Of course he can build that warp core, but what do you want him to do with the ductape?

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Damn Q was fine once upon a time.
Q: “I like this guy, I’m going to make him fight Egyptian gods.”
Normal universe:
Mirror universe:
My favorite Q episode was the one where he caused two passenger jets to collide over Albuquerque, NM.
Who would win?
Scotty, of course.
I can see it
They're both fighting over the same pile of scrap to build whatever they're building to defeat the big bad, when they both reach for the same spare pattern buffer. It activates, releasing Scotty. He tsk's their work, pulls up his sleeves and announces "Looks like two youngins in need of a miracle!"
Depends. Seducing women? MacGyver. Building a warp core? Strangely enough also MacGyver.
Geordi would reroute the phase inducers and reverse the polarity of the articulation frame.
MacGyver would rip up the carpet, unscrew a bulkhead, rip out an EPS conduit and duct tape them together
Rom
He needs belt buckles, shoelace, and a piece of gum to make a nuclear reactor. So a warp core isn't too much more
Or an Ancient Wormhole
That's what she said
MacUseless
I would pay to see Jack vs Q
Jack blew him out an air lock
S6E11 "Prometheus"
Q sends SG1 to meet the Borg
Sam: "Their shields remodulate to block our energy weapons!"
Jack, reaching for the C4: "Not my problem..."
Borg cube: (explodes)
They can't adapt if you just nuke them every time.
In an alternate universe, RDA was Q with the starfleet insignia replaced by the victorinox logo.
(Jealous Scotty noises)
