  • I’m not sure this would even be possible within the existing canon because the continuum could revoke the powers of the Q who was being assimilated.

    Excluding this canonical failsafe, I think it would most likely mean that the Borg would be able to eventually replicate the powers of the Q within the collective. This posses another interesting question or thought experiment.

    Would the Borg even be driven to assimilate any more worlds or beings at that point given the fact that their entire motivation is understood to be the pursuit of all knowledge in the universe? The Q seem to be near omnipotent and omnipresent. So, in theory, if the Borg gained access to this power then it seems logical that they would no longer be driven by the same motivations, and would even cease to be Borg at all since they would necessarily reclaim a sense of individualism.

    Either way, great question. This is why I love Lemmy. The Trek community here is amazing.



  • Star Trek: Enterprise viewership is like most romantic relationships.

    • Start out playing hard to get, and acting like you aren’t interested.

    • After a little while you get your interest piqued, and keep going just to see what happens.

    • Things start to get interesting for a while.

    • Things turn boring for a while.

    • Repeat cycle over and over until…

    • All of a sudden it has been 5 years, and you realize you were right in the beginning. You weren’t that interested, and you could have spent all that time doing something more productive.
