I knew you wouldn't let this go.

    Fawkes was so full of shit. This isn’t about honor. I literally will not survive the task. YOU might come out of it stronger, let alone unscathed.

      Todd is a railroading DM.

      I don’t blame Fawkes.

      I blame whoever at Bethesda wrote it and also whoever thought that was an acceptable plot point/ending and didn’t ask for changes.

    Just a reminder, this is only implemented because of a game breaking bug that would occur when you tried to send him in to do the job. I remember because I encountered that bug; I bought the game disk day one and didn’t update it until later. You literally had to pick a different option because if you had him do it, he’d be like “sure thing that’s a great idea,” and then he’d walk in there and flip the switch and then the game would hard crash to desktop.

      I’m out of the loop. What’s the joke here? I’m guessing it’s a fallout thing?

  So i know this is just a joke, but I imagine the simulation limits one’s options to those present in the room. If she wants to send someone more likely to survive, like Data, there would be a roadblock:

  • Not enough time to get there from the bridge
  • Site to site transporter is down
  • Spot ate Data’s communicator badge
  • Data is commanding the saucer section in another sector
  • Data is on Risa hooking up with Sela

  Something limits the options to those in the room. Georgi is the most qualified, and time is short

    Oh, absolutely. There are good reasons why that wouldn’t be an option.

    But those would get in the way of the joke, so I’m choosing to ignore them.

      A most excellent choice I may add.

      Well, those points weren’t in the room, so you can’t use them anyway.

  But radiation would damage electronics too, and Data is irreplaceable

  source

  • mycodesucks@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Possibly, but you know who has a history of surviving things that would kill any other crew member and has exhibited at least incredible radiation RESISTANCE even in that VERY SAME EPISODE?

    Also, it’s very un-starfleet to consider one member of the crew more irreplaceable or valuable than any other.

      Picard made the best use of his crew and their abilities, but he values them all equally.

      One of my favorite retorts of his:

      well said

  • Infynis@midwest.social ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Everyone on the crew is irreplaceable. Data wouldn’t want special treatment

    source
  • Zorque@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Nah, he’d just lose his memory for a while, then cause a radiation poisoning epidemic. Then be speared to death when he tries to fix it.

  Meanwhile on the USS Voyager:

  Tuvok and Chakatoy encounter each other in the hallway near Holodeck 1.

  Tuvok: Commander, I am concerned about the Captain’s continuous holodeck usage. She has not exited the room for the past three hours, and I believe it may be inhibiting the effective operation of the ship.

  Chakatoy: It’s been a rough week. I’m sure she’s just blowing off some steam.

  Suddenly, they heard muffled noises through the holodeck door.

  Tuvix: I have a right to live!

  (Excessive machine gun noises)

  Chakotay taps his combadge.

  Chakotay: Doctor, can you come to holodeck 1? I think something’s wrong with the captain.

  (No offense to Janeway. Just a fun caricature.)

  Why not send an Exocomp or two into the tube of death?

      I don’t think leading a platoon of Stormtroopers into the conduit would fix anything.
