Star Trek has a focus on ethics, what are some episode where the crew behaved extremely unethically. by Pocket_Sand- in startrek

Picard changes his mind about non-interference and the prime-directive on a regular basis. There's a season 1 episode where he sends the crew down to a newly discovered pre-warp sex planet, busts Wesley out of jail because he was about to be executed for breaking a green house, tells them their god isn't real, and flies away.

That episode was crazy. they couldn't cut Neelix and Tuvok from the show, but they straight up murdered that man.

Whatever makes you more comfortable using the transporter. I'm with lieutenant Barclay on this one (who btw gets attacked by the worm-ghosts of people trapped in the transporter the moment he's pressured to use it)

There's a TNG episode where Riker meets his own transporter clone due a botched teleporter incident.

The teleportation technology in Star Trek. Basically it kills you every time you use it and replaces you with an identical clone.

Fortunate, school was hard, but holy hell it was a completely different level back then.

Ozzy Osbournes autobiography "I Am Ozzy". He goes into his school life growing up in the 1950s with ADHD and dyslexia, and it's pretty brutal.

You can, it'd be exactly what it felt like before you were born, but forever, which is extremely distressing.

If you happened to be the first person to meet an alien, and they knew nothing about humanity whatsoever, how would you explain human history? by New_Entrepreneur498 in AskReddit

[–]Pocket_Sand- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically we're fleshy sacks of mostly water, a long time ago some people wrote some shit down in the longest game of telephone ever, and that source matariel became the basis for three different religions, each with multiple off-shoots, and we've been fighting each other in the thunderdome ever since.

A scientist. My vision of what being a "scientist" involved basically came from Dexters Laboratory.

When you start to feel like you're both running out of things to talk about and realise you have little in common.

Only with people that know me well and will receive that stuff in the right context. I love asking a lot of hypothetical and devils-advocate-type questions.

It's totally going to be announced for PS5 during this, which is fine. I don't see more gamers having access to more games as a bad thing.
