    The older star trek also usually had one story in each episode, and just a little bit of an overarching plot, so much of the time of the episode was actually used to tell a story.

    Discovery adopted this soap-like storytelling, where there is one long story broken up into episodes. Each episode has something interesting at the start, then just a lot of filler, and when it finally starts to get interesting again the episode is over and they spoil half of the next episode with the “coming next” segment.

    So instead of making something people want to watch because its interesting, they just manipulate you to watch it because they string you along.

    Picard does the same, but at least they have some interesting content in the middle of an episode sometimes.





  • The disadvantage is higher weight for the same structural strength because the lower and upper tube are closer together (or combined into one tube) so the leverage is much less.

    I dont mind the “mens” frame, but if other people want to use a low step frame I am not going to call them sissies or something stupid like that.

    Oh yeah I totally needed to learn about what a writer might have thought 200 years ago while writing EVERY SINGLE PAGE of his book, when I already knew that I wanted to do something with technology.

    But we didnt have enough teachers for biology and physics and chemistry, so instead we got more literature.

    I wonder where I (and our whole society) would be now if schools werent meant for preparing kids to transition into work, but instead about getting the full potential out of every kid.

    Im German and I did learn English in school, but not really, because it was taught in a way that made me lose interest immediately.

    I actually learned English when I started to watch Minecraft Youtubers in English because they had some interesting contraptions in their videos or something like that (Its been a while, I dont know exactly why I started watching them)


  • In Germany its usually the fast cars that get pulled over for being too loud, my exhaust pipe on my old car was completely rusted through and I drove through a police check where they pull everyone over.

    They didnt say anything regarding the exhaust.

    I replaced it before the next inspection, because I would have never passed with it rusted through.
