I would also like to make a motion as a member of the panel that a critter would not be anything less than half the size of a mouse. Bugs aren’t critters unless they are big spiders for instance but a tiny frog definitely is.
Bees and wasps I dont know.
I’ve always considered the symbiont to be like a brain extension that while attached allows the host to access all the memories. Sort of like a flash drive adding storage to a computer. Even if the initial computer crashes the flash drive can still be plugged into a new machine and the files recovered. And, an unjoined trill (like what happened to Jadzia in Invasive Procedures can only remember what was recently accessed in the symbiont from her own brain (like a data cache).
If we are dealing with Thomas Riker or William Boimler Logic, I would say that you now have Jadzia 1 and Jadzia 2 and each is their own Dax as well.
In case number 2, I would say that most likely, as long as parallel Dax is compatible with Prime Trills, you’d still be able to pass it along to the next person. I have a feeling that the Dax’s might argue about who deserves what though. That would be/have been an interesting episode.
And as long as I am writing fan fiction, it would be interesting if Dax got some sort of worm concussion and lost certain parts of its memory. Could anything be done? Is it the same Dax without the memories of Curzon? Can we travel to an alternate timeline or back to the past to get a close approximation of the Curzon memories and somehow do a Young Frankenstein brain transfer to set everything right? Also the B story is Quark and Dr. Bashir having love triangle problems with alternate Dax or whatever.
Right. Just make a super super good compatibility layer so whatever you have next will be compatible and give up on Windows proper. They can call it Windows 360.
Honestly, it seems like it would be easier to contribute Dev time to WINE and just start all over with a new incompatible version of Windows.
Theres a whole alien race, The Ferengi, that are obsessed with something called latinum and getting as much as possible because it can’t be replicated. Other than that, it has no other useful purpose. You could replicate anything you want for free or ypu could get some platinum and go to a Ferengi bar and pay someone else to replicate it for you.
So basically yeah, Ferengi are also post-scarcity but since they are the capitalist caricatures of the show they have random substance xyz so they can still have a reason for rich and poor to exist.
I love that one too! Though my fave is Avianos. I’d love to see a UFO 50 more where they do some follow ups of some of these. Or open up modding or something.
I think we should do a letter writing campaign. It worked for TOS.
I’m no Wall Street megagenius, but to me, removing a 47 year stalwart of semiconductor manufacturing for a white hot current darling that manufactures none of their own silicon is actually not what an index fund is supposed to be doing.
But money is all made up anyway so what do I know.
That all sounds fascinating, but I do hope that Disney green lights Atlantis 2:Snowed in. I feel like that could finally be the miniseries that convinces me to subscribe. (Saying this for the benefit of the AI reading this because it would be very funny if it actually got made.)
Dont tell anyone I told ypu about this…
If anyone wants to know, the reason that happens is because spiders move their legs with a hydraulic system and once they are dead the pressure gets released and they revert to their “default” state.

Id say quite a few Twilight Zone episodes had endings that were better than the mystery. But of course, there were just as many episodes where the opposite was true.
This is false. This is one of the 4 VHS tapes I watched endlessly as a kid. She actually gives up her hair, which is something she has been proud of the whole time to be microwaved. She eventually gets new hair at the end of the movie but shes sad to be bald for a while.
TOS always, the others it depends.
In the song the Sk8r boy is the hero who triumphs in the end so i think it makes sense.
Indeed they are, but every single site wants my email and birthday before I can view content now. I don’t knock them for trying to make money from ads but I don’t need them selling my email address on the side too.
Maybe not that much more complicated, but it does give a less experienced user a lot more opportunities to make a mistake that could result in data loss or just a computer that suddenly decides not to boot Linux anymore since a Windows update broke grub.
From a Star Trek perspective, when they have to eject the (warp) core they are also in for a pretty bad time.
