You may be right, the more of Voyager I watch the more flexible each character appears in order to fit around what the story requires. Apart from Tom Paris repeatedly being an idiot, that's a constant.
We can agree to disagree and enjoy it on our own terms I guess. If I have been dismissive of your argument I would like to apologise, that was not my intention.
Not an obsession, I tuned out of watching Voyager when it was first on TV and I'm partway through a complete watch now ... she's simply my favorite character from the show, and given that Star Trek fans have a pleasant and active community here I thought it was a good choice. Perhaps I was mistaken.
Being interpreted as smug was not my intention, I thought I was simply stating my opinion with equal force to the poster above. How should I have responded?
Nice photo!
Also, I do love the Delta (and the Ebre in general, travelled a lot of it's length this year up in Aragón)
Picard was written by different people who needed different things from the characters, however there were occasional moments where her previous manerisms showed through.
A feral child who was not ASD could have been portrayed like Mowgli (or, for a more Star Trek reference point, Tuvok when he had brain damage). Seven gradually learns how to navigate human interaction (and how to smile, for instance) through studying and is surprised when it's occasionally useful, a non-ASD character could have learned through interpretation of people's reactions and would have sought socialisation rather than peace and quiet in a neatly ordered cargo bay (I'm led to believe that's how it works anyway).
You're completely right, there is obviously no deeper meaning to presenting a character who is a mature adult yet requires structured classes in order to learn how human beings socialise.

At 30: Tendi.
At 40: T'Lyn.
Now: politely staying home and posting on Lemmy.
It is a lisp, albeit on purpose ... to further confuse things in parts of Spain with different languages the shared words don't necessarily have that lisp!
Best thing would be to go to a Spanish speaking country for a holiday, once you've been forced to use it on strangers you'll loose your language anxiety and it gets much easier (I live in Spain and work in Spanish, I'm not very good, but also no longer worried about muddling through).
When was that? Last time I tried it was a couple of years ago.
As for the difference, outside of Spain the conjugation of Vosotros (you, plural) isn't used, but speaking to strangers is much more formal. Also, there's a lot of vocabulary differences which can be confusing for non-native speakers.
Good luck with your learning, it's a great language :-)
As with so much in life, it's best to read the manual first. It can get a little dry in places though, like any instruction manual, but I enjoyed all of it because I'm the sort of person who likes normal manuals, lol
Last time I looked it still did a weird mix of American and European Spanish, too
Do you know if Retroarch has controller support?
