Have you ever considered that the Prime Directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical, and perhaps morally indefensible?

7·4 days agoIt doesn’t really make a lot of sense to run multiple streamers. It’s kind of wild that Disney is still keeping Hulu alive, despite a heavy degree of integration.
It’s a pretty big project, though - could take years.

Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•The one episode you'd share to get someone into Star TrekEnglish
6·4 days agoVoyager: “Nemesis”
This is actually a very interesting pick - I tend to think it’s a mistake to try to start someone on an episode that would be considered among “the best,” since after that there’s nowhere to go but down. “Nemesis” fits the bill of something that’s reasonably interesting without being spectacular.
I’m very bad at answering the core question, but I think the beauty of the franchise is that it has a little of everything to offer, and you can tailor recommendations to the person’s tastes.
Do they like medical dramas? Procedural mysteries? Musicals? Gritty war stories? There’s something in there for everyone.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Alberta Separatists Offered U.S. Access to Water and Oil Royalties for Independence Help, Globe Reports | Culture AlbertaEnglish
1·6 days agoYeah, I omitted High Treason, because it obviously doesn’t apply.
And the laws sound treason are pretty much entirely focused on facilitating a foreign military invasion. Based on what we know so far, I don’t think there’s anything there that would hold up in court.
But like I said the last time this came up, by all means, investigate away. I just think it’s far more likely that they’d get nailed on lesser charges like foreign interference-related stuff (but I don’t really know anything about our foreign interference laws, save that they seem to be woefully inadequate).

5·6 days agofound that it did
How so?
Every one commits treason who, in Canada,
- uses force or violence for the purpose of overthrowing the government of Canada or a province;
Not so far…
- without lawful authority, communicates or makes available to an agent of a state other than Canada, military or scientific information or any sketch, plan, model, article, note or document of a military or scientific character that he knows or ought to know may be used by that state for a purpose prejudicial to the safety or defence of Canada;
Maybe? I don’t see military or scientific secrets being described here, but I’m open to the possiblity if there’s any evidence.
- conspires with any person to commit high treason or to do anything mentioned in paragraph (a);
Again, not so far.
- forms an intention to do anything that is high treason or that is mentioned in paragraph (a) and manifests that intention by an overt act; or
Again, not so far.
- conspires with any person to do anything mentioned in paragraph (b) or forms an intention to do anything mentioned in paragraph (b) and manifests that intention by an overt act.
And that’s another maybe, but I don’t see anything in this article that screams “military or scientific secrets.”

Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Rod Roddenberry On How New Paramount Wants “To Do Right By Star Trek”English
6·6 days agoNo matter how much people may want to portray this most recent era as a failure, I don’t think there’s any sort of data that would back that up (but if there is, I’d love to see it). This is from early last year:
Parrot Analytics Streaming Economics System shows how the long running Star Trek franchise has been a reliable money maker not only for Paramount+ but other streaming platforms around the globe. From Q1 2020 until Q3 2024 our model estimates that shows and movies in the Star Trek franchise have generated over $2.6B in subscriber revenue for major streamers globally.

You could sort of, probably make the case that the landscape has changed since then - the fact that there are no live-action series in development would certainly support that, though I don’t think it really proves anything other than that the company is in shambles right now.
But the idea that the franchise has somehow been killed in the streaming era? It’s essentially fantasy.

It’s a neat episode.
I can get behind this sentiment. I don’t think it’s outstanding, but it’s unique and does some things we don’t typically see.
