hopesdead@startrek.websiteOPto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Today is June 1st, the start of Pride Month. This scene from "Blood Oath" weighs heavily on my mind.English8·3 days agoMaybe it is something regarding the Bible? A Google search doesn’t bring an exact result for that quote but a bunch of different Bible verses are in the results however.
I have been a Trekkie long before I joined.
Pretty much my thing.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteOPto Daystrom Institute@startrek.website•Why did Richard Daystrom get a research organization named after them?English5·5 days agoDaystrom Institute is UFP, not Starfleet affiliated. Hence why those who work at Daystrom aren’t Starfleet.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteOPto Daystrom Institute@startrek.website•Why did Richard Daystrom get a research organization named after them?English7·5 days agoI didn’t notice this before but in Alpha canon Daystrom Institute was founded in 2256, before TOS. So this speech doesn’t make sense. The writer probably didn’t know that either.
EDIT: I need to clarify that this information is from “Chose Your Pain”, so it came along after “The Ultimate Computer”.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I like the man on his left reading the shirt8·10 days agoYou can find this on the album Inside Star Trek. Gene Roddenberry was asked to give an example of network notes. For context, just know Gene was a Humanist. He framed The Bible as if it was the script for a television show. Everything pretty much would have been deemed inappropriate.
I know we tease people in modern times who would criticize Jesus of Nazareth for how he has been historically known, but it is wild how a religious text would not been deemed acceptable for 60s or 70s television.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteOPto Daystrom Institute@startrek.website•How long would a shuttle from Earth to Vulcan take?English2·11 days agoYeah, if you go back and watch the video I posted on YouTube, the welcome message that plays when you’re in line specifically says shuttle. It would’ve made more sense if they were runabouts but there’s no evidence that runabouts are even used during the period of Picard season 3.
Based on what I can remember from DS9, runabouts are faster and generally used for longer trips.
EDIT: Is the Federation even adhering to the warp five speed limit anymore? I know it doesn’t get addressed after “Force of Nature”, but is there anything suggesting that the speed limit has been dropped completely by the 25th century?
EDIT 2: The site I linked says 28.19 days.
Since when is baking soda a liquid?

At least I wasn’t attending a bat’leth tournament.

hopesdead@startrek.websiteto memes@lemmy.world•My wife has this meme for when someone tries to shame her for me liking to play video games and build Legos/Gundam models.4·15 days agoI’d send them that clip of Will Arnet being corrected on LEGO Masters about the grammatical plural of LEGO. That would be my reply. At least criticize them with proper grammar.
Excuse me but us Asians have been using air fryers since the 90s.
It comes with the powers.
My dream: to be that person who gets to yell “It’s Morphin time!” and save the day.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•An american city named DeKalb, Illinois says it desperately needs money. But the city council so far refuses to tax gas stations or increase parking fees. Instead, they consider a tax on groceries. English3·16 days agoAre you referencing Parks and Recreation?
hopesdead@startrek.websiteOPto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Visited Vasquez RocksEnglish8·17 days agoYep. Many people for example mistakenly think Los Angeles is near Disneyland.

This isn’t licensed nor are these based on actual in-show designs, but Anne Gregory makes some nice ones you can get on Etsy. Maybe this would be a better alternative? I wouldn’t know how to make an earring. https://www.etsy.com/shop/AnneGregoryJewelry
