Outside of cultures where it means something, why do people slurp things?

Talking about Americans drinking coffee and stuff.

I don't get it.

The repair shop is a neat show.

But it's "80% background story and emotional impact of the item being repaired" and "20% the item being repaired"

I want exactly the reverse of those ratios.

But it's okay for them to not make things for me.

Bringing back Limewire to illegally rip copies of reporting suppressed by the government is definitely some cyberpunk shit

This explains a lot, i think.

*slow clap*. Good one, you got me there.

IT confuses me why people, even trans people, call the normal effects of hormones "side effects" - this is especially true for T

"facial hair is a side effect of testosterone"
"lowered voice is a side effect..."

no, these things are just what testosterone does to a human.

It's really strange.

There's a bird outside the window.

Yeah, This truck is ok.

(I know, terrible joke)

The sulu and bell helicopter thing was an example of how it's done.

Sulu was a history buff, and knew this stuff.

He lied using the truth "in my academy days"

The other guy had a good joke "this is old to you.."

Anyhow, rant over, I still liked it.

Save the whales, y0!

But wow some things don't age well.

They would understand that breaking into a military aircraft carrier is exactly the same as breaking into the starship enterprise without authorization.

They wouldn't wander around space dock going "warp reactors? where do I find warp reactors?" He would 100% understand that is suspicious.

They wouldn't understand pub trans system, yeah, legit.

Getting kicked off a bus for not exact change, yeah, classic tourist stuff there.

The instruction should have bene "Act like a tourist" not "Act like an idiot"

Chekov's reaction to everything was just silly.

Starfleet is a pseudo military organization, and he's an officer.

Everything about Nuclear Vessels was cringe. They just wanted to make a joke based on his accent.

These two would absolutely wander around trying to figure out how to get to alameda

MCCOY TIME TRAVELED BEFORE. City on the Edge of Forever anyone? He can play the game.

Are they trying to hide future tech or aren't they?

Tech that will cure a brain injury and dude walks off the table? Giving a woman a pill that regrows her kidneys.

But we can't let them see you beam us up?

And arguing with these people about state of technology? McCoy would understand!

They can be beamed out of a hospital elevator

They cannot be beamed out of a hospital operating room.

For some reason. Secrecy I guess?

Put the docs in the room, put something in front of the window, and beam 'em back to the ship so mccoy can work on chekov

They just wanted a chase scene. Okay!

But yeah, niche applications are complex and obtuse - they often have ridiculous learning curves because they are so niche.

I can think of 10, and none of them are remotely intuitive in any way.

Also, offering a plant manager a formula that would be a game changer that would revolutionize the world in exchange for a few sheets of 6 inch thick plexiglas.

WHAT.

That should be sus on every level.

It's either fake and you are getting scammed. Or the person offering it to you is a fool.

Scotty with the "Computer'' line, is kind of funny.

Then he takes a Macintosh Plus and starts buzzing around on a keyboard in some sort of chemistry application he has never used in an instant, to put in the formula for transparent aluminum.

As someone who works with computers, no.. just no..
December 7, 2025 at 2:40 PM
I still like it though. I forgive it. :)
December 7, 2025 at 2:30 PM
Kirk and Spock are fine. Even Sulu is fine.

The rest of the crew are acting like complete idiots at points for no reason.

I get not understanding the culture of the 1980s, even the tech, but they understand that they are time travelers and could fake it so much better than that.

I rewatched Star Trek IV The Voyage Home last night in bed.

I've always said 2 or 6 are my favorite TOS trek films, and was amused by 4.

But wow, the writing is... so cringe.... Plenty of stuff is done for gags that don't make sense.

I saw some that had taken pictures of some actor in various roles.

Then used AI to have the actor walking from one to the next, changing clothes into the next costume.

That was clearly taking someone else work, stealing it, and making it clickbait. That made me mad for the theft.

But this ugh.

It's crimes against humanity all the way down.

Like I have seen some people make videos that are innocent with a goal of being entertaining.

But it was never going to stay here.
