        Depends. Is there enough coffee to accomplish the latter, or must the second be carried out to fulfill the first?

          Twovix (dammit! now I’m stuck with that spelling!?) isn’t even the only pair of beings that she murdered this week:-).

          I think you announce your intentions before the coffee, then you get the coffee so you can enjoy it more.

          It doesn’t hurt watching him run around the ship pleading for help, and while making eye contact nobody steps forward to really break his spirit.

            At a technical level it is totally possible. You just make the URL resolve to a different image each time.

            I’m not sure it would be appreciated by the mods

                It should as Lemmy will pull any image that is linked in the markdown.

                  But doesn’t the instance it is delicious (edit: FUCK AUTOCORRECT!) delivered to do that, and then if the image changes later, it wouldn’t update? And then I thought further that people from other instances likewise pull from the host instance, rather than the original source.

                  Except maybe Lemmy.world, if the image caching was added in a more recent update, which I thought was the case?

                  Anyway, I’m not saying that any of this happens, only that I thought it might.

    I was actually just thinking that if this episode were made today it would probably be doomscrolling social media instead of a game.

    I think it would have a better narrative flow if you were to swap panels two and three here.

      I struggled with that

      Riker gets the ball into the cup then makes both faces, so as a purist I went with the original narrative.

      The swap would be better story telling here though.

      Am I allowed to blame Rick Berman?

        In all instances, yes. I can see the argument from a visual perspective, but you’re right about the actual order.

    I feel like a Terran whenever I see light themed websites nowadays.
