I'm planning to re-post my more useful comments on my website, with enough context for them to be (hopefully) findable.

I actually really like the last one, with the vague globe and trees, and I think it would work for the page header and other places where you can see it clearly, but I think the two more cartoonish ones would stand up better to being shrunk down to the browser's tab bar. Of those two I like #3 better than #1.

I don't know, to some extent "bundles of feelings" is what people are.

Totally agree with the bit in your spoiler tag. After a few episodes of escalating DOOMSDAY PLOT, it started to feel like Trek again.

D

spoilerHonestly, I was disappointed that they turned defeating the Borg into something as simple as blowing up the battle droid control ship.

Depends, did you like TNG the show, or TNG the movies? If you liked the movies, you'll probably like Picard S3.

I pretty much agree. I liked season 4, but not quite as much as 3, largely for the first reason you bring up: EVERYTHING HAS TO BE ULTIMATE DOOM. That was the biggest problem I had with season 2 (the best episodes that season were the one-offs ) and one of the problems I had with Picard.

(I also had some major problems with the logic in Tarka's plan, partly because the event he was trying to recreate hadn't needed a giant singularity to begin with, and because he had the spore drive right there.)

I like Alpine Linux for my VPS servers, but that's because it's very lightweight, not because of ease of use.

For user friendliness I've heard really good things about Yunohost, which runs on Debian and lets you manage a lot of different software, Nextcloud included

That would probably be the best way to do it. Let the community mods agree which others they're "bundled" with, make it part of the metadata about each community, and then when someone subscribes to Bob1, their home server gets the list of related communities and adds them to Bob2 and Bob3 as well (but not Bobs 4 through 256, which aren't on Bob1's list)

Having a global space defeats the point of federation, though, because now everyone depends on a central authority.

Auto-combining would be a terrible idea, because you can't guarantee that everything with the same name is actually on the same topic, or has the same posting culture. One Doug might be about the cartoon character, the other might be about a real person named Doug.

I had to check....

O_o

Edit:

Yeah, it was real! Back in 2017.

Checking the certificate of DLL makes it harder to hack. Note that once users’ PCs are compromised, the hackers can do anything on the PCs. This solution only prevents from Notepad++ loading a CIA homemade DLL. It doesn’t prevent your original notepad++.exe from being replaced by modified notepad++.exe while the CIA is controlling your PC.
