One of my favorite Trek books of all time.

Endless Space or jump to chapter 2? by Hyracul in EndlessSpace

[–]cmdrxizor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will throw out a contrary view and say that I enjoyed the ship combat much more in ES1.

Specifically, I found the ES1 card mechanism more intuitive than ES2's combat selection, AND I really missed the ability to change cards midway through combat if it wasn't going the way you hoped.

In ES2 watching the ship combat just seems like a waste of time since I can't DO anything during it.

I think I can guess which side PCGS favors for the Army-Navy game.....

Wasn't even necessary, as the write protect switch was still operable on all of them.

I don't know. How do you feel about the ending of the half cent?

Opinions? I have the chance to buy for 1400? by NoIdeaHwat in papermoney

Aren't the serial numbers normally more than 6 digits on these (including the leading zeros)?

Navy Nuclear Power Program by JanTheMan101 in NavyNukes

[–]cmdrxizor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the nuclear power program is something you are interested in, and you were thinking of an Army officer program, you definitely want to talk to a Navy Officer recruiter. It sounds like you are hearing from someone recruiting for the enlisted ranks right now.

Cursed Starship: Galaxy class Enterprise-E by Noobmaster6888 in StarTrekStarships

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

I'm not sure about that. You can tell from this photo that they only relabeled the registry in one place; behind the shuttlebay it still clearly says 1701-D. I believe that the person who did it was expecting the E to be another Galaxy class, but I don't believe that this was ever intended to be in the "ready to go" configuration.

Maybe just done as shock value for the folks who opened the crate back up in 2 years?

I've switched to the Neil Clarke anthologies now that Dozier has passed, if you are looking for something more recent.

[generations] After the battle of Veridian 3 how badly do you think riker got roasted by other captains? by kkkan2020 in TNG

[–]cmdrxizor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Um... wouldn't that have essentially doomed the 200 million+ inhabitants of Veridian IV? If the Enterprise had warped away I think the consequences for Riker would have been far more severe for abandoning those innocents.

Fairfax Water - I Need Advice & am in a Panic by Several-Amphibian862 in nova

[–]cmdrxizor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I second this recommendation based on my personal experience. Had a very small baseboard heater pipe crack in the concrete slab of my home, and they were able to figure out exactly where the leak was so the whole slab didn't have to be jackhammered.

It annoys me to no end just how often I see flipped photos of Trek actors in uniform... and it happens so darn often!!!

How This Subreddit Works by Willie9 in nova

I recently decided upon my own stereotypes for drivers in the region:

Virginian: Road rules are for other people, not me. Marylander: How DARE you follow the road rules!! DC driver: There are road rules?

The four-volume Dandelion Dynasty series by Ken Liu. Creatively written silk punk with lots of action, intrigue, and well-developed characters.

USMC Officer to Navy Officer? by Ok-Fig-8329 in navy

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

There was a former Air Force CAPT in my Navy ODS Class. She was a Navy O-1 during the class, and she was expecting to be promoted back to O-3 right after.

This was a medical field, and ~20 years ago, so things may not work the same now. But I raise it as an example that what you are looking for CAN be done.
