Firefly! I adore the Wild West theme mixed with the sci-fi elements. Feels really unique, and it represents what the spacefaring future probably would look like to the average person. Like everyone else, I’m livid it only got one series, even after all these years.
(I even made a magazine for it: https://kbin.social/m/browncoats )
Conversely, I work in IT Support and I get asked programming questions far too often… even to the point where I’m asked to fix applications despite not being a dev.
Then again, I basically have to deal with anything that’s got a plug on the end. I guess code falls into that category in some peoples’ heads.
I just created a sub for prog rock - hopefully I’m not stepping on anyone’s toes. @prog
EDIT: also made a couple more, while I was at it!

Or a transcript of the entire Spanish Inquisition sketch.
Side note, is there an agreed-upon ‘fediquette’?
On the other hand, I’ve been on my fair share of sites that only need an email address to open an account - they don’t ask for anything else, and you’re straight in. Can’t think of any examples off the top of my head, typically, but they do exist. It’s weird.
