Now tell me how to brew beer while I run and you’ve got me on board.

“This is why she’s not allowed on the couch” says joke to me idk.

Did you see the strange new worlds episode?

thats a pretty extreme trolley problem hahaha. did you learn ethics from michael? “kill one child, or kill an entire civilization. tick tock!”

(just kidding! i agree that the point is that there isn’t an answer)

why would you re-traumatize me like this

does he not understand that if he can rename them after himself, someone else can rename them again just as easily?

Yeah, I think I get what they were trying to do with bringing back the camp of the original series but it was a bit too much for me. That said, I didn’t mind their version of a “holodeck” episode! (the elysian kingdom)

Thats a fair critique for sure. I may have been a bit starved for classic Trek by the time this aired 😂 . I dont think it was the WORST episode though. I’d probably vote for the orion episode as worst of season 1…

edit: thinking about it more, i think the main “point” of the story was that sometimes the best intentions simply aren’t enough. no matter how much starfleet might try to impose their moral viewpoint on other cultures, there will be no-win scenarios with no good answer. you just have to learn how to live with the guilt of not being able to save everyone.

Was that ever established? I remember having the impression that this was some ancient technology they had just always used and didn’t necessarily understand. Somewhat like that society in TNG with the planetary cloaking shield that was slowly killing them all. And yeah, Pike looked absolutely gutted.

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode (besides the flagrant OSHA violations obvi!). I was already into SNW but this, finally, presented a real moral quandary for Pike. Do you “allow” this civilization to use this technology that they don’t really understand but believe is necessary, leaving a child in an unknown level of suffering, or do you “rescue” the child from that suffering? It’s a good thing that Pike isn’t some sort of emergency medical program.

definitely a york peppermint patty

Ahh, so for the same reason my cat eats grass.

disclaimer: linux noob here.

the separate pull request appears to be for archinstall, “a helper library which automates the installation of Arch Linux.” it would collect user age during installation… somehow?

well then i’ll repeat what i said earlier. dang that sucks =(

Oooh, that’s a good angle. The Ferengi definitely get some unique looking ships.

It’s wholly owned and operated by Paramount Skydance. I’m sure they have to “pay” the parent company for tax reasons and stuff but why would that be an issue here? The content rights are all owned by the same company that owns Pluto TV. Maybe in Canda they aren’t offering it because they operate in partnership with Corus Entertainment?

The Queen of Shitty Robots herself designed a chair for exactly this purpose!

edit: i believe it’s out of kickstarter now.

dang, that sucks. pluto is owned by Paramount Skydance so i’m not sure why they wouldn’t be able to offer it in canada.

Once Path of Exile 2 goes out of early access I highly recommend giving it a try. It’s unashamedly inspired by Diablo 2 and a lot of fun.

the runabouts are more like space RVs and the quadrant their open road
