Being the captain of the flagship of Starfleet and being the designated the Starfleet representative for MOST of the diplomatic achievements of his era certainly does suggest that the authorities of his era certainly made this assessment. Having actually saved Humanity, NUMEROUS other species, and the entire concept of biological life in the entire universe during his tenure makes it an objective reality.
In fairness, Picard was presented as one of the greatest men of his generation. He was not at all intended to be average, even among starship captains, which is already a pretty elite group.
Thats always the problem with building hardware open source products. You spend millions developing the OS to work with your stuff and you get like six months before someone else is competing with you, except they didn't have to spend that investment. The only reason we got the steamdeck was because the guys that made it ALSO owned the means of putting games on it, so they didn't really need to make money on the product itself (kinda like with Google and the play store).
The more interesting tidbit is that this is actually pretty common. The prop house using real skeletons was actually pretty common and not unique to this production. The notable thing about this film was the sheer number of skeletons that they used, so they basically scooped up everything that was out there, and how much the live actors actually interacted with the skeletons. It wasn't particularly unusual for skeletons to be used as props.
Really, just about any time you saw a skeleton on screen before the 90s or so, it was probably real. A lot of real world props and decorations also used real skeletons, sometimes to the surprise of the people using them. For example, if you rode the original Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney Land, you saw real human skeletons.
Seriously. I am perfectly happy to complain about the DNC all day long, and chiefly my complaints are that they are not different ENOUGH from the Republicans, but they are still pretty different in the sense that they aren't actually interested in building concentration camps, murdering protestors, and literally destroying the few remaining parts of the country that actually function.
The biggest weakness of fascism is always that it tends to attract a lot more idiots who want to steal money than true believers in the actual philosophy.
Maybe they can bundle them up into investment vehicles and sell them to normal people, they can name them Regular Everyday Investment Trusts or something. Totally no way for that to fall apart.
The fact that TNG has this handful of objectively amazing episodes is what keeps it right on top of the whole history of the franchise. They weren't all good, but when TNG was great it was REALLY great.
I think calling him a TERF is actually giving him too much credit because it implies that he is some sort of feminist (albeit one with a narrow view of femininity) and he isn't even that. He's just a bigot.
Ah yes, the logical fallacy of "noticing that the other person can't read." Good catch.
