tribute to the Abrams car chase

In “Space Seed,” Spock also says that records from Khan’s time are spotty, so the possibility of him getting the dates off by a few decades was already kind of woven into the original story.

I think you got your best and worst options reversed.

we culminated with what George [Lucas] was creating,

Also, how is a human, a species that could barely reach it’s own moon just a decade ago, going to find a suitable planet? In all honesty, Fury should have asked Carol if she knew of any interstellar body who could help, like maybe Nova or even Asgard (before Ragnarok).

He wasn’t XO of the Enterprise, he was on the Farragut, then was promoted to captain of the Enterprise.

Other than the option of selling it to another streamer, I still don’t really understand how this makes them money. One the one hand, it is sitting on a server somewhere with thousands of other shows, taking up barely a blip of a percentage of the space they have. It is essentially no-cost to them. Or am I missing…

Latest news:

I assume the reason there are no intermediate sized black holes is because, despite their apparent similarities to us, stellar black holes and supermassive black holes are two different beasts. Supermassive black holes did not grow from stellar black holes, they formed via some other process that was probably due to…

Why not both?

Is there a reason cables won’t work on the moon? Seems to me, the easiest option, especially figuring in the robotic construction, would be to build a solar panel field, then send the electricity over a cable, you know, like we do on Earth.

We wouldn’t know for 600 years or so, because that is how long it takes the light from the star to reach us. We can’t see what’s happening until the light from it reaches us.

At some point, ChatGPT will have, or has, generated enough convincingly human text that it could probably just train on itself, an AI feedback loop, thereby beginning the process of finally making humans obsolete.

It seems to me that if you wait until the end of the deck, you have a lot of information, and thus could have much better odds of winning.

I’ve always assumed that most miscarriages are just due to defects in the fertilized egg. Fertilization is not a fool-proof process, errors happen and the fertilized egg is unable to properly develop.

As I was reading this, I imagined a Pixar-esque movie about a microbe that swims to close to a vent and is spewed into space, before being rescued by other microbes that have developed their own space-faring society, living on ice chunks floating around Saturn.

I was just thinking that him being the mentor to Miles would be the obvious way to go and complete the circle...but I like where you are, making this another, say, 3 movies, where he works as an equal to other heroes, then begins to mentor someone himself, then maybe retires or otherwise is unable to be Spider-Man,…

If they can keep up with collecting these fees, they can display them. It really doesn’t seem that hard, since they are already doing all the difficult parts, now it’s just the part they don’t like. And too bad for them.

This is all well and good. I doubt it will work, either it will be easy to circumvent, or it will be so onerous that it will be quietly rescinded.
