“Home Improvement”
You don’t remember Tim the Tool Man Taylor rebuilding the Enterprise D in his garage?
TNG aired in 1987, so it's only 37 years. Whomever it was that wrote that headline stretched a bit to generate some extra clicks. Yeah, TAS ended in 1974, but there's still 13 years in between where there was no Star Trek, which is apparently getting lumped into the Star-Trek-that-Riker-has-shown-up-in bundle.
In my opinion, I think some people would ascribe value to authentic luxury goods.
For example a bottle of genuine Chateau Picard. Why go to all the trouble of growing, harvesting, and fermenting the grapes when you can just snap at a replicator, *"Wine, Bordeaux, room temperature!" and have it materialize one for you?
Or, in "Captain's Holiday" Riker asks Picard to purchase for him a Horga'hn while on Risa. Granted, this is a bit of subterfuge to try and get Picard laid, but from Picard's perspective, Riker is asking for a genuine artifact of something he could likely easily replicate aboard the ship. Compare that to Quark in "Let He Who Is Without Sin" who likely doesn't care about the authenticity of the experience, and saves a few credits by having Horga'hns already when they on the way, likely replicated on the runnabout ahead of time.
Yes, this is definitely a very real tweet from PIC seasons two and three showrunner, Terry Matalas, made in 2013.
$150 for Data, you don’t want to know how much it cost to get Lore.
Suddenly I have a theory of where the Borg assimilated their cable management abilities from.
They're travel mugs for commuting and driving. The wide base means it's less likely to tip over and spill. They were produced before the widespread adoption of cupholders in vehicles.
Gotta be honest, I'm not really too upset that Disney doesn't own Star Trek....
Man, I love the bit where Archer is already force feeding Trip a plate of shit for giving a person kept in sexual slavery a glimpse of a better life, and to add insult to injury he's all, "And on top of it all, now the Vissian couple will have to wait to be able to conceive."
Archer is the worst captain.
Well, I guess we need to shut the forum down seeing as there isn’t going to be a better meme at any point.
If you like old school adventure games, the TNG game, "A Final Unity" was great, but sadly isn't available on any platform I'm aware of these days.
And the recent game, "Resurgence", was good if you like TellTale style narrative games.
So many Klingons, and still no raktajino.
It’s a building specifically for housing a vehicle.
