Gentoo can't save that shit, OP.
>>46887512
They would be stuck compiling for years every time they tried to upgrade some parts, and they upgraded many many parts over the years.
>>46887512
The Free Software Federations flagship could not have absorbed proprietary Borg technology like Seven of Nine.
>>46887981

The only Trek that was worse than Voyager was Enterprise.
>>46888776
Honestly Enterprise was my favorite.
>>46888837
Then you either haven't seen much of anything else, or you have terrible taste in Sci-Fi
>>46888858
I guess I have terrible taste then, I've seen all but the original series. Archer and Janeway are my favorite captains.
>>46888872
Are you a grill?
>>46888872
Janeway was absolutely terrible. Her actress totally overacted the entire series, like she was auditioning for a broadway play.
>>46888704
shit, it worked for Scotty in TNG
>>46889319
Didn't she go on to Broadway? Honestly that's where she belonged.
>>46887865
>Poorly written and full of awful characters
>The Voyager couldn't run that shit, OP
ftfy
>We can be back in the Alpha Quadrant in half the time if we enable CFLAGS="-09"
>>46889332
Then good for her. She ruined Voyager, but at least Voyager wasn't as bad as other scifi spinoffs that screwed the pooch even worse (e.g. Stargate Universe)
>>46889319
>Her actress totally overacted the entire series, like she was auditioning for a broadway play.
No, she was the first menopausal Captain.
>>46888872

Genuine space-racist, so much of a cowboy he makes a point of belittling Vulcans and other species at least once an episode. Also a fucken hothead who can't help taking out his cock for a pissing match every time someone dares question any decision he makes.

>>46892330
They were super pretty though. The Crysis of Movies
>>46891414
Threadly reminder that Tuvix was a murder; Harry Kim ain't Harry Kim but a fucking fake; Doctor is the best doctor.
>>46887512
At least one episode would not happen. The one where Voyager's computer gets a [spoiler]virus[/spoiler].
>>46892349
I'll definitely attest to that, the ship combat scenes were awesome and I liked that scene with the Klingon patrol craft and Khan.
>>46891414
>made more progress than [...] Harry Kim
Kim really got the short end of the stick in that series. Hell, Paris pas demoted, and then later re-promoted, and Kim never got anything that I recall.
>Enterprise any good?
ENT had some promise, but they should've stuck with more of an exploring the unknown angle, rather than all that temporal cold war stuff.
And once they went full retard and became 9/11 in space, it simply could not be redeemed.

>>46888776
I only liked Enterprise for T'Pol. It also had the only non-TOS acceptable mirror universe episode(The DS9 ones were just awful).
>>46898113
Or Barclay.
I like Scott Bakula, but he just couldn't cut it as a Captain. He always seemed so hesitant and indecisive. He seriously lacked a commanding presence. As bad as Janeway was, she at least spoke with some authority.
>>46889400
Fixed.
>>46898494
>DS9
oh you
>>46898536
It's completely beyond me how anyone can like that show.
It's a cheesy, boring, loosely Star Trek themed soap opera. It was so bad that it almost made me stop watching Star Trek.
>>46898581
People like the Klingon episodes and the Dominion war episodes. Star Trek combats can be neat.
If anyone makes a claim that they give half a fuck about the Bajorans, the prophet shit or Dr. Cuck's genetic engineering crap, they're lying.

So how about that Battlestar Galactica series?
>>46898702
Might not have been such a problem if they didn't fly into every damn nebula and solar storm and spacial anomaly they could find.
>>46898581
You really have to know what to look for in DS9. The Kira romances and Bajoran politics are just so awful that I don't even watch any of them. Really DS9 is like you say that it strays so far from the original series that it becomes its own universe. That being said, TNG planted the seed that would become DS9.
TNG also had its share of piss poor episodes (someone say Troi?).
The original series is pure gold all around, and I don't think there will ever be anything quite as good as it.
>>46898728
there's coffee in that nebula
>>46898771
in the pale moonlight is the best ds9 / show ever made
So now that theres absolute trekkie-faggotry in this thread, I have a question to you all. I'm at ep 19 of the first season of TOS, and I just find it puking terrible. Will it get better, or should I stop bothering with this absolute horseshit?
>>46898799
>not drinking tea, Earl Grey, hot
>ishygddt
>>46898836
Go find an internet list of the ten best episodes. Decide after you watch those.
>>46898836
Yes, season two is decent, and then season 3 was so good that it caused Star Trek to continue on for another five decades.
They were just figuring out what exactly Star Trek is, and would be, during the first season.
>>46898895
Don't listen to this faggot. Finish it out.
Liken the transporters to wireless cards.
You gone git lost in the buffer m8.
With that in mind, sickbays pointless when you can use a transporter to reassemble them sans the ailment.
>>46898979
I wonder if every time they use the transporter, the original consciousness is killed and the re-assembled person is a new copy.
>>46899037
Does it matter?
>>46899048
How would you like to be killed and have some digital clone of you take over your life?
>>46899037
I've always thought that but it ties in well with their selfless societies, they no longer live for themselves it's all about 'muh cause'.
They're all ghosts filling some shoes and wearing faces long since dead.
When you reduce a person to a mere instance of the idea of them star trek is a dystopia from a personal perspective.
>>46899073
That sounds pretty horrific tbh.
>>46899062
Considering it's identical and even made from the matter, I don't I'd care.
>my life
You just I was kill.
>>46899105
If you feel that way, why don't you just pull the trigger right now?
>>46899105
I forgot a lot of words in that post. Fill in the blanks however you'd like.
>>46899124
There wouldn't be another copy of me to carry on my NEET life.
>>46899103
Nah it's all squeaky clean, you won't even notice, well, nobody else will, you will cease to exist and therefore no longer care.
This is also why 'redshirt' deaths are fucking stupid because you convert the idea of someone into a transporter pattern, you can effectively clone the idea of them meaning you will never want for personnel ever again.
Death from a staffing point of view is an inconvenience at worst.
>>46888704
Fuck, have the entire crew in transporter buffers anyway.
Crew dies? Too bad, transport another batch of 'm to their work stations.
Transporters: suicide is fun! At least your clone gets to be on the planet faster.
>>46899169
It's a matter transporter, not a matter replicater(if you ignore that Riker thing). I can't recall replicater creating biological life in any ST.
It would still be in the dock compiling it's AI.
>>46899186
Has Jar Jar Abrams not retconned this so it's wormholes?
>>46899217
But if you can reduce something to a pattern, whats to stop you feeding in a metric assload of whatever the fucks in that nebula over there as a raw resource and shaping it into the pattern? You've essentially converted matter to energy and back, tweak it in the buffers and you have a replicator of sorts.
>>46899284
>Abrams Trek
>canon
They would use Macbooks on the bridge.
>>46899322
>implying it isn't
>>46899307
Why do you even need that when you have a replicator that creates matter out of energy?
>>46899307
Transporter/Replicator technology is clearly not that advanced in that era, otherwise people wouldn't die.
>>46899336
>never
>>46899353
Only autists don't think it's canon. It's a proven fact. That's only because they can't handle anyone other than that dead faggot Nimoy as spock too.
>>46899339
I was attempting to sidestep the replicator issue of them being rather shit but you're right, it's the same fucking tech it's just a transporter removes the 'original' from existence first and pulls the pattern from what it destroyed while replicators work from templates.
Better series and ship coming in to ruin your thread.
>>46899322
Star Wars Vee Eye Eye should be good since he already had experience directing two Star Wars movies. I probably won't pay to see it. I only care about the vidya. Will the events of the Jedi Knight series be contradicted?
>>46899186
Imagine if they just did away with the from direction and only transported to directly from the buffers.
You could transport a whole army of Worfs onto the planet and have them kill themselves when the mission was completed.
>>46899447
No need to kill them, feed them to the replicators, I assume that does something or voyager would not have bothered doing it for their anally retentive energy saving policies.
>>46899431
>Will the events of the Jedi Knight series be contradicted?
I would count on it. I don't really care because it was so minor to the expanded universe but I wouldn't be surprised if they at least had the Jedi Acadamy on Yavin IV.
I just really REALLY hope they don't use the Yuuzhan Vong thing.

I couldn't get into it.
I couldn't get into DS9 either.
Loved TNG, even the more campy eps or characters, like old Troi.
Always thought I loved VOY too, but upon rewatching it, I had to stop midway thru Scorpion. Fuck.

It had an interesting idea going on. Some really nice elements, but it does falls short in the end. Too bad.

Congratulations
>>46899904
Swap tos and voy and you are right.
S3 and 4 ENT was good trek - but by then the damage was done.
Though ENT's intro can fuck right off - it totally missed the point of awe and wonder trek is about.
>>46887512
Superior series here
>>46899922
No, its fucking stupid.
Quark is annoying as fuck, there is a shape shifter policeman as a plot mechanic. The leader is a nigger with rage issues thats attracted to his "male" best friend trapped in a "female" body. And every single episode has above kirk tier over-acting like they are on the stage of a play.
>>46899934
I could live with that swap.
I haven't seen all of TOS and VOY wasn't that good.
>>46899958
I love Space Engine.
>>46899920
>I had to stop midway thru Scorpion.
Why scorpion? I felt the borg episodes were the best ones.
>>46899322
It is though, it's a parallel universe. Hence old Spock. It's the same universe as the Star Wars christmas movie.
>>46899798
>>46899998
Because it was pants on head retarded. The fucking mental acrobatics performed to keep the status quo hit the absolute worse apex in this.
At least for me.

>>46900148
Firefly got canceled because it was fan service pandering garbage and its fanatical fan-base of virgin's obsessed with kaylee and river were the only ones upset when it was canceled.
Coincidentally they were both shit actors and all the shows they made it into since then tanked. I.E. Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Hell if Voyager took as leaf from 40k it would've been 10x the series it was (though roddenberry would never have allowed it, he was dead by then). The 2-parter where they meet the other federation vessel gives a glimpse into what voyager should've been.

The "romantic" or "sensual" holodeck programs were always too weird.
For example, when Riker chooses to play a trombone with a jazz band for a classy lady, he smiles and acts as if he found a glory hole or something. He chooses the lady very carefully, in front of guys that tweaked the holodeck.
And he's as shocked when caught dancing and hugging with the woman, as you would be if you got caught masturbating.
It always felt like that was their future porn, or at least a future porn substitute for SFW television.

Ratings wise trek peaked mid TNG, it was all downhill from there.
THAT SAID ENT was the only trek apart from TOS to be canclled before it was "finished".
>>46901181
Enterprise had so many cheap "ratings booster" scenes that it was no wonder no one took it seriously. So much less classy than TNG.
I enjoyed Voyager, but then I was about 15 when it came out so I think I just didn't know any better. Rewatching it is painful. There are some good fun episodes in the middle once they ditched Kes but they were trying too hard to get them off of the ship onto lavish sets when some of the bottle shows are the best.
DS9 had a bad start but damn if the whole dominion war wasn't an epic story. ENT sucked.
