On the first viewing of "Unnatural Selection" (TNG 2.7), are we supposed to believe Dr. Pulaski can really die?
One of the biggest difficulties of most episodic dramas, including the various Star Trek series, is that putting main characters in danger is seldom believable. It’s such a common syndrome that it’s even a pop culture trope: plot armor. Watching the early second-season episode “Unnatural Selection,” in which Dr. Pulaski...

What is the privacy/security concern with canvas in web browsers?
I have installed librawolf and I see that canvas access is disabled by default in all webpages so I started activating them when they bother me (whatsapp, youtube, element.io etc.). But then I figure that it is disabled for a reason. What should I pay attention to?
Does anyone know if or where I can find a downloadable, locally hostable version of the Microsoft Sam TTS?
All versions of the TTS I see on the web are hosted on sites that connect to their own external API (I think?) to generate the voice lines, i.e. this site hosted on tetyys.com...

Good software for batch audio file conversion.
I’ve been using JDownloads2 to download from YouTube Music. But my car stereo only supports mp3 so have to convert the files. Any suggestion for good audio converter that works in large batches? I’ve looked, and maybe my google fu sucks, but can’t see a way to force JDownloads to do MP3, it’s doing m4a.

How do I go about writing aquatic humans as an allegory (or w/e the right word is) for Indigenous people?
I’m considering writing the merfolk in my story as a sort of metaphor for indigenous peoples, as well as other sea-dwelling or otherwise aquatic humans. Is this inherently problematic in and of itself, or is there a way to write this that works and is respectful to actual indigenous folks? If it’s inherently disrespectful, I...
What movies, books or tv shows are meant to spoof/parody a particular genre while actually being a great example of the genre?
The 3 that come to mind for me are Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The Princess Bride. All three are poking fun at their respective genres but also are great examples of the genre. I’m curious if Lemmy has other such examples.
Is it possible to have Wikipedia sources in a cycle?
I’m not very familiar with how Wikipedia vets the sources in the references/external links. I was wondering whether there are manual or automated checks for cyclic sources, for example a Wikipedia page cites a source for something, but such source after a few rounds of citing would go back to the same Wikipedia page....
