Bonus

Picard: he became part of the past (First Contact)

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 1 points 11 hours ago

Okay, what I meant was, Geordi did use one.

But yeah, this is clearly Sisko but I don’t recall him shaving his head in any scenes.

Picard: he never exceeded or failed but he was in a loop a few times (“Time Squared”, “Cause and Effect”, “All Good Things…”)

Sisko: he was always behind and sometimes stuck in the future (“Past Tense Part I and II”, “Trials and Tribble-ations”, “Children of Time”)

Janeway: she was always behind and ahead of her time and some times speeding ahead (“Future’s End Part I and Part II”, “Timeless”, “Blink of an Eye”, “Relativity”, “Endgame”)

So Wesley is Tim in this scenario. Is Barclay the Nedry?

It was Geordi. He was shaving a beard.

It actually does look like the big room in the convention center at Rio. I say this as someone who went there once last year.

Unless the Internet is lying, I’m pretty sure Darren knew Sinatra.

We just gonna forget about TAS? Season 1 is 16 episodes at 384 minutes. Season 2 is even less with 6 episodes at 144 minutes. That’s just 8 hours, 48 minutes.

You can listen to the full song. It’s on the volume 1 score.

I think this might be a joke for those fluent in Klingon. The song at the end of “We’ll Always Have Tom Paris” is described by Mariner as having lyrics about a dude who eats their own hand. That song is titled “batlh vIpoQ!”. The lyrics have nothing do do with that. Just a dude saying he demands honor over and over.

Okay, but which Defiant are we comparing this to? NCC-1764, NX-74205, or NX-74205?

 

For those unaware, Garrett Wang has discussed many times that on his way to his Voyager audition, he almost ran over Harrison Ford at Paramount Studios.

Dirty Laundry is a game show on Dropout where guest (mainly comedians) drink cocktails and guess each other’s secrets.

EDIT: Just to be clear, this wasn’t Garrett, and that isn’t a secret. And no one brings that up.

New Key West Tourism Ad (startrek.website)
submitted 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) by hopesdead@startrek.website to c/tenforward@lemmy.world
 

Heard a tourism ad for Key West, Florida which has the line “There’s only one road into Key West[…]” on The D-Con Chamber podcast. This is where my mind went.

 

EDIT: For anyone doubting the validity of a YouTube channel, Ellie Littlechild and Seán Ferrick are people that attend Trek events. I met Seán at STLV last year. On top of this they have interviewed Mulgrew. While this news is unconfirmed as Ellie stated, Seán relayed this information second hand from Star Trek: The Cruise, which featured the cast of Voyager for its 30th anniversary.

Changes in Vulcan Beliefs (startrek.website)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by hopesdead@startrek.website to c/daystrominstitute@startrek.website
 

Did Syrran’s teachings change the accepted spiritual and philosophical ideology of mainstream Vulcan society? ENT had the unique position of being a prequel to TOS. It at first presented mind-melds as a deviant act that was socially unacceptable. Moving into the 23rd century of TOS and the movies (I’m going on recall right now), the deviance seemed to have gone away. However the dangers of mind-melds held true even by the time of VOY. When ENT reached the three parter of “The Forge”, “Awakening” and “Kir’Shara”, the story specifically focused on katras.

It feels like the direction ENT was pointed, the people in charge of the big lore wanted to flip what we knew about Vulcan society. One of the major conflicts over the course of the series was the Earth-Vulcan relationship. Of course this was rooted in the Federation arch.

To clarify my question: did the rebellious teachings of a cult (T’Pol specifically calls the Syrrannites a “violent cult”), become the accepted beliefs over a century?

 

This special announcement comes after previously announcing Bruce Greenwood (Captain Pike) and Jennifer Morrison (Winona Kirk) from ST09 for the convention.

 

Various ticket packages are available (which mainly include access to the park itself). Tickets start at $74 (Sunday dates), $79 (Friday dates) and $84 (Saturday dates).

If you are interested in cosplaying, the website has a list of restrictions. The ones I noted that would apply to Trekkies are no phasers, no balloons (I saw a person with balloons at STLV), or service animals in costume/part of costume (I saw this too at STLV). So please read the list before dressing up.
