Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Ordered an MP back in June for the July batch and finally received it today. Loving it so far even though it's got a few quirks.

(The Minimal is the e-ink phone with the QWERTY keyboard).

I've been using a dumb phone for a while now and didn't want to go back to a full smartphone, so this seemed like a decent compromise.

Probably the biggest annoyance I've noticed is the Alt and Shift buttons being in illogical places and wishing those were reversed.

And yes I made this post on it and am aware of the irony 😆

I've had a really really REALLY fun time using "shitty" old cameras.

Just grab a cheap early 2000's digital point-and-shoot. (Or in my case, over 100 of them)
My instagram is linked on my profile, I have almost 2500 photos posted from my entire collection.

Thanks! It's on my (very long) list of things to do lol.

Ideally I'd love to host it, too, I've been building up a small network rack with some fancy equipment, but I never seem to have the time to sit down and actually figure it all out... One of these days!
