What I mean is I use it to get the links to those sources. Like when you use Wikipedia as a jumping off point. I don't think we're at the point yet where we have the problem Wikipedia sometimes has that the sources used sometimes themselves just cite Wikipedia.

even addresses the "needs of the many" argument by stating the truth: the other two are gone and the new being is there.

articulate case for their life, and even addresses the "needs of the many" argument by stating the truth: the other two are gone and the new being is there

That only addresses the needs of Tuvok and Neelix. What about the rest of the crew whose chances of survival and reaching home are materially hindered by the effective loss of a crew member. Presumably Tuvix isn't going to work 8 hours in the galley then straight away 8 hours on tactical. What if there's an emergency that needs both skillets at the same time? What if Tuvix is killed in six months time on an away mission?

It's true that Tuvok and Neelix were gone, but the option now existed to have them both back. So the fact that they were gone is reductive and inaccurate. Again ultimately Janeway has around 150 lives to think of, not just three.

The doctor straight up says that the procedure is unethical and refuses to do it.

Because he's a doctor. I doubt he'd be able to order someone into a jefferies tube to fix an ODN conduit in an active warp plasma shaft. Yet that's literally part of the bridge officers test. https://youtu.be/rC6rGoyEe2s?si=ho_FOBjSaUdTRurX

The question to me isn't whether Janeway murder Tuvix, but was the murder of Tuvix justifiable. In Star Trek 2 Spock famously states "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" in TNG Thine Own Self Troy learns that sometimes an officer must order a crew member into a situation where they know that person isn't coming back.

Does the situation Voyager was in and the creation of Tuvix represent the same level of danger "to the many" that say an imminent warp core breach does?

I've found bing ai is quite good if you ask for the source after anything it spits out.

I'll take the £5. That way if I wanted I could get two lottery tickets and a scrarchcard.

Though in truth I'd forget about it because I only ever use card then a year later think why the hell do I have a fiver in my wallet.

But with the cash you've got options. You could still place a bet on something if you wanted if you wanted that moment of excitement. You've just now got the option to pick something that has better odds or something you think you have some knowledge about than a completely random lottery.

They a're

We did the work so you don't have to. 😝

My excuse is I get half priced electric on Sundays.

Every supermarket has this in the UK. Has for years.

But I gotta get my quid back.

Pretty sure it could be considered fly tipping.

Lol so he had to get an iPhone for family chat, then I'll bet still had to install WhatsApp for all his friend's group chats.

The strangest thing was when I learned that American teenagers bully the ones who have Android because they mess up with the iMessage chats. So weird.

FTFY. In the rest of the world no one uses either SMS or iMessage.

This isn't a battery problem per se as others have pointed out, these are temperatures where ICE vehicles would struggle to start.

Ah that makes sense then.

Won't the money be spent trying to scare anyone who's anti trump into not staying at home come voting day?

It's customary in English to call people by their first name rather than their middle name, unless of course they choose to go by something different.

A May election is looking more likely no matter what Sunak tries to pretend.

Covid is no longer that much worse than the flu.

People bandy about that it's no worse than flu as though that's like saying it's no worse than a bad cold. Flu still kills thousands each year and will knock you on your arse for a fortnight.

evolving to be more infectious and less lethal

It was already around 3 times more infectious than the flu. If it's getting more infectious and is still just not that much worse than the flu we're in for a rough time.
