    OT: Where to Buy Episodes?

    Hi All, I was talking with a friend the other day and promised to buy him a copy of The Cage since we were talking about it and he never knew it existed. So I hopped on over to Amazon Prime Video and The Cage is there, but not for individual sale. Went on Apple's site, and it's not there at...

    OT: Need to Commission an Animator

    Mods - please delete this, with my sincere apologies, if it's not allowed... Hi All, When I'm not arguing politics in TNZ, I run a company that does branding and design, and we have need for an animated scene of a firefighting helicopter with a water bucket -- with the client's colors and logo...

    Are any Mac users left on STO?

    So I had to take a bit of a hiatus from STO -- due to kids being born, due to working too much, due to needing every gigabyte of space I could get -- but now things are starting to calm down, and I got a new used Mac from eBay that -- in comparison to what I had -- is a powerhouse, and what's...

    Decker and Ilia Post-TMP

    Hi all, I was just watching Star Trek The Motion Picture with my sons (ages 4 and 3) and my oldest asked what happens to Decker and Ilia after they are absorbed into VGer. And it got me wondering: have there been any books that revisit VGer or if somehow Decker and/or Ilia make any kind of...

    Tridimensional Chess

    Does anybody know of any tridimensional chess programs? Multiplayer would be great too. I tried Googling, but all I could find were hundreds of traditional chess games that are called "3D" only because the rendering of the board and pieces are 3D -- not because the game itself was different. I...

    Spoilers Enterprise, Romulan War... Two Questions...

    At the behest of some posters in the Enterprise forum, I decided to start reading Enterprise novels surrounding the war. Unfortunately, although I thought I was starting in the right place, I appear to have picked up the series in the middle with Romulan War: Beneath the Raptor's Wing... So my...

    Which TNG novels would make good episodes/films?

    A couple weeks ago @RAMA started a thread asking which episodes would make good films. In the same vein, I ask you all today which TNG novels -- or parts of novels -- you think would make for an interesting live-action story on the big or small screen. --- My initial contribution goes to...

    STIV: What if the crew failed?

    Suppose Admiral Kirk and his cohorts failed to bring George and Gracie into the future, what do you suppose would have happened to Earth and the Federation?

    Cloaking

    Hi all, I could use some help... I'm looking to start my a business, with the eventual goal of removing myself from my current partnership... But until I'm ready to do that, I don't want, when people Google my name, for the new company website to appear. Is there any way that I can...

    Western Union

    Hi all, Has anybody (particularly in Germany) received Western Union transfers direct to your bank account? I need to make a transaction, but wish it to be anonymous (from the recipient -- I don't care what the government knows), and thought this might be the best way. So I'm curious...

    Fleet Marks

    Hi... I understand from the announcement in the chat that we're grinding marks for an upgrade. I have ≈500 marks in my assets. I have no idea if that's a lot or not, but if they'll be of any help to the fleet's upgrade effort, just let me know how to donate/deposit them and I will. TIA

    STO: Galaxy vs Defiant

    So I just got promoted to Captain and am having some trouble deciding between a Galaxy class ship or a Defiant. On the one hand, I like that the Galaxy has a large crew, more weapons slots, more room for consoles, etc... But the turn rate is just 6. I have an Ambassador class now, and the...

    Question for the Authors

    Greetings, I was about to run my mouth off in another thread (about STID's writing) when I figured I should stop and ask a question of those of you who actually earn their suppers in the Star Trek universe -- for which I thank you all, by the way (many late nights have been spent with your...

    OT - Personal Request / Contest

    Hi All, For those of you who frequent TNZ, you probably know that my first child, Arthur, was born this past May. Since then, he developed a problem with his neck that caused him to favor his left side when laying. As a result -- in spite of my wife's and my best efforts -- he's developed a...

    Opinion about Baby Nursery Imagery

    Hi All, As you may or may not be aware, in a few months I'm going to be a father to the world's newest little boy. And my wife and I are thinking about his bedroom decor. But my wife and I have a little disagreement. She wants cute traditional things like animals and whatnot. And I'm...

    Skype video quality

    Hi All, Has anybody else noticed a deterioration in Skype's video quality with Skype 5 and 6? Skype says it's might be because of connection issues, or because of mismatched Skype versions, but that seems like complete nonsense to me. Video quality over the same connection/session was...

    Need a favor from any new parents

    Hi All, My wife is pregnant with our first child, and we have two cats to prepare for the eventual arrival. One of the recommended ways to help the cats adjust is to play recordings of babies crying. But the only clips I can find online are short, would be over quickly (which won't work for...

    OT: Training with Blender

    Greetings, First, I apologize if this isn't an appropriate topic for this forum, and if it's not, Ptrope, would you please move it to the correct place. I work in marketing and communications. I build graphic identities, stationery packages, collateral systems, websites, etc. And with more...

    Is Kirk incompetent or just rusty?

    This weekend, my wife and I took a break from chores, popped some popcorn, and had a little Trek Marathon consisting of Star Treks II, III, and IV. And it just seems like blunder after blunder. First Kirk fails to raise shields when Reliant approaches, in violation of both regulations and...

    Chronology

    Hi all, My wife is just getting into reading Trek novels... And although she has my 20+ year collection to choose from, she's finding publication order to be somewhat confusing. Is there chronological list somewhere that details lists the books, at least in order by general period, that...
