Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

On the 81st anniversary of D-Day, here's your annual reminder that - two decades before he became Star Trek's Scotty - James Doohan was one of many Allied troops who risked their lives to invade Normandy. He was also wounded during the conflict.

Fun Fact: Ducks are often seen standing still in the rain. Most think it’s because their waterproof feathers keep them dry and that staying still helps conserve energy, but we have our own theory🦆🌧️🐥 #naturalhabitok #naturalhabitat #naturalhabitatshorts

Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979): V'Ger, art by Syd Mead “It was a retread of a TV segment that had been done before, [so] it wasn’t totally original. The idea was to create an organic texture as if it had grown over a mechanical frame. I looked at pictures of vines in Angkor Wat, where the..."

Just to get ahead of this rumor >> I've been told that some players are trying to spread FALSE information that we are ending our Console support. This is patently false, and we are even planning an update to Console platforms this week. Don't believe these rumors. Don't spread them. It's a lie.

Welp, I'm a long ways off from the meatier bits of the Endeavor store but it's a neat idea #StarTrekOnline can expand on in future. Plus the update gives some neat new stats to invest in and refresh my interest in the system.

Wanted to share some images of the Ranger remaster. I'm very pleased with how this turned out. The idea was to update the Ranger to be in line with the recent updates we made to the Constitution and Pioneer, but also mixing in more mid-century modern detailing. Model by @ramonmatas.bsky.social
