Here’s a rainbow that is close enough for the trees across the street to appear behind it.

They made a movie that dramatized the accidents really well:

When Tuvok is blinded in Voyager’s Year of Hell, he explicitly activates the tactile interface for his console. So it’s definitely something that LCARS supports.

The alternate future in DS9’s The Visitor implies through dialog that they have 3-D controls on newer starships.

That’s what dihydrogen monoxide poisoning does to average IQs.

Reminds me of the old trick on HTML forms where you use CSS to make one of the form fields invisible to humans and reject any submission that filled in that field.

Dragons, giants, monsters, that sort of thing. They weren’t entirely wrong.

first initial middle initial and last name

I do this when it’s a work-related document. Anything personal I write out my first name fully. So good luck forging my signature on possibly the wrong kind of document, people who want to forge my signature but only have one example to work from!

Don’t give up a stronger position for a weaker one in hopes of avoiding a conflict. You’ve only undermined yourself when the conflict happens anyway.

I’m an apartment building superintendent. I once confronted a late night trespasser: a junkie looking for a place to shoot up or snort or whatever his thing was. I demanded that he leave, but realized that I was physically blocking the only exit. He was cornered. So I moved out of the way and suddenly I was the one who was cornered. It all worked out in the end, but for a minute there I was facing a large, angry, paranoid junkie with a knife and no way to escape.

I don’t know what would have happened if I didn’t move to give him an exit, but I know that in doing so I gave up my own exit, and that was dumb.

I’ve had customers like this. Usually they just write their name in block letters. There’s no rule that says a signature has to be written in cursive so it still works.

Don’t you mean RDSM?

My champion:

Bride of Chaotica is my all time favorite Voyager episode. The cast all seem to be having so much fun with it, especially Rayner/Chaotica himself. The scene where Lunzak shoots Janeway and it just bounces off (cuz holodeck safeties) and she ad libs “ha, you’re no match for Arachnia!” is just so perfect. Satan’s Robot is hilarious. And I love how they merge the Chaotica-style music and Star Trek theme for the end-of-episode musical sting.

Not without their legs!
