I learned this when I was buying beer, walked into a free-standing display, and somehow exploded one of the cans I was carrying. The cashier put the remaining three in a box to clean up and sell later.
That's not a good look for Pulaski - just standing there like she's guarding the door or waiting for an order.
Yeah, I think we mostly liked that place for the donuts before those got worse too. Now they're even worse than that. Any random grocery store with a bakery makes better donuts that Tim's.
Meanwhile McDonald's makes pretty tasty generic dark roast, and they sell it dirt cheap.
McDonald's has Tim Hortons' old supplier. They don't have the same blend, and probably not exactly the same procedure for brewing it. The McDonald's coffee is much better than Tim's ever was since at least ~2000 when I first tried it.
Yeah, I've spent hundreds of hours in Daggerfall and never got far with the story, but I did figure out how to fly in the void outside the dungeons and shoot the really hard monsters with arrows! Daggerfall is so ridiculously big it probably has hundreds of towns that have only ever been visited by one obsessive kid who made a point to click on them all.
TNG had some movies (bald guy on the poster) and they were written by people who didn’t like the show for people who didn’t watch the show. You have to turn your brain off, but they’re well-directed.
LOL I'm stealing this to use as my IRL description of those films. I wish it wasn't true, but it is.
It looks like they also made it look Roman as a reference to Bread and Circuses.
The arrangement of the music in the restaurant felt more TMP than TNG.
There was some issue with the achievements for those of us who played the early launch. I'm playing the Steam version, but it thinks I never went to space or joined Constellation despite me having them for things like quests and killing 300 creatures.
The GotY version of Morrowind feels less buggy than the original release. For example, some older PC versions frequently crashed because of some pointer error in the UI. The game detected this and created crash-recovery savegames like what MS Office does for your documents.
Alien. It was well made and it aged well. I'm a sucker for scary, atmospheric films.
Because there aren't a lot of Kelseys on TV in the USA. Same reason I get a weird vibe about characters like Liam Shaw. (After the events of PIC season 3 I still think he's punchable.) ... Firefox doesn't think punchable is a word. Firefox is wrong.
My oldest niece is 9. Last year I said something about Star Trek and she said, "Star Trek is awful." I really need to ask what trek she's seen and why she thinks it's awful. She doesn't seem to be a sci-fi fan, but that's the only comment I've ever heard about Star Trek from someone her age. I'm very curious now.
This seems more apparent with Star Wars. As a child of the 80s I always preferred the original trilogy, but kids who grew up ~10 years after me seem to prefer the prequels. Do even younger kids prefer the new trilogy that most of us seem to dislike? I need to ask some of them.
Anyway, Prodigy is pretty great. I'm disappointed more people didn't give it a chance to start with. I'll readily admit I'm not a fan of Discovery and Picard, but I watched them all the way through, hoping for improvement, and at least have a good idea why I don't like them. I think it's worth trying anything that tries to be Star Trek.
If my friend and I have time at the same time this week we need to catch up on "Foundation" and "What We Do in the Shadows."
Our previous thursday sci-fi binges have included rewatches of TOS and Red Dwarf.
CBS killed it, but some (all?) of them are working with OTOY and the Roddenberry Archive now. They had a site up a few months ago where you could walk around the bridge of nearly every iteration of every Enterprise. There were about 30 of them, including speculative designs for some early concepts for the Enterprise.
They haven't said anything about making a full-scale Ent-D yet, but several of their videos on YouTube show glimpses of a full-scale 1701 refit.
Yeah, the part that puzzled Geordi was the transporter was able to hold a pattern for nearly 80 years. SNW shows M'Benga had to pull his daughter out periodically to keep her pattern from degrading.
Musicals aren't my favourite thing, but sometimes they're awesome. If any Trek can pull off musical it's SNW.
I hope it gives everyone something to do. Most of the time Star Trek is best when it's an ensemble show. This is one of the reasons episodes like Cause and Effect are my favourites: everyone works to solve a problem. That's the future, or at least the work environment I want.
The episode where Cisco [sic] plays a 20th century sci-fi writer is Emmy-worthy. I haven’t seen much DS9, but if it’s all that good I’m missing out.
It's not all that good (a few are pretty bad even), but there's a lot of excellent TV in DS9.
Modern TV is so expensive to make that a flashy show like SNW is doing well if it can average ten episodes per year. On that basis alone I want them to do new stories. I wish they would lean a little less on TOS sometimes too. Maybe then they'd have time to write some scenes for Ortegas.
