Tawny did a guest spot on the Greatest Trek podcast recently, and shed a little more light on how this thing came into being.

Apparently, it was Paramount that was pushing to get a Trek sitcom off the ground, and Alex Kurtzman wasn't sure it could work. But he mentioned it to Tawny, and she rode for the idea.

 

Kind of a trashy headline - here's the full quote:

we keep writing it, and we keep turning things in, and they keep saying, 'Please keep writing.' So, as long as they allow us to do that and they don't say, 'Stop. Close your computers and go home,' we'll continue making it.

Yeah, "Ronald B. Moore" was just seen on the holodeck Okudagram in the original episode. It may not have been legible in the pre-remaster version of the show.

I would love to see the alternate universe Star Trek V where he got to make exactly what he had in mind, without any interference or budgetary constraints.

When the book was initially announced, I didn't think much of it, but it seems like Visitor really put a lot of work into this thing.

I watched this last night - I have to admit, when I watched the "Unification" short, one of the first things I thought about was Shatner having lost touch with Nimoy prior to Nimoy's death - he recounts (his side of) that story here.

I think it's clear at this point that municipal funding regulations need to be completely renegotiated, but I doubt the political will is there.

Good news - after getting real bad today (okay, that part's not good news), it looks like we've fixed federation with lemmy.world and a number of other instances. Things should be within normal parameters.

More specifically, federation from us to lemmy.world has a delay of about 57 seconds, while federation from lemmy.world to us is about 1.7 hours (this is admittedly not ideal, but also not that unusual).

This was another decent episode. I have to say, though, I don't think this season is "hitting" for me quite as much as past seasons.

Yeah, I have no idea how that stuff will work if instances are running different versions.

Federation is an imperfect thing, but hopefully we'll get this sorted soon enough.

A couple of weeks ago, federation from .world fell behind by about 3 days if you can believe it.
