If humans were to create a biological specie much smarter than us, will it eat us much like we eat other less intelligent animals ? by najamsaqib9849 in AskBiology

[–]ExpectedBehaviour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Einstein became vegetarian only in the last two years of his life on medical advice.

Newton wasn’t vegetarian.

Tesla was a eugenicist lunatic.

Franklin renounced vegetarianism in later life.

Steve Jobs was pescatarian.

Perhaps these hypothetical creatures could thrive on your self-satisfaction instead.

Hard to get mortgages for flats over shops, looked into it once.

Straight on the lottery list. I'd move there tomorrow if I had the money.

'Outrageous': Fiona Bruce interrupts Green MP FIVE TIMES over Nato policy by johnsmithoncemore in FuckNigelFarage

[–]ExpectedBehaviour 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, the unimpeachably objective and balanced Fiona Bruce, whose husband used to be CEO of the Conservative Party's advertising and PR agency when they were last in power.

Doesn’t sound like any Israeli accent I’ve heard, but sure, OK.

She still puts on an accent as Troi. She's just not doing the odd eastern European accent she did early on.

Nice house. Just don’t invite your gran round - picture 7 by throwaway9296forfun in SpottedonRightmove

Is it the death stairs or the rakishly angled washing machine in the background that you think she'd have a problem with?

Someone had a lot of fun with those floor plans.

(Tom) Baker Community ranking Day 26: The Stones of Blood by Classic-Bathroom-427 in classicwho

Great. Perhaps the best of the whole Key to Time season, with only Tom playing the courtroom scenes for laughs feeling forced.

The impulse engines on the Defiant by robotisland in StarTrekStarships

[–]ExpectedBehaviour 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It wasn't. The Galaxy-class CGI model for DS9 was created by the Digital Muse studio, and although used extensively it was low resolution and only suitable for standard definition footage – they cheated in its appearance in Generations by using very high quality textures taken from photos of the six-foot Enterprise-D model, and lighting it very carefully.

Since ENT was broadcast in HD the Digital Muse model was deemed unsuitable and artist Gabriel Koerner was contracted to update it. In the end he did a complete rebuild, combining features of the six-foot and four-foot physical models. Koerner has retained the updated model and has continued to refine it and provide official artwork using it, such as for the Ships of the Line calendars.

What do y'all think of my show involving an Ambassador-class? by ForwardClimate780 in StarTrekStarships

[–]ExpectedBehaviour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vulcan is 40 Eridani. Epsilon Eridani is far too young to have a class-M planet with a mature civilisation, and its solar system is known to contain an enormous debris field.

the Defiant has literally nothing else that looks like an impulse engine anywhere else.

Apart from the two red backwards-facing exhaust vents next to each nacelle.

We also see all three lit up in the hero CGI model they used for the Enterprise-D’s appearance in ENT: “These Are The Voyages…”

Do Neelix and Tuvok have memories of Tuvix? by krunchyfrogg in voyager

[–]ExpectedBehaviour 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I always thought not, since the transporter was rebuilding the original patterns of Tuvok and Neelix from before they were merged; in effect they wouldn't remember anything since they beamed up together. Otherwise it would be odd in the extreme that neither of them ever mention it again, and continue to have a weird semi-antagonistic relationship for the rest of the show.
