Obviously Avrey Brooks is an excellent choice but I think Todd could have absolutely pulled it off. Granted, it would have probably been a very different character!

I like that snap support is included. You can't easily add it to immutable distros and there is still some software out there only easily available via snaps.

I am not an expert but I don't think Snap support can be added to an immutable distro after installation, meaning there is going to be some software that simply cannot be easily installed. Snap support is basically a legacy support feature at this point but I think it's nice to cover their bases if they are trying to make something for widespread adoption.

I wonder what the differences will be!

I think you're exactly right, honestly I think this has potential to be huge. Whether we like it or not, in order for a lot of mid-level savvy users to feel comfortable switching over they need a "default" option (like joining mastodon.social) to get their feet wet. A distro specifically built for KDE I think could appeal to a lot of people.

EDIT: Also for the people buying laptops in businesses and schools obv

I thought this was going to be a "rest of the owl" situation but I was happily mistaken.

Honestly sometimes it feels like all of LDS targets me specifically.

How does it work self hosting? Is it querying other search engines or just maintaining a database on your server?

Personally I just like the Borg's plan for the economy. Sure, post-scarcity is nice, but what about post post?

 

"Sure, The Borg have been a bit of a problem. Their tendency toward mass assimilation and the stripping of individuality and personal freedom doesn’t exactly jibe with our idea of what makes a great leader. But let’s be honest. Kathryn Janeway hasn’t been perfect."

Easily her most famous role, if not the most famous role of any actor, ever.

This could easily be done with AI. For a week or so, that is.

 
 
 

Until Disco S3, "Living witness" was the furthest future we had seen in Star Trek. But Academy takes place after Discovery. At the end of "Living Witness" the Doctor is described as heading towards Earth.

Assuming the burn didn't get them, it's entirely possible two EMHs are surviving in Discovery's time. I think it would be a fun twist if it wasn't the EMH we expect!

 
 

This was mentioned elsewhere but I thought it was cool enough to deserve it's own post. The artist is Dusty Abell and they are selling copies on their website here: https://www.dustyabell.com/products/star-trek-doctor-who-friendship-is-universal-print
