Seriously, once the shields are down why aren't they just dematerializing parts of the enemy ship?

I wonder if there's a technical manual out there that tries to explain it. It seems like energy manipulation is something startrek tech excells at.

In practice, I agree with you. The transporter scans, disintegrates, and reconstructs the thing being transported. But when the thing being transported is reconstructed at a subatomic level it is effectively identical.

I can imagine the society we see in startrek having already worked through the moral and philosophical implications. I would have loved to see that addressed in an episode tho.

I always thought the least believable part of transporters was that they worked without a pad on both ends.

I'm finding oddities. My friend linked me https://lemmy.world/c/hfy. I search the url, I searched [email protected], and was finally only able to subscribe when I searched just "hfy" and it came up listed as "Humanity Fuck [email protected] - 4 subscribers", even though when you click through it's listed as [email protected].

Trying to sub to https://lemmyfly.org/c/aviation did the same thing to me. If I search "[email protected]" nothing comes up but if I search just "aviation" it appears (since there's multiple people on my server subscribed).

Anything lemmy.ml my server is already aware of is in perpertual "Pending Subscription".

And mostly out of curiosity I've been trying to subscribe to a kbin magazine from lemmy.one (since that's supposed to be possible) with 0 luck.

Feedly has fairly decent discovery features.

I've been using Feedly, ever since Google Reader was shut down. I've been happy with it and it has discovery features to find new feeds that interest you.

It's not intuitive for a reddit user combined with overloaded servers not being very responsive to search requests, makes for people thinking they need multiple accounts.

There are some communities I've been trying all weekend to get to from lemmy.one unsuccessfully.

I used BaconReader for a long time and then switched to Relay several years ago. I'm going to miss it dearly.

I've been using nearlyfreespeech.net for (looks) 14 years now. Their business aligns with my ideals and I've always been happy with their service.

I've been trying this all night and it's not populating. :(
