    marcos,

    Anything that people use to mean “average” will evolve into meaning “bad”. There are no exceptions.

    marcos,

    Well, if you lose the OOPism of those dots, we can talk.

    Anyway, I’m really against the “having” tag. You need another keyword so that you can apply your filter after the group by?

    marcos, (edited )

    All of the people that will live forever affirm the consequent.

    marcos,

    I’m not sure if I could manage to get a paper newspaper nowadays if I went out looking for it.

    marcos,

    He only tries murder once or twice!

    marcos,

    Just clone the princes and get on with your day.

    marcos,

    Hum… By the end of DS9 he lives in the federation. For nearly all of it he lives in Bajor, and shortly before it he lives in the Cardassian Empire.

    Yeah, I could see the Lower Decks version of him speaking it.

    marcos,

    Says a huh-man that uses paper to trade…

    marcos,

    That static moon…

    Is it secretly a balloon?

    marcos,

    Do they get to the parallel universe in Enterprise? I imagine there won’t be too many differences.

    marcos,

    I’m surprised you have more upvotes than downvotes, but yeah, this is a comment that I would expect to get lots and lots of votes.

    marcos,

    That “forward” would be upwards? In does that people acknowledge relativity, but won’t accept geometry or gravitation?

    marcos,

    Well, it really wasn’t. You’d program by punching the cards, and then insert them into the computer. If they brought the boards from a terminal (or replicator), and switched the old ones to the new ones, the entire thing would make sense.

    It’s a bit similar to how people programed analogical computers at the 50s. But it’s actually a lot like programing old sewing machines. The thing those have in common is that their programs were always an order of magnitude smaller than this comment.

    Hum… I have a 75MJ varistor on each phase of the main wiring of my house. Those are not fuses (because fuses don’t have a total energy specification) but I can certainly get a few more for the Enterprise it they want.

    marcos,

    People insist on making Janeway do those crazy stunts… Just remember that it wasn’t her that created a fleet or Von Neumann probes programed to act as space mines.

    marcos,

    Or to have completely reasonable responses to anything that happens on Voyager.

    marcos,

    As soon as everybody is speaking it, the word itself is already meaningless and the context has all the information. So, yeah, ignoring it is quite efficient.

    Anyway, I suspect that when you notice those things happening, it already means that you are old.

    marcos,

    You don’t have to go very far. There’s an episode on Discovery where Pike just goes and say something like “Enough with the problems with holograms! From now on the Enterprise will have only flat screens!”

    marcos,

    No, they don’t. They can get absorbed and re-emitted, and the space they are moving though can compress sideways. But they can’t make curves at all.

    marcos,

    Does Loki come with the full TVA gear?

    marcos,

    Well, suddenly the Minbari sound much less threatening.

    marcos,

    He’s responsible for most of the knowledge the Discovery crew acquired about how to deal with trauma and loss after they time-jumped.

    marcos,

    They have almost zero space presence, they only attack the ships from the ground. The only thing they can do with space is sending eggs away. (And those asteroids weren’t knocked out of orbit, they were sent though hyperspace.)

    Besides, the movie makes it pretty clear they just discovered they are in a war a few weeks prior.

    (And now I’m wondering how the fuck do I remember that well a movie I’ve seen once, a long time ago… Is it actually good and I didn’t notice at the time?)

    marcos,

    That thing is in TOS? I really thought it was another Expanse meme.

    marcos,

    It’s not exactly Mormons that you need here. Just to point out, but the bugs on that movie are completely unable to redirect a space rock in any way.
