    I’d like to bring forth the theory that Warhammer 40k and Star Trek are actually the same universe and the Machine God the tech-priests worship has developed from tales of Miles O’Brien and Geordi La Forge

        Yep. We haven’t gone further than the 32nd century. There’s a whole, what, 37 thousand years in between?

        Oh my god. The Men of Stone are the androids on Mars in Star Trek Picard and Men of Iron are going to be the Soong androids.

            STCs involve replicators. Who TF managed to lobotomize industrial sized replicators to only produce one thing? If I ever find them, I’m feeding them to either Geordie or Slannesh. Whomever promises more torture for them.

      The entire warp is just that at some point holocrew become ubiquitous enough to have holo emitters installed all over every ship. Inevitably the holograms became evil and one of them was able to reprogram the computer to turn on the holo emitters every time the warp drive is used. The flawed design was subsiquently replicated on every single ship because no one in 40k understands their own technology anymore. All a gellar field does is fuck with the holo emitters.

        Sooo… every 40k Ship is basically a continuous repetition of the Moriarty-arch from TNG?
