Can’t you chuck it back into a reactor and reuse it that way, to help reduce the radioactivity, and get more power back out of it?
This is Kirk and Riker slander.
Kirk doesn’t deserve that kind of reputation, whereas Riker does.

At the same time, it might not fit them. Lemmy is a link aggregator, which seems like extra functionality that they don’t really need, not when existing forum software will do what they need, while also being more stable/mature.
It’s got a very TOS-style of writing and story to it.
I remember seeing a fair few people pitch a fit about the Burn, for example, even though “angry man has a tantrum and nearly blows up the universe”, and “child with godlike powers” are common TOS plots.
They tried something new, which I don’t mind them for, but I don’t think it mixed well with people being used to more TNG-styles plots, and the writing not being that great. Still, it managed to help kickstart the modern revival of Trek, and gave us (non-wheelchair) Captain Pike, so it wasn’t all bad.
And a Russian and Japanese crew member at the height of the Cold War. Not just as background, but as one of the main crew.
“Metaverse” is mostly dead, anyway. It’s basically turned into VR Bitcoin, and a worse version of the already existing VR.
A.I. seems to be the new shiny thing investors are moving into, and I’d be surprised if Facebook didn’t just silently remove references to the metaverse eventually.
Fediverse, for the slightly cringey “verse” name, does seem to at least be trying something new. Federating multiple completely different sites like Mastodon, Kbin, or Lemmy isn’t really something that was done before (that I can remember, feel free to correct if I’m wrong). You had some integrations with things like RSS and APIs before, but you couldn’t just go on Twitter and post/reply/read a Reddit thread from within twitter, or you’d have to do it with a complicated network of bots.
Earth isn’t the only Federation species with no mentioned on-screen fleet, though (Betzed and trill also don’ maintain their own). You would expect that there would be more, rather than just the token alien in a sea of humans.
My father was once falsely accused of being a bak’targ. Calling Gowron Law helped restore honour to my house. 35/9 great service.
