I think it’s “Best Service Ever”.

The picture on this page seems to have the same screen minus the red box.

I didn’t remember what their prison is, but that makes the choice so much easier. Was that in Voyager?

Any good captain knows that’s a rule worth breaking. If your options are: a) save a whole planet of people or b) keep your fancy status job in a post-scarcity economy, then you know it’s morally worth it to get court marshalled.

I’m not sure about the top one. He could be saying everyone is living a life of sin (like 402 said).

The bottom one is definitely saying he lives an odd life because that’s literally an odd function. i.e.

f(-x) = -f(x) for all x

If Christians were like Klingons there’d be a cloned resurrection of Jesus.

I always assumed we’d have realistic-looking human machines before we had realistic conversational machines. I don’t think that’s the case anymore. It makes the movie Her seem that much more believable.

Cheap is fine. I don’t use wired headphones as much, but I’d rather they break than whatever they’re connected to. I’d have a bunch of devices with ruined ports if my headphones had been stronger. Best option would be if they just disconnected from the port, but that’s less likely if the cable is orthogonal to the jack when I’m about to break it.

Back in the day, I thought Apple revolutionized with magnetic charging cables, but I never really saw that get widespread mass usage.

This style looks the most normal on Worf.

TNG aired from 1987 to 1994.
Boomers were born between 1946 to 1964.

The boomers were between about 41 to 23 when TNG started.
They were about 48 to 30 when it ended.

Baby boomers were safely adults through the whole run.

They’re really casual with that word “buffer.” They admit that they always have a copy of you on file just in case. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but when the TNG crew were turned into kids, the transporter folks were like “hey, why don’t we just use the old bodies that we have saved in the buffer?”

Side note: if you can do that and retain your memories, by their rules haven’t they invented an immortality machine?

People are justifiably creeped out by Barkley and his holodeck antics, but the transporter can sneaky clone people and nobody in that universe is suspicious about it.

That explains Voyager.

The normal use case for these apps is you download, then you only have access while you’re paying for the service. If you put your plane in airplane mode for Netflix, I believe you have a few days to reconnect or you won’t have access to your downloads.

It’s ok. Part of my mental health will live on in a new body.
