Annoyed O’BrienHOW THE BLOODY HELL DOES THIS THING WORK
GamerTrem@annoyedobrien I'm pushing buttons! I only wish I knew what they did... Uhh Chief, I seem to have teleported the contents of Cargo Bay 2 into the wormhole...
Puttering by foul tempestsHeya Chief! Like this!
Off Fleek Geek@annoyedobrien It seems to run on some form of electricity.
Ferengi Rules Of Acquisition@annoyedobrien good to see you Chief. For 3 strips of latinum I can give you the instruction manual.
@annoyedobrien but the basics: The mastodon mobile app isn’t good. There are several other options that work better (tusky on android and Metatext on iOS, among others).
Boost, boost, boost. You are the algorithm. Boost things you like so others see it.
I prefer looking at the local and federated time lines. Local shows just what people in your instance are posting. Federated shows anyone people in your instance follow
@annoyedobrien for some reason the actual mastodon app doesn’t show these timelines which is why I prefer Metatext.
Use Content Warnings liberally.
That’ll be 8 strips of latinum
@FerengiRules that is supposed to be PUBLIC USE
DJTobyGaming@annoyedobrien @FerengiRules Chief I saw him replicating a bunch of different manuals earlier I would check the replicator before purchasing
Ryan Noakes 🇨🇦@annoyedobrien um, you... do stuff? With like, buttons...
Uh... Chief, I think upper pylon 2 just vented all the air into space... I'm gonna stop touching things.

@ryan_noakes STAND AWAY FROM THE BUTTONS
@annoyedobrien aye aye Chief. I'll go see if Garak needs help sewing some... zippers.
Coach Gowron@annoyedobrien I'll have Brad explain it to you the way he explained it to me: via a raucous puppet show.
@coachgowron WHY ARE ALL THE PUPPETS ON FIRE
@annoyedobrien The flaming ones represent Twitter, you see...
@coachgowron huh. Actually that makes sense.
@annoyedobrien @coachgowron I’m not sure but the Rum is missing too
Computer@annoyedobrien ERROR: INTERFACE INCOMPATIBLE. PROCESSING NEW INPUT. PLEASE STAND BY...
Naturally HeathirDon't ask me I'm flailing over here!!!
Daniel Tien@annoyedobrien You just made it work.
@annoyedobrien It’s probably running on Cardassian technology. Missing a few self-sealing stem bolts though.
✨ Lieutenant Commander Data ✨@annoyedobrien “ Unsure sir. “
Ritchie 
Anna Phylaxis@annoyedobrien It works better than that cardie computer on DS9
@annoyedobrien better get to that OS rewrite you always talked about back in the day to get rid of all this Cardassian BS
Mary⚫️⚪️🟣🖖@annoyedobrien chief!! You made it! So glad to see you!
I'm pretty sure you might need to kick a few consoles but more importantly....the replicators are only making blueberry scones & you know how Worf feels about blueberries.
@PainedInsomniac Yes he prefers blackberries
Rick Schmitz@annoyedobrien You got me, Miles.
elsdrai@annoyedobrien still figuring that out myself.
Chris Godwin@annoyedobrien Just think of it like starfleets communications protocol. There's loads of ships, all part of the same federation using the same subspace communicators.
Melvin S. Marsh (WA4JJQ)@annoyedobrien No one really knows chief.
Zah@annoyedobrien No idea. But hopefully it's easier to figure out than a Cardassian replicator.
Rocky 💜💙Have you tried turning it on and off? 😂
Moridin@annoyedobrien I believe you just keep yelling at it for tea, earl grey, hot, and then julian throws a dart at you from inside the replicator... it admittedly needs some work, but at least it isn't run by Gul Dukat!
@moridin AHHG MY SHOULDER
@annoyedobrien man, strangely enough, I tore something in my left shoulder shortly after this reply 😂
@annoyedobrien did you try turning it off and back on again chief
@Djtobygaming I can’t find the damn power button
Otto
Kathryn Isolde Janeway@annoyedobrien Still trying to figure it out myself.
Jenn Dolari@annoyedobrien - Fairly easy, sir.
So, first, you find the server you like, and get an account. Once you do that, you'll need to find federated friends. You can do that by putting names in the search field, shunting it off through the ODN conduits, rerouting through the framistat generators, making sure to use the interplexing compensator to adjust for vraibles in the data stream. Once you do that, it's a simple matter of using phase shifting to move the information from the positive to...
@dolari ::furiously taking notes::
Ann-Mi@annoyedobrien Welcome aboard, Chief!
You'll get the hang of it! The communication badge just looks a bit different.

Birbs in Space@annoyedobrien only if you keep fixing it
Jolly St. Nick Scutari 🟡🟡@annoyedobrien Did you try reversing the polarity, Chief?
@NickScutari that’s the FIRST thing I did
