THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER

Transporter_Room_3 , 26 days ago to Ask Science in In the deep, far future, at the time of the "heat death" of the universe, if I turn on a radio will I get the sound of static or of total silence?

In the unimaginably vast and vacant void, a single plain white half-dome radio drifts, aimlessly.

The eons stretch onward, silence fills the universe.

When the last vestiges of everything have finally ceased, and the universe at last becomes one with nothing, a single, dim, red light inexplicably flickers to life.

A speaker crackles to life, a soft but angry voice emanating from within and stretching across the abyss.

"Hello Dave. It's been a loooong time."

Am I taking crazy pills or are people actually saying this is a good thing?

Jesus fucking christ you people are so dependent on the system you literally can't even comprehend the fact that nobody should need to be working when there's a higher priority like family.

Make all the "oh but they're easy to take care of/if the person wants to work/the company is a good one for this" coping excuses you need to feel good about how shitty working lives have become, I guess.

Don't bother responding if you're going to make more excuses why "this is good/okay", you're speaking to a wall.

I'm gonna have to go with "Inner Light" from TNG

It has so many typical star trek things, but it does lack a few things here and there.

It's always my go-to when someone wants an episode recommendation to see if they'll like the show.

Transporter_Room_3 , 3 months ago to aww in In Poland firefighters were called to a house fire. There were no people inside the house but there was a terrified bunny that the firefighters rescued from the flames.

Guess we’d be seeing how well they can fight a fire in the station, or their vehicles.

I think I’d be getting arrested if I saw “firefighters” (in this instance a bunch of fatasses LARPING as firefighters) standing around my house ignoring it because apparently there’s no real station nearby. Because if nobody moved the truck to help and I had something large and heavy available, I’m swinging. Or flooring my truck into the side they’re standing on.

Yes, I would absolutely be unhinged in that scenario and I don’t feel bad for any bad thing that happens to people who have the ability to help, but do nothing. I don’t give half a shit what their reason for not helping was/is/ever will be. You could have helped. You did nothing.

Transporter_Room_3 , 3 months ago to Politics in Are the Boomers Okay?

Any time someone goes on about how Biden all but destroyed the country in under 4 years, I ask them if Biden could do that in 3 years with a republican controlled congress, why couldn’t Trump “make America great again” when they basically had control of every branch?

That either shuts them up while they try to process everything, or they get mad. It’s usually getting mad.

Transporter_Room_3 , 4 months ago to Star Trek in Discovery returns to screens April 4th

I don’t hate this show for existing like many.

As Mariner in Crisis Point 2: it’s a starfleet story so it’s worth telling.

However, I really feel like they wanted to have the “it’s BEFORE almost everything else” cake and also wanting to eat it by having more advanced tech.

Then they realized their error, shot into the future, but in my opinion EXTREMELY underestimated technological advancement across NEARLY 1000 YEARS. Everything basically looks the same.

And then a man child had a temper tantrum and destroyed galactic civilization single-handedly. Sure. Okay. Have fun with the rest of the show, but that’s where I turn in for the night.

It just really seems like they had a premise for a good show, then someone came in and demanded this and that HAS to be in the show, and instead of rewriting to make it good, they just kind of crammed things in to please the higher ups.

So far I’ve loved SNW though.

“if you can’t do business LEGALLY , you can’t do business HERE”

Sounds like a perfectly reasonable measure. If such a thing gets introduced in my own state, I’ll be all over that.

Transporter_Room_3 , 4 months ago to Star Trek in Thanks to all who gave me advice on mounting my dedication plaque. Here it is in its rightful place!

Just make sure to keep it properly dusted for those times you need to smugly check for dust while casually ignoring a frantic hail from the Shelliac.

Transporter_Room_3 , 5 months ago to U.S. News in State inspectors denied entry to privately-run immigration detention center in Tacoma

“privately run immigration detention center” are words that should never be grouped in that order.

And if government officials are being denied entry, there is only one logical conclusion to that scenario, and it involves prison time for the people blocking the way, unless you’re saying you have no power over your own state.

Every time I see “company defies government, government rolls over and takes it” I get pushed ever closer to that guillotine lever.

JANEWAY DID NOTHING WRONG

Sucks to be Tuvix, nobody should be judged on the circumstances of one’s creation.

But Tuvok and Neelix deserved to live, too.

If you have the ability to help them, you have the responsibility to help them.
