Cable stranding is a common way to get a metal splinter, but they already established that copper cables are not used on a ship (which I find just unrealistic, you can’t just wirelessly power and transmit everysingle thing on a ship).
Not really the right community for it.
Also, obligatory Fuck Nintendo
People would be mad, SteamOS and M$ itself are already giving people enough to ditch windows, doing such a thing would make it even worse. It’s just better to try and convince publishers to only focus on Windows
About Pike’s hair, am I wrong or is vulcanian Pike’s hair even more erected than human Pike?
You are right, with 20+ episodes it’s easier to have a common theme while still being episodic enough to have episodes that don’t advance the plot but are either funny or explore some unrelated theme. 10 episodes season work for a serialized series (like discovery), but an episodic 10 episodes series is a hybrid of the two and more difficult to pull throught.
However, I still think they did a good job, the season was fun and enjoyable, and I don’t really care there’s no “big picture plot”. After all, this is not telling the voyage of a ship lost in the galaxy or a multi-year war with a foreign dominion, it’s a character build-up story that will eventually become the original series, it’s a prequel and doesn’t try to be anything else. Surely I enjoyed it more than galaxy-destroying-threat-of-the-year discovery.
Also, even if some more “experimental” episodes may be a little failed, I can surely appreciate the attempt and, even if more boring or over the top, at least they are memorable, si they have value.
Never seen boomer humor referencing furries, grindr and trans people. Usually it’s about bosses, mondays and taxes
The entire episode, while enjoyable, was prettt rushed, if it was split in a two-parts season finale they would probably fit in more explaination scenes, like at least an aknowledgement from Batel and some more explaining/exploration of what she was.
The villain is “evil itself”, I don’t really see a way to not make it one-dimensional, he is literally one thing only.
From what I get it, the fantasy/hallucination wss made by Batel for herself and Pike, because she knew they would never see again andshe (somehow, I guess that’s part of the Beholder superpower?) constructed a fake world so they could, in some way, live their life together. That’s why Pike didn’t suffer the accident, and that’s why Bayel thanks him on her deathbed and tells him to open the door. She got her life together with him, it was time to get back to reality and become the Guardian.
That’s also why the falling star happears in the planet, she told him she would follow everywhere in his heart, and a falling star happears (“here I am” she says in the fantasy life).
The logic is telling Israel “your country is not welcome here, we don’t agree with you”, which is different from saying " your people are not welcome here", because only representative are affected
To defens themselves from president killers of course
A later NASA mission will attempt to collect the rover’s samples and bring them to Earth for closer analysis in laboratory conditions.
Damn I didn’t expect thats. Sounds cool as hell, hope they manage it.
People think this is a personal attack. It’s not (unless this guy actively supports his government). It’s sad that people suffer because of their government actions? Yes. Is it necessary? As a symbolic act of protest against a regime you don’t support, also yes.
Yeah, a hearth attack is an extreme case, but tiredness would be a pretty likely and frequent cause of incapacitation in my opinion.
Not a pilot, so of course I don’t know the kind of pressure in the cabin, but I would’ve guess it was normal?
Like I wouldn’t exxpect someone to be 100% vigilant 100% of the time, especially in long duration flights. That’s why there’s two pilots, if you are ona clear sky, no turbulence, perfectly calm conditions, I wouldn’t see much of a differrnce in them relaxing and chatting over coffee or just a 15 minutes power nap (not on 1 and a half hours long journey of course)
If you want a truly horrifying Vulcan smile, watch the original series pilot (The Cage)
A flase flag is exactly the opposite, in this case it would be a republican who shot this guy to have a pretext to persecute the left. Is he implying this?
But by augmenting him, Bashir became a super genius, so it wasn’t just to “relieve him”, they went a lot further
“Energizing the romulan rubber ducky” is not something I expected to hear on a kid’s show
Bro no need to victimize the poor guy, different people handle substances differently
