I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve been experiencing quite a bit of sluggishness and errors (failure to post, failure to mark as read, failure to fetch comments, etc), my feed seems to get stuck for long periods of time without updating, and any time I try to open my profile view, it can take a full minute (it might be...
Whenever I see a run of spam posts on the fediverse, I’ve taken to looking at the usernames behind them. Nine times out of ten, they turn out to be from kbin instances. Here’s a recent example:...
I recently finished Enterprise season 3, and oh gods that was a slog at the end. Like 5 plot-heavy episodes in a row! No fun, no whimsy, no exploration. It’s the least star-trekky I have ever seen Star Trek. So I finished it, and thought “can we see some strange new worlds now?” And then Archer was taken prisoner by nazis...

I know that the utterly incomparable Bruce Horak came back not as Hemmer but as the Klingon for this episode. However the singer, was that Bruce too? If so then I’m genuinely shocked. I thought for sure that it was Weird Al. It sounds almost identical. If it’s not Weird Al himself then it’s a pitch perfect double....
I’m developing a fediverse application and am torn between using lemmy and kbin for the backend. Private messages are a very important feature that I want to include. Does Kbin support private messaging users the way lemmy does?
Hey there,...
I’ve been looking around for some more communities to subscribe to and thought I should ask you guys
I’m hoping this doesn’t start a fight, I’m just curious what the political orientation is of this community. I grew up in a liberal (in the American sense) family, and I identify now as a socialist, though a lot of the liberalism I grew up in has stuck with me, like interest in LGBTQ and women’s rights, environmentalism,...

Seeing lots of spam and ads for illegal drugs, etc. Are the moderators on vacay?
Both !infosec and !science are being spammed constantly with opioid ads and other non-sense....
This week i’ve decided to rewatch the avatar films on blu ray. I picked up the special editions with the 3 hours worth of extras for each film. I’ve rewatched the first film and some extras. I’m a casual fan at best and by no means a movie critic, but here arey impressions....
I have the series on DVD but I’ve never seriously cracked it, only seen a few episodes. Was wondering what people here think, is it as good as the internet often says it is? I know it was an inspiration for one of my favorite franchises (Mass Effect) and The Orville had a cute reference to it by making its main actor the...
So, I am confused by some things with this website, and as this is a “general” community, I thought Quarks would be the most likely to be the place to post it…...
So, I have some questions about formatting on this site:...
So, I have some ideas for discussing Star Trek Tech (Both ideas for how to do some IRL, and some ideas for tech based on other star-trek tech, not necessarily IRL, but “IRL” if StarTrek was 100% accurate)...
Kind of a testing post
This is a community for WhatCo.me kbin
Macbeth
No mods listed and the place is getting overrun by drug spam. Is there anyone there?
Mine are The UrQuan Masters and Mass Effect (the original trilogy anyway) Havent played Starfield yet so wondering if that will measure up....
A user from this instance (@aelo0y) seems to be a SPAM clone for posting links to 923000.blogspot.com...
Thank you for everyone’s patience while we were migrating hosts . I know I said “a few hours” and it turned out to be over a day. Clearly I need to work on my Scotty estimates. During transport the team found a backlog of extremely low effort memes caught in the pattern buffer and we had to go through the copies one by one...
Just looking for some recommendations because I’m in a sci fi mood. And btw, my favorite sci fi film is Planet of the Apes (original).
