I’ve been more or less (mostly less for the past 8 years) invested in Star Trek since I was like 10 so I assume this is gonna be a life long thing for me :)

While I’m not able to help you with the setting up part, I’d use it and I like the idea :)
Though I don’t think it’s mainly the missing abilities that keep me from creating memes myself; it’s the fact that I feel I have too little knowledge compared to everyone else, but I’m on my way to change that, currently trying to watch all of Star Trek that I haven’t seen and rewatching the part I have seen.

I’m probably far from the first person to make this connection, but Noonien seems like a pretty obvious phonetic misspelling of Nguyen to me. I last watched TOS and a lot of material related to Khan as a kid and I don’t know too much about Roddenberry as a person, but given his other stances I think it’s not impossible that this is his “hidden” commentary on the Vietnam war. And even putting all of that aside for a moment; his “friend” (if he really existed) might’ve been ethnically Chinese, but born in a different Southeast Asian country and the native language there then adapted his Chinese name to fit their phonology. But I don’t know, I’m not a professional linguist, I might be way off here… (Ah I just saw Deceptichum had pretty much the same thought as me but was faster in writing them down ^^')

The SNW courtroom episode made me cry so hard, I loved it.

An episode of Star Trek after a long day.

My friends/sibling.

Researching my niche interests/finding out I share a niche interest with someone.

Taking a mental health walk.

Snacking unhealthy amounts of camembert, drinking black tea and Berber (green tea with spearmint) tea, snacking cucumber.

Eating good Falafel/Sushi/Asian/Middle-Eastern cuisine.

A good workout/feeling completely exhausted after doing martial arts.

Being able to help other people.

And because of your username: playing TotK.

I think it’s just that trans people will find it easier to transition from one dying platform to a beautiful new one. (I’m so sorry, but you basically set up the punchline for me, I’ll show myself out now.)

OP are you making these yourself? Or do you know where they come from? This really tickles my funny bone, I love them Claire’s memes.

You were the only one who asked a question that I could answer, it’s been too long since I last saw The Big Lebowski so I have no clue what the other comment is referencing tbh ^^’

Is everyone just commenting because of the instance I signed up on?! (Hi to the other Star Trek person, I see you ;)) I mean I welcome it, but I fear you’ll have to wait a few years before rail has warp drive, roughly until the 23rd century…
(Also disclaimer for everyone who reads this; I didn’t make this meme and I can’t remember where I downloaded it, I just thought this is perfect 196 material, but if the OP sees this and wants it removed I’ll do so of course)
