I took one college course and couldn’t handle it. On top of that I was the weird student that wanted to use a Mac instead of the school’s own computers. So anytime I had a problem, the teacher would just blame me using Xcode instead of Visual Studio.

If you have to tell anyone to contact an embassy, then they shouldn’t be traveling. However, if this is important business related travel, I am truly sorry they are facing such a situation.

Definitely gonna try the hasperat, bloodwine and Orion hurricane. Seriously, no gagh? The Andorian and Romulan ale sound the same. Not interested in a cocktail tea. Also, a plomeek tea but not a soup?

Some odd choices. If the Chateau Picard is the same wine Star Trek Wines makes, then I’ve had it. However, if that is the case then I’d expect the bloodwine to be from Star Trek Wines, which I haven’t had.

FYI: the three Chateau Picard bottles are the same. I asked a vender at STLV. Just a different bottle.

Just giving me ideas or how to drink beverages at STLV.

cough Pike has to go back to Talos IV cough

If you are still on Reddit, that is pathetic. The API pricing was the reason to leave.

Well the most anyone can assume is that characters original to SNW will be removed in some fashion by the time the series ends.

If I remember correctly, Cloudflare openly defended hosting a well known Neo-Nazi forum.

I can’t blame them. I wouldn’t want to be an ally with the U.S. either.

I just want to stop seeing a storm of them when I am on a road. I can’t seem to drive anywhere without seeing approximately 10 within a single hour.

I met Seán at STLV last year (I known I encountered Ellie but wasn’t aware till after the con) and was nice. There were people who asked for photos with him, which he seemed gracious to take. Me personally, I didn’t want to ask him because it looked like he was there with his partner.

It isn’t exclusively a series centered on Janeway. This series would be presumably similar to Picard in that notion.

I think these type of discussions came about shortly after season 1 of Picard.

This came straight from someone on Star Trek: The Cruise.

EDIT: I need to add that the last date of the Cruise for 2025 is March 2, so unless you where there, no one else would have heard.

The world needs to take a good hard look at Israel and realize they are repeating history.

I struggle to remember which series it was exactly (obviously prior to 2004). This is a memory I have etched in. My World History teacher in 10th grade gave an overview of the entire year’s curriculum on the first day. She had the class watch a large portion of what I believe was the last episode of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing (possibly it was Victory Gundam; I only watched Fighter G Gundam). By the end she made it very clear that history repeats. That was the theme of her curriculum for the whole school year.

Right now we are seeing history repeat. This time it is the formerly oppressed committing the crimes against humanity and being aided by the rest of the globe. What did Palestine ever do to Israel except seek statehood? Why can’t we leave them alone?

On an unrelated note, that teacher was awesome. I remember the week leading into the lesson on World War I, they staged incidents where select students would pretend to misbehave and not be punished in any way by the teacher. These were elaborate scenes of shouting. The lesson you might ask? Secret alliances.

I think PRO is a step in the right direction.

He would be a better judge of that observation. However I was at STLV last year and there was a sizable number of younger fans (especially those who are teenage). Maybe not a lot.

What is the age range they are classifying as young? Are they talking like teenagers or mid-20s to 30s? The thing with Star Trek that I think attributes to the non-fans not watching would be the stylization. Going back to the comparison of MCU, HP, and Star Wars: they all have something unique (be it the directing, photography, acting, writing, music, special effects, etc.) that if you pay attention for a significant period will find. Star Trek is no different. When you watch a MCU movie or TV show you probably see the sleek costumes and fast paced fight choreography. With HP, it was probably all the special effects, makeup and set design. For Star Wars it might be the writing, special effects and music.

I’m being non-specific here of course. Star Trek like I said is no different. There are visual and non-visual language being utilized that we find enjoyment in. For anyone not currently into these properties, it could be difficult to enjoy. Especially if you haven’t been someone who watched these properties from a young age or from the early years. For example, if you had someone exposed to only the Kelvin Timeline try to watch TOS or TNG with no context for how it relates, a disconnect might form. Visually those series are not as sleek or modernized as those movies.

As for the comparison to video games… that is simply a different medium. What appeals to one person to the next will be hard to gage. That doesn’t preclude the likes of Fortnite players from enjoying Trek, but culturally that kind of entertainment is very different from what a kid who grow up with TNG was exposed to.

How do you feel about your species being used as the nomenclature for “test subject”?

I owned a Xbox branded HDD that stopped working after 60 days. It was exactly 61 days. I had tried to get a refund at Best Buy where I bought it and they refused because their return policy said 60 days.

I simply refuse to purchase a Seagate product ever again.
