No multiplayer paywall, but they'll probably try to charge you some sort of subscription anyway that'll end up costing more in the long run.

I found four and a half vulcans the weakest episode in my opinion, but a friend of mine loved the episode. My biggest problem with the episode, other than why was it really necessary, was actually pointed out by Kirk in the episode. They didn't actually even act like Vulcans they were just dicks, Pike especially was uncharacteristically rude and would have never treated anyone the way he treated Spock in the episode.

Most of the season scored between 5-7/10 for me. Terrarium was an 8.5, Vulcans was a 4, This is Starfleet was a 3, but if it was filmed differently could have been so much better. I really this that This is Starfleet had one of the better stories and checks a lot of "Classic Trek" boxes for me.

This is the problem with modern TV shows. We only have 10 episode seasons now vs the 20+ long ones from the TNG era. If these were all episodes in a season that lasted 20 episodes I doubt we would be seeing as many complaints, but as it is 10 episodes does not leave much room for any change of pace mid season. This season, while in my opinion was quite well written, was a little all over the place and didn't really seem to have a lot of direction. It really bounced around a lot, which wouldn't be a problem as much if there was 20 episodes to work with, but when you only have 10 its hard to justify some of the "fun" or experimental episodes.

As an aside. My least favourite episode "This is Starfleet" was also my favourite story in the season and if it was shot as a normal episode I think would have probably be my favourite of the series so far. It really captured the "Classic Trek" vibe for me.

I feel like this could have been a great episode, if it wasn't a documentary and was just written as a normal episode. Most of the quirks of the documentary really distracted me and I felt like they got in the way a bit.

I do look forward to seeing Erika do more than just "Fly the ship," but I really wish it was literally anything other than the exact same thin La'an has been dealing with. She's talked about being on the Klingon front a lot, why not tie it into that. I do like seeing a slightly more chill La'an and really think her and Spock pair together well as friends, but I do hope they don't throw in more romance at spock with her.

Maybe we could get Captain Una? New ship and she could take the crew that we don't see in TOS with her. Possibly have Kirk and crew crossovers.

I didn't realize how truely frustrated I was with windows until I switched a few months ago. I realize now that most of my recent windows troubleshooting was trying to make windows stop doing things I didn't want it to. Now most of my Linux troubleshooting is just learning how to get Linux to do things I actually want it to do, which is actually quite satisfying.

Also I think Tesla stock went up a bit since this whole thing started. Muskrat might just be trying to distance himself from Trump to save Tesla's sales numbers.

I switched over about 2 months ago after I couldn't get an older game to play after a windows update and kinda just rage quit Windows. It was building for a while, but in the end it was just a little thing that brought it tumbling down. Game worked perfectly fine with proton without any problems or tinkering. I've only had trouble getting a couple games working, and neither are big deal breakers.

I haven't bought full price games in ages. Games are always released half finished now. Wait six months to a year until it goes on sale and they actually finish the game.

Yeah. I bought it at least 5 years ago as well for fairly cheap. I ended switching a few years ago because I had problems with my IP leaking, customer service wouldn't back to me, and I noticed the canary page went blank, so I assumed that something happened to them.

Haha. I too switched to Linux Mint last week. So far no regrets. I've actually enjoyed making everything I need to work. Especially because it seems to work better that on the operating system it was designed for. Strange.
