I’m curious about what your issue with Rom’s portrayal was.

@USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website avatar

My interpretation of Rom’s portrayal was that he was playing up the simple earnestness of the character, as a ploy to lull Admiral Vassery into accepting the terms of deal as part of a test to see if the Federation had the lobes to be viable allies to the Ferengi Alliance.

Nope, as mentioned in the post, I didn’t make this one.

I think you may be referring to “Extreme Risk”, where Paris builds the Flyer.

“Drive” is the episode where Paris’ ongoing midlife crisis prompts him to convince Janeway that allowing him to enter the Flyer in a politically charged race between former enemy states is a good idea.

Spock’s insecurities being the cause for whatever is happening here is my hope as well. It’s a funny moment, but it falls apart under even the slightest scrutiny, so I’m hoping Trelene did it or whatever.

‘Academy’ hasn’t even started filming, so likely not.

If there’s enough interest, I’m fully willing to start putting up the comics discussion posts again. The issue initially was I was almost always the only one sharing my thoughts about the books.

What is it you are seeing?

Strange. I assume that is not the case for other posts on the board?

Canon Connections: PRO 2x02 - Into the Breach, Part II

• ”I swear, you’ve read those first contact protocols more than Picard.” Gwyn is too polite to reply that she, an alien child who grew up in a Delta Quadrant labour camp, has has no context for who Admiral Jean-Luc Picard is, even if he was captain of Starfleet’s flagship....

12 is what I want to pick as well, just because I feel like Riker and Kirk are some of the more gregarious characters, and would make for the best conversation, but that would be three relatively burly dudes in one another’s space for a pretty long time.

I think ultimately I would have to pick 8.

Canon Connections: PRO 2x01 - Into the Breach, Part I

• It’s perhaps interesting that the opening sequence for the show (or at least this episode) has not changed from the first season. Because of that, we still see elements such as the USS Protostar which was destroyed in in season one’s “Supernova, Part 2”, and a representation of the Emergency Janeway Hologram, which...

Thank you! These are always fantastic. Please keep them up!

Thanks, I appreciate it. I’m going through season two as I’m able, but with Netflix dropping them all at once, and my other obligations, I can’t say I’m going to be especially quick with the posts. Hopefully I can do two or three a week, but I make no promises.

No, that’s a whole other board.

I guess Gen Z didn’t pay as much attention to space because the shuttle program ended before their time?

I love that one of the enduring aspects of human nature is that each generation wants broad strokes paint the ones that follows them as lazy, incurious dolts who will lead to the downfall of civilization. Gen Z is getting the brunt of it now, but it wasn’t too long ago that op eds were written blaming Millennials for “killing” everything from golf, to wine, to napkins, to basic courtesy. We can go all the way back to Plato, disparaging the youths of ancient Greece for sagging their togas, and spending all their time looking at tablature as opposed to having real conversations. And, of course, my generation also got its fair share before we all turned into the cranky old men shaking our fists at clouds in between writing those op eds.

Please explain what it is about my post you think is trolling.

Lack of time is definitely the enemy of table top gaming. I feel very fortunate that I’ve managed to have an ongoing [mostly] weekly STA game for two and half years now.

You don’t have to play the good guys for the system to work, the same system is used for Dune - Adventures in the Imperium, and that’s a setting about as morally grey as it gets. Even with Star Trek Adventures, there is the Klingon Core Rulebook if you want to be a bit more rowdy than your typical Starfleet officers. The Operations Division sourcebook has suggestions for playing as Section 31 as well.

Season one of StarTrek.website is in the bag! So we've added "V'ger", as a treat.

Like many other Lemmy instances, we turned one this week! If you enjoy the Voyager app experience but prefer to only login locally (not that there’s any reason whatsoever to distrust vger.app) or not log in at all, we now have an option for you!...

My excitement at having Paul Giamatti in Trek is significantly tempered by the idea that he’s going to be the season villain for “Starfleet Academy”. Unless he’s going to be the hard ass dean of the Academy that doesn’t want to put up Tilly’s students putting Orion pheromones in the environmental system, and kidnapping the Klingon Military Academy’s targ mascot before the big game, I’m not interested in a villain.

If you’re paying, you can spell his name any way you like.
