Dunno about you guys but I enjoyed the running game this season. Wanna see more runners try to beat a throw from a catcher with an arm.

Came here for the Discworld reference, was not disappointed.

He's gonna be 40, hasn't been good in a couple of years, already a strong HoF case. I don't think he plays a game for anyone but the Reds at this point.

Really? I use Arch native Steam and Proton no problem. You either use steam-runtime (uses built in Ubuntu runtime) or steam-native (expects Arch packages) but there is a meta package for pulling the runtime deps. Both have worked for me.

That said, Flatpak has come in clutch for me as well on the Steam Deck, and for things like Prism Launcher (modded Minecraft launcher) where you want to juggle multiple Java versions without needing to run archlinux-java between switching packs.

The Hayes code sucked, but the way directors needed to be creative to get around it was great. Modern directors could learn a lot about making romantic relationships smolder and using innuendo instead of adding cheap sex.

No, it didn't - I was exaggerating a bit. In the end it was a good plot point, I just find it really unlikely the alien scan would choose her unless he was majorly hung up.

It's always hilarious to me that Minuet was used as Will's great love in Future Imperfect. I get it's just a convenient plot device but damn Riker, you spent like a couple hours with a simulation and somehow it registers higher than Troi??

Mad God was incredible. I was blown away the first time I watched it.

First Contact is legit excellent. So are cats named Tuvok.

Seriously, they'll have to suck for a while before I can see them as anything but cheaters. This recent string of successes is all tainted.

Bugs and dialogue options that sound innocent but actually initiated romance (and should now be better marked). I was very confused when Wyll and Gale were so hot to trot when I spent all my time pining after Karlach. I was just trying to be friendly, guys.

I agree with this. Maybe this is a consequence of binge watching SG1/SGA over the course of 3-4 months, but their episodes ended up feeling very repetitive, formulaic, and too often leaned on Carter/Rodney being super geniuses to get them out of trouble. SGU was a much needed shake up and, even though it did get too soap opera drama sometimes, I appreciated that it kept that BSG back-to-the-wall energy up from episode to episode. It may not be as good as SG1/SGA, but it never dragged like those shows did mid-season.
