  • The Borg would want that technology so after that first cube is destroyed they’d be back with enough firepower to overwhelm the shields and get drones on board. Even if they lost a couple of hundred cubes it would likely be worthwhile.

    The Borg have several trillions of drones many thousands to millions of vessels. They can go full Russia tactics with capturing the death star if needed.


    If this is the first death star though, they’d just beam some drones aboard while it was busy destroying them.

    There were small gaps in the shields of the first Death Star; the Empire believed that this was harmless since only small ships could wiggle through the gaps.

    If a small ship can get through then a transporter beam is definitely getting through.


  • Well, for one, its relationship to “Gaming” is tenuous, at best

    I agree it would potentially be better in a mildly interesting or a graphics design based community. But it is related to gaming, even if tenuously.

    There’s nothing even remotely conversation worthy here. “Look at this neat design.” Okay, and? What is the expected or desired response to that?

    And yet multiple people have managed to make responses. Discussing the design in relation to other Nintendo designs etc.

    Just because you couldn’t think of something to add to the conversation doesn’t mean others couldn’t.






  • Tbh the question is just how big a majority labour get, and whether the Tories will even be the second biggest party.

    Nigel Frog Face Farage’s far right Reform UK do look like they might get up to maybe 15%-20% of vote however. But thanks to our very unrepresentative FPTP system they’re looking to get 0.15% to 0.31% of the members of parliament. In short they’re facing the same issues that have held down the left in the UK for years.









  • The “of course” makes it clear you dislike the outcome

    Only inasmuch as a desirable outcome would have been the lowering of the age of retirement for men to either that of women or meeting both on the middle. The issue is that the government being the government took it as an excuse to effectively cut welfare.

    The long mention of the men who in your eyes “caused” this

    To be honest it probably just brought it on sooner. The government would have found it as excuse to raise the retirement age without it being highlighted to them.

    also makes it pretty obvious what your stance is about this and who you want the scapegoat to be in the discussion.

    No, still don’t see it.
