Unless you are writing a hard-realtume system, Common Lisp is the only language you will ever need.

They need to recognize marijuana as Appalachian heritage (plays "Copperhead Road" on the hacked musak).

It's relatively easy to blow up another planet across interstellar distances, as long as you accept that 1) it will take thousands of years to accomplish, and 2) you will never possibly see any benefit from it.

I'm much more in line with Posadas on the motivations of aliens capable of interstellar travel; there really is no reason to take the Dark Forest seriously as a solution to the Fermi Paradox. The thing that annoys me the most about The Three Body Problem is that the aliens have "a wizard did it" levels of technology, but can't solve their survival problem in their own star system or find uninhabited star systems to terraform. It's all just "how do we justify interstellar invasion in a novel now that we know interstellar invasion is impossible and/or not worthwhile". Like you say, it's contrived.

Buying a Dr. Bashir action figure and a Garak action figure so I can mash them together and make them kiss.

Heck yeah, if you added logins and posting, it would be basically brutaldon for Lemmy, something I've been pondering for years.
