One person’s trash is… yummy 😋.

“very better”? Anyway…

It won’t last. Right now it’s new, but ultimately it will become an actual initiation ritual to knock it down, or perhaps a harder version to steal something out from under its nose. It doesn’t know who you are if you wear a mask (or stay out of its line or sight) and don’t carry something broadcasting your IP.

This looks like just security theater.

Meanwhile, aren’t cameras cheap? If let’s say hundreds of those were sprinkled around, maybe behind an opaque substance so you could also put up 10-100x more of them but 9/10ths being fake, and you swap them around occasionally, that might not be perfect either but could work better than a robot offering a nice, easy, fun target to play with, just like in video games. (Nobody ever enjoys video games these days though, do they?)

I’d take back those words that have hurt you

A choice to be? (If only it were that simple.)

Sorry, looks like that image cut off only halfway through the word, what it meant to say was…:

Yes cause with his big strong hands he’s definitely capable of that:-P.

Can’t we “promote” that guy… what’s-his-name - somewhere, like could waste recycling use another helping hand?

Sir, I’m still on the call.

Or as many of his followers say, someone “smart”(er than them).

"Actually I prefer my mother’s brother’s sixth cousin’s cleaning lady…

's friend’s neighbor’s dog. She gives me cookies sometimes."

Let that sink in: THE transporter room… THE… THE!?

It’s like those choose-your-own adventure stories. Except in this one the only choice was to have glanced at it or not, cause after that it’s out of your control. And the title is:

Omg that cracks me up 🤣

Unless she’s one of those… other Janeways, but we don’t talk about them, no we don’t Bruno…

Please clarify: is there coffee inside the Zerg?

Oh hell, we all know the outcome of this match: if there’s no coffee then Janeway just slaughters them all out of spite. Either way, this Zerg rush is over before it began (presumably with her endless supply of, what was it, something like negative 100 proton torpedos?:-P).

Edit: plot armor, the most destructive thing in the universe bar none:-D.

Try assembly then - it’ll freaking blow your mind!:-)

Oh no I’m going to hell for this one but okay:

Yes they is precisely it. Not to be confused with a Lego party (of blocks), or a Minecraft blocky party.

Blah blah it’s a special case done b/c of the time travel blah - maybe something along those lines? :-)

Exactly - this conspiracy theory could go all the way to the core, and beyond! Or not, but it’s fun to think about anyway:-).

I dunno, that seems like a ginormous gaping security hole, if any ship containing mere drones could be compromised - even the tiniest ones with the least powerful engines (& thus shields, etc.) - and then it in turn could decide to blow up the queen… and/or literally all other ships. Any collective with such a feature baked-in sounds like it would not remain in existence for all that long, unless there were literally no other species nearby it that were even remotely close to their level of technological development.
