- Ask your teammate what he studied to get better

- Debate, debate, debate, even if you have to do it over the phone
- Comment on Canon Connections: PRO 2x01 - Into the Breach, Part I 5 weeks ago:
Just finished watching this episode and reading this post. I would like to read the next one after watching the next episode. Is there an index somewhere making it easy to find all these posts? If not it would be worth it, because they add value to star trek and they also add value to Lemmy

- Comment on What can be the reasons for self-sabotaging behaviours when it comes to relationships? 1 month ago:
You could look into “attachment style”, and perhaps you are “avoidant” or something similar.
Discussing this with a therapist, or advisor or life coach could probably help you zero in on what’s going and what to do about it.

I’ve read that humans are the only animals on the planet that can throw objects with a degree of accuracy.

www.numbr.dev is free and can do that. It’s like a calculator but you can label things freely in it.
It’s free to use

I think most of ST:LD pass your test, if not all of them

- Comment on How do you accept the things you cannot change? 9 months ago:
The way I see it, when that person blocked you, they actually admitted that you won.
- Comment on Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid? 10 months ago:
A lot of people feel the ways you do at one point or another in their lives, and that means you probably end up in their 90%.

- Comment on Do you think that membership into suicide pacts will increase dramatically within the next decade because the world is falling apart at the seams? 11 months ago:
Don’t worry, things have been falling apart since at least the beginning of written history, and most certainly longer. At the same time, wonderful things have also been happening during all that time.
Just make sure you take good care of yourself and of the people around you.

- Comment on Why is the DEA and ATF separate? Seems like they cover similar things from similar circles. 1 year ago:
Don’t forget that back in 1998, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms reached a Trade Agreement with the Food & Drug Administration
WASHINGTON, DC—The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, & Firearms and the Food & Drug Administration reached a formal trade agreement Monday. Under the terms of the deal, the ATF will provide the FDA with alcohol, tobacco and firearms in exchange for equal value in food and drugs.
“My administrative assistants and I were enjoying some of our food the other day when it hit us,” FDA Commissioner Michael Friedman said. “We have tons of food lying around, and tons of drugs, but nothing to drink, smoke or shoot. Then, someone—I think it was [deputy commissioner] Phil [Royce]—suggested we call up those guys at the ATF across town and see what we could get. Turns out, they were ready to deal.”

- Comment on Military Time vs 24hr? 1 year ago:
In the US, the 12-hour clock format is in widespread use, except in the military. That is why it’s called like that.
- Comment on Did anybody watch TOS for the first time AFTER Strange New Worlds? 1 year ago:
Just accept that it will be very dated, and if you can look past that, and if you can be 10 years old again, you could love it.

- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x01 "Twovix" & 4x02 "I Have No Bones Yet I Must Flee" 1 year ago:
It looks familiar to me too. At first I thought about the time traveling shuttle in TNG A Matter of Time, or the tiny ship at the beginning of TNG Conundrum, but it’s not any of those.

Question about the mysterious ship that destroyed the Klingon and Romulan ships: is it a reference to something that was seen elsewhere or is it something new?
