  • Becky Chambers wrote 4 books that did a really good job of exploring different species getting by with their differences not just in culture, but also in things like how they speak (one species has 5 vocal chords, so you literally cannot speak their language) or ‘how does publich transit account for different butt shapes?’

    But on to your question on pet peeves:

    • throwing science-y words out there that make no sense is probably my biggest.
    • deus ex-machina - getting saved at the knick of time by something showing up without warning, but that’s just bad writing. I actually like how the Orville series removed transporters as a tech. It’s actually a bad plot device.
    • but yeah, like you said, things that are obvious but are removed from the show, like cameras






  • There’s an idea. I may play with it tomorrow.bill be back on the road, so I’m not keen on doing too much when I can’t fix it haha. But right now the router is DNS, so when I did traceroute there was only one stop. But it was the SSL termination that got me. I might be able to download the stream module for Nginx. I think if I wanted to be optimal I may have to totally restructure that part…

    Edit: thank you for the feedback, you’ve given me something to think about
