Some of them aren’t that interesting to me - I own a lot of these, but some of these I’ve wanted really bad.
Sucks there’s not the Who crossover on here, but nuts anyway.

(From an ep of Doctor Who, where he’s TOTALLY real. )

data1701d (He/Him)@startrek.websiteOPto Daystrom Institute@startrek.website•How did Nog go from not literally being able to read to outranking Harry Kim?English11·6 days agoAlthough Wesley’s acceptance occurred only months after Wolf 359 - it’s possible that event caused Starfleet to more easily accept cadets (including Wesley), and just happened to benefit Nog’s chances.
The Dominion tensions around the time of Nog’s admission may have also put Starfleet on edge and caused them to continue Wolf 359 era admission policies.

I guess the more literal phrasing of my question is how did someone, over less than three years, go from seemingly severely inadequate education to being accepted into Starfleet Academy and becoming an effective officer.

The best I can come with, with my crappy understanding of Klingon and The Klingon Dictionary at my side is “bIj yIbech” (“Suffer bIj!”), but there is probably something horribly wrong with that translation. Even if nothing was grammatically wrong with it, it could be an overly literal translation.

Certainly a perfect defense, but combined with just trying to use as few extensions as possible, it has worked for me.
I also get the feeling that Firefox usage per capita is higher around the fediverse - I certainly use it.

data1701d (He/Him)@startrek.websiteto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Soon to be one of the oldest living characters in the franchise.English1·8 days agoWhat I meant is technically, in the time frame of Academy, assuming we can take their word that this is the “normal” Doctor, the VOY:Living Witness Doctor should still be alive as well.
Depending on how you count it, both will be the same age. It would be incredibly funny if both versions of the Doctor met.

Actually, imagine a William Boimler moment between Alpha Quadrant Doctor and Delta Copy Doctor.

I should do one without SpongeQuimp, though.
data1701d (He/Him)@startrek.websiteto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Discovery has the best plotsEnglish101·18 days agoI posted this one a while back:
Despite that, I think there were some interesting things about that season, and despite the oddness that was that plot, Saru and iPad baby was somehow still enjoyable.
I just feel like they squandered their interesting new setting with season 4 (granted, I haven’t finished season 4); there were so many plots that could have sprung organically from the fall of the Emerald Chain and the rebuilding of the Federation, but no, we have to make up this stupid DMA as a big bad again, and we have to do another plot about dealing with grief.
Heck, we could have kept the DMA and still blown up Booker’s homeworld, but let his family live and instead have written a story about living in diasporas, rather than beating the dead horse that is DISCO’s take on individual grief.

data1701d (He/Him)@startrek.websiteto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Any Romul-ones fans out there?English2·20 days agoI am sorry I didn’t get this until you explained it. Only moderately familiar with Ramones discography.
data1701d (He/Him)@startrek.websiteto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Meme potential?English3·23 days agoHaven’t purchased it yet. I need to read it, but I’ve had a difficult time tracking down issue 30 in comic book stores - I got behind and have everything else in the other spin off series.
While certainly a weird idea, a TOS continuation series might not be so bad done right. I might love another episode where Uhura takes command, except it isn’t just because all the men on the ship are under the influence of space sirens.
Overall, the idea kind of reminds me of when they considered reusing the assets of the cancelled Secret of Vulcan Fury to make a CGI TOS continuation, though it didn’t work out for several reasons, I’m guessing in part because of the death of DeForest Kelley.
But honestly, I can see the sentiment of not wanting it - I think we do need a purely new Trek era, something like the mid 25th century or sometime in the 26th century.
