I probably should have made comments while watching the episodes, as I'm sure I am forgetting a lot of details, but Prodigy seems to have picked up where it left off with regard to the quality of its episodes.

End0fLine ,

I will say that the Voyager-A is a beautiful ship and I hope we get to see more of her.

Gonna sound racist but deal with it.

I constantly meet asian developers (Singapore , India, China, etc) with this edgelord personality. They come to American conferences and meetups, say some wild sexist shit, and someone has to politely let them know not to.

Some backtrack. Some apologize. Some literally freeze up and pretend like it didn't happen.

That last part is a face saving culture reaction. If you're feeling culturally sensitive the thing to do is just move on and see if they do it again.

Many of my guy coworkers have been (and are) sort of misogynistic, and homophobic (I'm in India). It makes me really uncomfortable. Might start reporting people to HR one day.

drathvedro ,

Just get to know HR first. They might be mysogynists themselves (even if they are female).

We do still live in a bubble in the west. We're fighting for equity across genders and race, while some parts of the world are still questioning if sexual harassment against women at work is really that big of a deal.

I want to make sure that I understood what was happening in the scene where the turbo lift door opens and they see an alternate reality... Those were the Enderprizians from "All the World's a Stage", right?

Since we never got a mirror universe episode in Voyager (not counting "Living Witness"), I enjoyed Mulgrew and Beltran getting to give us a quick glimpse of what it would have been like.

I loved the callback from Chakotay regarding the events from the VOY episode "Shattered".

End0fLine , (edited ) to Star Trek in Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Prodigy | 2x19 & 2x20 "Ouroboros"

What a ride these two episodes were.

A few of my favorite moments:

  • Gillian (the whale!) piloting the ship through the wormhole
  • Wesley finally calling his mom, but then showing up behind her as a surprise
  • The tie-in to the Picard synth attach at the end where the crew reacts to seeing the Mars attack on the news
  • Janeway pushing to continue some scientific and humanitarian missions

I do have a question though. I have been getting "these two people seem to want to get together vibes" in between Chakotay and Janeway starting in the episode "Cracked Mirror". Was this just wishful thinking on my part?

Speaking of relationships, were holo-Janeway and the Doctor flirting?

cybervseas ,

Regarding Janeway and Chakotay, they had similar moments in Voyager, too. At first she was thinking she'd get back together with her fiance Mark. Then eventually she decides that since she's a captain on a small ship that's isolated from the rest of the federation, she shouldn't fraternize with the crew.

Also though, the two have a tight bond. Think about how long they've known each other, and what they went through together. I mean, she had her first officer infiltrate his ship after which they all got flung to the opposite side of the galaxy, and she made him the first officer. A lot of what we're seeing use just that these two care so much about each other, not necessarily romantically.

I'm not sure exactly what I thought was going to be behind the mid 20th century vault door, but it certainly wasn't Wesley Crusher. I didn't hate it either. Was the sweater that he was wearing one that he wore in TNG? It seemed very familiar.

The Loom are terrifying. We've seen "getting erased completely from history" before with the Krenim time weapon (VOY: Year of Hell), but this version seemed so much worse to me.

I loved the bit regarding all the separate realities, including the "oops you aren't supposed to know that" regarding the mycelial plane.

Seeing Janeway take on the Loom by herself in a shuttle reminded me of her taking on the macrovirus in VOY: Macrocosm.

Reminded me a lot of Discovery. What a cool episode for Zero - their character design is quite fitting I think and looks good. Wonder if we'll ever see that in live action. @startrek

It really was good to get a Zero-centric episode.

The Nobodies being reckless thrill-seekers was a nice story element - I always wished Saru had gone through something similar following his vahar'ai.

I think the episode did about as well as could be expected when it comes to conveying the concept of gaining senses for the first time, and then willingly giving them up. Heady stuff for a kids' show.

Turns out it's the same company. The Yukon Striker was built right after the Valkyria.

hanke OP ,

Cool. And smart by them 😄

I really like this.

Ptsf , to homelab in Dell Boss N1 questions

From what I can tell this isn't going to function, mainly just due to the additional proprietary connectors on that Dell card. I imagine there's some sort of firmware integration as well though since it's got a data line coming off it too. Quick side question, is there any reason you're not just picking up some N95 boxes off Amazon? They're so cheap you'd pay for them in power savings vs this box alone and you could essentially treat it as a Raid 1 of the entire system with a handful of backup scripts.

krakenfury OP ,

Thanks for your time and consideration. I planned a few different builds with an N100, but everything priced out way more than I wanted to spend, even without drives. I saw this server for $80 on FB marketplace, and that was that.

RAID1 is only for the Proxmox installation, them I will use ZFS for the block storage.

This is not funny and any man wearing this would probably not pass a similar test using any woman's criteria. If I saw someone wearing this my first thought would certainly not be "hey this is a guy with a great sense of humor and I would like to hang with him!".

I like this photo a lot more than the other one! I think it's the symmetry of the foliage creating a frame for the coaster.
