Hey, yeah. They're all about perfection; why are their cables all over the place? Only the Queen seems to have any cable management worth a shit; and it's basically just to make it look like she has a pony tail.

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 1 points 13 minutes ago

"We are perfection." You sure about that? Your guys shamble about, instead of adding appendages you remove them, there are loose cables everywhere that catch on everything, and your ships CLEARLY have inefficient use of space if a Galaxy-class starship is capable of maneuvering inside of it.

Is this borgslop

[–] M137@lemmy.today 2 points 58 minutes ago* (last edited 58 minutes ago)

"Kalkstuff" translates to "geological sample of chalk", which is a weirdly fitting description.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 7 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (2 children)

Evolution sucks. Look at the recurrent laryngeal nerve:

Instead of going 2 inches from your brainstem to your larynx, it goes all the way to your aorta, wraps around it, then back up. This serves absolutely no purpose and is like that because of random, gradual evolutionary changes.

[–] locahosr443@lemmy.world 2 points 31 minutes ago

Maybe its like a pcb data trace, needs to be a certain length to deliver signals in correct timing. That was just a convenient route to prevent tangles

[–] Krelis_@sh.itjust.works 2 points 51 minutes ago* (last edited 50 minutes ago)

Even crazier is how it does this in giraffes too:

[–] discow@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago

Should have given him at least a smirk on the second picture

[–] QuantumSparkles@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

The borg’s greatest weakness was a pair of scissors

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 1 points 10 minutes ago

On a related note: the Jem'Hadar have a crippling addiction to drugs to the point that denying them those drugs kills them. The main delivery mechanism of said drugs is A HOSE STICKING OUT OF THEIR CHESTS and not once do we see someone rip the hose out. I mean, Worf carries a knife on him at all times and is highly skilled in its use and nope, Worf never slices the hose. FOH

Borg design always bothered me. "Ooh, a laser! Do you project your own PowerPoint too?"

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 13 points 5 hours ago

Oh my god, they've assimilated Sweden!

[–] Niksolo80@lemmy.world 26 points 6 hours ago (3 children)
[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Oh no, they assimilated the Taelons!

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

I loved that character. It kind of made the argument that the Borg will self-correct over time if left to their own devices.

Interesting fact: That’s the same guy that played the overzealous SS Officer in Killing Game.

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 1 points 26 minutes ago (1 children)

His image: Star Trek Voyager “Drone”

My comment: Star Trek Voyager “The Killing Game”

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 4 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

People say Voyager sucks when it has dope ass characters like One. It amazes me. Voyager was always my favorite.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 2 points 38 minutes ago

Voyager has problems, and one of the worst episodes of all time, but it’s also awesome and worthy of being called Star Trek.

What hit me the most about that episode is Ryan’s acting at the end. Because it was good of the show to remind us that she’s an excellent actor.

[–] BlueOysterCultist@lemmy.zip 1 points 22 minutes ago (1 children)

What are your thoughts on the ending?

It’s been years but I recall being shocked that they just get home so quickly, not like in the scheme of things but for that specific episode

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 1 points 6 minutes ago

Them never actually landing on Earth frustrates me. Honestly, I kinda wish they'd gotten home sooner so that we could have some time seeing them adjust to life back on Earth/Vulcan/wherever.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago

And Stormfront!

A bit typecast.

[–] meat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 6 hours ago

Does it come stock with a water cooling loop?

[–] mrmacduggan@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

cable management like this is all well and good until it's time to unplug any individual item

[–] stevles@aussie.zone 1 points 3 hours ago

That's why you never unplug anything after you’ve used it. You're basically messing with the Mona Lisa at that point.

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 hours ago

In Borg Voice: Cable management is irrelevant. Increased mass resulting in increased signal pathway and higher latency is inefficient.

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

With how difficult good cable management is, Borg 2 is way more intimidating

[–] bus_factor@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

He's a lot less intimidating the moment he needs to turn his head.

[–] unitedwithme@lemmy.today 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I chuckled pretty good at the Borg!

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 7 points 6 hours ago

I mean, it kinda does makes sense - I always knew it was meant to portray their utilitarian nature yet thought that many loose cables & tubes was def a bit of a fashion design choice too.
