It doesn't even need to be a script you could just alias the 2 commands on a single line to a command in bashrc

The video is from Paramount Plus, who don't currently have the rights to Prodigy, even though the parent company does. If they included it in their promotional material it would effect their ability to either sell those rights to someone else or write the show off for tax purposes.

It's convoluted and stupid, but running your streaming service as a separate entity is how all the studios have it rigged up. Accounting ftw

Bluesky confuses me, how do I discover anything without hashtags? Maybe I've been on mastodon too long?

Prodigy has been removed from Paramount Plus.

Technically yes they do own Star Trek, but the way the accounting works is they sell the broadcast/streaming rights back to themselves. It's a bit convoluted, but taking the rights away from their own service means CBS as a studio can either resell it to another broadcaster/streamer or failing that write it off for tax purposes.

It sucks, but all the studios rig it up this way

I was similar, almost monthly releases over the years kept me engaged.

I would add to those recommendations the Cold Equations Trilogy and if someone enjoys that, Mortal Coil (as a prequel to cold Equations) and The Light Fantastic as a sequel.

Move to silverblue/kinoite and when the urge to use another DE just rebase the OStree to the other branch - Silverblue for Gnome, Kinoite for KDE, Sericea for sway, Vauxite for xfce and there are some other not yet official branches for other DEs on Quay

We still get our share of toxicity here. I mused recently that if you're assessing the success of lemmy/kbin on how close an experience to reddit it is - I've been attacked in the same ways by hyper fixated debate lords here too
