Oh man. As a little kid I burned a LOT of time on the old DOS trek.exe.
Also still fire up Armada from time to time. With all the new ship classes in Online, I’d love to see an Armada 3.

That’s so awesome. Takes me back. I might need to see if I still have that old Treo in a box somewhere…
Last I checked .04 per play.
[Weird little guy in the back of the room.] Hey guys! I still like Qobuz. They pay rights holders better than Apple Music, aren’t nearly as far behind in catalog size as they used to be, and almost the entire catalog is CD quality or higher. No fancy algorithms or podcasts. Just hi-res music. Just saying. It’s an option.
I’m back to a full computer again too, and if you don’t have a laptop handy, the new little mini PCs are surprisingly affordable too. If you don’t want to build a raspberry pi.
It’s supremely disappointing, looking up campaign contributions, how little money is required to influence our politicians.
And YouTube beat expectations on profits the quarter they raised prices again. The worst part of this is knowing YouTube is turning screws on the audience AND on advertisers. We know Google keeps more data on us than any other company, but they’re miserable at pairing relevant ads to my interests. So these brands advertising on YT aren’t reaching a potential customer, they’re only being used as a pain point to make free YT worse, and to neg viewers into buying premium. In a weird way, we might be saving brands from paying for useless ad clicks. Like, even looking at late stage capitalism and enshittification, this is totally bonkers.
A lot of folks are finding out that their bosses never REALLY cared that their job was done well, or even competently. If the company can save money with an AI that gets a bunch of stuff wrong, that’s “good enough”.
It’s kinda “pulpy” and you can nock it out over a weekend. I still think it’s fun 😊
It’s not “the best”, but Vendetta is a guilty pleasure for tying together one of my favorite TOS stories with my fave TNG villain.
We’re almost at that point. PS3 emulation on the Steam Deck is ALMOST there. Another generation of hardware improvements should push us over the edge. Then it would be up to Sony to decide “hey, we want to make money on the titles we can license and put back in an online store…”
Always worth mentioning the free version of davinci resolve. It’s feature complete for your described needs, doesn’t hassle with things like watermarks, and the tools are great if you ever need to step up to something a little more robust.
