Super Mario Odyssey. It's mostly extremely fun, controls well, with only occasional camera angles and poor checkpointing infuriation lighting its copybook.

He's already said he's retiring about three times. Then finds something he likes the look of and he's back. I mean, if he says it after every film, he might eventually be right!

I love this video. The escalating insanity is wonderful. I once got the Harder Drives music stuck in my head for about 2 days straight.

Is 16GB RAM "plenty?" I'm not so sure. It depends on what kind of development you're doing, what you're running locally, etc. My work laptop has 16 gigs hard capped, and I always wish I had more headroom. Obviously, budget matters, so that's a call for you to make, but 16 gigs is probably the smallest amount to call "enough" these days.

(Of course, it's also extremely easy to expand if you find you need more, so...)

Q is going to go public with it any day now, just you wait.

Can't speak to overall issues, and haven't watched it since it originally aired, but there was somewhat infamous friction between Julianna Margulies and Archie Panjabi, to the point where they would not appear in a scene with each other. The scene in the final episode (or near it, I don't exactly remember) in which they appear together at the bar is assembled from separately shot footage.

I think it mostly suffered from the standard network TV show issue of not having a real plan beyond "as many episodes as possible".

First two episodes are absolutely superb. Brilliant hook.

Immediately thought of this image.

That's like getting kicked out of the KKK for being too racist.

He's threatening in a way that Anthony Hopkins never could be (and to be fair, in a way he never tried to be). He's physically imposing to go with the mental acuity. Absolutely superb.

Hopkins is fantastic in the role, and deserves the plaudits, but like you, I feel like Mikkelson inhabited the role like nobody else has.

"Feared"? By who?

It crashed into a missile that was just looking at a cathedral.

I hope you're not implying that this might have been... intentional?😲

Disastrous space-leader or disastrous-space leader?

I had no idea about that at all - very clever!

The way you've shared a link to the settings is really cool - how did you do that? Manually create the links? Or something simpler?

Journey.

Sometimes I well up just thinking about it, let alone listening to it. Wonderful.

Even if you could prove it, it would still go badly in a lot of places in a lot of times.
