The Roku box was one of the good ones… about ten years ago. Though maybe this is just a TV thing. TIL Roku makes actual screens.

In the past few years especially, I’ve seen so many unshakable “good ones” go bad. Some, in the worst possible way.

Whatever they said, Warp 9.975 is NOT the maximum sustainable speed of an Intrepid-class starship. It’s the maximum possible speed… for a few hour at best, before the warp core needs to be powered down to prevent everything from melting.

It’s not a stretch to assume that the initial 75-year estimate was based on average sustainable speed and taking into account time needed to stop, refuel, maintain, repair, etc. Over that long a time, it wouldn’t be enough to just pour more deuterium into it. Most of the warp engine would have to be rebuilt or replaced.

Also, the computer was struggling to figure out exactly where they were, so it might have been off by a few years at first. When Seven built astrometrics, they immediately updated their ETA.

You do not want the lizard prince to touch your nuts.

Looks kinda Discoprise to me.

What’s more threatening? A phaser-sized starship or a starship-sized phaser?

May your portfolio flourish this commercial season.

I heard a more snarky version:

“For every safety feature there’s a corpse with an interesting story.”

“Why miss, you’re absolutely glowing today!”

Yo, is that second picture Mustafar?

Hazing at that school was out of control.

Only 27?

You’re a normal, functional person.

One of the things that makes TNG so good is that they had, not one, but two main actors trained in classical theater. Spiner being one of them.

Difficult to tell when he’s playing an android, but every single time he was allowed to express emotion it filled the screen.

“For reasons we cannot understand, she has lost the will to live.”

Drebin: “Have you tried telling her not to be sad?”

“Take the shot, Carter!”

When you think about it, everyone cardios to failure eventually.

The moment apple releases a mouse that can be used while charging, it will be impossible to even resell the current model.

Cook is going to let the Christmas rush flush as much of the channel out as possible and then rev the accessories in the spring.

One of the best cliffhangers in television history.

After killing Yar, and no widespread internet access, people really thought Picard was going to die.

“She’s on the roof.”
