Yeah true, I suppose that kind of defeats my whole idea that Vulcans would self-destruct if they allowed emotions to control them.
I haven't seen the episode yet that I think you're alluding to, but yes Vulcans have always been presented as having a kind of Buddhist-style philosophy with the important qualification that they would literally destroy themselves as an advanced race without it. The "religion" is an important social technology to enable them to explore the cosmos.
It's obviously alluding to humans too, if we can't control our innate animal reactions like tribalism and greed then we too will not be able to harness our own (physical) technology without self-destructing.
Yeah like I said: "vibes"
This is actually really funny
I agree the Gamble plot was great and the actor nailed it.
XKCD 2501 applies in this thread.
OP, get CasaOS or Yunohost. Very very simple. Your laptop is fine (you'll probably want to upgrade the ram soon).
They wanted to avoid another entrance/exit on screen to keep us guessing how this Star Trek Inception works.
I understand the reasoning from a suspense perspective but manufactured suspense does not feel suspenseful. Think about it: why show the entire long debate about leaving or not if none of them actually care? The only thing that makes sense is that once they understood the danger was real there was an off-camera conversation with Pike or Una wherein Pike or Una presumably told them that the danger was acceptable and to proceed. But if we accept that the conversation happened off-camera, then the presence of the debate scene doesn't make sense from a storytelling standpoint.

Falling asleep watching TNG or Voyager I can understand, but every moment of DS9 must be savored. You sir are worse than Gul Dukat.
What are you paying for BackBlaze and Cloudflare?
