He ain't called "partially functional" Data.

Because he’s fully functional.

AND ANATOMICALLY CORRECT

Guys... Data doesn't have nipples.

(I know it's Lore but they're identical, shut up!)

Edit: also check out them buns of polyalloy bioplast!

[–] EmergMemeHologram@startrek.website 10 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Maybe this is why Lore is so ornery.

Is it the mandula oblongata?

lol .... these comments also got me to thinking of the whole 'made in God's image'

What if God was a deformed or deranged version of whatever species he/she/it is

What if we're all just perfect copies of an imperfect original?

[–] LimitedExpress@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 9 months ago

I read something the other day about how christians will draw Adam and Eve with belly buttons..... Like, makes you think...

The ships computer, Eddie, becomes unable to accept new processing requests because it is running at full capacity after being told to make "Tea, with Data's breast milk" by William Riker.

Eddies in the space -time continuum...

Well what's he doing there then?

[–] Cylusthevirus@kbin.social 31 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I know it's a meme but there's an actual answer: because humans have them, and Dr. Soong wanted Data to feel human. That was the whole point of the project from what I understand.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 13 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Imagine if Dr. Soong wanted to have a bit of fun and place a third nipple on Data's body just to mess people who would see him naked.

[–] Odinkirk@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 9 months ago

Then he has a perfect excuse to hunt down Section 31 agents while trying to establish control of a new clean energy source. And he won't be fooled by an agent pretending to be a statue. Also he can assemble and disassemble his golden phaser faster than most people can blink.

Damn, I wish I had the writing chops to run with this.

[–] lorez@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

And Dr Han Fastolfe...ehm Soong

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 23 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Computer ... give me a list of memes from 21st century earth

... Personal screen explodes ...

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Four hours after the inquiry the computer is still lagging just trying to collect it all.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 13 points 9 months ago

Red Alert!!!! ... Computer is diverting power from life support! .... the warp core is failing and being drained of power ... lights and control panels all across the ship start flickering and become non functional

[–] IzzyData@lemmy.ml 21 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Computer. Please list all of Commander Riker's search queries.

which galaxy is the samsung galaxy

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 15 points 9 months ago (2 children)

One is for tuning the radio

[–] Aggravationstation@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The other regulates body temperature

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

KRYTEN! One day we will have Jazz FM in the ready room

[–] Ddhuud@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I found the Pulaski.

[–] armus@startrek.website 11 points 9 months ago

Data has nipples Greg, could you milk him?

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 11 points 9 months ago

They are programmed for maximum pleasure.

[–] PolPotPie@hexbear.net 10 points 9 months ago

so tasha yar has something to pinch during the naked time

[–] thecrotch@sh.itjust.works 9 points 9 months ago

There's a mastadon account called "rikers search history" that addresses this question

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] taanegl@beehaw.org 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

There's no photo evidence of it I can find, and I've been given a good reason to search for "start trek data nipples". You all saw it. This was justified.

But seeing as some people are super insistent, I'll have to conclude that it's A CONSPIRACY!!!

Birds aren't real, the earth is hollow and Data has no nipples!

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

The burden of proof is on those claiming Data has nipples. Them's the rules.

[–] shiveyarbles@beehaw.org 7 points 9 months ago

Nipples are erogenous zones , Jim

[–] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I mean, I dunno, why does he have anything?
Why does he have a nose?

[–] nxdefiant@startrek.website 1 points 9 months ago

canonical answer? Vanity is practically a genetic trait of the Soongs.

[–] DestroyerOfWorlds@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I just assumed they were for machine milk. I bet one is chocolate. Think about it.

[–] StraySojourner@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Vex milk like in Destiny 2 lmfaoooo

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Tiny parabolic antennas.

[–] radix@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

Dr. Soong is a narcissist. He created life in his image.

[–] CeruleanRuin@lemmings.world 3 points 9 months ago

I'll do you one better: Where does Data have nipples?

[–] kleenbhole@lemy.lol 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I have no evidence that he does

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

I'd like you to tell me how else you expect him to feed Lal.
