    The Orville

    The thing is, what else could they have done? What would you have done? I like that the series isn't preaching a particular choice and leaves it up to the viewer to decide.

    The Orville

    "I know Avis will protect his eternal soul." "Yeah, he's got the gold membership now. He's not waiting in ANY lines."

    Supernatural

    I think I stopped watching this around season 10? It was when Dean came back as a demon or something. Really don't feel like catching up. Can someone summarize what has happened since?

    The Good Place

    I'm beginning to wonder if the writers didn't really have a plan past the first season.

    The Orville

    Amazing episode. And the humor were genuinely funny. The Avis jokes had me rolling.

    Supergirl

    You know, that was actually a pretty bad-ass premiere. Lots cool Superman-esque action and poses going on.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Saying "Go" is not nearly as cool as "Engage!".

    The Orville

    One of the things I miss is the companionship and camaraderie found in TNG and SG1. Totally does not exist in Discovery.

    But but, that's what makes these shows fun!

    The Orville

    I agree, I think non paradoxical time travel can only exist if time travelers create alternate time lines upon their arrival. What should have happened, after the Orville destroyed the wormhole, is that Pria would've been stranded there.

    Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams

    I believe all episodes are based on Dick's short stories. One episode was far in the future where Earth no longer existed. It's been alright so far. Nothing mind-blowing, but entertaining for sure.

    The Gifted

    You're right, she does look quite similar. Yeah, show was alright. I'll tune in next week. Wonder if that kid is an omega-level mutant? Potentially ridiculously powerful if he can get his shit under control.

    The Orville

    Create a causality loop and encode into Isaac the way to break free of it. BAM.

    The Orville

    Did they explain why destroying the wormhole didn't get them all killed? Great episode.

    Lucifer

    Rick and Morty

    Yeah, finale was my least favorite of the entire series right next to "Get Schwifty". I mean, we already had a brainless action episode with Pickle Rick (which I really liked, actually).

    The Good Place

    That would be a funny twist if they're ALL in on it.

    Ghosted

    I had some good laughs. I'll definitely keep tuning in.

    Nathan For You

    I thought it was pretty damn funny. That one guy looked shockingly like a young Jim Carrey. But anyway, didn't he commit fraud? Maybe Michael Richards gave him permission. Otherwise I imagine he could most certainly sue.

    The Orville

    Ah, they don't make sci-fi stories like this anymore. Classic Star Trek.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Am I the only one that really liked the captain of the Shenzhou, Philippa Georgiou? I could've seen the series work just fine with her and have the focal point be the first officer. Very disappointed to see her die (ALTHOUGH they didn't recover the body so, hey, maybe the Klingons will patch...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    So watched the first two episodes. My initial reaction to some of the dumb shit at the beginning of ep 1 echoes what others have said. However, once everything started rolling? I think Discovery is pretty awesome so far. I really love the visuals and I thought episode 2 was entertaining as...

    Tablets

    Alright, tired of fucking around with cheap tablets. Which Andriod tablet is the closest to an iPad performance-wise? Looking for something in the 10" range.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Yeah, I think those days are long past. No one is going to get a job in front-end development if that's the only thing they can do. You need to know one of the Javascript and CSS frameworks: React, Angular, VueJs, Bootstrap, Foundation, Material, etc. etc. All of those are complicated as hell...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Honestly, I don't know what better technology there is to use in our case. We need a complete framework plus widget library. We can't be selectively pulling random libraries out there to fulfill specific needs. We needed a complete, cohesive solution. Or, in our case, using a technology that...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Haha WHAT? I'm sorry, client-side development is horribly complicated and difficult. I wish I could just do server-side development. That would be paradise.

    Home Improvement

    Putting this here since I don't see a 'legal' thread and it is home improvement... So, about two months ago I had my roof replaced with Lowes. They were having a nice 2-year, interest-free financing special plus they were about middle of the road as far as pricing goes. Roofers came out...

    The Orville

    I thought this episode was pretty decent. Some good jokes in there. You can tell the show is really trying to be Star Trek. Not sure how most people receive that but I'm okay with it.

    The Fermi Paradox -- Where is everybody?

    The reverse is also true. For however many civilizations that have the above limitations there would be an equal probability of the opposite. Same applies to the thought that some civilizations wouldn't bother to expand out from their home star. There would still be those who do. The...

    Smartphones

    My mother has an iPad. Every time I use it and open up Safari there are a trillion tabs open. Is there any way to have it automatically close opened tabs when Safari is closed?

    The Orville

    Maybe it's because I'm a huge Star Trek nerd but I actually quite enjoyed this. I suppose the early negative reviews kind of tempered my expectations of it not being completely a comedy but, honestly, I'm not sure how a pure comedy would work with this setting before getting old. If The...

    Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

    So where are these custom pawns coming from? Is it a player's main pawn? Because I can't create any pawn other than that.
