#lcars — Public Fediverse posts

Now that my #quickshell #desktop #shell is almost finished and I'm thinking about packaging it, I'm *really* tempted to write an #LCARS one next.

Please stop me 😅 🫠

TITAN.DS interactive website October update ➡️ Voyager + Protostar added to the Fleet Directory module. Mobile wallpapers of these two ships can also be downloaded from my public Google Photos album. All links are in my Dev Log 🔸 https://mewho.com/logs/t2026.10.12a/

Congrats to GTJLCARS website for its 25th anniversary🎉
• If you like #LCARS, you probably know Jens's site already. If not, check it out at👉 gtjlcars.de I can't read German, but it's still super fun to click around and discover hidden gems😀 (GTJLCARS is active on FB)

Also, I had *no idea* how deep the Home Assistant rabbit hole went until a few weeks ago. Sure, I spent a little time tinkering. Once I saw this (https://community.home-assistant.io/t/star-trek-lcars-theme/511391), I knew, at some point, I would wind up spending way too much time in HA.

At this point, I have an iPad that feels a lot like a TNG PADD that can run most of the house. With any luck, in a few weeks, I'll be able to tell Alexa to fuck off entirely.

Mein #StarTrek #lowerdecks #Podcast #VierUnterDeck ( @vierunterdeck, mit @Shuhejla, @nSonic und @Taotica) ist zwar seit Anfang des Jahres abgeschlossen, aber nichtsdestoweniger wurde ihm eine neue Seite spendiert. Mit #LCARS! (oder zumindest daran angelehnt.) Seht selbst!

Went with my youngest son to the Hi-Score Computer Museum today. One exhibit there is an old Toshiba laptop running "Prince of Persia".

Back home I took my old Hercules eCafé EC-800 netbook (from 2008 with 32Bit AMD Geode CPU and 500MB RAM) and installed #FreeDOS to turn it into a retro gaming machine for my old DOS favorites like Prince, Doom, X-Wing etc.

And I added LCARS as GUI. Now it boots up looking like a proper Starfleet PADD.
LLAP! 🖖

[devLog] Recreating additional Ent-D graphics based on the Engineering room's "pool table." I'm still testing things out and figuring out exactly how to integrate this into my upcoming interactive web project.

1987 hat Michael Okuda für Star Trek eine Bedienoberfläche entworfen, die über vier Serien und zwei Jahrzehnte konsistent blieb: LCARS.

Apple, Microsoft und Linux haben in derselben Zeit drei bis vier komplette Designsystem-Brüche hingelegt.

Über UI-Disziplin, fiktive Designsprachen und das, was wir aus der LCARS Designsprache heute noch lernen können.

Powering down transport. Transporters off line, so I'll have to hoof it into the pub manually. Sigh.

Sector 004 Infrastructure: Fully Documented. 🖖🚀

I've mapped my entire network into a unified, LCARS-inspired tactical ecosystem. From the "Subspace Gateway" to the "Hive," everything is accounted for.

The Grid: 📡 Core: 5-Port Gateway expansion 💻 Edge: 8-Port hub for workstations 🧠 Collective: PoE+ 8-Port switch for the Hive 🤖 The Hive: RPi K3s cluster with Netdata telemetry

Now that I finally installed @homeassistant I also (finally) reflashed my old WiFi RGB lights to @esphome
This took some trial and error, but they're now all flashed to #ESPHome 🙂
And here's a screenshot of my next project with #HomeAssistant, #LCARS baby 🙂

If you're not tired of the holiday jingles yet, here is more. ❄️From my #TitanDS 2023 December update. Info on how to play the jingles directly in Titan.DS's DNA module, see➡️ https://mewho.com/logs/#t2023.12.19a

Just venting:

I am a long-time #StarTrek fan... but I fucking hate the #LCARS design language. Massive swoops of useless blocks of color eating up and cluttering screen space, containing equally useless numbers to look "sci-fi"; an ugly-ass font-choice; and annoying beeps and boops to sound "sci-fi" too. Discovery and Strange New Worlds do it so much better. Even DS9's Cardassian design was more appealing.

Let LCARS die, Trek fandom, I beg you.

In the Starfleet Technical Manual, there is a throwaway detail of the LCARS user interface that when it is upgraded, users can still utilize the previous several versions. This is because their work is mission-critical and it is unacceptable to compromise the mission by forcing unfamiliar changes; eventual retraining is part of their job, but the flexibility allows them to take the retraining at their own pace.

I think about this from time-to-time and how this is still a sci-fi idea that is seen all too rarely in how we do actual computer UIs.
