Interesting. According to Brent Spiner (the actor who plays the android Data in Star Trek: The Next Generation)
1) it was Patrick Stewart's UK pronunciation of his character's name (day-tah instead of the US's dah-tah) that made this pronunciation canon, and
2) the character of Data and the popularity of Star Trek has led to "day-tah" now being the common pronunciation in the US, too.

The world got a little dimmer today with the passing of actor Teri Garr. I loved her in Young Frankenstein, but I think my favorite role was Sandy in Tootsie.
May her memory be a blessing.

I never did a pinned intro post, so: Started in #radio 30 years ago, which transitioned to #podcast 20 years ago. “Mac OS Ken” focuses on Apple News. “The Checklist by #SecureMac” focuses on security. Did a show about #StarTrek, until the people who owned it wouldn’t pay a decent wage (no fooling). These days, all I REALLY want to talk about are #bookbinding, #fountainpens, #postcards, and #stationery. Well… and #VR. And #AR. And #Apple and #podcasting and radio.
Oh. And fuck the fascists.
I'm playing around with an LCARS colour theme for @novelwriter, based on the colours of the display screens on Star Trek TNG and related shows.
Of course, since it is a text app, the layout doesn't look anything like LCARS, so it kind of works and it kind of doesn't. 😅
Edit: Dropped the green colour and updated the screenshot. That helped a bit.

I only started watching DS9 after the last VOY season, but I was hooked fairly soon and the entire story arc was simply amazing!
