Planes? Course not.

Maybe Julian, he’s always dragging me to the holodeck for some world War 1 and 2 dogfights over Europe.

Don’t look at my starship homework folder…

Hey now, I just said anthro planes, YOU brought porn into it.

hider to wear all black clothing and be small.

Now I’m imagining a chibi style anthropomorphic plane wearing all black clothes trying to be sneaky.

You did this to me.

Oh well the answer is obvious, as Ellen Mosque once said, no plane is actually a stealth plane because cameras can still see them, so canards obviously don’t make a difference!

I came here for certified noncredibility, not verifiable facts.

I don’t understand why everyone in the aviation community seems to hate canards and atthis point in too afraid to ask why…

They’re destroying your shit, you should be allowed to go destroy theirs.

My wife bought a bunch of books to keep herself occupied at work

She wasn’t able to choose a book to read next and ended up having a mild anxiety attack.

So I made a chart of books, gave her a d20, and once she finishes one series she rolls the die and reads whichever book she rolled, or rerolls if needed.

Well, here I go watching another couple hours of haka videos whose significance I probably don’t fully grasp but always make me emotional when they’re for someone who has passed.

They didn’t have to learn this, but they did. They can’t do much, but they do what they can.

Well, I’ve only seen d9 and chappie, so I’m not too hopeful.

Honestly it’s more “I’m so tired of remakes” but hey, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by movies before.

Fingers crossed its good.

Lmao this will be so neutered and watered down it will be unwatchable.

$5 says they make it a generic action movie with no deeper meaning than “bugs needed killing we just defended ourselves”

That way, he can just point to everyone else and say “see? They’re prolonging the war!“

Luckily this only works for two year iods and the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet.

Which is who is in charge of a lot of places, but you’d think normal people would never listen for a second.

I just want neat metal ship models without having to pay $100+ for out of production stuff…

Perhaps even one in a bottle.

I rode a bicycle 120 miles a few years back just because I felt like it one day. I’m probably not the best just for what’s considered “reasonable”

That said, it really is the joke/meme “Americans think 100 years is a long time, Europeans think 100 miles is a long distance”

Personally, I feel like if I’m more than 3 miles away, I’m not local. I may be “from the area” but I’m not “a local”

Most people I know wouldn’t consider 50 miles to be “close” though in terms of “can I pop over for a quick trip or do I need to plan my day around it”

As for car rides, like… If I’m driving I don’t mind so much because I’m occupied by trying not to die, but as a passenger anything over 5 minutes is not a “quick trip”

I’m from the united states Midwest and have Heard people claim to be local to cities while living 20miles away from city limits.

I’ll die on this hill.

Janeway made the practical call, the one that maximized survival for the entire crew.

As one entity on a starship with limited manpower and no resupply guaranteed, they need all the people they can get.

Yes, neelix and kess weren’t going to be on board originally. That is irrelevant at the time of his Tuvixation. He’s there, and they can’t afford to lose him, regardless of how atrocious his leeola root stew is.

Not to mention that tuvok played a very important role for Janeway, one that I don’t believe tuvix could handle. He was the one who reminded her of the “proper” thing to do that follows protocol. He’s the cool head. The logical one who remains calm when everyone else loses their shit. Chakotay isn’t on that level. Tuvix was too emotional.

Janeway made the right call.

They should just adopt the zip 22.

Hands down the most reliable, and powerful small caliber platform ever conceived.

Rich kids who don’t feel like taking stuff home for the summer.

The last time I used skype, it was to monitor my 3d print because I needed to finish a project and my last attempt went all spaghetti.

So as I was at work I’d log into my computer from my phone, call myself with skype, and check to make sure everything was still okay.

Then I discovered octoprint.

1 the things that have extra holodecks that I’ve seen are just space stations, which can have larger power stations. The ship in insurrection was purpose built to trick people into thinking it was their small village that they don’t leave often. It can have all the power it needs dedicated to the holodeck and be slow with a Son’a escort for protection.

2 with you on that one.

3 also with you on this one. It just makes sense. Two people on opposite sides of the system could have dinner together in a holodeck. Easiest sell in the world after the holodeck itself.

4 the only issue I have with medical areas being holodecks is how often we see power issues in star trek. If they lose power, no med bay, no holo-docs. But if you’re already doing it, I see no reason there can’t be all the holographic doctors you need, and if the entire interior of the ship is filled with holo-emmitters then the EMH isn’t an issue.

For the record, I’m with you. I think by the end of the 2380s they should definitely be having entire swathes of ships dedicated to holographic rooms.

In Voyager, The USS Prometheus had holo-emmitters all over, so the EMH was able to walk around and take the ship back from romulans.

Incidentally I was listening to some Certifiably Ingame ship breakdowns and they touched on a ship that has holographic interiors for a lot of spaces, but since I was falling asleep at the time I am unsure which ship it is. I’m trying to peruse the Playlist to see if anything looks familiar.
