One thing that suggests Broken Mirror’s mirror universe is the prime one is the uniforms borrow a lot of conventions from the IDW TNG Mirror comics, which sorts out a way the empire resurges.
It depends. The Cerritos is passingly mentioned in Prodigy, which suggests at least one version (probably ours) of the Cerritos is in the prime timeline.
I feel like I’ve been pulled off Ketracel white cold turkey. So many good episodes. My ultimate conclusion is the best episode is probably season 2 finale, with season 4 finale very close behind.
The Rutherford thing was weird - they could have written in a bit more foreshadowing. I’m gonna tell myself it’s a way to make Eugene Cordero’s makeup easier for a live action film. 😉
I think your Adobe comment isn't quite right. I have two family members who are professional photographers and use Photoshop; Photoshop is so important to their workflow they can't give it up just to use Linux. They thus stick with Windows (though one's work had them using Macs for a bit, so they see it as acceptable).
In contrast, although I sometimes used Photoshop in hobbies (a euphemism for memes), I never used any features so specific to Photoshop that I couldn't just replace it with a combination of Inkscape and GIMP.
I think the truth is as much as I hate Adobe, Photoshop is the best at what it does right now compared to competitors; GIMP 3.0 has a dismal UI and a weaker feature set, and the latter is largely true of a lot of the web-based editors as well.
This episode almost gives me Last Airbender "Tales of Ba Sing Se" vibes. It was especially nice to get to check in on a bunch of regular side characters for what might be the last time.
At the end of the episode, I was like, "Oh my gosh! It's that one random cadet!"
I also chuckled at Shax's conflict; I thought they were going to reveal he had been living with some sort of engramic virus or something after an accident.
Yay to season 4.
