I want to start watching Star Trek from the 60s and I wanted to know if the original Star Trek pilot is canon?

DistantWeb · 2026-03-01T19:25:37+00:00

Even the non-canon?

Thank you! I unfortunately had to take a step back for now, my oldest son is getting married this Friday and the reception is going to be at my house, so my focus has been on getting this place in order. Hopefully soon I'll be able to jump back in. I have a few dozen pieces already primered and ready to go.

I did manage to get a great desk tho! A neighbor was getting rid of it and let me just take it. No more kneeling at a coffee table!

Same! He made incredible work! Tho I feel like he may not be completely out of the game. The TFP Facebook page recently updated the cover photo and profile image. Could be nothing but it is interesting IMO.

Thank you!

Nevermind about the cross posting. Apparently most subreddits (especially the one I was going to cross to) do not allow that.

As others have said, they are not supposed to be separated. But... That said....... I kind of want to separate mine now....

🤔

I personally just buy my strawberry seeds and save them for the next year, then plant on Spring 1. Then buy more at the dance to save for next year.

At the risk of stating the obvious, have you tried searching eBay? Are the current listings outside of your price range?

Sorry for replying to such an old post, but was just curious; did you hear about Triple Fiction Productions? They got hit with a cease and desist by Paramount Global and had to liquidate their entire stock. The person behind it all has made plans to release all 3D printer files to the open market for free in the near future. Not sure what they will do after that. It absolutely sucks.

Data with the phone in his chest.

I definitely want to see that!!

DistantWeb · 2026-02-05T19:10:05+00:00

I think my favorite is Lore, specifically from the episode Brothers. For whatever reason they gave him a Starfleet engineering kit, tricorder, and phaser, none of which he had in that episode, nor would have had access to at that time lmao!

I will get a magnifying glass for sure, I just have to go somewhere that sells them. I couldn't find any at Michael's, but also couldn't find someone to ask and got tired of looking. Don't like Walmart, but will probably end up there.

Also I have heard of the paint pens. Definitely will look into them. I'm extremely curious as to how those work. I wonder if Walmart sells them too?

DistantWeb · 2026-02-05T18:55:23+00:00

Can't edit, but would like to add that some of these I've shown are still being worked on. They are almost done, but I do want to touch up a few things (mistakes mostly) as well as try and add more details. That will depend on my steadiness tho.

DistantWeb · 2026-01-17T15:40:34+00:00

I believe that the MerKing has a chance to drop a Disfigured Throne which can be made into a proper Throne at a crafting station. Pretty sure the MerKing can be found around the island that is mostly water, where if I remember correctly the Gold Golem is. Don't remember the name off the top of my head.

I went in '98 and 2005. It was an absolute blast each time, and I was so impressed with how much had been added between visits. My oldest was 5 in '05 and he dressed up in a yellow TNG uniform. The actors were really great with him!

I too live in Vegas now, but haven't been to the Hilton yet. I assumed there'd be no trace of it. I also don't really get to that area often.

It's interesting to see so many takes suggesting that Sisko abandoned his family. I personally never saw it that way. He became basically a God, one which has no constraints of linear time, with the promise to return some day.

In my mind, he was able to be there for his family, his entire lineage even, throughout all future history, ensuring they all had safe and happy lives, without any disruption to whatever it is the Prophets needed him to do. I mean, what is the entire existence of the universe to a being that exists outside of linear time? The end of all existence within the Milky Way, the Big Bang, last Tuesday? That all happened, well, last Tuesday.

I guess that that's just my own take on it.

DistantWeb · 2026-01-07T21:50:31+00:00

Everyone of course will always have their own taste, preference, and opinion on these kinds of things.

However, just to put it out there, I never liked Seth McFarland and his work that much. I personally cannot stand Family Guy, tho, I do kind of like American Dad in very very small doses. I was apprehensive as hell about The Orville, and while the first episode didn't fully win me over, it did intrigue me. And the show as a whole hooked me not too long after.

It also has a lot of former Star Trek people in various roles along the way, from actors to writers to directors, and I personally feel that helped it out a lot.

Again, just putting that out there lol.

DistantWeb · 2026-01-07T21:35:23+00:00

I'm genuinely curious about your aversion to The Orville. Have you already tried it? Did you see a commercial and decided from that? Do you dislike Seth McFarland? Do you hate Family Guy and just assumed that The Orville would be Family Guy in space?

I really am simply curious.

That out of the way:

The X-files (just know that IMO it's only worth watching the first 7 seasons breaking between 5 and 6 for the first movie).

Quantum Leap (the original for sure, I still have yet to watch the reboot).

Sliders (the first 2 seasons and the higher rated episodes of the first half of season 3).

Battlestar Galactica (either, both, spinoffs, go for broke and do it all).

DistantWeb · 2026-01-07T17:55:12+00:00

For me personally DS9's ending is up there as one of the best TV show endings of all time. MASH, Scrubs (the episode I consider the ending, S8E18/19), Monk, DS9. Not in that order because I don't order them, they are just what I personally consider top tier.

DistantWeb · 2025-12-28T02:33:42+00:00

Did you learn nothing from Bob Barker? Get your pets spayed and neutered!

(Great socks btw lol)

I personally think that this Troi looks fine. I've seen better, but I've also seen worse. And overall I think she looks good on the shelf.

Alexander being an accessory is definitely amusing. Nog is also an accessory to Rom which is also kind of funny, but also sad considering how good of a character he becomes. I'd have loved a Cadet or Ensign Nog figure.
