: AHAHAHAHAHA! Burn, xenos scum! BURN!!!!A-hem. Great work Irony! A no-casualty mission is a pretty good accomplishment, especially after the body count of the last one.

Sadly, even if this is a Poe video there are people who would believe it.

It was never mentioned. I think it is just assumed that they are moving, but not the Earth.Problem with that idea is that the more distant objects (not sure how far we're talking about here, but for the sake of an argument we'll say Andromeda) would be moving much, much faster than the speed of light in a circle around the Earth. Pure insanity.

(after reading Fenrir's edit)
So what's his explanation for the stars moving in the sky? The firmament?

This guy has nothing on the Flat Earth Society. At least this nutcase thinks the Earth is a sphere (at least, I assume he does).

All I'm saying is that I fail to see how refusing to operate, even if only for a few hours, is "fighting it".
In case there were any misunderstandings, I don't approve of what Florida is doing here, but I don't think Women's League of Voters etc is doing enough to change it, especially if they're choosing zero new voters over any new voters.

Point is, giving up without a fight doesn't solve anything, and limits the number of voters far more than getting people registered and then risking a fine.So, the solution is to not let them register at all? How does that help?Perhaps I'm not seeing through the legalise, but what's wrong with requiring groups to turn in paperwork quickly? And why are so many groups not operating in protest?Because it is quick enough that a lot of groups can't make that deadline. Leaving scores of people thinking they are registered, when they really are not. Because they think they are registered but are not, they will be denied their vote when they arrive unknowingly at the polling station.
You're missing the point. It's not about blocking people from registering to vote, you can always do that, it's about making it harder for organizations that already operate on a shoestring budget (i.e. the Women's League of Voters and such) to hold registration drives. If they can't afford to operate in Florida, what do you expect them to do?

It does get a bit dull, but as long as you fight while freighting, then you can collect fame and fortune over time, as well as crew experience.I will say that I find your crew setup interesting, but then it is always fun to see how others do things differently.Well, the viewers voted Nia into the first officer position, and there wasn't any consensus on Kira or the rest. Of course, I can switch people around whenever

What else would you use scouts for? Garrison duties?

Nah, the uncanny valley is when you try to make things look realistic, but instead they look wrong. Clowns aren't trying to look real, they're over-exaggerated.
