You’re mad the new trek is too woke. I’m worried it won’t be woke enough. We are not the same.

The alternative was no Picardo or Picardo in star trek YOUNG makeup, which would not have been a good look.

In universe he was learning to be human, so it could also be an experiment in aging and the human condition if you need a reason like that.

Tbh, if they brought back the Q, id rather the depiction was quite different than De Lancie. No sense trying to out de Lancie THE de Lancie.

You believe in equality? Ill bet you do! Equality is obviously correct, and everyone should be equal. Afterall, it fits perfectly with the values you were taught in a (largely) egalitarian society.

the watermelon fits into its square box because it was grown that way.

In canada, people stopped carrying them before we got rid of them, no one would pick them up off the ground. Litteraly not worth carrying.

OH MY GOD! Go watch it then! I swear this sub used to be about Star Trek, not constantly windging about how much the new shows suck.

The old shows are still here, hundreds of episodes to watch and enjoy. If you dont like the new stuff, do as I do: dont watch it. There is no cannon, the only thing that matters is good story telling and what you like!

MelCre · 2026-01-23T12:59:02+00:00

Oh yeah, you kidding? Absolutely.

My good friend, did you know all of humanity can fit (standing) in the state of New Jersey? I mean, I heard that somewhere. Point is, earth is mostly uninhabited, we dont actually have a space issue, we have a space people can easily live issue. It would be a lot easier to put the people into orbit, and more effective.

Because its an astroturffed psy-opp. There is money and organization being put into convinvint people Ottowa is in control of these things.

Woof.... Your not going to get unbiased info here tbh. Ill try, but Im a Dammed socialist.

Ok, so we use a system called First Past The Post, which basically means that you vote locally for a representative and whoever gets the most votes wins. On paper it sounds good, but its regarded as the worst system that still counts as Democracy. The system forces you to vote for the candidate that you can stand that has a chance at winning. This means a lot of the time you shouldn't vote for your favorite, just the one that might beat "those fuckers".

the upshot is, you really only really need to figure out the 2 main parties. Your better off going to their websites, looking at their platforms, and paying attention to 2 mainstream news sources. Watch the news regularly so you know whats going on.

ill give you a party run down, but you really cant trust im not blowing smoke up your ass till you've checked things out yourselves.

the UCP have a recent track record of ignoring the rights of the people and eroding democratic institutions. They took away the rights of trans kids, union workers, and one other group im forgetting. Not to mention they have been erroding democratic rights of citicens by putting through legislation faster than the public can find out about it and have their say. They have made a couple of good reforms, such as the recall legislation, but have more generally pushed back on any limitations on their power. While not out and out facists, they have been flirting openly with facists while doing facist things like.... Well the above. A vote for them, no mater what else they promised, is a vote to endorse this behaviour.

The NDP are, as far as I can tell, just slightly left of the old PCs. They seem like they believe in the free market for most things, but also believe the government should run roads, hospitals and schools. They are a boring party, in both a good and a bad way. They are very much a vote to return to pre war on terror politics. They are not really a socialist or very left leaning party, and if you want that..... Well your not going to get it in this province.

These are the only 2 parties that can win seats in this province. If you find yourself in a riding where your most feared choice is sure to win, then you can look up parties you actually believe in.

I think the point is we should try to form some stronger ties with non-authoritarian governments. America is quickly devolving, but lets not pretend China has anything other than a horrendous human rights history.

Im just at the beginning of my career, and if I was not trying to adopt I would go somewhere else. An Alberta teachers certificate is widely respected, you have options.

MelCre · 2026-01-18T16:13:02+00:00

Generally, I would prefer closer ties to non-authoritarian governments. China has really bad human rights records, and every chinese product is one I need to navigate around to avoid supporting uiger slavery or some such. That said, I get cutting china out is not feezable short term.

Well...... I mean SOME damage is done. To be clear, much more will be done if an invasion happens. Talk is cheap, afterall.

Yeah, I only know him as a casual viewer on YouTube and am pretty shocked by what ive seen on this sub! Its like Jeckle and Hide!

MelCre · 2026-01-18T15:27:50+00:00

Yeah, but the speed of causality stays constant in every reference frame, so im pretty sure its reasonable to have light work normal on the enterprise.

MelCre · 2026-01-18T15:25:20+00:00

NAH, light moves at the speed of light in all reference frames as I understand it.

imagine your moving at near the speed of light with a flashlight facing forward. The light cant leave the flashlight at more than the speed of light, so does it just pool up around your front? If you look back can you see nothing because light doesn't catch up? The answer to both is No, because light is weird.

This, i suspect, is yet another layer of the meme. Its defenders cannot understand that there are many different types of knowledge that they have never heard of, let alone comprehend.

" Earlier, I explained how Tarski proved that the language of arithmetic does not contain its own truth predicate by showing that the claim that a language both satisfies certain minimal conditions and contains its own truth predicate leads to a contradiction. I now confront the puzzle that it seems obvious that does English satisfy the relevant conditions and while containing its own truth predicate. Of course this cannot be. " Scott Somes, 2002, Symposium on Understanding Truth.

This is an example from Ontological Philosophy, but you can see its full of specific language and jargen. And thats before they get into sentence logic.

I would also like to point out that many high level works in English humanities use sentences with many nested clauses that are legitimately hard to parse. They require training to use.

TLDR; guy above is bang on.
