The #Prodigy online service was presented using a graphical user interface.

The Data Object Architecture wrapped vector and incremental point graphics, encoded as per the North American Presentation Level Protocol Syntax #NAPLPS, along with interpretative programs written in the proprietary languages #TBOL (Trintex Basic Object Language) and PAL (Prodigy Application Language). #NAPLPS was authored in 1979 by Jerry Soloway and Bill Frezza from Bell Laboratory and Bob Bedard from CBS Laboratory.

Rewatching #StarTrek #Prodigy S2 and mediating on how Adreek-Hu's death was the oposite of Icheb's death in #StarTrekPicard

One the one hand in Adreek you have a new character who's death is elevated through the story. A few lines when they're alive. But we feel their death deeply through the sense of loss and anguish on Chayotay through Baltran's great performance and great scripting.

And on the other hand... [to be continued]

I was reading a story today about #theoldnet and how if you leave an “&” symbol at the end of an #email , it means you want the recipient to reply back. Does anyone remember this or still do this today? I don’t recall that being a thing or maybe it was and I didn’t notice. Gonna tag below with adjacent words in hopes of response.

Holy hell Alex.

Might as well have said "I am killing #StarTrek Wanna help?"

You want kids to watch Star Trek put it back on their screens. Has to be Trek tho. Go make tiktok videos man. Let someone who believes in the property and has interacted with a child make more shows like #Prodigy and put them in front of kids.

Not you though, Kurtzman.

Side note, that actor did the work with what was on the page. Likeable idiot is a tightrope walk, bummer he got Slipknot'd.

Hey internet infrastructure nerds:
Do we know anyone anywhere near
sbcglobal_postmaster@abuse-att.net who could speak to why mail from lse that goes through them and particularly through* prodigy.net keeps being rejected as "Deferred: 451 4.1.8 DNS error. Cannot resolve lse.org" when LSE's DNS is UP, accurate, and more stable than it’s been in years?

* through, NOT to.

Star Trek: Prodigy is one of my fave Trek series ever, and you should watch it on Netflix if you haven’t yet. (Heads up: the beginning is a bit like Farscape in the “a bunch of alien prisoners that don’t trust each other steal a ship and have to learn to get along.” So there are several episodes with interpersonal friction. Keep going, I promise you the teaminess becomes some of the best ever on a Star Trek show.) #StarTrek #Prodigy
