Nah, the guy who has all the replicators create the Colonial Marines automated gun turrets throughout the ship trumps that pretty easily. That, or the guy who shuts down everyone else's life support.

The idea is that an AT-AT is really, really big. And they'll want to take it out to play... :twisted:

Well, I would have to get rid of my compainons, so this is what i would do.

Me: "Computer? Compuuuter?"

Comp: "Standing by"

Me: "Helloo computer"

Comp: "Standing by"

Me: "I want you to empty out all the air and open all hatches to space everywhere but here, seal this room off with forcefields though"

Comp: "Unable to comply, safety overrides must be turned off by a senior officer"

Me: "What is the name of this ships captain?"

Comp: "Captain Jackson"

Me: "Computer, I want you to simulate the voice of captain jackson(they can simulate the captain in the holodeck without authorization-TNG) and then utter this phrase: 'Turn off safety overrides, authorization Jackson Letter Number', now replace the word number with any number from one to ten and replace the word letter with any word from alpha to omega.
I want you to repeat this phrase at your maximum speed, constantly and randomly replacing the designations for 'number' and 'letter'"

Comp: *utters very very fast nonsense for ten minutes* "Authorization accepted"

Me: "Jolly good, now do as I instructed with the airlocks and atmosphere"

Comp: "Complying"

*cue sounds of horror and desperation*

See how easy it is to hack a UFP computer? :D

The members of SD.net get a Federation starship eh?

Okay, I can live with that. All I ask it that is' the Enterprise-D or E refitted with a incredibly safe Warp Core, and that Data is on board as well.

We all get to present plans and vote on who has the best plan to be 'Captain'

My plan:

Basically get all the lost and missing and overlooked Star Trek tech, design a working Genesis Device, build a massive fleet with the Genesis Device, and kick everyone's ass.

Either that, or we fit the ship with a Phase Cloak, and go kidnapping hot ckicks as sex slaves (any one that want's male sex slaves, we can do that too, just keep it in Holodeck #2)

Would Linux run on a GCS's computer?

What about NetBSD?

While people are arguing over rank, I'll go do some.. reprogramming on the main computer.

There is no such thing.

As long as I'm not a Red Shirt and as long as I still get to use something along the lines of a Hadoken I'm all set.

And then we'll discover how to start fires with our minds, divide by zero, and summon Cthulhu.

Easy in the holodeck, ask Stephen Hawking, and no thanks, I owe him 10 bucks. :)

Third lieutenant is not a rank either, and if it were, it would be an army rank.

You'll have to wait until I finish installing Linux on it, and don't think for a second that I'll be giving you root access.

Actually, although numbered lieutenancies are not naval ranks, they are positions in use in the naval service. Aboard Royal Navy ships of the line, the lieutenants' seniority was reflected by their positions; one generally could expect to have a first lieutenant (who was second in command), second lieutenant, third lieutenant, and fourth lieutenant.

In fact, the position of the First Lieutenant remains that of the second in command aboard Her Majesty's Ships; for example, Lieutenant Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark was appointed First Lieutenant of HMS Wallace in October 1942 (he was subsequently created the 1st Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Merioneth, and Baron Greenwich, upon his marriage to the Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Mary of Great Britain and Ireland in November 1947).

In the United States Navy, the First Lieutenant is the the head of the Deck Department. On ships lacking an Air Department, the First Lieutenant is responsible for the ship's flight deck, hangar, and flight deck equipment; on ships lacking a Weapons or Combat Systems Department, the First Lieutenant is also responsible for ordinance equipment.

Of course, the rank of third lieutenant was held by Juan Rico during his Mobile Infantry officer candidacy in Starship Troopers; this instance of "third lieutenant" is probably more familiar to most observers than the actual naval usage.

If anyone's looking for me, I'm on the bridge, replacing the okudagrams with something remotely useful ... and brass levers.

Well, lets assume it was a GCS. Since we have 1328 members, they would all just barely fit. So we would need another ship.

The Enterprise E (after Nemesis refit, but before Nemesis) is floating in space.

Data: Captain, a GCS just came out of warp, and is hailing us. The ship identifies itself as... the USS Die Stupid Asshat Mother Fucking Federation Cowards, Muahahahaha!!!! :twisted:
Picard: On screen. I am Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise.
Wong: I am Captain Michael Wong of the USS Die Stupid Asshat Mother Fucking Federation Cowards, Muahahahaha!!!! :twisted:. Our sensors have detected that your warp core is unstable. Would you mind evacuating and all going into those little lifeboats while leaving your ship fully operational?
Picard: Certainly.

10 minutes later

Wong: Thats it, move all the lifeboats close together, thats right, 40 km away from us... fire.

A photorp obliterates the lifeboats. The USS Die Stupid Asshat Mother Fucking Federation Cowards, Muahahahaha!!!! :twisted: beams half of its crew over to the Enterprise, and we embark on our mission to bitch-slap the Federation.

All coputers in the Trek universe use RedHat. That's why they're all compatible.

Then explain the lack of security. Or redundancy. Or anything usefull.

The Sovereign class doesn't have many problems with the warp core. If anything, the problem would be on your GCS, idiot.

Needless to say, we have observed the E-D much longer than the E-E (seven years vs. three periods of days apiece). The Sovereign class could have similar warp core difficulties and we wouldn't necessarily know.

If you look carefully at the context of that conversation, you will see that Captain Wong was obviously lying. It doesn't matter who has a less stable warp core. What matters is how gullible Picard is.

This one wouldn't. At least, not for long.
