Re: Picard - general discussion [spoilers]
I'd have preferred the super synths show up and Picard has to talk everyone out of shooting. Then deal with the issue of the Soong synths being split between leaving with the super synths or staying. Another thought comes to mind, but I'm going to check I'm remembering things correctly first: Which...

Re: Picard - general discussion [spoilers]
First, a word from Irish Romulan MILF https://i.imgur.com/8eninmm.jpg Anyone else notice the blatant racial stereotypes in STP that are straight out of a white supremacist manual? 1) Asians are conniving yellow bastards who can't be trusted, especially the Chinese.

Re: Purge from CAPT Honors fallout continues.
What did you want Thanas as a punishment for Captain Honors? Forty lashs and a months pay? Imprisonment? I'm honestly curious. Other than honorable discharge at a lower rank and a finding of conduct unbecoming. Which is the only fitting finding for somebody making these kinds of videos. Unless of c...

Re: Frat boy Navy captain gets relieved
I have to point out the reason the XO was promoted fairly quickly is more of a reason of Physics, the Enterprise is the only carrier of its type, making the amount of people qualified on it very small, so promoting from within would prove to be cheaper than re-training someone from say a Nimitz clas...

Re: Gundams vs. the Empire
Unless Gundams can traverse the length of the galaxy in a few DAYS, this isn't going to be anything more than a simple mop up job on the part of the Empire. It will just come down to hit and runs and destroying bases, supplies, whatever... before any Gundams can even respond. Also from what I know,...

Re: Yukio Hatoyama Stepping Down As Japan's Prime Minister
This is interesting, as I thought it was that he didn't get rid of the base that killed him, since Okinawa seemed really angry that the base was still taking up a major section of the land. I guess the mainland still would rather have Okinawa serve as the target for missiles, to protect the main isl...

Re: Patented Vitamins
A good example is Aspirin. Aspirin is a drug that had its patent expire when my GRANDMOTHER was a young child, and yet Bayer still has commercials, on NATIONAL TELEVISION for it even today. If the thing works, they will push it forever, and ever.

Re: EA games decides they're not hated enough
This makes sense because frankly Gamestop is carving into video game makers profits. If they can sell the same console game half a dozen times, they can make several times as much money as the maker of that game. If I go out and buy EA Generic Sports 2011 new, Gamestop gets a cut of that profit. If...

I always thought this might be a workable explanation for dubious clonetrooper tactics in AOTC. Yes, they've been training, but who trained the trainers?
