EmergMemeHologram, in StarTrek.website has updated to Lemmy version 0.19.3 (Clear cache/cookies in browser or remove+re-add account in app if experiencing login issues)

Why are lemmy updates so weird and disruptive?

I had to clear all my website data to log in via the website, which I’ve never ever seen any other website require.

The app situation was not much better, I needed to remove all my accounts on Boost and totally reinstall Mlem.

I have no idea, but in defense of the devs, there’s a reason they are calling it version 0.19 and not 0.5 or “1.0” There’s a lot to do, but look at projects like Mastodon a year ago vs today and they’ve made some dramatic improvements in terms of polish and usability.

Personally I think it’s a good thing Lemmy isn’t more popular right now, because there’s no way it could absorb Reddit levels of users in a healthy way.

RoundSparrow,

Same here. Had to purge everything, as all I would get was site errors.

zifnab25, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

They should have given it to Adam Friedland.

Sinistar,

I think that, with everybody else zigging, they should zag. Give it to Stavros and make it completely apolitical, just bring celebrities on to talk about their dicks.

ElderWendigo,

So, back to its Kilborn roots?

zifnab25,

How do we not have a Stavi emoji? God damn.

Well, anyway, I will see your Apolitical Stavros Dick Jokes With Celebrities show and raise you Bring Back Virgil.

huf,

nah. is bill o’reilly still alive? bring him back! papa bear hosting the daily show would be amazing. and bipartisan. what’s not to love here?

axont,

He’s been dead for a while

Edit: He’s alive? What

Cold_Brew_Enema, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

Fuck yeah, man. He was the best

rdyoung,

I’ve had major respect for him since he was on crossfire way back in the day. He took those guys to school and then beat them (verbally) like a rented mule. Crossfire went off the air shortly after his appearance. If you have never seen that episode do yourself a favor and go watch it.

And the painful thing is that all that dressdown, which should have ended careers, resulted in was to set Tucker Carlson on a path of becoming the face of the extreme right.

rdyoung,

I really hope he changes his mind and runs for office at some point. I’d vote for him for president.

And shit. I just realized where this was posted. This isn’t related to trek at all but why the fuck not.

Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is fun!

rdyoung,

I’m not really a bar kind of guy but if there was a quarks type place near me I might hang out there. There are a couple of “barcades” in my city and at least one of them has some punk and other rock shows on the regular, I keep meaning to take the time and check them out.

fsxylo,

His face looks like he forgot how to drool.

Cold_Brew_Enema,

Same. That clip is gold. Made tucker Carlson look like a total moron

fsxylo,

You don’t see him wearing a bowtie much anymore.

Jon Stewart is the Millennial Walter Cronkite.

givesomefucks,

I just wish he’d have gotten into politics.

But I cant blame him after the hit job Al Franken got for being a progressive outsider.

Semi-Hemi-Demigod,
@Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social avatar

I don't. His talents would have been wasted on them. He can do a lot more with his fame outside of the restrictive nonsense that politics brings.

breckenedge,

Al Franken had a conscience. When called on his mysoginy, he did the honorable thing and resigned. Sadly there are no more politicians like him.

givesomefucks,

You have zero idea what happened apparently…

qwertyqwertyqwerty, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

It’s kind of a shame that Taylor Tomlinson didn’t get a shot at this instead of…whatever the terrible show she just started is.

givesomefucks,

@midnight was amazing…

I tried her knockoff show “after midnight” and it was terrible.

UnderBoob,

Lmao at the people down voting. Her new show is garbage, who the hell green lit this piece of shit colostomy bag of random segments brought together.

halcyoncmdr, in NASA’s Artemis mission to take humans back to the Moon has been delayed until 2025

SpaceX will be colonizing Mars before Artemis launches at the rate of all these delays.

Corgana,
@Corgana@startrek.website avatar

Assuming they can keep Spaceship from exploding.

Not that these sorts of things should be rushed but there are only four surviving Apollo astronauts that walked on the surface, and it would be really special if they could all witness it again.

pineapplelover,

The last time we rushed things the Challenger exploded

Chriswild,

It’s not like SpaceX is making anything on time. They were supposed to be to Mars years ago and they can’t even get the starship to not explode.

Texas_Hangover,

That was damn near 40 years ago. You’d think they’d have figured some shit out by now.

MushuChupacabra,
@MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world avatar

That’s why we need visionaries such as yourself to cut the red tape and redundancies in Big Idea builds like a spaceship to bring humans to the moon. Or vessels for manned deep sea exploration.

FiskFisk33,

At least the Artemis astronauts won’t be going to their death

kerrigan778,

SpaceX being behind schedule is one of the major reasons for this delay…

halcyoncmdr,

No it isn’t. This delay is directly related to Artemis II, which uses an Orion capsule on SLS.

SpaceX is providing a Super Heavy for HLS as part of Artemis III.

kerrigan778,

Whoops, you’re right, I guess they’re both delayed.

freeman,

Nobody is sending people to Mars never mind colonizing it. Hopefully SpaceX/Starlink will fail before the make Earth’s orbit into a junkyard.

JokeDeity, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

Hell yes, I was never a fan of Trevor Noah personally.

PlainSimpleGarak, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

Watching The Colbert Report and Daily Show in the 2000s was something I always looked forward to each night. It’ll be nice to have Jon back, if only once a week.

Sinistar, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

There was a time when I would have praised Stewart for getting out while the getting was good (ignoring his awful podcast), but it looks like he wants to go the way of Stephen Colbert instead. RIP in peace you god damn liberal.

Yay

EmergMemeHologram, in StarTrek.website has updated to Lemmy version 0.19.3 (Clear cache/cookies in browser or remove+re-add account in app if experiencing login issues)

In Mlem you need to confirm your account before deleting it from the app, so I actually had to delete the whole app

Works now though.

ButtholeSpiders,
@ButtholeSpiders@startrek.website avatar

Glad to see this as I did all the above and it’s still not working in Mlem. I’ll give this a try though.

EmergMemeHologram,

Yeah try deleting the app, check your phones storage in settings > general > storage and search for Mlem. If you delete it it will remove all data from your phone, then you can reinstall and sign in again.

ButtholeSpiders,
@ButtholeSpiders@startrek.website avatar

Got home and giving it a shot now, I’ll write back for others seeing it too. 👍

Edit: You we’re 100% correct, deleting the app worked perfectly. Removing the account from Mlem did nothing and clearing browser cache did nothing. Weird bug for this version. 🤔

@OpenStars@startrek.website avatar

Fwiw:

Stewart, who spent 16 years at the show, the majority of them Emmy-winning, will be heavily involved as an executive producer on the other nights as well.

But yeah we’ll see - they are offering him a ton of work that just isn’t worth it, but if he is willing…

@voight@hexbear.net avatar

I doubt the “what if x on weed” guy has much to contribute in the way of material rather than star power but maybe idk

oocdc2, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

"The Problem with Jon Stewart" should have a high school or college course structured around it--it was a great series.

Corgana,
@Corgana@startrek.website avatar

Yes, a shame how it ended. I respect Jon for sticking to his principles.

HumanBehaviorByBjork, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer
@HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net avatar

you can’t even get him to host it daily? at this point just shutter the show. there’s plenty of people doing good lib/progressive political comedy (and way more doing it badly), but a legacy network like Comedy Central has nothing to offer them.

not_exactly, in Jon Stewart Returns to "The Daily Show" as Host and Executive Producer

This is awesome! Love to have Jon Stewart back, and I also love to see the correspondents take over the host role more often.
