I loved AoS even when it started to get weird after season 5 or so. Should re-watch that soon-ish.

In VOY S5E07: Infinite Regress, Seven was sedated and Tuvok mind-melded with her to save her from the effects of the Vinculum. The way it was portrayed there, it would be like the mind melder entering the dream of the meld-ee.

It was, and I remember that too. Was just being farcical...

Spoiler...to balance out the downer ending.

They actually did follow up, and the episode was one of the better ones:

Spoiler: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Course:_Oblivion_(episode)

Though between "Demon" and "Course Oblivion" that's a good question. We don't see Voyager itself getting duplicated, so I guess they spent the time building it out of rocks and then forgetting they were duplicates.

15 posts for a 3hr old account. Slow your roll, Louna.

Yep.

Most of them are phishing test emails (where the org sends out fake "phishing" emails which have a UUID link tied to your email address) so they KNOW who clicks on these and who reports them. Until I stopped giving a fuck, I had reported 100% of them and clicked on 0. But since that doesn't let you "test out" of the 45 minute quarterly security awareness training, I stopped wasting my time and just delete them

The regular R4 is about $250 right now so I'd guess at least that much. A little pricey and probably over-powered for my use cases, but probably a bargain if you need the horsepower.

Sometimes I wonder whether all this "security awareness training" has any effect at all.

Nope lol.

My org sends out phishing tests randomly. I used to report every single one and have never clicked on any. But we all have to take the stupid training regardless of whether we successfully detect/report them or not. So I've just stopped reporting them since there's no incentive whatsoever.

All I can say is my user block list is so long that the comment count on posts in the feed is completely meaningless.

Always reminds me of this scene from Scrubs:

 
 
 

Duck face came to mind yesterday - randomly realized I hadn't seen duckface in the wild for a long time.

Or, alternatively, what are some old fads you wish would make a comeback?

The spirit of the question is social fads. Please try to keep replies to lighthearted things. I'll delete the post if the comments turn into political commentary.

 

20 posts per hour....save some internet for the rest of us to share.

 
 

One downside of TrekLit is, while it may inspire meme ideas, I can't just go to Trek Core to grab a still for it. Until I'm back on my regular re-watch schedule, gonna have to improvise like I'm doing here.

Also, this screenshot is from days ago, and I've since finished the trilogy. If anyone wants to discuss ST: Destiny and the origin of the [spoiler redacted], I will happily start a thread in !startrek@startrek.website

 

A little TNG + Eurotrip crossover.
