Bonehead , in Tech Billionaires Need to Stop Trying to Make the Science Fiction They Grew Up on Real

All I want is for one of these super rich fucks to start obsessing about preserving Earth and building massive carbon capture plants that also generate clean drinking water from the air. Dump billions into pulse fusion reactors and build them into every carbon capture plant. Create a stable biodome...right here, on Earth. And use the entire planet for the experiment. Can someone please get on that?

You don't get super rich by thinking of others.

RustyShackleford , in Amazon Will Inject Ads Into Prime Video Starting Jan. 29th

They must want people to cancel, because this is how you get people to cancel. I’m using Amazon less for shipping, there’s so many knockoffs these days, I’m not interested in returns.

SpaceX will be colonizing Mars before Artemis launches at the rate of all these delays.

Jon Stewart is the Millennial Walter Cronkite.

I just wish he'd have gotten into politics.

But I cant blame him after the hit job Al Franken got for being a progressive outsider.

breckenedge ,

Al Franken had a conscience. When called on his mysoginy, he did the honorable thing and resigned. Sadly there are no more politicians like him.

givesomefucks ,

You have zero idea what happened apparently....

Not sure what you mean by this actually. . .

I didn't know it existed. I like it.

Squibbles , in A new study suggests that the amount of oxygen on Europa is on the lower end of previous estimates.The moon may be inhabitable.

There seems to be an error in the thumbnail. That's the back of Darth vaders head.

Scrof , in NATO Explains Why The Theme For ‘Star Trek: First Contact’ Was Played At Sweden’s Induction Ceremony

Good job, whomever decided on this piece is definitely a man or a woman of culture. First Contact is one my favourite sci-fi movies of all time too!

I'm just curious...is there any interest in discussing DW episodes in a startrek.website community?

I really hope this new Doctor is good because 12 and 13 were kind of crap.

Oh boy, I cannot get behind that Capaldi slander.

The Chibnall/Whittaker era...I don't think they're are many people who would say it's their favourite, but there were at least a few pretty good installments in there.

askryan ,

I don't know how you could get past Capaldi's first series and not see what an incredible Doctor he is.

I tried so hard to like things in the Chibnall era –– I was so excited when Whittaker was cast and I think she did the best she could -- but after reading Elizabeth Sandifer's evisceration of the Chibnall ethos in her piece on Kerblam! (which I think also applies to ENT, tbh) I think I've come to terms with the fact that I'm not really going to get there.

At the same time, "Demons of the Punjab" is probably a top 10 episode for me, I really love it.

"It Takes You Away" is delightfully weird, the New Years specials are generally pretty solid, "Fugitive of the Judoon" is pretty good even though the greater arc-stuff is not, and I have good memories of "The Haunting of Villa Diodati" and "Can You Hear Me?" even though I haven't revisited them since the first run.

Kaput , in Meet AdVon, the AI-Powered Content Monster Infecting the Media Industry

I can't find product comparing article that are not ai anymore. I noticed it while shopping for a cellphone. Every site had not only 90% same text, they even had the same hallucinated specifications errors. Like non existent features or wrong RAM sizes. AI overuse sucks. Hopefully we figure out how to properly use it soon.

Eheran ,

It is not like it was exactly the same 5 years ago... The lazy "journalists" are the issue.

The problem isn’t lazy journalists, it’s copywriters and the fact they’re advertisement have been allowed to occupy the same space as articles

Makeitstop , in Meet AdVon, the AI-Powered Content Monster Infecting the Media Industry

They are generating "reviews" which have absolutely no basis in reality, for products they have had 0 interaction with. They are deceiving consumers in order to gain a financial benefit. This is fraud, they belong in prison.

Imagine how quickly search results would improve if shitheads like this were getting sued and arrested on a regular basis.

I'm not sure when I'm actually going to be able to watch them, but I'm looking forward to the full Ncuti Gatwa experience!
