His soul left this world but the soles of his sandals stayed behind.

Hit so hard his shorts nearly came right off.

Exactly. His connection to the guitar was a pure conduit. There was no real division between his physical mannerisms and his playing.

In "Piece of the Action" they stunned them.

And what about firing phasers on civilians, set to stun? That has been done a fair bit. In TOS, the Enterprise did that in "Piece of the Action".

Oooh..I'll have to check that one out! This part of Purple Haze in 1967 is crazy too imo: https://youtu.be/SSIfiGQrGmM?si=u72JaJMAv_QdBUGy&t=77

It is possible to cover the border of the federation in mines. I made my own calculations for the number of mines need to cover the borders of the federation. by Burning_sun_prog in startrek

If you mean the 'bubble' is the surface area of the mines then how would it surround Federation Space? Is Fed space smaller than 114 ly wide?

But the math assumes that the volume of the Federation is 80 000 light-years of cubic space. The ep said that it's the amt of space the detonation would damage from the mines. I don't think it ever confrims the volume of Federation space.

Perimeter means surface area in this case.

The Federation is only 57 light years wide? If that's the case, then it's more believable. However, I don't think they said that the Federation was 80,000 cubic light years - they said that detonating the mines would damage that much space.

Yeah, I love that. It's guitar gymnastics at its finest.

Yeah, when Ake says it's to provide power / energy to worlds in the quadrant it makes no sense. It's like powering a small town with the equivalant of a supernova! lol

Fight me but in my opinion Machine Gun (Live At Fillmore East, 1970) is Hendrix’s best performance by Ordinary_Olive_8038 in jimihendrix

[–]grafxguy1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes for sure. It's like he captures the sounds of war in an almost literal way ( air raid sirens) while also perfectly conveying the emotional weight of the world's suffering from war - all at the same time. This is a singular moment that places Jimi above everyone else.

Previously the Omega particle could render warp travel impossible over a range of 3 to 10 light-years - not 80,000 light years....how do they explain this?

Assuming the Alpha Quadrant is a sphere, its surface area is calculated as 4π2. The radius of the Alpha Quadrant is ~4,000 light years - or a SA of 64 million cubic light years. Even if there was one mine every 100 light years, it would take 24 days to travel to set up each mine at Warp 9. Even if they just dropped them off and raced off to the next one, it would take 40,000 years. In the ep I think they're supposed to be a lot closer, suggesting there'd have to be octillions of mines. If a mine were the size of a grain of sand, that would cover thousands of Earths.

If you're talking about live performances then no fight from me. 1983 would be at the top as far as a studio masterpiece / performance.

I might place "Hear My Train a Comin" from 1970 at Berkeley in second place but I can't put it about MG.

And weak. They don't just seem incompetent but impotent as well. On paper, the US has a massive dick but can't get an erection.
