  1. Re:Voyager on Ask Slashdot: How To Introduce Someone To Star Trek? · · Score: 1

    I actually thought that her insanity made Janeway more interesting. Watching through the series again, in order, and in a relatively short period of time you really do get the sense that by season 4 Janeway is shifting her moral compass markedly. By season 7 she has obviously all sense of objectivity, makes dreadful and borderline evil command decisions, and should have been court martialed upon her return to Earth. The big shame there is that this was a golden opportunity for Chakotay to show some growth and confront her in a meaningful way (which they almost try to do once or twice, but then back away from actual interesting development there). Instead they basically abandon his character to his blandness.

    They already made a documentary about this. It was called Bioshock. I think I remember that it turned out well for everyone involved...

  3. Re:Money, money... on Telcos Compete For Education Broadcast Spectrum · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Yes, yes they are. My old school has a few electronic media degrees. Once upon a time, this meant we had a great radio broadcast program, and a frequency to go with it. The school had an actual broadcast studio on par with many of the local for profit stations in terms of equipment. They even had a separate recording studio set up for interviews and production material, or just so one person could be broadcasting live and others could still learn in the secondary studio. Now the school doesn't have that frequency. They weren't technically allowed to sell the frequency, because it was licensed for educational use, but they've rented it out for an unspecified number of years (the speculation is that its gone for at least 20 years). So yes, schools will whore out their frequencies, to the detriment of students.
