    Plus other Changelings have regular access to the shared knowledge and experience of the Great Link, essentially sharing in their collective expertise.

    No, that's never stated in the series. It is specifically stated that it's a skill issue, and we never see him perfectly mimic any humanoid even for a short time. The closest we get is in Children of Time, where he finally learns to take on a more detailed appearance after hundreds of years'...

    And apparently their true appearance was a mystery in-universe up until that season, despite Kira and Dukat stealing their uniforms in this episode.

    Looks like, yeah.

    Spoilers Hey look, there's a new Robin Hood show coming with Sean Bean as the Sheriff!

    It feels a bit Assassin's Creed: Sherwood (having said that, that's a game I'd play). Regardless of the adaptation, Maid Marian is always a fox.

    Hey, he still puts it on one molecule at a time when he gets out of bucket in the morning.

    We'll have to agree to disagree on that one. To me they were such exaggerated parodies that they'd be considered cringeworthy racism if they were of a real-world culture.

    That's a reasonable in-universe explanation for why they're acting like racist charicaturea of Vulcans. But they totally are.

    The Mandalorian & Grogu Trailer

    But that sort of thing is also relatively common for early teaser trailers. Look at Tron Ares, the only dialogue for the first trailer was a voiceover.

    It's Bajor, they're not made of money. Kira's the one who shows up on the news and interstellar conference calls.

    Kind-of similar to some superhero comics. Like, how long was Peter Parker in high school?

    Yeah, sorry, poor phrasing on my part, I was intending it more as a commentary on the transition in general, not your perception of it.

    Not really. When going back and watching early seasons of DS9, Sisko with hair is always one of the most jarring things.

    The Mandalorian & Grogu Trailer

    That's a selling point for me. Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon are in Star Wars's DNA, and if they go for that kind of cheesy high adventure and manage to pull it off, I'm all for it.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    My impression of Kasidy is that she owns her own ship and hires her crew, but generally doesn't buy or sell goods, instead taking on contract work to ship peoples' goods at an agreed price - essentially a courier for hire. She takes jobs for non-Federation clients, including Bajorans, so is...

    Star Wars: Starfighter

    Better than just using the name of a relatively obscure character too. At least it gives you an idea of what you're going to get.

    So just "I have a bad feeling about this"? It literally gives you two choices: "Accept personalised advertising and all cookies" or "Reject and subscribe for £5".

    Since I'm not going to accept their advertising cookies, what do they think it tells us aside from "at some point they're on a boat"?

    Spoilers Superman Spoiler Thread

    I don't think we need to assign any monolithic traits to Kryptonian culture as a whole based on this message. Even back in the Christopher Reeve Superman there were Kryptonians who took a more virtuous outlook, others (like Zod) who would've been right at home with the whole "rule Earth as a...
