@xusontha I’ve viewing this whole conversation on mastodon so is federation really broken?

@ThrowawayInTheYear23 I think you mistyped Landlord Cops. I need that show now.

@bionicjoey what TNG did to flesh out Klingons, DS9 does for the Ferengi, although I guess DS9 develops the Klingons further as well

@e_t_ @ValueSubtracted as someone who mostly interacts with startrek.website from mastodon, media links like this are really useful.

@ValueSubtracted I know it’s a minor point and there’s not a lot to be done about it but Boimler is one of the shortest main Trek characters and Jack Quaid just towers over everyone else on the Enterprise.

@Lamhfada @actsukrit @startrek it’s not true that you can’t start a new thread/post from mastodon.

Here’s an example of someone who just started a lemmy post by tooting on mastodon: https://startrek.website/post/230420

@T156 this post makes me think of the “Infinite Mass Punch” in DC comics. https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Matthew_Schroeder/Flash:_Explaining_the_Infinite_Mass_Punch

Wouldn’t a ship traveling at .25C firing a conventional missile effectively create the weapon that @kargarocP4 is describing?

I guess the rest of your points still stand regarding a deflector system for your conventional missile fired at sub-warp speeds.

@LibraryLass ok, good point. I’d still like to see multiple races/species in the Klingon Empire.

The Romulan Empire at least had Remans

@LibraryLass I’m not sure I want to see racist Klingons but a racial hierarchy implies more than one race and I’d like to see that represented.

I’d argue we are seeing that represented. It should be encouraged.

@LibraryLass The Klingons are supposed to have an empire, right? Trek never really explores this. Why should there only be one type of Klingon?
