Happenstance

Higher warp decreases the dylithium quicker and the engines can’t handle it for a sustained time. I’m happy enough with them still wanting to be “Starfleet” and explore. It’ll still gonna take decades regardless. Plus they aren’t gonna find any other, quicker ways back if they ignore everything. They get flung forward a few times during the trip and never would have managed that if they’d stuck to one straight path, ignoring everything else.

That's definitely my hope.

Who are you talking to? I just see a blank quote box

I see Germany's Head Coach has announced he will be leaving after the Euros. I wonder if Klopp will take up the job and use this as an excuse to leave Liverpool. Personally I would prefer him to stay but who knows what will happen given our current form.

The real triforce is the friends we made along the way

Yeah they kind of dropped the ball with Kes telling them about Year of Hell. I think there might be one throwaway line but even that I'm not sure on. One of the relaunch Voyager books revisits all the Krenim stuff so I might be thinking of that.

I think its what people have figured out the Youtube algorithm automatically picks out and promotes. I've seen a couple of Youtubers who have thumbnails like that talk about how they hate doing them but if you want to get your video seen these days then that's what you have to do. Seems shitty.

Found out that our Head of ICT passed away this weekend. He was diagnosed with inoperable cancer late November last year and it’s been heartbreaking seeing how quickly he went downhill since then. It’s the kids first day back tomorrow as well so while I’m sure their parents will have told them by now I expect they’ll still be upset ☹️

I’ve got the earlier gen version of that and I love it. Don’t think I’d want to go back to regularly shaped mice now.

Just so everyone keeps watching, there is a mid credits scene and an after credits scene in the finale.

Move house

Oh yeah I’ve no doubt I can do it. It’s just frustrating how much further along we could have been with this if I’d actually been allowed to work on it from the beginning.

As expected I had a meeting today after being un-furloughed and was immediately told I'd be taking charge of our big IT transfer this year. Nothing wrong with that in itself but still drives me nuts that I was furloughed during the initial stages of all of this so I now know nothing of what's gone on or how far we are and will spend the first few weeks playing catch up.

They were founded by 3 devs from Cryptic Studios.

Yeah it was when Garrett Wang got voted one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world by People Magazine that they decided to keep him on. I hadn’t heard about substance abuse stuff during the show but she definitely suffered afterwards. I remember the story from a few years ago of her flashing some kids in front of her house. She’s definitely had it rough. Kate Mulgrew also took out all of her frustrations of how Kes was removed onto Jeri Ryan and made her time working on Voyager hell.

The footage definitely has that “too good” look to it that a lot of games have early on. I doubt it will look that good by release.

Voyager documentary crowdfunding campaign has been started from the same guys as the DS9 one https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-star-trek-voyager-documentary#/

Yeah it was more in hand to hand, one on one fights where they should have just been thrown aside like rag dolls. If we want to see losses though, just look at the Enterprise security under Worf. Not sure they ever had a win 😆

Starfleet teaches their crews a little too well sometimes. It’s a pet peeve of mine, especially in DS9 where you see Sisko and his mates taking on Klingons or Jem’hadar, supposedly some of the most vicious warriors in the Galaxy and beating them easily. Let’s just say that the Maqui are the weak link for Voyager and were never taught the double fist starfleet technique.

The Samsung S20 fe range that @Goafer got recently could be another good one for price and size. I’ve got the Note 20 Ultra from that same Samsung generation, too big for your needs but I can say it was a good group of phones.
