Picked up the Bluray series off eBay. Physical media seems like the way to go, to really own anything

Same. Bummed that we’ll probably never get remasters of DS9 and Voyager.

There is a nice DS9 upscaling project that is very good (not as good as a proper remaster, but still impressive).

https://ds9redefined.wordpress.com/videos/

They only provide download instructions (sftp) via discord, unfortunately. (https://discord.gg/qTgXcG9T). It’s very large (300+ GB for the series).

They are working on Voyager now.

Iirc, the studio(s) likely wouldn’t be able to do much better for Voyager as they didn’t record Voyager onto film like the others. They cheaped out and recorded direct to VHS

That or sailing the digital sea, which ig you could consider a bunch of DRM-free files on a drive you own to still be “physical media”

The federation is like living at your parent’s house. Things are free under their roof, but if you want to drink with Quark, you’re going to have to trade your star fleet allowance for latinum.

I like to imagine they’ve all got unlimited credit lines but they play along with the Ferengi to respect their culture. Their system might fall apart if they are forced to acknowledge it only works with artificial scarcity.

Definitely no social commentary there btw.

You mean those wealth hoarding lizards that fire people and don’t pay taxes?

Isn’t that basically the same thing?

Have it included with Walmart+ and so far everything I’ve watched has had one 30 second ad at the beginning and I can return anytime without having to watch anymore.

Create post

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’ and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.
