Honestly, it’s still the F310 for me. I have mine since the early 2010s and it’s still working perfectly. Those things are built like tanks and between XInput and DirectInput are compatible with just about any PC game of the last forty years, no extra software required. Also, they’re dirt cheap.
Honorable mention to the F710, the wireless version. While Windows 10’s USB stack unfortunately broke compatibility with it (causing randomly dropped inputs), Linux does not have that problem.
Not to mention that pushing changes through over the objections of senior staff seems like a good idea to hurt morale in at least the short term. These people know how the ship and its crew work and they have an excellent track record.
Jellico always looked to me like a manager who joins a new company or department and then immediately has to change something to justify his presence and “leave his mark”. This usually results in terrible decisions and lost productivity. Except that in this case he’s messing with the flagship of Starfleet during a mission.
I kinda like the idea of him dropping that out of nowhere and just awkwardly walking off and her staring after him, unsure if that really just happened. And then he decides his joke didn’t land and vows to never ask Geordi for dating advice again. (He didn’t in the first place but that didn’t stop Geordi from trying to be helpful.)
As if! Star Trek has a bad habit of discriminating against hard-working, benevolent administrators who can’t even get one little statue built in their honor.
They should’ve kept making versions in different genres. A cappella. Ragtime. Polka. Death metal. Boy band-era pop with the bridge crew inexplicably doing a tightly choreographed dance routine.
That’s why they’re on the plane; they’re working overseas.
Warum nicht abgestuft, so ähnlich wie bei Motorrädern?
Man kann einen Führerschein B1 machen, mit dem man im wesentlichen Kei Cars fahren darf. Maximal zwei Tonnen und 70 PS, begrenzte Außenmaße, kein Anhänger, nicht mehr als 150 km/h. Dafür niedrigere Steuer. Praktisch für Stadtmenschen, die meistens eh nicht viel Platz im Auto brauchen.
Vielleicht noch eine Klasse B2, mit der man alles bis zur Größe eines Kombis und bis zu 150 PS, 200 km/h kriegt. Vielleicht sogar mit Anhänger.
Dann kann man die volle Klasse B machen, womit man seine 3,5t mit voller Leistung und Anhänger kriegt. Dafür höhere Steuer und regelmäßige Nachkontrolle, weil der Inhaber prinzipiell einen aufgemotzten SUV mit 300 PS fahren darf und dementsprechend nachweisen muss, auch das nötige fahrerische Können zu besitzen.
Dass die EU bei den Bürgern aus ungenannten Gründen extrem unbeliebt sei. Um es mit der Wikipedia zu sagen: [Belege fehlen]
Which would explain why TOS-era ships used those everywhere. Until they had LCARS and the matching display tech it was just easier to have everyone remember button positions.
Alternate interpretation: Starfleet’s mobile device UI isn’t great for managing multiple documents that you quickly switch between. Everyone defaults to using multiple PADDs because they’re not going to see a major revision of LCARS anytime soon.
(Also, they’re free and easily obtained, just go to a replicator.)

Ein wichtiges Problem ist, dass es nur ein Stecker ist. Wenn ich Kopfhörer fest am Handy habe, dann weil ich in einer lauten Umgebung schlafen will. Dann will ich aber auch das Handy am Netz haben, weil 8h Geräuschkulisse auch Strom zehren.
Mit Klinke kein Problem, mit USB brauche ich einen Adapter und mit Bluetooth völlig unpraktikabel, weil die meisten Bluetooth-IEMs selbst brandneu kaum so viel Akku haben, geschweige denn nach ein paar Jahren Betrieb.
Wenn die Handies zwei USB-Buchsen hätten, könnte man vielleicht über USB-Kopfhörer nachdenken, aber aktuell wäre das nicht besonders sinnvoll.
I gotta agree here. Every game doesn’t feel the same if you don’t constrain yourself to the world of overhyped overmonetized AAA slop.
In my library I have a game about running an alternate-history navy sitting next to one about being a scrapper in space. The next one over is about terraforming a planet with your own labor. Then there’s a pure-bred Igavania next to a quirky game about power washing.
Sure, there are multiplayer titles in there as well but virtually none that even bother with anti-cheat bullshit because coop beats competitive in my opinion.
(For the record, I do own overhyped AAA slop but it’s nowhere near the majority of what I play.)
Probably because that’s getting dangerously close to a subspace weapon, which gives just about everyone in the galaxy the willies.
Going too fast on an older warp drive can already degrade subspace and make warp travel harder for everyone. Now imagine a ship made to run at full warp into another ship at full warp and then both explode. That sounds like a fast way of pissing off your neighbors.
I wouldn’t bet on it. The Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module in there doesn’t seem to have a standard form factor so even if you can slot in a standard module you might not be able to connect the antenna wires. Also, this MBP came out just around the same time as M.2 so you’ll probably have to go for an older mPCIe module.
A USB adapter is the far safer bet.
Denk mal über einen Lebend-Insektenfänger nach. Nicht ganz einfach, Fliegen da rein zu kriegen, aber dann kann man sie raus kutschieren, komplett ohne lautes Klatschen. Dürfte der Hund angenehmer finden.
There was also oldschool SuSE aka “you’ll use whatever YaST gives you and like it or else”.
Except that the Enterprise only sometimes went crazy while “every system aboard DS9 broke simultaneously, three ships need urgent repairs, and Quark is yammering about how his illegally modified replicators are acting up” seemed to be a somewhat common occurrence.
On the other hand if you add some leeway you might end up with a captain trying to justify handing easily weaponized technology to a planet because he just happens to have taken a liking to someone there.
Given how horny Starfleet can be I fully expect there to be several civilizations that ended shortly after a captain found someone there to be bangable.
