The music, in whatever that alien language was (not the original German) is a small stroke of genius...

For the rest of the show I have absolutely no idea what to think of it. It is all over the place, it looks great, feels like The Goonies In Space, but it's also a new take on a kids show like the Ewok Adventure movies and I have serious doubts that currently a Star Wars for very young kids will make it great again....

Perhaps in 20 years a group of folks will see this as their new Goonies, but that does nothing for the current generation of fans.... We do exist, no matter how stubbornly Lucasfilm is trying to get rid of us.

I do applaud them for trying new things, but the new things should come when you have properly and successfully rounded off the old things ... now it feels like Lucasfilm is just shooting randomly with new bits hoping it'll catch a hit somewhere no matter the costs, as long as they don't need to make "legacy" Star Wars.

This is expensive cgi, it screams it. Not quite sure why they made it but someone needs to be convinced of something for sure.

(Just compare it to any footage of SpaceX landings, this video is far to clean, the sky alone is "perfect")

Not sure if I am reading it correctly. But what ip adress is your given to your pc?

It reads to me like you have router 1 and 2 on router 1's network but your pc is on router 2's "internal" network... which must not be in the same 192.168.1.x range as is router 1's network.

Put router 1 under 192.168.2.x range Then Then Router 2 with 192.168.1.x adressing should work still, and the pc should be able to talk to the router-1 network.

They'll declare fraud and a stolen election anyway... The many lawsuits the republicans will fire up, almost assures that at the very least a handfull will get to the supreme court quickly, will be a certainty...

And, unless there is a shift somewhere, the supreme court will proclaim that there is enough suspicion of shenanigans against a trump win that they'll just decide amongst themselves who will win the election, ignoring the "people's" vote altogether...

Perhaps the military is willing to hold the supreme court accountable, because I do not see anyone else able to do it right now.

Wouldn't it be immensely entertaining if the day after the election all current supreme court justices had vanished?

Thank you for elaborating on the backstory, seems I did not know half of the past of the case.

Tried a short google but there was no old in depth information about the case back then.

All in all it is at least a strange thing that the people around him thought it was a good idea for him to attend the olympics and enabled him to do it.

Well yes ofcourse, I kinda forgot that's not always to be taken for granted :-]

"Violation of the Logan Act is a felony, punishable with imprisonment for up to three years."

I can only say: Lock him up!

I am not sure where you got the torture for days from, there was none of that mentioned in the case, nor what he was sentenced for.

This is a bit of an interesting conundrum ...

Granted, I do not know the details of the crime for which he plead guilty and was sentenced. Was it a violent rape? Or was it a concensual get together but she was far to young and he was slapped hard for it? Now I don't condone it either way but it might give nuance to how he feels about it.

On one side, he, and society overall see it as he served his sentence (not all of it but that is not his fault) and is rehabilitated, he made changes to his life after that and made sure he is not near minors alone again, now even has a family of his own.

But, I really think it's wrong to think rehabilitation means you can stand on a podium for admiration, or be in a place that strives for excellence in rhe public eye.

This is where he and the people around him should have realized that, no, no matter how good he is in his sport, he should just not be a competitor in the olympics as a shining example of greatness.

Rehabilitation means to be allowed back into society, in a menial job out of view and not in a spotlight of any kind.

It is definitely not a full reset on your life and you can do whatever, thinking people mostly forgot what you did.

So the bullying boo's are quite justified imo and he should have expected this backlash because he sought the spotlight and admiration for his greatness in sport. And it shows he thought it a deserved thing for his ego following the years of hardship he went through after making a big mistake when he was young.
