Rofl yeah right, like your face didn’t light up the first time you heard the Halo theme.

Yup, I remember that interview. It was about pirates providing translations for the pirated games, that weren’t included by their creators.

Fair pricing is also part of that. Like when Netflix first came out, even with its pretty restricted catalogue, it was a good deal at the time.

Beautiful. Well done

Very similar story here. There really is nothing like a drawer full of good quality, fresh, springy socks.

Great plain language breakdown for the uninitiated. Doesn’t disregard socialism as a solution to the problems outlined, but that’s a whole other discussion. Frankly at this point in history, it’s largely academic IMHO.

a lot of the human populace is becoming useless.

Emphasis mine. This would be my only edit. Useless only as a consumer and worker. Still imbued with dignity and capable of generating meaning and experiencing a worthy life.

Maybe just spread it around a little bit. Managers do do some work…

That is legitimately one school of thought, as I’ve heard it, yes. I’m not so sure about it myself, but we’ve definitely got capitalism – no one’s going to argue that – so we may as well use it to the advantage of human flourishing.

Now it’s my bad. I didn’t mean to imply anything about your intent. Your goodwill is pretty clear from everything else you wrote. Just wanted to add a little asterisk there, for other readers.

They do fit well together, but they are very much not the same show. They are like two differently shaped puzzle pieces.

Closer to the end TNG did get more character development, though. I wonder how much of that is thanks to Babylon 5. I remember the end of TNG, beginning of DS9, and B5 all being very close together.

Oh my god that is the perfect explanation of the (often unintentionally / incidentally) bigoted opinions I hear around.

I can’t imagine what it’s like to love a trek that kind of sucking in the early seasons >_>

Later X-Files kind of felt like what Lost would later become. Engaging, yes, but kind of an amorphous mess.
