@Nmyownworld Whenever I have solved some weird tech issue, my first instinct is to throw my hands up and shout "Qapla'!"
(It's the pose from the end of Goldeneye, so I am clearly aware of how quickly my fortune can turn.)

I’m thinking of Boimler practicing saying “qapla’” which is awesome.

He’s actually practicing saying nuQneh. nuqNeh means “what do you want” literally but is a form of greeting in klingon while Qapla’ means goodbye, good luck, or bon voyage.

Literally, Qapla’! is “Success!”
