“Bound” is one of my absolute favourite films.
Tooting in Deutsch, English, español
Originally from Berlin, now moving back from Zurich after >20 years abroad (ARG, UK, CH).
I like and care about:
Science, Math, IT, FOSS, parenting, fun, politics, books, 🏳️⚧️ things, music, film, cooking & food, some naughty stuff & much more.
What I most enjoy, is interaction with friendly people.
No DM please, unless we already know each other, or you have something important to tell!
And: #FckNzs!
“Bound” is one of my absolute favourite films.
This is actually true.
Discovery is far better than it is given credit for, but the endless useless speeches make you hate it.
My all-time favourite is Kubuntu.
Installation and use is as easy as it gets.
Killing tabs is mean and cruel!
However, even with 100s of them, you just need to jump into the address bar and type some letters of the tab’s address and Firefox will offer you to switch to it.
Otherwise, Discovery isn’t bad.
It has quite good characters, good actors and a compelling story arc.
I didn’t like the overload of visual effects, but this seems to be a thing of our time.
2/2
Picard was, IMO, not a TV series, but pure fan service. If it hadn’t been for Jeri Ryan, it wouldn’t have been watchable. The third season was the worst.
SNW was clearly made to not offend anybody. Solidly made, no experiments.
Just the right thing to keep an extremely conservative fan base happy.
Discovery had one (big) flaw:
Unnecessary dialogues!
Except for the episodes directed by Jonathan Frakes, they totally ignored the “Show, don’t tell” rule.
1/2
That’s actually a problem.
There is no backup for this collective memory outside the servers of this company.

I am so sorry for the tragedy that happened to you. I hope, you have people to be with you.

I’m glad, you liked my recommendation. Many people don’t get hooked until the 4th episode or so, so, if you’re not entirely convinced, give it some time.
(remember the 1st season of TNG?)
It’s not Star Trek, but in my opinion, the best SF series since DS9.
I don’t say “better”, because they are set in different subgenres, so at some point comparison fails.
Let’s put it like this: I am as much a fan of one as I am of the other.
There is this scene in the Expanse, when a ship suddenly slows down.
A very messy scene.

Firefox usage numbers are low globally, but not everywhere. E.g. in Germany, its market share is still above 10%. This includes many people without any tech background.

Das klingt doch alles ganz prima!

Same with reconfiguring space ships in flight. What a bs!
