Here, I can make it worse. There are highschoolers now who’s parents hadn’t met yet when when Michael Jackson died.

Bab5 was still mostly humanoid, although two major, recurring species were very inhuman.

B5 also had almost no budget. A lot of the sets are TOS quality despite being made in the '90s.

The TCW was a network mandate. So was dumping the TCW.

It would specifically hurt Xbox, which I wouldn’t be sad about.

The French Revolution ate the nobles, sure, but then it ate itself, then went on to try to eat the rest of Europe. It was a loooong time before it had positive results.

Before Star Trek and Star Wars, Flash Gordon was the big sci-fi franchise.

Which is why Old Man Spock is the best vulcan. As he said, “Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end.” In his old age, he learned to understand and value the role emotion plays in our lives and how logic is best when it works together with emotion. That T’Lyn seems to have learned this from him specifically and is going down the same route makes me really happy.

The problem with Dear Doctor is that the premise is pure gibberish. Evolution isn’t an intelligent force that makes decisions, it’s not a predetermined path, species don’t go extinct to benefit others, and evolutionary changes don’t affect the entire population simultaneously. However, every one of those is treated as true for the episode and then they made it clear that the events were the inspiration for the creation of the Prime Directive. If not for that last part, it would probably be dismissed as yet another bad take on evolution from Trek, but that it’s specifically intended to be one of the most important moments in Starfleet history is what makes it stick out.

What’s more, his music is still getting radio play. He’s been dead for fifteen years, and his music was most popular thirty years ago, but one of your local radio stations probably played a few of his songs within the last week. That kind of staying power almost never happens outside of more niche genres. That he did it with pop is insane.

In the absence of a king, the stewards had the same power and authority as the kings and the position was hereditary. The stewards were effectively just a dynasty in the kingdom. Aragorn’s ascension to the throne didn’t really impact the way Gondor functioned.

The real republic is actually The Shire, which is consistently depicted as the best place on Middle-earth and the only place that regularly produces people capable of resisting the One Ring.

ReBoot somehow managed to get cancelled three times and revived twice. That third cancellation and its cliffhanger, though…

How do you prevent people from squeezing into your buffer?

I think anything newer should work though.

I’ve got a Ryzen 3700X and my computer told me it couldn’t do the upgrade, either.

Skipping 9 was due to a combination of marketting (“It’s nothing like 8 was, we swear! It’s not even 9, it’s 10!”) and ye olde third party software developers making the poor decision to query the OS name instead of the OS version to set some compatibility stuff.

It really bothers me that green is used for Wales instead of Ireland.

It does rhyme…

However, Reach’s tagline was, “From the beginning, you know the end,” so there was an expectation that everyone playing would know how it was going to pan out.

They don’t, because it’s a fundamental systemic flaw of the Order. Someone like Anakin was innevitable, and those people show up regularly within the knights. Dooku and Ventress had similar problems, and that’s just major figures contemporary to Anakin. The Inquisitors were others with similar issues, and even they are just from the small fraction of Jedi that survived the innitial purge.

It’s really not a coincidence that the most well adjusted Jedi spent so much time away from the Order.

The Xenoblade games. Probably Xenogears and Xenosaga, too, but I haven’t played those yet.
