Stallman is right about all his free software takes except his take that commercial free software is acceptable.

(He also has a very bad take about they/them pronouns)

That could be done better with a campaign of targeted assassinations

There are other ways to watch Voyager

We’ve had a Trek version of Stellaris for a while in the New horizons mod

One thing I really like about the depiction of the Kaylon is that, as far as I remember, nobody ever suggests that they were wrong to kill their builders, only to generalize their hatred of those builders to all organics.

Capitalists will really report not getting as much more money as they wanted to as a loss

Malloy is a stalker and a rapist in that timeline, it’s good that Mercer went back and prevented it.

Neelix goes around handing people PADDs of their mail but that’s because Neelix is terrible not because of any technological necessity.

Starman Jones is the most extreme example of that I know of. They have slipstick boys to do their FTL math and the MC’s special ability is that he memorized all the log tables and so he can do the math faster.

Amazing how much technology since the 60s has just been trying to make star trek props real

Department of Temporal Investigations listening to the Beastie Boys’ Intergalactic like it’s Louie Louie and they’re J. Edgar Hoover
