The pilot episode of Star Trek looks like WWDC 2024.
@jamesthomson That is sort of incredible -- wow
@jamesthomson We're on our way then it seems…
@JPZ That Utopia will arrive any day…
@jamesthomson Yup! Annnnnny day now.
Just waiting.
@jamesthomson This tweet is way under-appreciated, even at only 30 minutes old.
@jamesthomson The visitors glasses from V look closer to me.
@cplater Ah yes, a classic!
@jamesthomson FWIW, the 2 mini series still hold up for the most part, but it is very easy to see why it did not get renewed after the first season.
@jamesthomson @Gte Not WWDC24, the foldable iPhone isn’t coming that soon.
@jamesthomson Majel Barrett's blue fingernail polish absolutely rocks.
@jamesthomson “I’ve never seen anything quite like it. It’s like some kind of calculation device spewing bananas everywhere.”
@alistairlogie “How do we stop it? We don’t.”

@jamesthomson
Actually, goggles are a great idea in space.

* prevent metal shards from getting into your eyes in free fall
* protect eyes from flash of nuclear explosion
* prevent blindness from exposure to energy beams. Like the one the Star Trek crew is going to use to try and blast open the Talosian door.
