Yeah but the season 3 finale took it to a new extreme

the cruel irony is that the only reason that Kelpiens are even spacefaring is because Discovery intervened the previous season, in that regard Discovery caused the burn

Discovery also seems to employ the dimensional technology that the pod from the future employed on Enterprise, being much bigger on the inside

The Klingon merchant on Tulgana IV definitely has the Lursa and B'ETor sound going on, I'd be surprised if the voice actress wasn't wearing Klingon teeth

Found the millenial

millenial? Some of us are now in our forties. We grew up in the format wars

The Enterprise theme actually played over the end credits - was called "Archer's Theme"

sighs heavily in Australian

Yes endgame was good, but fuck if people aren't now comparing the "weekly episodes" to what was essentially the epic 2 part seaon finale.

I'd have thought it would have yellowed more than that, did you have to treat it to make it look so good?

I'm not defending negative nellies - but its is possible to enjoy something and still criticise it. You've attacked me in the past for having a minor criticism. I'm not going to block you over it, I just think twice about whether I want the hassle, but maybe that's just me

I assume it was because you were tracking down instances of Klingons hugging?

I liked the "He looks like Tom Paris" back and forth, I'm glad they didn't do something hokey like he's Tom Paris' cousin or something. I liked the flashback showing Mariner as the tag along first year, worked better than just telling us in the previous episode, that flashback probably should have been attached to episode 9.

I kept expecting William Boimler to show up before the end of the season, guess they're holding onto that thread for next year

They’re constantly expanding the Active Directory schema and adding a lot of cool new features to Active Directory

you mean by letting it rot and become a security nightmare while trying to force everyone to move over to azureAD/entraID?

that's the beauty of distros, those that want traditional package structure can still use a distro that does.

Even the current flatpak first distros like OSTree spins of Fedora (Silverblue, Kinoite et al) provide mutable containers for using any package format you like.

The flatpak size disadvantage is negligible in the age of terabytes

the issue is overstated as most flatpaks use the flatpak platform runtimes and share their own libraries in a similar manner to the host, yes its separate libraries, but its not dozens of disparate copies like some detractors of flatpak seem to state

whatever the new architecture ends up being, at some point we will see x86 relegated to a daughter board in the machine while we transition, or x86 will live in a datacenter and you'll buy time on a "cloud pc" like what microsoft will already sell you in azure

Sorry I didn't see a notification for this.

It's a different work flow installing software. Flatpak first mentality, then install stuff in a Toolbox container, if that doesn't work layer the rpm.

Being able to rebase has been helpful, I've based forward to rawhide a few times to try new packages and then rebase back to stable.

You lose things like being able to use packages out of copr, but used to only really use that to test new versions of KDE. However the devs created a branch for KDE testing anyway, so nothing lost.

Happy to answer any specific questions you might have

Microsoft is a cloud provider these days, Windows doesn't make enough money, that's why they are desperate to monetise already paying customers.

Azure/entra or whatever the fuck they call it this week is where the real money comes from

AGIMUS's drones were reminiscent of the drones from Arsenal of Freedom

Don't know if this counts - used Fedora KDE for about a decade and then last year moved to Fedora Kinoite. It's essentially the same, but is OSTree based and immutable. I like the solid base, the rebasing function and containers
