Remember, when you buy blurays and DVDs, they stay on your shelf even when corporations decide they want to change things

Oh, it's not that I don't have DVDs and blu rays. But my tablet doesn't have an optical drive (and I tend to watch some trek doing chores) and it's actually kind of convenient to not have to track the episodes that I already watched.

I'll second setting up a jellyfin server. I stream from mine to my tablet and it Just Works

The high seas still exist. As much as the corpos try to squash it, I can still sing shanties all day.

Not my limited edition borg cube VOY, bastards keep trying to thieve it

In times like these I like to think on a quote by one of my favorite orion pirates, Osyraa.

Star trek series are no longer available on netflix

Because some rich person had a deal with another rich person, neither of whom had anything to do with producing said series made before streaming was a thing.

They haven't been for a while, have they? I thought CBS moved everything to their streaming service after Discovery's Season 2.

I guess it depends on the country. In Italy, TOS to ENT have been on netflix until the 8th of Jan

That's one cancelled subscription for me. And a box set of DvDs bought. The sub was already barely worth it since all I used it for was to occasionally watch an episode of voyager. To the point where the only selling point was the convenience. At the rate that I watched, buying the DvD box sets is actually cheaper. And I don't need to constantly figure out which service has it now either. Their loss.

I'll never hear Janeway say "Vojajer" (vocacer?) in the spanish dub again

Don't your DVDs have several audio channels?

"Opening Neelix tonight" sounds sounds like something the Doctor would say and do after his ethical subroutines got disabled again.

Local air tv guaranteed plays tos through enterprise. Probably late at night, but it’s pretty easy to capture and preserve.

Hum... All of Star Trek is gone?

I can't find any, but that doesn't say a lot.

Hum... All of Star Trek is gone?

Well, at least from Netflix.

Well, that's too bad. I was just wondering if I should start the weekend watching some, and now I'll have to watch my offline "backups".

Lol "my list" now just returns an empty page. Guess that's one less service to pay for.

Is this from an actual NuTrek series? The ships exploding, I mean.

Because, um... It looks bad. It looks like a standard VFX explosion with no thought about how it'd look like in space.

No,the explosions in TNG or the movies weren't realistic either, but some thought was put into them at least. For instance; they'd explode an actual model, and film it from the bottom with a slow motion camera. Why from the bottom? Because of gravity. You can't have falling particles in a space explosion, so filming the explosions from the bottom made it look like the bits and particles were rapidly spreading out.

It's hard to binge several seasons in one night. Ended up with the Voyager episode "Fury" being my last one.
