That one actually isnāt a mistake. His last name was spelled āRykerā when they were developing the show.
William Thomas "Will" Riker was a 24th century male Human Starfleet officer. Riker served as first officer for Captain Jean-Luc Picard for 15 years on the USS Enterprise-D and USS Enterprise-E before finally accepting his own command with the USS Titan. (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint"; Star Trek: First Contact; Star Trek Nemesis) As captain of the Titan, Riker and his wife Deanna Troi had two children: a son named after Riker's ancestor Thaddius, and a daughter named after Troi's deceased sister K
Zndl points out correctly that the trick is to not update the watch past watchOS 8. I would hope the watch series 7 would still ship with watchOS 8.
The most recent watch that maxes out at watchOS 8 is the series 3 but that one is pretty underpowered, so Iād have a hard time recommending it.
I totally understand your desire for a community that allows you to discuss classic trek without worrying that your enjoyment of new series will be lessened if you read spoilers. Reddit has a big enough user base to have separate subreddits for each series. Lemmyās not there yet.
think there is a way to make any forum spoiler-avoidable, especially where very current episodes are at play. Sensible titles (e.g., including the episode discussed) would go a long way toward helping with this.
Lemmy also ostensibly supports :::spoiler tags::: (though I havenāt tried them and I donāt know if all clients respect them). Getting people to use those where appropriate might also help.
I look forward to seeing how this and other trek communities develop, and I hope that your experience improves.
Iām with you on your analysis. It wasnāt mindblowingly good, but it was certainly good enough to not feel like a band past its prime trying to cash in on one last payday. I do think that Billy West (Fry)ās voice has aged some as well, but I got used to it after a minute or two and it was fine.
I think when youāre coming back from cancelationā¦AGAIN, and especially after so long, itās not like a pilot, but it requires more exposition than a regular season opener. So it was good enough on its own merit, and Iām grading it on a curve as itās the first episode in a decade and has to do a bit more storytelling drudgery than your average show.
Because Iām in the Mac ecosystem, I use NetNewsWire on my devices and sync with iCloud. Before that, I used Feedly to sync. Feedly also has a web interface. Iām not sure what the best RSS apps are for Windows and Android are, though.
Hereās an article Wired did on feed readers last year. Many of them are subscription services, but some are freemium. (NetNewsWire is totally free).
