Think about it

I have done that. I'm just more forgiving than you. They may have shot the go ahead scene and cut it for an unrelated reason. They may have decided not to want to get Romijn or Mount do another ADR session, which costs money. The Paramount/Skydance merger loomed heavily over this season's production with tight budgets and uncertainty for the future. I'm not saying the episode is perfectly put together. I guess what I am saying is that you are hung up on one detail here. I suggest you give it the Elsa treatment.

This is my perspective: this is a silly show. They did a musical episode, which I really didn't like. They did a documentary episode, which I could've done without. I feel Babylon 5 did a much better job with this kind of meta TV episode. They took the established "space dad" Pike character and made him unsure and hesitant this season and I don't know why. They are taking a soap approach to relationships within the show. The show is a dead man walking with its end after 5 more episodes already decided. All new Trek shows have already been axed and I'm not optimistic about the success of Academy. S31... With all of this going on in the background I choose to smile that SNW exists and not cry because the stories are wonky here or there.

would be a better acronym if you ask me.

People are mad. There are mad people on both sides.

Consumers can feel very empowered by a few hundred followers and one bad experience. And that translates more into a diss track, embelished and dramatized, than an honest review. Entrepreneurs justifiably fear this because this can hurt their businesses significantly. So they fight back with this legal retcon attempt. It's most likely not enforceable - and they probably know that too. If they wouldn't mind you speaking positively about you online, they cannot keep the negative stuff out either (as long as it is based in fact, libel is a different story). This little boiler plate serves only to give pause to the consumer. It plants a seed of restraint in their minds (if they actually read it).

Humans are a complicated species.

It did for me. Anything with file access will ask for permissions first time around. (Android 13)

We can all agree kids shouldn't be watching porn. We do not agree on how to achieve this.

That was only option 2.

You need to try for yourself. Or consult a therapist who knows you well enough. Us idiots on the internet cannot look inside your head.

I think "vibe scripted" is harsh. The writers were bumping against the restriction that they need

It's a version of "commander, you better take a look at this." It keeps the suspense up for the audience as Riker saunters over, maneuvering over multiple chairs, to take a look at the corpse of the mortal enemy of the federation. In a real military, Worf would say something like "heads up, Romulan casualties on the premise, everybody be on the lookout." That's to prevent the commander or anybody else from getting shot by a possible half-dead Rom in the rubble. But that's not great television. It's just script writing 101.

Consider leaving reddit. Vote with your feet. I did when they made these API changes and I beat the FOMO with my furious anger.

A lot of good ideas like that died when reddit pulled APIs or made access to them prohibitively expensive for developers. They are so set on making you use their shitty app.

Gul Darheel* is dead and buried on Cardassia. Smug Dukat tells Odo he attended his funeral. That's kind of a big ask for Bashir to accomplish resurrection from DS9.

Marritza suffered from the HDJ syndrome as well. It befalls characters whose death fits the story - and it is a more impactful ending with Kira almost mourning the loss of this guy.

*previously mentioned in the title but since edited out.

I would say "AI" didn't decorate it either. It provided an image of an idea. It'll take the fictional wife another 30 years to make it happen. And my money is on divorce before that. How come it's her job only? Pull your finger out of your butt, "AI" meme maker, and do it with your wife.
