To me it would have made FAR more sense to keep it a secret that Picard is a robot. But everyone seems to know. Even people that haven't seen him for 20 years. Like it was the cover story of every magazine on the newstand one week. The scene where Jack asks the robot how he survived Iromodic...

That is what mini HDMI means and Gateway is a respectable brand unless it has slumped in recent years.

The straight read at the time was that they weren't sure such a thing was really possible. I just refreshed myself on wikipedia and it was Sarek that told Kirk to go get his body back and take the Katra to Vulcan. The wiki summary believes that it wasn't to resurrect him, but to properly lay...

In the sense that I've talked about it recently in this or another Star Trek thread. I am particularly fond of thinking about how Riker talks in an episode about how he spends the time cooking because replicated food is just not quite the same when the same technology is okay for his brain...

Yeah, you are kinda quoting me in your quote AND in your response. But I don't think it is the SAME handwave. It's still an Easter egg and the TOS biobed actually doubles down on it. Kirk died in the 2370s. They wouldn't keep him alive with a 100-year-old biobed just because he is that old...

There is nothing wrong with refurbished on Amazon, but you want to look at how old the model is. Aside from having an HDMI, practically anything you get is capable of what you are wanting, but if you get a 2018 model, even refurbished, it will stop working well in a few years. All of my tablets...

I was thinking that Soong was actually working at Daystrom. It doesn't explain why he is allowed to keep the body, just because he's curious about it, but then we are on strange territory here. The robot got to start out at Starfleet with Picard's seniority and Picard's son treats the robot...

It makes sense that they'd remove his body if they are going to all the trouble of removing the D saucer. Eventually those Earthlings are going to Mars and they'll find a non-Earthling body. I hope they appreciate having an actual class-M planet adjacent in their system. They probably think...

I think Picard Season 3 was a great example of how deep fans are into easter eggs nowadays. I think people have forgotten that when easter eggs started being a thing it was workers having fun and it was not intended that the audience would even notice them. I just saw a clickbait article about...

I forgot that I really wanted the combined new being to adopt a name that honored Data, but acknowledged not being him.

Yeah, the carbonation is harsh if you aren't used to it.

I don't count Nog or Winn as main cast, because THEY don't. The main cast get their names up on screen while the orchestra is playing and not being in an episode is unusual. Nog was in 47 (27%) and Winn was in 14 (8%). They are recurring characters. I have no idea how many recurring cast...

I think Matalas' intention is that this is the last gasp of the Borg, but he didn't hammer it down, either out of sloppiness or (I hope) out of self-awareness. His show is done and maybe he will get another. But Star Trek is bigger than him and other people need room to move. When (not if)...

Is the "supercube" bigger than a normal cube? I didn't form that impression, but I guess as big as a cube normally is, it doesn't take long to fly the distance from the outer edge to the core. I'm not SURE the writers care about that though. I still think you are thinking too 3D. This...

It has been almost 30 years and they were all grownups. But at the same time, the whole main cast of TNG are still alive and DS9 has lost only 1.

I didn't realize Michael O'Hare had died.

I quit in college and thoroughly broke the habit, but I do occasionally have a Sprite or something when one is at hand and sometimes a coffee when I need it for medicinal purpose on the road.

It pretty well checked all the boxes for me.

I did watch Bravestarr
