I just finished this game for the first time tonight and I don’t get it… I mean I get the point of the story being that there are no “correct” choices in this circumstance. Absolutely fantastic story. But the game itself wasn’t exactly difficult? I felt like it was holding my hand through the puzzles.
Chrono Trigger
Outer Wilds
Subnautica
Deus Ex
Ocarina of Time
I just mean resource and manpower wise we have the requirements to handle both. I understand that the system is the failure point right now.
We’re more than capable of doing both. People in power just don’t want to.
“Because the knowledge itself is worth the effort” would be my answer.
The really scary part is that it’s heavily implied that the cube that shows up in the alpha quadrant is the same cube that encountered the enterprise in the delta quadrant. The borg cube never stopped chasing them.
It’s a lot cheaper to launch with just the fuel needed to get to the moon, then refuel there and launch again in the much lighter gravity. It’ll make it easier/cheaper/less resource intensive to explore space.
New Weird! There are some books in this genre if you’re craving more of that style.
It’s possible humanity never gets the chance to encounter the Borg without Q’s interference.
The Q, believing themselves to be the most superior beings in existence, see themselves as moral guardians of the universe. Seeing as the Q have the same non-linear sense of time that the Bajoran wormhole aliens have then it’s safe to assume that John de Lancie’s Q actually has seen the future where he doesn’t intervene - and decided that doing so was the best course of action for the galaxy. Given his fondness for humanity, and Picard specifically, I think it’s safe to assume that the future where he doesn’t intervene results in humanity being completely decimated by the Dominion (the Defiant was meant to fight the Borg originally, as an example) - the results of which would have irreparably changed the entire Milky Way galaxy for the worse. Not a great look for our supposed moral guardians.
This idea gets a bit messy, but it could also have just been an elaborate part of the trial. We’ve seen from Voyager episodes that the majority of the continuum has slipped into a sort of eternal stupor, jaded by their infinite existence in a pocket dimension. Given that, I think humanity had already been deemed guilty by the continuum before TNG even starts (from our perspective). The only reason for the trial even existing is that John de Lancie’s Q disagreed with the continuum’s decision and took it upon himself to act as an advocate for humanity. Perhaps he looked further into the future than the rest of the Q, or visited some alternate realities and saw what humanity could become with a push or two in the right direction. Given that humanity eventually “fails” to convince the rest of the continuum that they are in fact more than a savage child-race, the Q created the paradox in “All Good Things…” that would have caused humanity to never have existed at all. John de Lancie’s Q knew he had to take drastic measures to show that humanity was able to be more than what the continuum believed them to be. One of those drastic measures being the encounter with the Borg, looking to give Picard an opportunity to demonstrate humility.
came here lookin for this comment lol
It says overall experience. Just say you worked two simultaneous AI jobs for the last five years and you’re good!
Just do not do this with an adult cat. At best they won’t react the way you need them to, at worst it could cause actual trauma to the cat and reduce their trust in you. You’re effectively mimicking what a predator like a fox would do to an adult cat and it can make them absolutely freak the f out.
I was gonna post this as well, this comes with CachyOS by default.
I had a professor describe it as such: “Computers aren’t smart. They’re just extremely fast at finding all the wrong answers first.”
Oh good, when do I sign up to fight the aliens trying to invade Super Earth?
That’s wild. I wish America had something like this! I once signed a two year lease just to get picked over another applicant, because I really needed a place close to work.
DEMOCRACY
I must be used to American rightwing media because this Telegraph article seems downright neutral by comparison haha. Also, I have a question. It says that one of the things this bill does is abolish “fixed term tenancies”. Does that mean, for example, that someone could just move in for a month and then move out?
Outer Wilds made me cry like a baby at the end. I wish memory erasing tech was real so I could play it for the first time again.
