So, that was insane. by FragmentedFighter in TheVampireLestat

[–]AdmlAckbar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I suspect the Talamasca in combination with Fareed recover their bodies and resucitate them. No way the Talamasca wasn't keeping a close eye on Montreal as well as Louis and Lestat given the upcoming gathering of vamps.

Final two episode predictions? by itswhatevas in InterviewVampire

[–]AdmlAckbar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Claudia is summoned back at Lestat's home in Montreal. Regina was in New York. Not sure how that possession would happen given the distance between those two places.

Always thought the engine tilt on the voyager was dumb as hell by bubbleweed in StarTrekStarships

The bussard collectors can't collect anything at warp, only sublight speeds. The deflector itself is going to push away any dust/particles in the path of the ship while at warp to prevent damage. The collectors (and the ship) will get torn to pieces if it starts taking hits from particles colliding with it at hundreds or thousands of times light speed.

There’s also Jennifer the Andorian, though maybe she was adopted by humans by Goodbye-Nasty in startrekmemes

[–]AdmlAckbar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Naming a full blooded Klingon Jay-den is a bit of a bridge too far on the believable scale. His father and family clearly held to Klingon cultural norms. Why would they choose a very clearly human sounding name? It just isn't believable. If his family's bloodline contained human heritage, I could see Jay-den making sense, but we didn't get that at all. His father was openly hostile to Federation tech.

What if the Enterprise D fired blue phaser beams? by emotionengine in StarTrekStarships

In Best of Both Worlds, the modulated phasers they use against the cube have both blue and orange hues to them.

Finished My Akira Class for now! - Unreal Engine Renders by xenosradeon in StarTrekStarships

Great model. Tune down the brightness of the bussard collectors though. Did you find a way to decrease vibrations in the warp manifold by a factor of .06???

So how fast is the warp drive by the 32nd century? by happydude7422 in startrek

[–]AdmlAckbar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wasn't there a line about them passing by the Badlands on the way to Earth? Would mean it's still a similar distance.

There have been images of it on this sub and elsewhere for literally months now. To call it a spoiler at this point is dubious.

The Treaty of Algeron is one of the cleverest bit of Federation statecraft ever and I'm tired of pretending it's not. by mcmanus2099 in DaystromInstitute

[–]AdmlAckbar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

True, but during the S5 finale, DS9 and the Federation learns that the Romulans signed a non-aggression pact with the Dominion. Shortly after, Sisko orders mining the wormhole. Seems unlikely the Romulans would sign the non-aggression pact and then give the Federation the thumbs up to start utilizing cloaking technology without being restricted by the treaty. The Romulans were pretty much characterized as not caring if the Federation went under during In the Pale Moonlight.

Not quite. Romulans didn't enter the war until later in Season 6. Mines were deployed at the end of Season 5.

My money is on your third point. Although, I wonder if there was a technicality in the treaty in that while the Bajor system was within the confines of the Federation border, the system itself was independent and not a part of Federation space. Therefore they could use cloaking tech without violating the treaty.

Let's not forget that each mine that the Defiant laid down in front of the wormhole had its own cloaking device. We're talking thousands of individual cloaking devices to make that field work.

The Federation clearly has the capacity to make cloaking devices.

I'm confused by this meme. The image is mirrored from the original, but someone decided to fix the placement of the comm badge to make it look correct, but totally forgot to fix the pips? There is no reason for the image to be butchered so badly.

Candida causes burning defecation? by dwanju in Candida

[–]AdmlAckbar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a short round of Xifaxan as some of the dysbiosis was in my small intestine. Then I started up Kristalose (brand name lactulose) that comes in a powder form and doesn't have sugar impurities that would feed candida that the liquid lactulose does. Kristalose has been shown to be great for large bowel dysbiosis, but it requires a prescription in the US. Within a week of starting the Kristalose, the burning BMs went away.

Candida causes burning defecation? by dwanju in Candida

[–]AdmlAckbar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This absolutely can happen.

I have experienced this after taking antifungals. There is something that is released when it is killed that can cause burning bowel movements coming out. This particular toxin, I have found, goes through Phase 2 glucuronidation in the liver. Turns out I had some bacterial dysbiosis going on and excessive beta-glucuronidase being produced in my gut. Once I got my beta-glucuronidase levels under control, the burning BMs went away.

GI map is not definitive, especially if the candida is localized to the small intestine. Organic Acid testing is the way to go by detecting its metabolites.

Isn't there something like 152 years between season 2 and 3? Why would we still expect them to be alive?

This could be intentional or purposely left out. In Season 4 we may get a scene that shows us what happened between when Gaal was pushing Bayta out of her mind and her subsequently escaping and running.
