Have you noticed how your nipples have started to firm up once you're in the cold water?
Data: "My nipples are always firm, doctor. Is this... Unusual?"
That was not funny. (It was spontaneous though)
I'm so confused 😅 someone explain this to me please?
It’s an Insurrection reference.
Ah, it's been a while since I've seen any of the TNG crew movies
For this particular movie that's a good thing.
Heh yeah, they're mostly not very… well, good.
It's best to watch the double episodes I think
That's OK it just means that you still have a chance at a life.
Not that we care about that in this day and age.
Your memory is amazing. Do you know any useful info?
Absolutely not. I can tell you how various pieces of tech on Starfleet ships works. I can quote episodes. Hell, I can recite that ridiculously long password that Data quotes to the computer in "Brothers". But I had to google how to make hardboiled eggs a few days ago.
You must be fun on dates.
I get positive feedback every now and again.
So tell me what are the onboard fusion reactors for?
Well that does depend on the ship or station in question. Primarily they were used for the impulse engines which were essentially a bunch of fusion reactors strapped together and a nozzle to direct thrust. The power could be fed throughout the ship by directing it through EPS conduits. DS9 had fusion reactors left over from the Cardassians, if I remember correctly, that were used to power the overall station. If my memory is correct then those same fusion reactors could also be used in a self-destruct sequence on board DS9.

Wait, what?
Another question, do you know how a forcefield works?
Ask whatever you like, I apparently have no depths to which I will not sink to embarrass myself lol
That being said I'm not sure how they work precisely. I don't know if they've ever talked about that much on screen and I am pretty sure it's not in the TNG Tech Manual. Not sure about others. I know that Reed described it as a 'stable EM barrier' and that they are generated from transmitters throughout various junctions and corridors. However forcefields are also just miniature versions of the shields we see around ships. Those are generated using a high concentration of gravitons to generate layers of disruptive energy that cocoon the ship in it's protective shield. Presumably the same sort of technology is being used but on a significantly smaller scale and with less overall power.
Wow you're amazing! Have you ever considered a career as a web server?
I have but people don't employ web servers that have crippling depression and fear of loud noises
Sorry to hear that
It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness—that is life.
C'est la vie. Is all good buddy. I'm just making dark jokes.
Never know what the future brings. Maybe there'll be some kind of medicine at some point.
