Rishi Sunak is the name of a skunk in a Disney movie… And if it’s not, it should be.

As a rule, files never get deleted… They get over written. So it depends on whether that process has happened to any loose images.
It’s great that the two characters discuss this topic, I think it’s in the multi-part TNG episode where Ambassador Spock is creating a dissident movement on Romulus.

I say yes, she can be black. It doesn’t really matter as long as we’re all human.
The Official title of Taiwan is The Republic of China.
They still allowed the KMT (aka The Chinese Nationalist Party), to participate in their Democracy even though it ran the country as an anti-democracy Authoritarian state for 40 years.
Taiwan and China do a lot of trade together, a war would be difficult for both of them.
Yeah, but Data is actually intelligent and brilliant. ChatGPT is often just giving best averaged answers based on what’s most likely - and still hallucinates even in the latest version.
I haven’t used it, but it happens even in the demo they showed.
Technically he’s a Spock stand in: hyper logical but not quite getting humanity.
This characteristic… In fact lots of characteristics get shared and mix and matched across DS9, TNG, and Voyager.
In Voyager Seven of Nine and The Doctor are the “not quite understanding humanity” characters. In DS9, it’s Odo.
Ideally newer Trek would do this too, but it might also want to have:
A quirky or modded engineer: LaForge, O’Brien, Scotty, Be’lana.
A superior strength character: Spock, Data, Odo, Worf, Seven of Nine, Tuvok.
…and maybe a couple of psychic characters, Spock, Kes, Tuvok, Seven of Nine, Benjamin.
You’ll probably also need some mentally brilliant characters, a Klingon, and someone who doesn’t fit in due to a negative background and is jaded about it.
…a brilliant doctor helps too.
These characteristics are needed so you can write certain storyline types and stand alone episodes.
Why be a dick about it when you can just ignore them. Seems like they’re just trying to communicate in a way that’s generally experienced as nice.
Like I get it, it’s easy to get annoyed at people trying to “make” you participate in an imaginary and kinda lame social behaviour… But like, being a dick on purpose probably does you more damage than them
No one likes someone whose rude for the sake of being rude, or an edgelord, even being a contrarian just for the sake of it isn’t the greatest characteristic.
Better to find a stable calm attitude that doesn’t require that… And if it’s a way to blow off steam, better to find ways that are more in your own domain of control, rather than having it controlled by an external trigger.
Something to give thought to next time your driving jeep anyways.
Yes! Or that stuff from 80s movies… That they had at the end of long business meetings: Chinese take out!
So much better than foriegn foods like German Hamburgers or French fries.
Nah: Real American food like freedom fries!
Just don’t live near Robert Bedella or Jeffery Dharma! Simple!
Or Jimmy Savile…
…or Jack the Ripper. Or any number of people who are lifetime murderers, rapists, torturers, criminals.
Simple!
Unfortunately the technology will also be used for creating new weapons of war.
The Rubber Plantations were run as corporate states, and 10 - 15 million people were killed. One of the biggest mass murders in the history of Colonial Capitalism.
Roughly equal to the numbers caused by the British East India company when they caused various famines in Bengal and India by exporting all their grain.
Curry is woke! Finally someone said it!
… it’s because it’s foreign and makes my mouth feel burning. I don’t like it. I’m glad someone is finally standing up to this woke nonsense invading our culture!
…holy shit, I was pretending but are these guys just afraid of being colonized? It’s like a projection of a fear of being on the other side of the historical fence, a subconscious history they can’t acknowledge so it comes out as a fear of foriegn things they don’t understand being in control of their “new world”
I predict a world where it’s too hot for most to work, air-conditioning becoming mandatory everywhere, a slowing of development in terms of properties being built. The search for automation as a response. Cooling suits being widely used. The majority of the world’s crops failing. Food stipends being delivered on specialised trucks to each home… Perhaps by a division of the military… People dying on mass in the third world and quietly in their rooms in the first. Rolling black outs become waves of death. Experts dying on the job trying to fix them. Skinny bodies fighting for life, or fighting each other for food. Death squads who think killing is the answer. A daily announcement of what percentage of the country is on fire… But we’ll probably mostly be dying of thirst by then. Maybe it won’t be so bad.
Confused gay fascist who is more than likely a white nationalist, Peter Thiel.
They could do a whole series set after DS9 about these types of questions. Maybe something that alludes to questions around Russia and China but still aims for peaceful outcomes?
… mixing in philosophy sci-fi questions?
… You know the sort of stuff Gene Roddenberry was doing from the beginning?

Sounds like if would be a good indie film if the right tensions were played right.
