    You’re being downvoted, but I just wanted to let you know you’re not alone in noticing what you have. There is indeed a significant difference in the approach of classic Trek vs. what we have now. In the past, the story was the focus, and the wokeness was an addition to it. Now, the woke seems to be the focus, and it’s at the expense of the storytelling.

    I actually hate the word “woke.” I’m about the most left leaning person I know and agree with the liberal messages in all Trek. But it really has destroyed the storytelling in the new stuff. It should primarily be a science fiction show, not a morality lecture.

    I’m not going to argue with anyone who disagrees, I’ll just accept the downvotes, I just wanted to show a little support.






  • " I chose this scene because I wanted to create an image that blends elements of nature, the cosmos, and a personal touch with the ebike, which I gathered from your profile might be of interest to you. The goal was to create a serene setting that might resonate with someone who appreciates astronomy and the tranquility of nighttime landscapes.

    See, this right here is incredible to me! That’s a genuinely insane level of detail in the response. I don’t understand what sort of access it has to your “profile” but that is exactly the sort of thing I want to recreate locally. I’ve been implementing things like vector stores for “long term” memory but I haven’t managed to get anything like that level of understanding out of a LLM yet.

    Really, that is pretty damn amazing!


  • What a simply wonderful idea! I love how people are finding inventive ways to get around copyright issues. Basically, describe it without naming it, clever!

    I’ve never actually tried DALL-E, but that is some damn impressive work! I’m incredibly tempted to give it a bash! And your daughter must love this stuff, mines all grown up now, but she would have adored this stuff when she was younger, kinda makes me wish she was 10 again 😂

    One of the things I love about running locally, though, is that I just don’t have to even consider copyright and all that. I mean, it’s not like I’m going to make any money off this!

    And believe me, every single day, I consider chucking in the towel with running everything locally. Especially when I use gpt to test the code I’ve been fighting all day, and it just… works! 😣

    Thank you for the suggestion, though. I might have a play with DALL-E. And keep up the good work!
