Apparently being the victim of genocide gives you a free pass.

At this point, looking at this vehicle with your naked eyes is bound to cause damage.

I’m pretty sure this is in response to a recent California bill that forces digital storefronts to disclose if it is a license you are getting. Otherwise the storefront is not allowed to use words like “buy” or “purchase”.

Loved this game as a kid.

That explains why. throws hands up https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_13_196

Didn’t the EU force Microsoft to show third-party alternatives to Internet Explorer like a decade ago? I feel like this is the same thing.

How to speed run your entire user base into hating you.

Don’t you dare disrespect Hologram Janeway! /s

But please don’t.

EDIT: Just to be clear my tone is the sarcasm.

It’s as if one major atrocity against a whole religious group gives the world free rein to ignore their actions. Just because a group is targeted for genocide does not mean they themself cannot do anything morally wrong.

Okay, but what did a HOLOGRAM have this knowledge?

As long as we can still go to The Restaurant the End of the Universe, I’m cool with that.

Then why did a hologram of Janeway tell a bunch of kids she once was a salamander?

Sure, sure, you think looking for an intermix chamber of antimatter and matter that is not 1:1 is easy. What happens if they are simply leaking plasma from their nacelles? Or what if the ship is trying to steal your tech by luring an engineer onboard to repair “damaged” systems?

Or what if their warp drive uses an artificial singularity?

Is this Cold War II?

No

WHY THE FUCK WOULD SOMEONE WILLINGLY OPT IN?!

I already dislike the experience of being with other passengers on United. Nothing negative occurred on my part, just noticed how badly behaved other passengers were compared to every other airline I’ve flown.

My point is, I wouldn’t pick United to fly as my first choice.

I trust NASA but despite that I still don’t trust that it was Boeing who were involved.

I don’t trust Boeing with airplanes anymore. What makes you think I trust them with spacecraft of any kind?

No shock here. A majority of the world is on a stance of “anything/anyone against the state of Israel is antisemitism”. This is such a false equivalency. Just because something/someone is against what the government of Israel, does not mean it/they are hateful towards the Jewish people. Hell, making such an equivalency is placing actually Jewish people in an unintended hate group.
