Don't drag Sulu or Takai's good name through the mud like this.

He looks like his rap album was never picked up by a label and still only has 15 listens on Spotify.
No, there was that one episode of DS9 about selling weapons that firmly cemented that Quark would be disgusted by Elon Musk and not want to be associated with him.
Phasers don't work?
"PORT SIDE CANNONS, FIRE!!"
(Can you imagine what a broadside attack from a Galaxy-class starship would look like?)
.mkv files are just containers with a bunch of separate files inside. You can theoretically hide any kind of file inside, including an executable, so it might just be a blanket warning.
First and foremost, don't feel pressured to get a new hand tablet with a ten-lense DSLR stapled to the front every single year.
I know Straits only used a picture of an iPhone to get more clicks, but Apple is the least of the offenders when it comes to this. iOS 17 runs on phones released six years ago (including the last iPod touch!), and security updates go a couple years further back than that. I wish Android phones could guarantee that kind of lifespan.
Battery replacement sucks on every smartphone except for obscure modular phones that suddenly lose support or the company goes out of business. But the newest iPhone actually makes it easier to replace the battery (read: still sucks a bit). So, while you have to jump through hoops, you can replace the battery on every smartphone (usually through official channels, but also by other means if needed).
What needs to happen is the masses need to be taught that it's okay to keep your phone for a few years. Phones need to regarded like cars. Drive it until you can't, THEN get a new car. And when you do, consider a newer used car. Once that becomes commonplace, then companies will be forced to tone down their release schedules.
That Worf is constantly worried he isn't doing enough makes him a better father than many.
Um, no. It doesn't matter if Back to the Future's writers knew about Star Trek III. It matters if Star Trek IV's writers knew about Back to the Future.
Back to the Future was released in July 1985. Filming for Star Trek IV didn't start until February 1986. It's very believable that the Trek writers knew about Lloyd's role in Back to the Future as they were writing the script for The Voyage Home.
I wonder if the time-travel plot of Star Trek IV was subconsciously planted.
Star Trek III was released in 1984, Back to the Future was released in 1985, Star Trek IV was released in 1986.
Did the writers watch Back to the Future, remember that Lloyd was in Star Trek III, and unknowingly self-suggest they write a time travel story?
