Really skimming over the decency police lol

Could you elaborate on world war z? I read it as a teen but haven’t gone back and re read it

How does metal fester?

Show their kids the “reaseach” they did. They probably won’t mind after.

Not even close

I should not have just imported that lol, completely overwhelmed my reader app

Is there a way to make this an opml so I can import it?

Would love to read more about this, I couldn’t find it on Google, but im a bit stoned rn

My apologies I didn’t mean it like that lol, I meant like this art style is clearly what he was going for except this actually looks cool

This is how musk sees the cybertruck

I agree thats its normal to express your emotions, but there is a difference between telling someone that they have disappointed you and telling someone that they are a disappointment.

Calling someone a disappointment implies that it is something intrinsic about the person, while saying that someone has disappointed you shows that it is something that they have done and isn’t an overarching accusation.

Wild ass take. This isn’t something that only Iranian news is reporting. Show some respect for the dead children at the very least.

I’ll go ahead and concede my point. I haven’t watched enough original Star Trek and definitely dont have enough knowledge in physics to argue this further. My understanding was that the warp drive was kept just vague enough to be argued to be theoretically possible. But honestly, I’m not a physicist, so I am probably missing something obvious.

I was not saying that the warp drive was based on the Alcubierre drive. My pont was that the warp drive was more grounded in physics than the spore drive, so much so that it inspired the Alcubierre drive.

1. My apologies, I didn’t look at the usernames and made a bad assumption.

2. You are correct, my point was that the warp drive did fit within our understanding of theoretical physics at the time. So much so that it eventually inspired the Alcubierre drive. I couldnt find a way that the spore drive fits within our understanding of physics.

I think there are a couple treknologies that exist now, or at least are pretty close. The translator tech is not very far ahead of what we have today. The communicator actually influenced the design of early cell phones. Trek predicted quite a few real life technologies. I definitely think something similar to the replicators will exist eventually, hell 3D printing food already exists.

In terms of the more out there treknologies, I think the gene editing that is illegal in the federation is pretty scientifically grounded. I also think the medical tricorder will some day inspire/shape new tech similar to the communicator with cell phones.

The original question for this post was whether or not there was any actual science behind the spore drive. You said yes and no. Please enlighten me as to what scientific theory you are getting the yes part of your answer from. Because I read through your linked Wikipedia article and couldnt find anything about how a spore drive could even be theoretically possible. The spore drive is purely techno babble. The warp drive on the other hand, while being mostly techno babble, has some grounding in actual reality and scientific theory.

Edit: I wasnt paying enough attention when writing this post and assumed I was replying to the original commenter. My apologies to everyone.

Usually it is, but nothing in the wiki you linked to even hints to travel with/through mycelium. Im actually a fan of Discovery, but the only hint of science in the spore drive is the fact that mycelium and fungal networks do exist, they dont however operate in a separate space outside of normal reality. Unless im missing some cool research

Was all in till I read your comment, now I gotta flip and upvote to a downvote

Science based in that the dude who made the drive is named after a famous mycologist. Not sure how that makes it science based…
