is there a web version of that kind of poo poo too for those of us with puny gpus? trying poo poo like "the tallest penguin in Dresden", "extremely unsettling mustaches", "celebrities with too many teeth", "girls that like fluoride way too much", "sludgy aerosols", "caterpillars that refuse to grow", "military surplus glow in the dark garden hose", etc. might be fun.

He sat in the glow of his monitor, hopeful. But the response terrified him beyond all imagining. The user base was smaller than he'd expected, the comments were all the same and horrible, and the user rating was an abysmal zero.

He quickly sent out the next one, a short, whimsical series of tweets that went through the different phases of the moon. He was so positive about it, so proud of his creation, that he had no idea how much it was going to hurt.

He'd created it to help people, to make them smile, to help them forget their troubles. Instead, he found out that he was a pathetic, bitter old man, who didn't even have the respect

Deep Space Nine has the worst example of the "filler episode" that I've ever seen. The entire episode is just one long, pointless story about Odo killing a bunch of aliens, and it's all just horrible, and makes no sense at all.

Plus, Odo was on the planet to interrogate a bunch of the aliens, which is the whole point of the episode, but there was no point in having him go back to the station after he killed them all. He could have just interrogated them all at the station.

I don't think the episode was that bad. It was just badly edited.

quote:

Deep Space Nine is the worst Star Trek series.

In the Star Trek franchise, Deep Space Nine is the weakest, most uninteresting and poorly written. It has the lowest number of episodes, the least memorable plots, the fewest memorable characters and the worst story arcs.

It's also the only series where the main characters all seem to be struggling with depression.

The only exception is Avery Brooks who is a really good actor, but he's not the main character.

For the record, I would rank the following episodes as the worst:

"Ensign Ro"

"Threshold"

quote:

Deep Space Nine was the worst series in the history of Star Trek.

It was the last great Trek series, but it was also the first. It was the series where Trek became about political and social commentary, as opposed to the more straightforward adventures of the original series. It was the series where Trek became about a society on the brink of collapse. It was the series where Trek became more about pessimism and melodrama than optimism and hope.

It was the series where Trek began to lose its way, but it was also the series that brought Trek back to its roots.

someone got dalle to generate images of "strong bad checking his email"

the homestar runner gang spotted it and decided to animate the results and provide strong bads voice

that's neat but the input and result (and a ton of other dall-e stuff) show a worrying level of sophistication that makes me fear the future
