Could’ve sworn Data was built specifically to be that way because the prior model unnerved people, and also conspired to kill an entire camp of federation colonists.

Correct. Lore was too human in some ways, but he lacked empathy.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

You can't have empathy if you don't have emotions.

[-] roofuskit@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Lore had anger, hatred, jealousy, etc... plenty of emotions.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Didn't he only get those later after he stole the emotion chip from Data?

[-] crusty@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 5 months ago

He stole it to get access to more emotions and to try and fix his defective ones iirc

Ah okay. It has been a few years since I last watched it.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
