As a fan of mysteries, my mind tends to clasp onto details that writers felt important enough to mention, but had no bearing on the plot up to this point.

The fact that the ship Tendi recovered was a “medical frigate” triggered such an alarm in my head. Yes the ship was able to gas the Blue Orions, but that’s hardly a feature unique to medical ships.

We Know:

• Tendi wants to come back to help raise her niece.
• Tendi wants to be a captain
• The finale is going to have some tear jerking moments
• This is the last season.

I think we’re being prepped for the main cast to go their separate ways, not unlike the DS9 finale.

We’ve had some foreshadowing with Freeman and Starbase 80. I wonder if the finale might end with her being posted there, as an admiral. Fix it up, that sort of thing, rather than an exile.

I really want the S5 set, and the S1 poster.

Not really sold on a full set at the moment.

No. They’re aiming for that regardless.

Actually, I didn’t know. Never heard it used in an offensive context before today. But I’ll edit my comment just the same.

Airbags, Anti lock Brakes, and hopefully leg room are probably bonuses too.

Eeh.

While I agree with the sentiment, I think we’re in this situation because of the current medical climate.

• You call an ambulance? You get charged an arm and a leg.

• You take yourself to the hospital, you get charged an arm and a leg.

• You get medical insurance, and you’re somehow even further behind because it’s their priority to find reasons to deny having to give you money back,

The current system does not work. As a consequence, people are attempting, however incompetently, to take their care into their own hands.

Fix why folks are resorting to this, and this should stop being an issue, or at least stop gaining traction.

Butter used to be dyed yellow. Now no one bats an eye that it’s off white.

It takes time, but new normals take over.

If we go by the gap between Strange New Worlds beginning filming, and S1’s release, we could see Academy around November of next year.

I feel like Dennis the buffer buff from the Lower Decks S3 Premiere was intended to be O’Brien, (Transporter enthusiast, war veteran) but for whatever reason it didn’t pan out…

… which I honestly felt worked out for the best. Dennis was like my grandpa.

Dude, you’re missing out then. I was dubious going in, but Time Lord Wesley was the absolute delight I didn’t know I needed. Wheaton’s performance was probably leagues better than in TNG.

Is that last one granting access to closed APIs?

That’s a double edged sword if I ever heard one.

Not impossible. Freeman was effectively the villain for S1 of Lower Decks, despite clearly being one of the good guys.

And Prodigy demonstrates how a personal vendetta can net some kids a nemesis, despite largely minding their own business.

I would recommend looking into a USB Ethernet adapter.

I liked to use a three tiered approach…

Back when we could jailbreak our iPhones I’d use this and overwrite the system’s hosts file. I still use it on my Mac, even if I can’t on iOS anymore.

A VPN is an excellent solution, but when selecting one, you have to read the privacy policy and NOT give the policy the benefit of the doubt. I’ve seen a few that give themselves permission to share your info while making it sound reasonable. I use lockdown personally.

For Safari Extensions, 1Blocker is what ai currently use.

Star Fox tends to launch at the end of a console’s life… so there’s that maybe.

Sakurai has been up to something… probably the next Smash, but I can always dream it’s a new or even remade Kid Icarus.

And probably some last minute WiiU ports.

Metroid Prime 4 is probably too high profile to leave to the switch… (and Mario hasn’t had a launch title since the N64, maybe GCN at a stretch) but they could always pull a Twilight Princess I suppose.

So $9K?

For the layman, that’s a lot, but for Trump?

This reads like a damage control spin.

We’re losing, but actually winning!

This is a large reason why I dreaded Apple making iOS apps a priority for the Mac. Everything wrong about the mobile model becomes a first class citizen.

Yeah… there were a bunch of issues with the Virtual Boy.

A Sudo 3D experience on hardware that couldn’t handle 3D graphics, needed to be setup on a table, and a color palette that made the GameBoy seem high fidelity, never mind the red was horrid to stare at for too long.

It really was ahead of its time… in all the wrong ways.

I suspect, nothing less than Nintendo, Sony, or Microsoft going all in on their next generation console would be enough to bring VR mainstream. As in, the VR being the primary way to play.

Of the three, I can’t see Sony or Microsoft doing it.

Maybe Nintendo, as doing weird stuff is kinda their thing, but even that’s doubtful.
