[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago* (2 children) Personally, I’m counting on Zephram Cochran flagging down some Vulcans to help us out. Rebuilding should take 100 years tops permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) What if Cochran turns out to be a drunk disillusioned Musk in this timeline? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] gregorum@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Wasn’t he kinda in that timeline? But he had Lilly to keep him in line, and I wouldn’t want to cross her! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) He was a selfish drunk, but he had the spirit where it counts.
