How I’ve always seen it:

Starfleet (and perhaps a large portion of the UFP) do not use money or valuable materials to pay their workers and other organisations within Starfleet and likely those other UFP worlds under the same philosophy.

However, they do need to deal with many civilisations that do not subscribe to the same ideals. As such, they would likely maintain funds by trading to and from these civilisations.

It would be possible as others suggest to either bill Starfleet directly, or for officers to be able to requisition various precious items/currency as/when needed.

What about the joystick, I mean manual steering column. Pretty sure the one on the Enterprise-E was some dressed up off the shelf model. It looks a bit like something between a logitech wingman extreme and quickshot.

Well, I was thinking about Trump’s plan to make homelessness illegal and offer “offenders” the option of moving to a rehabilitation “tent city”. It seems like an eerily similar plan.

Prepare to fast forward!

I can hear those eyes.

You have to do the Gowron eyes too though!

Temperature sensors purchased from wish.com for $1.99.

You might very well think that, but I couldn’t possibly comment.

It would destroy all their terrible plots though.

Picard: “Shut down the holodeck!”
Data: “Holodeck controls are not responding”
Picard: “Pull the holodeck MCB!”
Data: “Holodeck systems shut down”

That’s odd in a purely programming way of thinking I’d have assumed it’d be easier to port from 6502 to Z80 since Z80 has a lot of instructions that have no direct equivalent and more registers. So porting from 6502 in a lazy way would in theory be easier (while netting a terrible result most likely) than the other way.

I cut my teeth on assembly programming on a Spectrum +3. I always thought the Z80s registers and extra instructions made things so much easier.

I stand corrected. I do know that the c64 almost always got the grade A treatment. I was always jealous of friends with one of those.

I’m going to bet the colours on the spectrum were a result of porting from the c64 version.

I reckon they ported from c64 to cpc. Got the colour as close as they could. Then ported cpc to Spectrum and did the same. The result being the yellow colour.

Generally most 8 bit bigger games were ported like this and the spectrum was always the loser in the game. Graphically the spectrum was always challenged. But there were some games that were done properly and looked good (I’m thinking of the dizzy games as an example).

You fixed your own problem? We NEED you!

Yep, this one is also 3D but the active kind. I’ve not used it in years, the glasses probably need new batteries.

And here I am on a 1080p plasma screen from 2011. Because it just will not die! Which, is a good thing I guess.

Booby is a kind of bird. So, I mean… The logo doesn’t need to be THAT different.

I had, I think the FFB2, and it was something else. I remember on flight simulator when you engaged autopilot it would move the stick in the way it was commanding the aircraft. I’ve always been so surprised this isn’t really a thing any more.

On kbin I don’t see it go below zero. :(

No! Forced to create an account but not on the flagship instances!
