I drive a 1972 MG Midget with 20,000 original miles+original paint. It's more fun than a barrel of monkeys! So am I!

@RobertPicardo This is not true. Nearly all of us accepted it no problem-o. What was true was that some of the _original actors_ had a problem with Next Generation and apparently Gene Roddenberry was a little disappointed by that. That being said, half of the first season of NG was weak.

Trolls even troll Star Trek legend Jonathan Frakes memories (because, let's face it, who would know what's inside Jonathan Frakes mind better than Star Trek trolls?). But I, and others, prefer listening to the source rather than the noise. Especially since the "noise" makes $$$ on @X by TROLLING . So-- I'm filtering out the noise ( attn: Mr Del Arroz-- can't take the X-bait anymore now. Wisdom has prevailed !) EMH out.
Fandom Pulse@fandompulse

Jonathan Frakes on negative reactions to Star Trek: Starfleet Academy: “I was prepared because when Next Gen came out almost 40 years ago, we were trolled. Nobody wanted us. And this was pre-internet." "But it’s still dimensionally more painful [today]… and the trolls are hiding, and the trolls are hating. … It's the first rule of the Constitution. I guess they're entitled to their opinion, but it surprises me how aggressively ‘anti’ they are with each new iteration of the show. And it continues to surprise me, and I try not to let it upset me."

@theepicmap It's because only the west is the best. Brazil is unlucky w/ its borders and unlucky that Portuguese isolates it from surrounding countries as well as the geographic barriers.

@AntiLeftMemes California only got built properly because THE Philippine Islands (P.I. / later the Philippines) did exactly this. California would have been a poor state if the Philippines hadn't transformed us via opt-out. And the Philippines would be a wealthy state by now instead.

@cqcqcqdx Got one of these. The later ones just have 5 1/4" MFM or RLL drives inside and are pretty light. The early ones are big, heavy andmake impressive sounds. Have one of the heavy ones, one of the later light ones in the white case. Also have a Model 16 w/ Xenix.

From Radio Shack. All this for a disk that can store 50 times less data than a CD! And... You’ll also need an installation kit for the low, low price of $495!

If you go for mass drivers on the moon, what's the strategy? Maybe calculate the minimum reliable launch velocity for material returns to Earth? Use minimum electricity don't hurry the freight just get it home?

@HumansNoContext Pacific trade routes have convenient shipping lanes it isn't a Spanish secret anymo' like it was in 1650! Seems we could push 5% of our shipping away from low-grade crude ocean poison fuel to wind and see how it goes.
