I really like Zorin as a beginner's distro. It's based on Ubuntu so most everything is designed to work with it without learning a whole new command line tool, but it doesn't try to hide the Linuxey stuff and mimic windows. On top of that it's just very polished.
A better comparison would be energy utilized per user, in which case the energy requirements for Bitcoin are miles and miles ahead of what the average person produces using a computer in the same amount of time. Even a gamer, playing 4k 120fps ray traced games 12 hours a day would use a fraction of the energy of someone mining bitcoin.
I had a similar thought. So far Disco (unlike in "The Chase") has implied that the progenitors seeded all life. I have a feeling it's meant to throw us off the trail a bit.
Yeah totally. I think the glibness is coming from a place of experience. Like he knows Culber will get there eventually, but there are no words that will help. Like the whole trying to tell a queer teenager "it gets better" thing.
I liked that at no point Burhnam spoke down to the town leader dude by going "actually yes we are gods now open the door I'll explain later" even though in the short-term it would have been faster.
idk Stamets seemed pretty receptive and understanding, I think Culber was moreso unsure because he sees himself as a "man with all the answers" and didn't like the vulnerability that came with showing his partner a side that's unsure and not confident. That's how it seemed to me at least.
Culber's newfound spirituality arc felt kinda shoehorned in as an odd piece of character development in a show that's about to end. I actually initially really enjoyed that he felt weird about hosting a Trill spirit (Trek has a habit of stuff getting right back to normal after a traumatic experience) but it's dragged on without a clear direction as to what it means. I have to assume it will become relevant to the main plot at some point. Discovery surely wouldn't leave weird thread dangling, right? Right?
The whole idea of a humanoid habitat built around a semi-functioning weather control network was cool. Though I would have loved to have seen the dead civilization around the tower they eventually go to!

Fun fact, "Riker" is actually pronounced fee-yet-ee
