Thank you for the update! Our trusty bot over at c/greatestgen had no issues and is still posting the most embarrassing episodes (so all of them) of The Greatest Generation and The Greatest Trek.
There's a video of this episode up on YouTube (if you're not satisfied with only the dulcet tone of Adams, Bens, and Adams voices): https://youtu.be/E95tg4XyG8g
I‘m looking forward to see the Voyager documentary. I think it’s supposed to come out this year.
I'm not much of a Node.js programmer so I didn't use the project (although its probably great!). I'll DM you my address :)
I wrote a first, minimal version of the script: https://github.com/Kudusch/rss-to-lemmy
The Lemmy API is a bit weird. It seems like there is no way to authenticate to the server but with the actual username and password of the posting account.
Also, it looks like the way the authentication is handled changes for the next version of Lemmy (0.19.x) and startrek.website hasn't updated yet! Could make sense to wait until we're up to the latest version so the script doesn't break immediately :) I wrote the script with the latest Lemmy version in mind, because I tested it on another instance that is already up to date.
Here's how the posts would look like: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/7986661
An excellent 250th episode.
Wonderful idea! Should we do posts for new of episodes? I could probably automate that from the pods rss feed, if we‘d want something like that :)
Corrected, thanks!
As someone whose dissertation is on conspiracy theories, I gotta say: The writers did a great job at essentially summarizing the current literature:
“I thought you were just a paranoid anxiety made up by people who needed an imagined enemy to simulate order on unrelated disasters so life doesn't feel so random and chaotic!” (Boimler, S04E08)
That mind control/subliminal messages in advertising joke with the paramount logo made me laugh.
Character’s name is Ensign Travis Mayweather and he’s played by Anthony Montgomery :)
Everybody’s favorite space boomer!
Gotta say that I agree with Adam on his disappointment with the height of the Hirogens. I had the same issue with the Cardassians.
Give us a tall alien species! We got the Bynars on the other end of the spectrum; where are the tall kings and queens?
