It's the year 1 kazillion you faggot. They are protected by power fields and shit.

Though it is kinda retarded they haven't invented auto-aim yet, when script kiddies on FPS games have already invented them since the 90s.

Why not just analyse the entire surface with the transporter beam and modify it to suit the mission requirements rather than sending people?

Why are Star Trek Shills allowed to make 20-40 threads per week on /tv/?

The show hasn't been on the air in years. /got/ is restricted but Star Trek Shills are allowed to post as often as they want, sometimes as many as 5 or 6 threads per day?

Who said anything about the 8th century you nitwit?

>>80068463
I said nothing of the sort, you're just illustrating my point.

Modern people lack the ability to comprehend what they're reading and just go off the 'feeling' that the text gave them.

>Modern people lack the ability to comprehend what they're reading and just go off the 'feeling' that the text gave them.

I've been encountering this a lot lately. I picked up The Book of the New Sun after a few anons and rl friends suggested it and after a few chapters started asking people if Severian (MC) was a sociopath. Turns out he is but somehow 99% of the fan base somehow glosses over it when it's pretty fucking pronounced.

Yes, but take for example, the episode "The Enemy." When they transport down to Galorndon Core, there are terrible storms on the planet, and yet they wear nothing more than their cloth uniforms. They take no extra safety precautions at all. There are no concerns on that planet about diplomacy or how the natives might react to them being armored or any other bullshit, because no one lives there. Yet they wear nothing but fucking cloth. Then Geordi gets lost, and falls down a hole. It knocks him out for a bit and he gets all dirty, because he wasn't wearing anything but a pair of fucking pajamas.

It doesn't help you think critically.

Not an argument. Niggers are genetically stupider than whites, never forget this. The smartest nigger can't hold a candle to the dumbest white, I understand why you feel the need to prove your intelligence now. It's ok, it's not your fault, you just have to learn to accept your inferiority (like manlets - how tall are you by the way? That would explain a lot as well).

You don't see MASH or Cheers or Twilight Zone threads all the time, and yet they did have a great run respectively.

The reason is because Star Trek has 792 hours of universe building for better or worse.

When I look at half of the threads on the board, I see stupid gossip threads, "why does he look 50 when he's 40", and just a fucking barrel load of nearly irrelevant shite that get's churned here every night I come and I continually regret it until I see a Trek thread because GOT is absolute shit, I don't watch Big Brother or these "reality shows", there is nearly nothing of substance on television anymore.

The Expanse has been O-K at best, but it it's very derivative of the style and grittyness that was BSG except BSG mashed that pedal to it's shit finale.

Really can't be arsed to watch the first few episodes of formulaic network slop so I'll stick with what still tickles the neurons.
