    And don’t forget when you put the pieces of the puzzle together the DNA somehow rebuilt a fucking tricorder into a hologram emitter.

      As far as I know, the ‘ancient race that created everyone else’ has never been mentioned in Star Trek again (at least on TV) and I hope it stays that way. Let that episode die in the memory hole.

        Sort of like how warp drive destroying the universe and there being speed limits and shit just kind of went away.

          They sort of repeated the idea in Discovery with the dilithium shortage. I was not really a big fan of the resolution of that one though.

          It’s kinda funny how they introduced warp drive harm as a sort of analogy for fossil fuels and the damage we’re doing to our own planet, then slowly stopped talking about it because it wasn’t convenient to the plot.
