Will this Lenovo Thinkpad (AMD) work well with linux, or should I go intel? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I've had a very good experience with a similarly-speced AMD E16 gen 1.

The only issue I'd warn you about is the Wi-Fi modem might be a Realtek on some models. Mine came with one, and while on recent kernels, it mostly worked well out of the box, it had one issue: something went weird with ACPI when I switched between certain networks, which caused the card to crash and completely disconnect to the system unless I rebooted. I was able to find a fix by changing some options with modprobe.d, which I detail here: https://startrek.website/post/14342770 . Since that, it's been an extremely smooth experience.

Same. I love my E16 Gen 1.

He promoted Harry Kim to Lieutenant Commander after he transferred from Voyager A. (According to an okudagram, he hit full Lt in PRO)

I mean, he did pretend to be a stereotype of his species as a favor to a friend, so….

Well, I got hit by a mink starship, captained by a silver guitar.

I’d be fired if that were my job…

Actually, Mirror Chakotay was depicted in Prodigy (along with mirror Janeway). He likes to torture people like any good Terrain boi.

What are you going to do unless they are? (Edit: I see someone already put that. Sorry. Federating from lemmy.world to my instance is very slow.)

Probably very dead, considering that Tuvixing is a biological process and Data isn't biological.

If we're just thinking personality combination, I'd think he would just be a milder, hyper-intelligent version of Worf in many ways, as I think Worf's thoughts would fill in a lot of Data's questions. I think this combined being would probably be a much better father to Alexander, though.

By Beta canon or otherwise, it's heavily implied he doesn't live that long in most timelines.

Oh, are we doing 90s music references now? in c/[email protected]

Excuse me. “Boss of Me” is early 2000’s music, thank you very much. 😑😂

Rest in peace. Isn’t he a time traveler, though? I thought Starfleet Intelligence would have resolved this by now.

TOTP 2FA Issues (startrek.website)
 

Salutations. After lurking around and reading posts for a few weeks, I have just created an account on this instance. Mostly, the experience has been good, but I am having one major issue: Shaka when the walls fell with two-factor authentication. When I press the button in my account settings, I receive the error couldnt_generate_totp. When looking in the Javascript console, I found the following occurred every time I pressed the button:

POST https://startrek.website/api/v3/user/totp/generate 400 (Bad Request)

I received a 404 when navigating to that URL. Is the API for generating TOTP keys not set up on this server? I am concerned about any count where I am unable to properly set up two-factor authentication, and I would be pleased if this difficulty could be rectified. Anyhow, glory to the houses of all involved in maintaining this server as an alternative bastion of Star Trek discussion on the internet.

Application of the (Temporal) Prime Directive Across Alternate Timelines (startrek.website)
 

Let's imagine that there is an Earth from an alternate timeline where the planet received alien interference in the late 20th century that makes humanity certain of alien life and warp drive (note: not warp-capable), with the early 21st century on technological par with the prime timeline's 21st century. In this early 21st century, a person accidentally make both a universe and temporal crossing into Earth in the prime timeline and the late 24th century.

Starfleet quickly locates this highly confused person. How would Starfleet handle the situation while abiding by the (Temporal) Prime Directive?

Personally, I would think given the exceptional circumstances, that Starfleet might given the person limited mobility on Earth and only Earth, and eventually allow them to live permanently in the prime timeline if they have exhausted the list of possible ways to return the person to their timeline. This is especially considering that the alternate Earth has already been interfered with, and Starfleet has no way to know the natural development of neither the alternate timeline nor its native earth.
