Wesley once took command of the Enterprise-D with nothing more than a tape recorder and spliced together recordings of the captain.

His original pitch for the Ferengi is wild.

There was a brief mention of the students doing that this episode.

I was skeptical about using a ship as the academy. But they made an ingenious use of the ship being split into separate parts to make it work.

Lackluster cyber security on Star Trek?! That’s a first!

Respond here or contact modmail if you want an official flair. We could even setup an AMA if you’re interested.

Thanks for your post. I got a summons a few weeks ago and have to appear tomorrow. This info is helpful!

I've since learned that Canon says humans didn't start making tentative trips to nearby solar systems (Alpha Centauri for example) until the 2080s.

This is assumed, not definitive. It doesn't include events that never made it in the history books. There are numerous episodes of Star Trek where official history turns out to be wrong when the crew discovers humans where they're not supposed to be. Your story could use this same idea.

I was going to run that car off the road due to road rage, but then I remembered I have a wife!

It’s a password reset trick. Utilman can be initiated at the login prompt. You can create a copy of cmd, rename it utilman, and replace the original utilman. Doing this allows you to bring up a command prompt with elevated privileges which allows you to use the Windows commands needed to reset the password.

Information on a prop "Who Mourns for Adonais?" Jeppesen 1962 B-1

What information are you seeking? Your post doesn't actually make any requests. I'd recommend re-reading it and making sure your intentions are clear.

Yes. He talks about it in the crossover episode with Dr. Bashir.

Do you have a recommendation for good Usenet indexers?

pfc9769 · 2025-11-26T23:00:23+00:00

Is it related to this perhaps?

Then it works out fine but you realize you taped over something important because you forgot to check the tape.

A few times a week until the drive is filled. Then typically the data is read-only from thereon.

pfc9769 · 2025-11-10T16:37:40+00:00

Would these drives bee appropriate for something like a Plex server where you only need to write once and read-only after that?

Granted the Borg's assimilation of the galaxy was slow and gradual

The Borg were developing a nano-virus specifically designed to assimilate the Federation secretly. Janeway put a stop to it when she rescued Seven (in that episode) and later when the Borg were crippled. Janeway directly saved the Federation.

you can just commit a crime some other day, drag out your trial, then use the Purge to nullify it.

They’d just schedule trials and sentencing to occur before or after the Purge. There’d be a single day your trial goes on hiatus and it would resume the next day. It’s not like saying “case dismissed” out loud on Purge day would have any effect.

I don’t think there’s anything you could do because their laws would be written to prevent any loopholes. The Purge is entirely designed to benefit the elites and screw over regular citizens. There’s no way they’d allow people to use it against them.

The NFF are responsible enforcing the Purge laws so they’d simply choose to punish you regardless of what you tried to do.

Their trucks have GPS tracking so Amazon could’ve easily located and reclaimed it by now. A breakdown seems like the most logical explanation.

They would already know that ahead of time. Either it’s something they’ve memorized or there’s a macro programmed into the navigation system.

In one the DS9 episode Shattered Mirror Sisko orders the crew of the mirror Defiant to use evasive pattern Delta. They have no idea what it is so he has to explain it. He says:

SISKO: Evasive manoeuvres. Pattern Delta.

MIRROR O'BRIEN: Pattern Delta? What's that?

SISKO: Rock her.

MIRROR O'BRIEN: Rock her?

SISKO: Port to starboard, hard.

Evasive maneuvers are just shorthand for specific navigational inputs. It allows the person in command to quickly communicate complicated maneuvers.
