Don't think so, the only reason that the two phase II scripts were used was to fill voids left by a couple of writer strikes. Polaski WAS probably brought in to be a 'new Bones', though. Roddenberry's right hand man at the time had some sort of beef with McFadden and convinced him to fire...

Double checked and you are right. Several CHARACTERS are reworked phase II characters, though. Xon became Data, Ilia became Troy, and Decker became Riker(despite both Ilia and Decker having major roles in TMP)

Considering they reused a lot of the scripts and concepts from the unrealized phase 2 project in early TNG, that's not all that surprising.

Of course they did. It's all about free speech until the owner gets insulted. The sooner that transphobic jerk of an overpaid 4chan troll ends up irrelevant, the better.

Feeling a bit more dysphoric than usual lately.

Congressional salaries are kind of sticky situation. There ARE some strong arguments in favor of increasing their pay, but at the same time a lot of congress members really don't need the money. Maybe their pay rate should be based on total income. Kind of a progressive pay-scale like we do...

Well Quark isn't QUITE woke. He's a staunch capitalist and rather racist despite having softened his views somewhat by the end of the series. Nog, though.. He rejected tradition to join an organization that is the antithesis in many ways of what the Ferengi Alliance stands for.

It was a movie about a business deal wrapped in the clothing of a political thriller with a couple of video-game-inspired scenes sprinkled about. It was better than it deserved to be, actually. It was essentially the story about how Bullet-Proof Software acquired the international publishing...

Twitter grew to a size that makes it hard to kill. Don't worry, musk is on it, it's just taking longer than we expected.

Yea for every American Revolution we get 10 or so Reign of Terrors.

It will be harder for Texas to pull that off because, you know, there's no evidence Biden stoked an insurrection in order to stay in power. Not saying they won't try, though.

Truly amazing to me that they still have AT LEAST ONE major update scheduled for release on this game even after announcing their new open world fantasy game(which has itself been being worked on for the past 5 years in secret). For a team of their size and given the state NMS released in it's...

Trust me, I know. Alabama's government is squarely in the ' own the libs' camp, but even blue leaning states like Delaware were considering adding a tax to electric vehicles to offset lost fuel tax revenue.

I think the (flawed)logic goes that even if you aren't directly benefiting the grid, you are indirectly, since it benefits those around you so you should still pay the utility companies. Which on its face isn't totally wrong, but the way it's implemented actually hurts grid decentralization AND...

I can guarantee that 50% of twitter's users don't even know what a VPN is. Still even if true loosing 50% of European users would make advertisers even LESS likely to stick or return to Twittter.

Funny thing is I'm sure there are parts of Florida where you can find 10 similar sets of facial tattoos within a 5 mile radius. Also any alleged use of similar tattoos on a GTA NPC could likely be covered under fair use. GTA always leaned heavily on satire, after all.

Bring back Geocities....The web was more interesting when it wasn't dominated by a handful of social media sites.

I hate sports, but I love spornts.

Which is also a result of deregulation. It used to be that one company wasn't allowed to own multiple stations in a single market(heck, it was actually a plot point in UHF). That ended in 2003, I believe. Now one company can own up to three in a single market and most markets don't really...
