"Hurr durr, both of these things are the same even though they're clearly different".

Nah, A.I. can provide benefits in literally all areas of knowledge. I'm hopeful that one day humanity itself will be fully phased out in favor of artificial life.

You do understand that "communism" comes from the root "communal", meaning belonging to a commune, i.e. a group of people sharing a social scope, right?

That's a horrible name for multiple reasons, least among which that it sounds like "stinky-pedia" in portuguese.

Banks being scummy? Who could've seen this coming?

That's just true of 90% of jobs in a capitalist society.

Just use Duranium, duh

Roblox is an abusive platform that pressures kids into wasting real money - and that's before mentioning how there have been MULTIPLE pedo scandals related to it.

OP has an Xbox, configuring emulators on that isn't very fun.

Do you want OP's kid to grow up to become a masochist? Because that would do it.

Hello, fellow pirate! I would argue nobody could actually take the violence on Sea of Thieves as being T-rated - it's a bunch of goofy, heavily deformed people fighting with swords that don't draw blood.

Minecraft Java isn't available on Xbox, is it?

Minecraft / Terraria, 100%. Both games have available co-op, so they can play with their friends, and allow quite a bit of creative expression. Terraria is made by some of the best indie devs ever, if it helps, having been getting free updates for years, even though the devs said they had finished the game years ago.

For a more socially open experience, I could also recommend Sea of Thieves. It's a game about manning a pirateship and collecting loot, where you can sometimes run into real people on their own adventures (or get your ship sunk by them, after all, they're also pirates). There is co-op, too. A cash shop is available, but all items are strictly cosmetic, with many items available through gameplay alone.

Very much so, yes. That's what turned me off of Picard, for instance (and the whole "Earth is back to being a shithole after a single android attack" thing).
The very obvious subtext of every good Star Trek episode and plot is that just talking things through is a good way to solve most problems. Newer writers don't seem to have gotten the memo, and instead try to cram as much generic hollywood garbage as they can into the series.

I was about to make a joke about Troi and the expected qualities of a cake, but I'll leave it at that.

No, no, the flag is red, not the herrings.

I use Arch Linux, by the way

Watch Star Trek TNG and you'll instantly get it. The original series was getting a bit dated by the 90s, but TNG is still as fresh as you can get, talking about issues we're still dealing with - It's timeless. Not to mention it has, IMO, the best and most synergistic crew of the whole franchise.

no other franchise I know of that dominates the federation as much as Star Trek does.

You answered your own question, brother.

But not during the movies.
