  • Funnily enough, it was not a focus for the United Federation of Planets, seeing as having over 100 major inhabited worlds the number of colonies was relatively small and the Starfleet numbers and ships were very small.

    We just see the show’s title and that is is always from the perspective of Starfleet members.











  • Overall it is profitable for people to be alive, but to the society as a whole. But to the insurance companies every health issue means loss of profit, and when that loss outweights the potential future dues, they would love to and actively try to write off person to die.

  • Yeah, from the article:

    The diamonds produced using this method are minuscule, hundreds of thousands of times smaller than those grown with the HPHT method. Hence, these diamonds are far too small for jewelry applications.

    However, their use in technological applications, such as drilling or polishing, is a possibility. Due to the low pressure involved in the new method, it might be feasible to significantly scale up diamond synthesis.

    However, i bet they are already thinking of getting bigger ones, and might succeed eventually.

    What’s next, recreating Torment Nexus from the famous novel “Don’t Create Torment Nexus”? Though Elon brain chips is already Torment Nexus for all the monkeys who lived and died in insane pain in the development process.
