He ain't called "partially functional" Data.

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 4 points 1 year 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?

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?

Because he’s fully functional.

AND ANATOMICALLY CORRECT

[–] Cylusthevirus@kbin.social 27 points 1 year ago (1 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 12 points 1 year 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 1 year 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.

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

... Personal screen explodes ...

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 year 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 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

One is for tuning the radio

[–] Aggravationstation@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The other regulates body temperature

[–] armus@startrek.website 10 points 1 year ago

Data has nipples Greg, could you milk him?

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

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

[–] nxdefiant@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] PolPotPie@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

so tasha yar has something to pinch during the naked time

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 1 year ago

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

[–] thecrotch@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

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

[–] shiveyarbles@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

Nipples are erogenous zones , Jim

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

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

[–] StraySojourner@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago
