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.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Don't they keep redefining exactly how fast warp 10 is? I seem to recall that it keeps getting faster over the years
The Enterprise D Technical Manual that Sternbach and Okuda released, which was supposed to be about as canon as it gets, says warp 10 is infinite speed. Go figure.
Maybe it's Warp 9.9 that is ever increasing. I don't really remember, but I distinctly remember reading two different tech manuals describing the "fastest possible speed of any federation vessel" as two entirely different multiples of C, and Warp 10 being defined as the fastest possible speed.
