    Default Beam Me Up!

    Forgot about that one. I have it in my VHS collection, but have not watched it in about 10 years. Time for a re-run.

    I read more about that on Reddit and it seems to be a misappropriation of the word, kinda like the whole "God Particle" thing. Still pretty cool though. Link for those interested https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/c...arth_to_orbit/

    They say they "teleported" a photo. I suspect they meant an image. The article references a "quantum Internet" indicating it's about data (but not 1439381908383-2.jpg) and not about objects.

    If you wield a large-enough hammer: precision isn't necessary!
    Unlike with transporters...
