I did piss in the ice. Naturally.

But the phased cloak had problems, and is is seemingly a dead end for the ability to fire while cloaked.

Why? Wouldn’t a photon torpedo immediately pass beyond the phased cloaking field and then immediately return to normal phase? Assume a phaser beam would the the same.

Unless we’re saying there’s no “field” as such, but the entire mass of the ship is altered and thus any projectile would still stay out of phase beyond the ship. If so, couldn’t a torpedo have an integrated “rephase” module added? Problem solved.

It’s also quite pertinent given the prevalence of feddit.(country code) instances of Lemmy, eg feddit.uk, feddit.de etc.

“alright geez, giz a skone”

“Good evening my good man. My name is Lord Ponsonby Smythe Smythe Smythe. Could I trouble you for one of those skons?”

Works both ways.

Edit: my friend, who I am currently drinking pints with, says “skon is more northern but posh and scone is more estuary”.

And he’s an expert and a cunt (his own description of himself).

But I am common as muck. I haven’t met an H I haven’t dropped and I’m proper Bermondsey and Millwall. And it’s a “skone”. In fact the only people who call it a “skon” in my experience in deepest darkest Saaaaaaaf Laaaaaaandaaan are posh cnuts.

Spock has a cat. Your argument is invalid.

I’ll bite.

It’s a “skone”. Clue is in the fact it’s spelt “scone”, ie just substitute the K for a C. It it was a skon it would be called a scon.
