    I don't see how TMP is better.
  3. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Dogpiling Deathy was rude, but he didn't just appear out of nowhere yesterday. He has posted a lot of nothing comments in the last couple of weeks. Never saying anything except some version of "Not everyone thinks so"
  4. Star Trek General Discussion

    In 1989, I had only seen a few episodes of TOS, a few episodes of TNG, and Star Trek 3 once in the theater. When they found God, I thought it was God, and then found out with them that it wasn't. Much more informed now, there were a handful of TOS episodes where they met godlike beings, even...
  5. The 2024 Us Presidential Election Thread

    I used the word "extreme" and you picked up the word "extremist" and they don't mean the same thing to me. When I said extreme, I mean the greatest difference from the median view. If I had said extremist, I would have meant a position that is untenably distant from the norm. To your average...
  6. The 2024 Us Presidential Election Thread

    When defining "far-left" you do not have to get out a poster board and speculate the most extreme positions possible on every issue you can think of. You also don't have to compere to Norway. The rule of thumb should be that the common speech is correct, not the mathematical possibilities. In...

    NBC Calls: 207 Blue, 216 Red My Calls: 2 Blue, 6 Red ----> 209 - 222, GOP in control 4 Seats still too close to call lean 3 Blue, 1 Red -----------> My best guess is 212 - 223, a net gain of 2 seats for the Republicans

    When someone is sufficiently groomed, they never find out the tax cuts are not trickling down to them. What is happening is that they are so much better off than they would have been under the Democrats' failed policies.
  9. Star Trek General Discussion

    I saw 5 in the theater when I was a kid and liked it fine. Later I felt like it was weak, but I have forgiven it a lot since then. Like TMP, and not like 2-4, it does make a strong case for how we would do TOS if we had 2 hours and a large budget. Those good character moments are actually...

    Their viewers like billionaires getting rich. It means probably they will too.

    I honestly can't think of what policy proposal of Trump's you could be craving for your family. He campaigned on so little. Deportations and Tariffs.

    Is Fox ashamed of that?
  13. Star Trek General Discussion

    Anyway, it was still effective in 1986. Did you watch Picard? It is in the museum. I think the alien was coming to check on the Humpback whales and didn't find any. 5 also happens right on the tail of 4. Quadrilogy.
  14. Star Trek General Discussion

    I think they would be much better friends in later years. Less so here. The scene is very dramatic. I haven't seen it in years and I think it is mainly burned in. In retrospect, we know FOR SURE that Spock saved the ship. They DEFINITELY all die if he doesn't go do that. And I think Spock...
  15. Star Trek General Discussion

    Yeah, what Spock did to McCoy was not really okay. I would imagine that Spock had a vessel in his quarters that he could use if he thought his death was eminent, but this caught him with so little time that he decided to just do it that way.

    You had just best not task an AI will figuring out how to keep the water and air clean. Have you STILL not seen the Terminator?

    It's just weird because where you'd think they'd be like "The Left calls us Nazis because they are out of ideas", some of them just go "Yeah, what of it?"

    Can 45 be changed to 47 on the title? https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/11/politics/lee-zeldin-epa-administrator/index.html The guy Trump picked to run the EPA thinks AI somehow figures into his role. Also he thinks America regaining Energy Dominance (whatever that means. We are currently...
  19. Star Trek General Discussion

    Though it is not clear to me what the intention was at the time. For a long time I assumed that Spock was just doing a hail mary. Possibly his body could be revived or something could be figured out. Shooting his body into space played into Harve Bennett's obsession with Horatio Hornblower...
