Fair enough. I was suggesting that Michael Okuda didn’t have utility in mind when he made it because that’s not what he was hired for.

Edit: In fact, I just read that he was under directive by Roddenberry to make something minimalist to suggest technological advancement. In that sense, it was prescient.

LCARS is very pretty, but it’s also really poor as a GUI. It was designed for form over function because of course it was.

I can’t help but notice that none of your posts have been removed. Maybe you want them to be?

There is a vast, vast gulf between blindly trusting the medical industry and accepting your personal conspiracy theory that doesn’t even make sense.

Sure. It was one of many examples I could have given, but that is one of the first ones kids are, and always should be, taught.

Cool. One person talks about a trans agenda in this thread, another person is making up silly medical conspiracies to dehumanize trans people as if they had no agency.

Teenagers don’t even go to doctors by themselves. They have to be accompanied by a parent.

I will always have your back. I will have the back of anyone judged by their inherent traits.

They don’t have a definition of “actual women,” because every one they can give has to come with massive “exception to the rule” issues.

You do know that downvoting doesn’t hide posts on Lemmy like it does on Reddit, right?

Because…?

Just don’t let it near Porthos.

“I’m not queerphobic, I’m just a plain and simple tailor…”

People, Americans anyway, are very good at doing what the TV tells them to do, which always makes me wonder how often doctors are plagued with patients saying, “Doctor, is Phabulux right for me?” Completely out of the blue and unrelated to whatever they’re at the doctor about.

I knew I was into girls when I was five. I didn’t know what heterosexuality (or any other sexuality) was, but I knew girls made me feel a way that boys didn’t. And when I did learn that there were boys who felt that way about boys like I did about girls, it was about my much older brother’s college roommate and eventual best friend, who is gay. I think maybe I was seven.

Somehow it didn’t destroy me.

You’re literally saying it on this forum.

No /s to the first part in my opinion. Trolls used to put effort into it. So few of them do these days.

I don’t know. They always put it in the pharmaceutical commercials that are only legal in the U.S. and New Zealand.

“Waiting” should have been left in the meme. It would be even funnier.

TIL saying that people on Reddit lie constantly is bigoted.

You seem to be the one trying to control what people think…
