I used to have them on paper. I got them at a convention decades ago.

What if this was like how swing dancing came back for a hot minute in the 90s

Everything came back for a hot minute in the 90’s.

jayandp,

If they threw the ball backwards, was it mandatory that everyone jump and spin around?

    Sharkwellington,

    Is there a reference to Elon Musk in one of the newer Star Treks or something?

    I think it was actually clever ::: spoiler the character who references Musk is a mirror universe evil doppelganger. Him admiring Musk is one of several clues that he’s evil. :::

    You could read it as clever, if you want to be really kind. However, I don’t think anywhere near that much thought went into Discovery.

    Agreed, you’re not missing anything, same with the Picard show. I wish I could unwatch New Trek.

    IronCorgi,

    Picard was pretty good, nowhere near the clusterfuck that discovery is.

    Each to their own, I hated it.

    jaywalker,

    I can imagine Elon paying for this. I’m not saying he did, but I can imagine it.

    I love it!

    GreenMario,

    “I mean, say what you want about the tenets of United Federation, Dude, at least it’s an ethos.”

    shutz,

    I bet it didn’t survive the refit. Actually, I suspect that’s where the “Rec Deck” from TMP ended up, though I have no proof (were the post-refit blueprints ever published?)

    captain_aggravated,
    @captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Is there even a space for the “Rec Deck” to fit in a Constitution class? I don’t think it would fit where the blueprints show the bowling alley because the “Rec Deck” is at least two decks tall. The Constitution class is surprisingly small; I was a TNG guy and the Galaxy class ships are comically gigantic.

    Would be a question I would pose to a Youtuber by the name of We Travel By Night, who has tackled things like “The turbolift shafts on the exterior model don’t change from movie to movie, but the turbolift doors gradually move apart as they update the set.” or “the ship’s neck is so narrow that there’s no room for the turbolift and the engine plumbing to pass by each other, so how does that even work?”

    bradmont,

    Was bowling big in the 60s?

    Davel23,

    NIxon had a bowling alley installed in the White House.

    FlyingSquid,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    Yep. They had bowling on TV back then!

    remotelove,

    They even had bowling on TV through the 90s, actually. I used to watch it religiously before I was a teenager.

    Repelle,

    I haven’t watched broadcast/cable tv in years. Is bowling no longer aired? I never paid attention to it so I assumed it was just always there.

    remotelove,

    It wouldn’t surprise me if it is still on but I don’t watch TV anymore either. If my memory serves me correctly, I saw an 80s rerun on ESPN about 5 years ago, but for the life of me, I have no idea why I was watching ESPN to begin with. (Nostalgia, maybe?)

    FlyingSquid,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    Oh, I didn’t mean ESPN. Remember, back then there were three networks. Bowling was a huge deal to take up that time.

    swab148,

    ESPN 8: The Ocho

    peopleproblems,

    They still have bowling on TV.

    Are you guys trying to make me feel older than I really am?

    Ddhuud, (edited )

    Yes, but in the 60’s there were like 5 channels at any given time on big cities.

    Only if you are young. Like under 40.

    whew I’m only 38. Still young.

    xusontha,

    It’s the most critical part of the ship-Kirk uses it for showing off “diplomatic meetings”

    FlyingSquid,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    I’m picturing Data showing McCoy around the Enterprise-D in Encounter at Farpoint-

    “Where’s your bowling alley, boy?”

    “We do not have a bowling alley here, sir. But we have a holodeck that can simulate a bowling al-”

    “I’M NOT TALKING ABOUT MIXED-UP MOLECULES! Where’s the bowling alley? This is the Enterprise, boy!”

    xusontha,

    With the size of the Enterprise-D I’m astonished someone didn’t stick at least a mini bowling alley in there somewhere

    rotopenguin,
    @rotopenguin@infosec.pub avatar

    A third of the ship is all Holodecks*, so if you want to bowl you could just load a program up.

    *Source: computed by taking the number of “holodeck is trying to kill everybody” episodes and dividing it by the total number of series episodes.

    xusontha,

    That is the best way of doing math lol

    But does that mean there is a sliver of Risa in Deep Space Nine?

    cheery_coffee,

    Sadly it’s only the table flipping extremists.

    By the way, if you want to know whether or not this is canon? It’s canon.

    In 2266, Kevin Riley, under the influence of polywater intoxication, “ordered” a formal dance to be held in the bowling alley on the USS Enterprise. (TOS: “The Naked Time”)
