  • Many haven't seen this niche Star Trek series

    Jump

  • A Canadian cartoon about caring bears for kids sounds like exactly the kind of thing that would exist in the Federation. It would just be on the Holodeck

  • Kirk, you dog!

    Jump

  • TNG endorses AI

    Jump

  • The way the various shows handle the holodeck is pretty similar as well. It can generate environments and stories for you, but sometimes it makes crazy mistakes, and over time, it's made clear that custom programs made by real authors are of higher quality. It even has guardrails that frequently fail.

    The replicator is the same idea. It makes good-enough food, but a real chef with real ingredients has a higher ceiling for quality.

    There's a quote from a character in Generations, "We believe that when you create a machine to do the work of a man, you take something away from the man." It aligns with the Federation's ideal of self improvement, and in a post-scarcity utopia, I think it makes sense. Without intellectual property, environmental concerns, or the need to work for a living, AI isn't so terrible. It's just important you maintain your own motivation to better yourself. Too bad we're so far behind on all those parts

  • "It's marble, about twenty metres tall and you're looking up at the sky. Your hand sort of reaching to the future." - Geordi

    Jump

  • This is why Boimler keeps a statue of Archer by his bed

  • At least the writers remembered, Janeway

    Jump

  • Neelix just collapsed one day, because his lung ascended into energy to be with Suspiria

  • Wrong answers only - WHY didn't Kim ever get promoted?

    Jump

  • Every time you die, or are replaced by something like an alternate universe duplicate, your seniority resets

  • He's a literal terrorist

    Jump

  • People like Dukat more than Polaski, and I'm pretty sure, by the end of DS9, he was actually the devil. That's what you get for being mean to Data

  • Star Trek keeps breaking down barriers

    Jump

  • Technically also gay! 👍

  • Personal growth aside... where's Alexander?!

    Jump

  • By the Picard episode, he has probably already gone back in time to kill himself

  • Maybe the anticipation was torturous enough.

    Jump

  • He did end up in a bar fight with a group of Klingons though, so it was a close one

  • I had no idea a Voyager game is about to come out, the trailer fo which shows you will be able to make this exciting choice!!

    Jump

  • They also have separate crew options for fully Klingon and fully Human B'Elanna. Personally, I'm hoping we can become the Silver Blood ship. I want to see if I can get them to Earth before they turn to goop

  • I'm just straight for Ezri

    Jump

  • Ezri seems pretty NB-coded to me, especially in the context of the setting

  • Or are we skipping that step along with the Eugenics Wars and going right into WWIII?

    Jump

  • Step 2 is the Reunification of Ireland

  • you're doing ReSeArCh rong!!

    Jump

  • Art! Where logic fails to motivate, artistic expression can lead to emotional understanding

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • We are all at his mercy.

    Jump

  • O'Brien does it every day, and you don't hear him bragging

  • As Dr. Crusher is to Hypospray....

    Jump

  • Level 1 is the "make sure everything is plugged in" level

  • 'Tis the season

    Jump

  • An artistic depiction of a Vulcan's head, Superimposed over a primitive metallic fastening device.

    This is illogical.

  • That was a close one

    Jump

  • If this hasn't been tilt-cropped, would I be seeing an iFunny watermark? 😂
