lol and now 5 or 10 bucks is basically a value meal at McDonalds

Yes, yes it is. But that’s the world I at least live in. Dunno how it is outside of America.

I had to look this up because I didn’t remember a Gormagander from Hitchhikers… that thing looks like like they Tuvix’ed a blobfish and an uncircumsized penis.

lol just wants a place for his fellow lizard-people to live in comfort.

He was experimenting with transwarp technology used by the Borg. I mentioned this in another comment but I think the reason he lizard-ified was because he didn’t have a Borg transwarp conduit to reduce the infinite probability down to a finite point in space. Thats how the Borg were able to travel nearly instantaneously across entire quadrants of space without turning into mecha-lizards. Like you said, it’s silly if you try to think about it too much.

Wow, McDonalds gave out VHS copies? That must have cost them a pretty penny compared to the things they give out now! Not McDonalds, but I still remember being excited when I got a VHS in the mail with a 10 minute trailer for the Nintendo rumble pack that had Sega and Sony (I think?) “torturing” Nintendo for information.

I believe it, the 90s were a wild time for digital media. I remember the grocery store having a stand full of $10 computer games, which is how I found Raptor: Call of the Shadows.

Why does Neelix look more uncomfortable with this than Kes does lol

Wait that isn’t Scott Bakula on the right?

Pigs In Space

I forgot all about Captain Link Hogthrob lol.

I’m talking more like the Windows ME/XP days to be honest. But too many to count. It’s more that actually useful features that used to be fairly standard (like 7-segment status displays and speakers) are effectively being gated behind $500+ motherboards to make them more attractive. A board that would have come with alphanumeric status codes now is lucky to ship with a couple LEDs that just indicate where a problem is at, not what the specific problem is.

Maybe that’s why he’s trying to build a life underground.

Skate parks? You mean HIPPIE HANGOUTS?

President’s name was mentioned in some documents part of Tuesday’s release but did not implicate him in any crimes.

He was present while they drowned a baby.

Yeah for sure. Just re-read the MA page on warp factor and, apparently, warp 10 is also the transwarp threshold. I wonder if this is why the Borg need transwarp conduits to reduce that infinite probability down to a single point in space.

The in-universe explanation for part of this is that Starfleet re-factored the warp scale sometime between the 23rd and 24th century. As for the Enterprise, idk blame Q or The Traveler. I don’t think they ever exceeded warp 9.x with conventional warp engines though.

Woah, was she always wearing yellow early on or was this just for this episode? I’m so used to seeing her in command red.

Just don’t go on any manhunts yourself.

I’m sorry, the what?

I said we don’t talk about it!
