  • Look. I have enjoyed the last season. But the show has never escaped its fatal flaw of being in its own way. The finale of season 4 was great Trek, and this season has been good.

    But it took how many months of retooling to give us the last season? And I appreciate finding a stride and having the show cancelled (as someone who will defend ENT constantly for this I’ll hear it all) but this isn’t the same case. They tried so many ways to make DIS work and it has hit and missed in different ways, but tying it to one story over the course of a whole season and making that the glue, and not allowing for other characters to be established, is still there. I still have no idea who the majority of the bridge crew are, and I feel there are characters that are overused and others that are criminally underused (can we just get a Reno spinoff please?)

    This is a swan song, but personally I’m glad it gets to end on a high note. But let’s see it for what it has been.
















  • “What should we do? Just PAY the developer for the feature? Nah, we’ll just continue to file lawsuits and eventually settle in the inevitable class action from buyers which will certainly not be more than what we would have spent just licensing it in the first place”

    Look, I’m not one for patent trolling, but this is pretty blatant on Apple’s end and as a Series 9 owner it’s annoying because it’s a feature I upgraded for that I’ll lose access to just because they don’t want to be told they’re wrong. Such corporate bullshit.
