They also want to defer the costs of positively identifying users to the various governments, presumably so it doesn't eat into their advertising revenue even further.

I was just about to post this! Now I really want to know if Data's neural network was banana powered.

"If one crunches the numbers (as they do in the original article), it turns out that bananas pop out a positron every 75 minutes or so."

I grew up in the 90s and there were some absolutely unhinged ads during saturday morning cartoons. This spoof is only slightly crazier than an actual capri sun liquid cool commercial.

This isn't even a conspiracy theory, it's been investigated and found to be mostly true.

I didn’t know that Ethan Phillips did that performance while being effectively blind and deaf. Impressive!

Hah, reminds me of the time Bender tried to become a cook on Futurama.

I was trying tro relate to kablez's context statement to be honest, though now I'm wishing I hadn't so my position would be clearer. But her literal age really doesn't matter; her "world experience" is what matters. Or her lack thereof rather. Neelix, at times, seem's to be taking advantage of someone who is young and naive. Neelix absolutely does evolve past it and becomes quite good friends with Tom later on. The last scene of "Parturition" always makes me smile. But up until that point I always find Neelix and Kes's scenes a little bit cringey.

Tuvok would never admit it but they're secretly besties.

Naw you aren't wrong, he is possessive as shit over his 3 year old girlfriend. But lets blame the writers for that and not the character.

In another timeline we would have had Robert Picardo as Neelix. That's the role he initially auditioned for!

Sorry Wash! Also, this was the crossover I didn't know I needed.
