Give Amtrak the right of way on all tracks… is the demand I would make if I were the transportation secretary.

Alas, I am not.

“Something changed” is an off ramp for those who are in too deep to back out without a mental crisis caused by accepting reality. More then they deserve, but it’s a way out while saving face.

SG1 is a great example of a show that has a great ending, and then was renewed like twice after it should have ended.

You’ll get like 3 or 4 good seasons out of Atlantis. It’s fun. The show runs into issues near the end with some poor writing and a main character dropping off. Although I loved the actors who came in later on, it wasn’t enough to resolve some bad plots. Worth a watch though, the show wraps nicely… unlike Stargate Universe…

Universe had promise, but it didn’t get a fair run. They also had a scene that pushed with one character death being a bit too much for me, which kind of fits with the realist / dark / edgy vibe they were going for. Worth a watch if you’re okay knowing it doesn’t have a real ending and want more universe building, otherwise skip it.

Skip the SG1 “movies” that come after the series.

There was a TV movie created (called origins?) that takes place decades before the series. I recall that being a fun watch.

Ah, yes… transitions are lovely, and modern CSS is quite the magician. But really, must the author sneer so theatrically at SPAs? His disdain bleeds through every paragraph. One might almost suspect he’s less interested in performance… and more in winning an argument.

Wait a second… didn’t he have a thing for Sarah Silverman?

Eh, let’s swap air density for deflectors, and drag for the warp bubble.

But… do you need deflectors at warp? Isn’t the bubble folding space around the obstacles you’d typically need deflectors for?

That… and the damage to subspace caused by speeds over Warp 5, which soon gets forgotten about.

Didn’t read the article, I just assumed this was the answer…

Whoops. Auto correct. Parent, not patent. I have a parent who keeps getting their machine infected with garbage.

I’ve been considering putting a parent on Fedora Kinoite. Less to break, and they understand the App Store concept so just using flatpacks isn’t far fetched for them.

(edit: parent, not patent. Curse you autocorrect!)
