Figured this can do with a meme ;-)

Dinner was good btw. I had a goat cheese salad instead of duck.

Darmok and Picard. Datacenter. When the duck appeared.

    No! Not Patrick Stewart!

    This one hurts, people.

    Time to rewatch Darmok.

    Any other Jean-Luc Picard faves I should rewatch?

      He had some great roles, but TNG was special to me, and it would not have worked had it not been anchored by the dignity and gravitas of Jean-Luc Picard.

      Thank you, Patrick: you meant a whole lot to a whole lot of nerds. 🙏

        My friend Trevor spent some time on Island where hitch-hiking is a common form of transport. One day, Trevor gets into a pickup which had stopped for him. "To town?", the driver asks. Trevor responds: "Make it so!."

              Oh man, words won't do justice to how it feels seeing that Patrick Stewart has died.

              For me, he'll always be Jean-Luc Picard, who in my adolescence was this towering figure of what it meant to be a good person and a good man on my TV screen every day. Nobody else has been able to do what TNG did, and I'm not sure anyone else could do what Stewart did.

              Damn.

                    Door 3 is only used in one single episode, namely in 's "Ensign Ro"⬆️. Notice how the set is nicely connected to a familiar, pre-existing door, the one on the left side ⬅️ of the small turbolift niche on the main corridor set ⬇️. For some reason, that door is never used again on , 6/9

                      It seems the small red 24th century labels on the side of the transporter platform (#StarTrekTNG's "The Mind's Eye"⬆️) were simply removed for "Star Trek VI: The Undiscoversy Country" (middle). For season 5 of ("Ensign Ro"⬇️) the white tape was replaced leaving less space for the new red labels.

                          Here's another comparison of the "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier" shuttle ⬆️ and its re-use as the (shortened) type 6 shuttle on (here: "Darmok"). You can see how the raw metal superstructure still visible in the film has been hidden behind beige wall pieces on .

                            In these shots from 's "Darmok"⬇️ and "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier"⬆️, you can see how the large Enterprise-A shuttle from the film was modified to be re-used as the new type 6 shuttle on . Notice the same position of the wraparound LCARS display.
