Spoilers Picard 1x1, "Remembrance"

[Zeeshan]

Did anyone else hear the reference to Galactic treaty?

Its entirely possible that in Picards time the Federation includes members in the Gamma and Delta quadrant and that the borg or the founders are no longer a force.

 

[Alan Roi]

I signed up only to answer this

Its possible to clone the same human being using just one cell. We have literally done this with animals already, and there numerous examples of it is in trek. If it can be done on a human there is no reason why it couldn't be done on android.

Sorry its real. I know you want to bash it as much as possible,

That's not what they were talking about. They were theorizing all of data's memories could be recovered from a single neuron. Feel free to discuss how people can be cloned in the real world into duplicates who have the same memories.

Where was that ever mentioned in the episode?

 

[Tuskin38]

So, Mars has been on fire since 2384 or when ever the attack took place, and Picard is in 2399.

 

[Datasbeard]

Ha! I thought the exact same thing.

I assume it was a half-chewed Felodesine chip.

 

[Nenya]

Okay, Trump.

God damn it

 

[thribs]

So are they androids now or cybernetic organisms?

 

[Datasbeard]

She saw current Picard though, not Picard before Nemesis. However, it remains to be seen whether or not she has Data's actual memories, as she was only just 'activated'. After Soji is activated and lives a while longer, we'll see if that's the intent. I still think the idea of one neuron containing all that was Data is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy level science by way of using a piece of cupcake to extrapolate the entire universe.

They said "positronic neuron", which is not a real thing, so who the hell knows how it works. It could dbe incredibly information-dense, with lots of redundancy and error correction, in which case why not?

While I did give the show a 'good' rating, i found it fell down a bit on the oversentimentalizing of Picard that verges on melodrama at times. His Romulan 'house workers' for instance, seemed like at some level to serve as stand ins for all the Picard fans out there, there to speak for that audience to a certain extent.

biological androids, perhaps.

Read the Countdown comics, if you haven't. They are devoted to him, for sure, but with good reason.

Yeah, the dates are a bit iffy. In the movie, Romulus blew up in 2387 so the attack must have been just before that.

 

[Hythlodeus]

Feel free to discuss how people can be cloned in the real world into duplicates who have the same memories.

That's not what happened though, but whatever

 

[BillJ]

End of season we might find that Data's alive and well and hiding in plain sight.

This is what I think ends up happening.

 

[Alan Roi]

I'm not saying they don't have a good reason, its made clear that they are alive because of him. I'm saying that their use in the story for people who are watching also has that obvious level of Picard fan stand ins, expecially the fact that they appear to are now devoting their lives to being in his service.

 

[MvRojo]

Romulans spit Xenomorph blood! XD

On my second viewing, I realized he bit down on something (probably like a futuristic equivalent of a cyanide capsule) to avoid being identifiable. He then spit that on Dahj and the rifle.

 

[Spicy Thunder]

So is Dahj officially gone?

 

[BillJ]

Is it me, or does the Mars death total (92,000+) seem really low for what looked like a planet wide attack?

 

[Alan Roi]

That's what I was pointing out.

Depends on if the attack was actually aimed at killing people or not. Based on those numbers, likely casualties wasn't the main goal of the attack.
