This is pretty typical for universities. They don’t want the airwaves clogged, doubling up NAT can lead to networking wonkiness, and they don’t want you giving university network access to unauthorized folks with an open AP.
When you say VR streaming, you just mean wireless from your PC to the headset, right? There’s a chance you could do that with an offline wireless router if the VR experiences you’re looking to play are single player.
Shout out to Steven Universe giving their main character a shield.
Thirty minutes. So mostly misspelled words. Most implementations of this type of feature also have a small “Edited” flag.
Deep Space Nine Young Adult Book #5: Arcade
There’s a new player on the Promenade: a Ferengi shop owner, Bokat. His Games Bazaar specializes in hard-to-find virtual reality computer games. He approaches Jake Sisko and Nog with a tempting offer to play a hot new game called The Zhodran Crystal Quest. No non-Zhodran player has ever won this game, but then, Jake and Nog have the best scores on all the other games at the Games Bazaar. And Bokat is willing to bet on their ability to win the game, and – as a result – win Bokat a lucrative business deal with the Zhodrans.
But soon, kids all over the station are falling into comas, their minds trapped in an ever-changing game. Suddenly, it’s up to Jake to go into the game and rescue them. It he wins, so does the Federation. If he loses, he’ll be trapped forever in a deadly game with a very real Borg!
I’m glad Star Trek novelists were given exactly zero guard rails on what they could write about. .Hack//Trek? Sure, why not!

These memes are spoofing Reddit’s “Am I The Asshole”? subreddit. The original posts are usually personal anecdotes about someone having to cancel plans at the last minute or stealing a coworker’s lunch. They’ve been replaced here with first person perspectives from various Vulcan episodes, with Illogical being swapped in for Asshole. The acronyms everyone’s using are letter swapped versions of popular responses on that Reddit. (NTA, cars break down. YTA, don’t steal your coworker’s lunch. Etc.)
Whoops, already made the second part of the verse.
“I’ve dealt with the constant pain of being unrecognized and under-appreciated for almost a decade. You think a phaser set to stun level 4 even registers to me anymore?”
That cart was a friend. *Exits Room.*

Merry Christmas Risa, here’s a D7 snowflake for your Twelve Cloaking Warbirds.
Eleven Rikers Riking, with apologies to Jack Randsom.
Oh it’s 100% Solok. The guy made his entire senior staff learn and practice baseball just to antagonize a former colleague.
Soval was the face of the High Command’s punchable decisions, but he ended up being a real one in Season Four. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CpIPixWaj1E
It’s a Jett Reno quote from Season 3 of Discovery for anyone scratching their head. They’re both no-nonsense war vet engineers. You have to imagine they’d either get along swimmingly or tear each other to pieces.
It’s someone answering the question, “What if a gas station were the side of a small Wal-Mart and had promenade vibes?”
Anyone else think that Gabriel Bell looks just like Commander Sisko?
DEFCON-level fun ಠ_ಠ!
”We have blueberry, raspberry, ginseng, sleepy time, green tea, green tea with lemon, green tea with lemon and honey, liver disaster, ginger with honey, ginger without honey, vanilla almond, white truffel, blueberry chamomile, vanilla walnut, constant comment and… earl grey.”
There’s some honest to goodness swearing on the new streaming Star Trek shows. Their highest concentration is probably on Discovery. The dialog’s written a little differently on the show, and their go-to scene establishing shot on the bridge is three scientists giving very Star Trek comments, and a fourth person earnestly going, “Holy shit this is so cool / extremely dangerous.”
The other shows have a slightly more classic tone, but even Patrick Stewart got an f-bomb off in the third season of Picard. The shows mostly limit it to one-off expletives during firefights. They’re rare enough that you typically don’t even catch them when they come up. They definitely don’t have extended colorful metaphors like “cock-sucker” though. At that point they’ll reach for a sci-fi comment like the Trek film’s “pointy-eared bastard”.
Personally I like the joke someone made a while back about how swearing on Star Trek is a setting the captain gets to make on the universal translator. Picard’s a narc, and Pike’s the cool boss.
Which programming language is this a book cover for?
