    Well, he got his mention in Star Trek as one of the great people to will have advanced humanity, so I guess after having that had crossed off his list he could just do something different next.

        DIS S01E04

        How do you wanna be remembered in history? Alongside the Wright Brothers, Elon Musk, Zefram Cochrane? Or as a failed fungus expert? A selfish little man who put the survival of his own ego before the lives of others.

            It was said by Lorca, a character from the evil Mirror Universe. So although it wasn’t intended at the time, the case could be made that we was accidentally outing himself as being from that universe since where else would Musk be remembered positively?

            Currently doing a DIS rewatch. Not a big fan but not on the hate train either. But man, my intestines cramped from the cringe when that scene popped up.

          I choose to believe that that is not a list of three similar things, but a list of different ways to be remembered.

          Do you want to be remembered as dilettante competing in a crowded field who managed to have the right combination of skill and luck?

          Do you want to be remembered as the one collosal idiot with a cult of personality, who claimed to work for humanity but only ever dipped us into a kessler syndrome and helped set the conditions for the Bell Riots?

          Do you want to be remwmbered as the inventor of a revolutionary technology in desperate times that single-handedly averted the doomed fate of humanity?
