Yeah. Sisko would have hit back.

I know it's asking a lot, but I would love to see Avery Brooks do a cameo, even for a few moments.
Then those people have not been paying attention. Picard is not a robot, or even an Android like Data, he is synthetic. The "golem" was designed to function just like a normal organic body. Except rather than being composed of organic components, it's composed of synthetic components, much like his "real" body's heart. A clone in all but name. Therefore, his body functions like any organic body would.
Even if he hadn't specifically requested not to have any "superpowers" or immortality, his body would still function like an organic body. A heart that pumps blood, or something very similar, throughout his body. A digestive system that delivers necessary nutrients. He obviously still consumes food and has taste buds. I'm sure his new body disposes of what it consumes in a manner similar to his organic body. If Picard's consciousness had been transferred to an entirely cloned body, we wouldn't be having this discussion, but it's essentially the same thing.

He doesn't strike me as the type of actor who would do cameos.
I agree it would be awesome if he did, but I doubt he'd be up for it.
On a completely unrelated matter: The "World Razer"? Really?
I mean, I almost thought the Confederation was actually kind of cool, and then they go and do that. Oh well, alternate Earth empires never do subtle, do they?
That said, I hope Alton Soong never finds out that
his ancestor was apparently involved in forming the Confederation in the first place

True, but I'd still like to see him.
Yeah, "World Razer" is a bit cringe, but hey, when you're murdering people I guess you can be a little cringe. :POn a completely unrelated matter: The "World Razer"? Really?

That said, I hope Alton Soong never finds out that. I imagine he'd be rather embarrassed...his ancestor was apparently involved in forming the Confederation in the first place
Most likely, still feels a bit too edgy, though, like in 1996 when people were making their AIM handles, and it was like "darklordxxx666xxx" which I bet still exists today.

"Brent Spiner for President 2024: Programmed in multiple techniques."
They could come back to 2022 to prevent him from playing another Soong.

I believe he's referring to the fact that there are already many discrepancies between our real world history and Trek history.
ah yes, I was misremembering
not going to happen. This was filmed before the current crisis.
I’m sure the queen has plans that,let’s say, differs slightly from our heroes.
it already looked like a razor anyway!On a completely unrelated matter: The "World Razer"? Really?
In President Annika's computer it mentions that the Confederation is prepared to use a Metreon Cascade on Vulcan. Does this mean General Janeway went on a rampage through the Delta Quadrant and brought back all kinds of terrifying technology of mass destruction? In that case does it mean she's the one that defeated the Borg? Shouldn't she be the one aiming the phaser at the Queen on Extermination Day?
They could be without difficulty. Past Tense was filmed out on Paramount's Backlot, right in the middle of Los Angeles.
I liked it, but liked the premier better. A strong 7, maybe should have been an 8.
I liked DISCO better at first blush. But after thinking about it, DISCO had a lot more plotholes than Picard. Though the Arrival stuff was VERY good.
However, Pucard was a bit more scattered, as everyone had their own moment of disorientation.
Still, very excited on where they go from here. Thought it would have been grittier if someone had to actually do evil rather than fake being evil. Well, besides Elnor chopping up some dudes and Raffi not caring at all.

No, no, no, what I mean is hopefully they don't have something in there that would be dated right now and also dated when we get to the actual 2024.
I don't think what's going on right now will de-escalate and, if it changes, it'll get worse. I'd love to be wrong, mind you. This is one Internet Argument I don't want to win.
That thought occurred but I don't think that they'd have the cojones to do that.
