Scorched earth policy which is banned by the Geneva Convention.

What sucks is when the groups and conversations never touch on a single area that you even remotely care about. Ex. Football, trashy TV shows, petty interpersonal dramas.

This is why I more often than not look for a family pet to belly-rub or find some other inanimate object to stare at while I disassociate.

At least Voyager would have nerds to talk to.

The intrepid class is intended to crew about a 150 people and do mostly long term deepspace exploration missions. I imagine that this crew would be 'close' to each other and make liberal use of those holodecks.

This really should be cross-posted to dadjokes.

This is being proposed so that the bot doesn't have to read the entire README file. Humans are supposed to do it but the bot replacing them does not. Makes sense to me.

Surely this will improve code quality for the single most important piece of software in existence today.

All of this performance is wasted on Apple's closed hardware and OS. What a shame.

With the suite of sensors onboard this is the ideal mobile surviellance platform.

Cameras, Lidar creating a 3D map, EM sensors, likely microphones. All circulating all day long under the guise of providing a service that no one needs or asked for while claiming a safety record that is great until it is not.

Google paved the way with this idea when they created streetview maps 15+ years ago...which just so happened to be mapping wifi APs which is totally a necessary part of providing streetviews.

Delegating your security to any other country, like much of the world has done for decades with the US, is never a good idea. Europe did this after WW2 because so much of it was destroyed by war. Allowing the US to continue as their sugar daddy for so long is at least partially on them. Canada is feeling the sting of this too right now.

If a country can't provide for most of its own needs in terms of goods, services and energy, it has no real sovereignty.

Is this the nu-Trek reboot of the original? This is definitely the level of sophistication that I've come to expect from it.

I was never bothered by Wesley. I might be the only one who wasn't, apparently.

No it is not a military vessel. It is an exploration vessel. That is the core mission. Not sure how anyone who has actually watched StarTrek miss this key point.

These weapons have existed in various forms as far back as the 1960's. Missles, lasers and satellites designed to attack other satelittes. Someone must be trying for a promotion.
