Despite the storytelling potential, I’d think that the Pon Farr would put an automatic limit on any homophobia the Vulcans have, as once again, denying someone would have lethal consequences.

Another thing I didn’t initially think about is the Federation’s potentially great capability for transitioning people, considering how relatively simple it was for Bashir to transition Quark to being female then back to male.

  • The mind is usually considered a private area. Most people want their thoughts to themselves under most circumstances.
  • Also, this stuff actually predates VOY; In TNG’s “Sarek”, Sarek is hesitant to mind-meld with Picard to temporarily treat his Bendii syndrome.
  • On a random note, my history teacher had this as a poster on her wall:

When I exchange files between host and guest, I usually just go to the directory I want to share and run python3 -m http.server

Update from OP: I ran into a minor issue where the Wi-Fi card would crash and disconnect from the laptop. I updated the firmware with a package from testing, and it's working fine.

Outrageous in deed.

I encrypt my disk with LVM on my Debian laptop. You'll need to reinstall your operating system, as you have to do special partitioning. If your device has a TPM, you can use Clevis to set it to auto-decrypt.

The comic is from the perspective of the TOS cast, and they have just realized that, at least by the dynamics of this sappy tribute post, they would eventually have to spend all eternity with Shatner.

In my elective class on Terran culture at the Academy, they also had me watch the following:

  • Empress Bride
  • Montilius Python and the Holy Grail
  • Subject Kane
  • Soldier Who
  • My Little Pony: Fascism is Magic

You might be able to script something with Debootstrap. I tested Bcachefs on a spare device once and couldn't get through the standard Debian install process, so I ended up using a live image to Debootstrap the drive. You should be able to give a list of packages to install and copy over configs to the partition.
