You don’t. It’s probably got grounds or something settled into the bottom and the cup is shaped like that on purpose to prevent you from drinking them.

We can get a computer to tag the birds, answer questions about them, and generate new pictures of them.

I feel like the holodeck probably has a “private browsing” mode. It would be like the first thing they implemented.
I understand this conceptually, but there’s also a gremlin in my brain that wants me to make every line as short as possible.
I feel the same way. I think it’s just because the TNG films wanted to turn Picard into Kirk and frankly Patrick Stewart can’t carry an action scene (neither can any of the rest of the TNG crew tbh). The TNG cast would have been perfect to do a plot about space whales or a dangerous anomaly flying towards Earth, but they kept trying to do The Wrath of Khan instead.
Also a pox on everyone who says that Motion Picture or The Search for Spock are bad.
I’m thinking of Picard being a cyborg now (before everybody just agreed not to talk about it), but I’d have to rewatch disco to get a more specific example and I’m not doing that. It’s a feeling I have that I admittedly could be off base on.
It’s interesting because it kind of highlights how a lot people perceive Star Trek technobabble (or at least, the pop-cultural understanding they have of it) as being incoherent nonsense when a lot of the shows have put in a lot of effort into making it not that. One of the most annoying things about the newer Treks is that apparently the writers at CBS started believing it too, causing them to take less care with technobabble in those shows and actually writing a bunch of nonsense.
Doesn’t everyone in the Federation have a universal translator? I always assumed it was some kind of implant.
Scotty says he “bought” a boat at one point, but I’ve also seen long explanations that “bought” doesn’t necessarily mean with money and it’s just a common Human expression for when you get something.
I think it’s clear that on Federation worlds you can just rock up to a replicator and get anything that isn’t dangerous (and you can get the dangerous stuff with the right license/permit), but on the frontier/border areas (ie DS9) Federation citizens receive a stipend or a wage so that they can live “on the economy” along with the non-Federation citizens.
Twist: a red shirt is watching the video trying to use it as a tutorial, and can’t replicate lockpickinglawyer’s results.
