Looking at the cpt in panel 2 ... does he seriously have to manually push a PTT to tell his brain-connected implant to start transmitting? Which should probably involve selecting (a) specific recipient(s) beforehand?
(Yes, I remember Gharr pressing buttons on his on page 127, but that was a complete shutdown.)
I like the good up-close look at the holo-projector drone. Can it make a 3D projection with just one projector(drone) or does it need multiple? Would the projection with one drone just be a flat 2D plane?
And the Raharr use triangular & snubbed triangular plugs, I suspect these are like USB ports, but where our ports had 1 or 2 ways to plug them in, they have 3.
Also a 1½ second comms-delay is better than I got with Zoom and such during the plague era.
I suspect the Raharr need to be careful when walking behind Raharr sitting in chairs, as to not step on tails.
Looks off-equilateral enough that one couldn't connect it wrong way round. I wonder what the Alliance calls that connector standard.
Also I like how Quantum's hologram is blurry when everything else is sharp. Shows how e's having to deal with a kludged setup due to all the security restrictions.

The names of every species of the Alliance (besides Insectoids) are words taken directly from their respective native languages that they use to refer to themselves. They all have the same translation: "a human".

Hmmmm, not sure about that. We have "naturally triangular" connectors that are slightly (or not ...) shape-coded so as to fit only one way, too:

I think the blurry holo is due to the single projector, not being able to make a propper volume projection.
Raharr/Alliance Standard Projector Interface (RASPI)?
