Given that Storm Trooper rifles are the most basic-ass laser weapons imaginable and don't even consistently kill a person wearing physical armour, let alone a shield, this battle is over basically the minute the Borg beam over to the Death Star. The cube will be destroyed by the main D.S. gun, but it takes so long to aim and charge that half the station would already be assimilated - or at very least full of laser-immune Borg.

Additional thought: 70%-ish of a Borg cube needs to be destroyed before its distributed system collapses. If the D.S. main gun is too powerful it may just shoot straight through and leave the Cube with enough intact to keep going at least one more shot.

Surely if there's enough ambient energy to light multiple bulbs, there's also enough ambient energy to cause some serious problems for the radio hosts' health?

The more properties you own, the more tax you pay on the price of the next one - excluding if you only own one, but escalating quickly after like 3 or 4.

Do you mean to imply that Deanna isn't Riker's beard?

Incredible

That's still a spoiler 😭

I mean I knew that was probably what was going to happen anyway, buuuuttttt

My anime-only ass is gonna pretend I didn't see that

What, you never heard of a chicken breast? /j

Legit, I'll take this over the undocumented spaghetti I too often see written by "professionals".

I really love that Trump was Ruled to have committed 34 felonies because it means that at least one unknowing person has Googled "Trump rule/ruled/ruling 34"

Edit: come to think of it, that's a fun conspiracy, like the "Walt Disney Frozen" thing....

I swear every time I see an "iPhone is doing X" headline my only response is "wait, that wasn't already a thing?"

Unfortunately I haven't yet convinced all my friends to go elsewhere, so I still need it as a communication platform

Opening Instagram instead of Lemmy or Mastodon :(

I should say as well - it's possible to do numbers higher than 9999 by writing the line horizontally and making it long, and I've heard it was done like that in rare cases but I will not provide sources.

Cistercian number superiority tbh, gotta be one of my favourite notations.

Paul, John, George, and Ringo were 4 friends, and they were all Beatles, so I think they might have skewed this data a little?

2fer on this one - got a fun new keyboard and discovered Obtainium, which I'm quite excited about!
