Let me guess, you're someone who, hmm, finds information on Wikipedia and, aaah, has an interest in decentralised open-source projects. The spirits tell me you are not a fan of Windows and you dislike genocidal maniacs.

Oh my god it’s like you KNOW ME

[-] gedfromgont@piefed.ca 21 points 1 week ago

You also like Linux and Star Trek

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 19 points 1 week ago

Half correct! I never got into Star Trek.

Never got into star trek, yet.

IT WAS FORTOLD

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 4 points 1 week ago

Well shit in that case I wonder where I should start

[-] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Lower Decks seems like the most accessible, though I haven't seen it.

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago

Lower Decks is made of at least 50% inside jokes and organic fun-pokery. Which is brilliant if you already know Star Trek but probably very whooshy if not. Is what I'd say if I didn't know there are indeed people who got into Star Trek starting with Lower Decks which confuses me endlessly.

It is reference heavy and you can usually tell when they're making a reference but it's usually funny or charming enough that not knowing the references doesn't take away enjoyment. Then you watch tng, ds9 and voy save rewatch lower decks and realize most of that insane cartoon stuff was actually pulled from the old shows. It's great.

I mean Star Wars

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 2 points 1 week ago

Also no! At this point I’d probably just start helping the person out.

I don’t like Battlestar Galactica, either. I’m more of a Last Starfighter guy.

Easy mistake. They meant star gate

[-] calliope@retrolemmy.com 3 points 1 week ago

Are you telling me I should try to watch Star Gate too?

I saw the movie when I was little but I remember so little about it I thought the movie starred MacGuyver.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 week ago

Highly recommended. Quite campy, but fun

Well you're here so it's bound to happen
