For some reason, I've always associated "The Guitar" by They Might Be Giants with TMP.

Most of that sounds pretty easy to pull off. I have a few thoughts, though:

  • What games do you run in Steam?
  • Just a bit of a warning: Discord is annoying about updates, at least with the Debian version. I can't remember what the Flatpak does.
  • For MS Office, most distros should come with LibreOffice. If you have problems with LibreOffice, then Google Docs should be fine.
  • You'll have to run Spotify from the browser, but I imagine that won't be a problem, as you're probably not an audiophile
  • Run GIMP as a Flatpak, as distro versions tend to have weird bugs with the resynthesizer plugin.

So you're saying that Darren's wasn't an ordinary guy, burning down the house?

Though I am really fond of the pastel pallet of TNG and that whole weird scheme of DS9.

And it’s always a game of Chula with the Wadi. 😉

By the time the Vulcans had that technology, though, they had already been Federation members for over a century and thus would probably be used to respecting the rights of LGBTQ+ Vulcans.

Despite the storytelling potential, I’d think that the Pon Farr would put an automatic limit on any homophobia the Vulcans have, as once again, denying someone would have lethal consequences.

Another thing I didn’t initially think about is the Federation’s potentially great capability for transitioning people, considering how relatively simple it was for Bashir to transition Quark to being female then back to male.

  • The mind is usually considered a private area. Most people want their thoughts to themselves under most circumstances.
  • Also, this stuff actually predates VOY; In TNG’s “Sarek”, Sarek is hesitant to mind-meld with Picard to temporarily treat his Bendii syndrome.
  • On a random note, my history teacher had this as a poster on her wall:

Mint’s fine. I might also recommend PopOS - it just seems to be less crappy Ubuntu.

When I exchange files between host and guest, I usually just go to the directory I want to share and run python3 -m http.server
