Still have my CD copy, but wonder if I can download the patches still... Maybe time to dust it off, just to find it has suffered rot... 😭

They are likely waiting for the cartographers to finish their jobs.... Unless they were asked to resign... Who knows how this government functions at this point.

Waiting for the presidential cars to be replaced with cyber trucks.

I think the plan is if your in the US the name will change. I think. Something about USA being classified as a sensitive nation when before names didn't hurt us.

Backbone lost.

I started to watch prodigy, the first episode, but wasn't motivated enough to go beyond a few minutes. I should give it another try, as it's the only new star trek for the family to watch.

Strange new worlds might work, but due to how dark (lighting) and how real the effects look, this show is still not as family as the original shows.

What I'm looking for is something I know my kids can watch without being a helicopter parent.

It's hard to really describe, maybe I'm getting old.. 👴

Can we get some Star Trek I can watch with my kids around? I have to stick with classic trek (everything from Enterprise and earlier) as there isn't an option. Sure Prodigy does exist, but I don't know if I can get into that show myself.

Rant over...

They can make Section 31 content all they want, I don't care, just make it good enough to watch. Hell, just take the book series and make a mini series based on those stories.

Maybe they didn't watch it? I failed to get past 20 minutes.

I qualify a good sequel as a movie that can be enjoyed without having to watch the previous. Not that the previous isn't important, just not required.

Terminator 2 clearly fits into this category. As do a lot of sequels. Here is my short list:

• Terminator 2
• The Dark Knight
• Finding Dory
• Toy Story 2
• Spider Man 2 (Toby Maguire)

Do Casino Royal or Rogue One count for anyone?

You don't have the fear of the Alien and the tension from Ripley without the first movie.. in my view, but yes it is a totally didn't feeling movie otherwise.

Facebook is the only way for me to keep up with what's happening in my town. Lots of the older generation of people are on it and always post what's the best repair people, events or other news worthy things. Basically local news feed.

Yeah, the song I 2 I, from a goofy movie will take AI a while to get right.

What if it was The Gulf of the Atlantic

Sure you can convert the DVD to whatever codec, I have found the original mpeg stream to not be very compatible with my devices. When I did 264, it was more for speed. It's a 480 p/I mpeg2 stream, I don't think 265 is worth the extra CPU cycles for this case. This is also just an opinion. 👍

True about AC3 being left alone, but dts should be converted, I can't seem to get that to bitstream as nice as Dolby tracks.

I do reencode my uhd rips, to bring them down to 1080. I only have one 4k display and it's not worth the bandwidth to try and stream it for me.
