There is an episode later where Data defends the rights of a less-human-looking artificial life (the one with exocomps), though no courtroom scenes.
I think most star trek episodes can be torn apart pretty easily - I actually enjoy pointing out errors while I watch. But it's good drama and themes with fun characters in an optimistic future, which is still a rarity decades later.
Also who says "anyone can become president"? Liars and the gullible, I guess
Yes, it's this one. What a god awful episode.
Are we head canoning Kira as bi now or is she including mirror universe Kira in this? Or maybe I missed something in several watches.
I liked 5 because a few large cities (going tall) was way more viable, which I prefer over making tons of little cities (going wide).
If it's a subcategory of console then it is a console. Otherwise it's like saying a square is not a rectangle because it is a square, or a cat is not a mammal because it is a cat.
That's why I say you are searching for a term for things like the Xbox and Playstation - because it would be useful to have a term for that. Simply "console" is not a good fit imo, but you may disagree.
Ah, that does clarify a lot. You're wanting a term to refer to the Xbox and Playstation class devices since they're in this closely competing realm, but people already have a preconceived notion of what a "console" is (I would consider handheld to be consoles, for example).
It does seem like it would be useful to have a term for those.
The person I was responding to was citing costs accrued for screen and battery as a reasoning for why steam deck is not a console, so I was giving an example (wii u) that contradicts that reasoning.
I don't actually care if you consider the steam deck or wii u or anything is a console or not. My point was that I don't see a concrete definition anywhere in this thread and that maybe a more nuanced view would be appropriate.
Reading through the above comments it seems like goalposts keep moving on what counts as a console. Does the wii u not count as a console because the controller had a screen and the price to performance is poor?
I'm not sure any of you have a concrete definition for a console, and maybe there isn't one. It might be more of a spectrum with open and configurable devices on one end and the more focused devices with walled garden software on the other.
Then you can say that ps5 is more like a console than steam deck is, and steam deck is more like a console than a pc.
Well that's the internet for ya
It was meant as a joke (that could apply to myself as well). I did not mean genuine offense.
It really bothered me that they didn't even mention the doctor, what with seven of nine being there and the ai plotline. But after watching more of Picard, I'm glad they didn't and especially glad they mostly steered clear of ds9.
