Knowing big bang theory, half the episode would be shitty "trans people exist isn't that funny" "jokes" and with the laugh track, there's 3/4 of your time slot.

And then it would be Zachary Quinto.

The last time I used skype, it was to monitor my 3d print because I needed to finish a project and my last attempt went all spaghetti.

So as I was at work I'd log into my computer from my phone, call myself with skype, and check to make sure everything was still okay.

Then I discovered octoprint.

My eyes AND brain are vomiting all over the place.

1 the things that have extra holodecks that I've seen are just space stations, which can have larger power stations. The ship in insurrection was purpose built to trick people into thinking it was their small village that they don't leave often. It can have all the power it needs dedicated to the holodeck and be slow with a Son'a escort for protection.

2 with you on that one.

3 also with you on this one. It just makes sense. Two people on opposite sides of the system could have dinner together in a holodeck. Easiest sell in the world after the holodeck itself.

4 the only issue I have with medical areas being holodecks is how often we see power issues in star trek. If they lose power, no med bay, no holo-docs. But if you're already doing it, I see no reason there can't be all the holographic doctors you need, and if the entire interior of the ship is filled with holo-emmitters then the EMH isn't an issue.

For the record, I'm with you. I think by the end of the 2380s they should definitely be having entire swathes of ships dedicated to holographic rooms.

In Voyager, The USS Prometheus had holo-emmitters all over, so the EMH was able to walk around and take the ship back from romulans.

Incidentally I was listening to some Certifiably Ingame ship breakdowns and they touched on a ship that has holographic interiors for a lot of spaces, but since I was falling asleep at the time I am unsure which ship it is. I'm trying to peruse the Playlist to see if anything looks familiar.

I have put more hours into red alert 2 and generals/ZH than the rest of my entire gaming collection combined...

This does bring a smile to my face.

At least you all can get your family to use it.

I can't even get my spouse to use it unless she thinks what we are talking about might be illegal where we are (it usually isn't)

I've tried convincing family to use it, but all that happens is I just never hear from them until I see them in person or they call me.

They don't even feel the need to back up their Amazon Kindle collection before they get cutoff from it... Thousands of dollars wasted if they ever lose access to the account.

Or call robo-rooter. They can help!

I have a picture of my wife posing in the children's cutout in the back, I jokingly asked if she wanted a picture with it and she got excited and ran over to pose.

I mean, we were dating at the time, but one of the first dates I took her on was the Wright pat airforce base museum.

This would absolutely have worked on me when I was younger. You know, if I had enough confidence to talk to women when I went to museums alone....

Give me autonomous swarms of T-Drones, or GTFO
