As soon as you create another Tuvix copy that does not survive.

You’re still killing a Tuvix.

No, because they’re not in thr pattern buffer anymore.

I’ll watch it because I love trek and even bad trek is more trek.

That is just… Not a smart thing to do. Just mindlessly consuming stuff that’s bad because it’s part of a franchise you like leads to more bad media of that franchise being published. Be critical! Be brave enough to draw a line and keep it!

There’s also this picture:

I wonder if he had that idea before or after Patrick Stewart was cast as Picard.

After/during the casting process. Originally, Gene Roddenberry didn’t want a bald actor to play Picard, becausr in his opinion there should be a cure to male pattern baldness in the future. Stewart was even asked to bring a hair piece for the audition. However, Roddenberry was talked out of it by basically everyone else with any responsibility in the casting process (partly because Stewart looked somewhat cursed with a hairpiece).

Quark is a dairy product of soured milk with added lactic acid bacteria and strained. It is popular in baltic, germanic and slavic cuisine.

There’s not much actual sience behind the technobabbel of Star Trek tbh. It’s just as much of a magic system as the force is.

Some of the stories are pretty clever.

This movie isn’t though.

Still AI slob. Fuck AI slob.

This comment is to recognize all the forgotten Crewmen, Chief Petty Officer and all the other, never mentioned (at least onscreen) enlisted and NCO ranks.

Where are you in your Discworld journey? Which is your favorite so far?

I’m in Men at Arms, reading in release order. I have no favourite book (I rarely have favorites of any kind), I like most of them very much, though Pyramids, Faust Eric and Small Gods didn’t quite hit my taste. Also, Death is a hilariously relatable character.

Maybe, when I’m through the Disc World books.

Not theories. Fantasies.

Make it sausage.

After watching Prodigy, it’s Wesley. No doubt left.

But the episode fits in nicely withe the rest of the season.

Pure cringe tbh. But just the cherry on top of a very questionable and cringy episode.

Well, imagine releasing an episode depicting how biological essentialism expresses in vulcans while the world revels in fascism and racists trying to tell us how people are hardwired based on perceived ‘race’ and ethnicity.
Or while civil societies struggle and fight back against lobbyists, radical capitalists, all kinds of power grabbing individuals, releasing an episode literally saying “good systems are good because good people are in charge”.
Oh, and there’s the speciesist episode.

Then there’s even more and overt memberberries.

That’s six of ten episodes. Another episode is the second part of the last episode of season two. The remaining three episodes are okay.

We are told Starfleet isn’t military, but what we are told and how it (often) acts and is structured like always meant an interesting conflict.

Also, I don’t mind that it looks more like higher edication than military. I mind that it looks too much like what we have nowadays. Star Trek fashion was, though memeable, it’s own distinct thing. Like we don’t do fashion today as people in the 18th or 19th century, why should 23rd or 24th century fashion look like ours?
ENT played that nicely, those costumes bridged the gap almost perfectly (especially Starfleet uniforms), looking enough like later (in the timeline) stuff but reminiscend of what we have today, like a natural evolution.

Bur Academy is to be set in 32nd century, it should be as distant to us as the 10th century.
