Braga: ‘I still cringe when I hear it.’ Apparently, it was a long road to the franchise’s most despised title music ( www.slashfilm.com )

Working from the oral history in The Five Year Mission: The next 25 years, this is a fascinating deep dive that answers the question “How did a recycled cover of a 1998 song written for Rod Stewart, ‘Where My Heart Will Take Me’ aka ‘Faith of the Heart’ become the title music for Enterprise?”...

Yes, and that song was even more unbearable (for me)

I live in the US. I use a credit card for all my purchases because not only does it shift liability from my money to the bank’s money, it also pays me a % in the form of cash back and I pay it off in full every month to avoid any interest charges.

I agree with the critics scores way more than user scores. Strange New Worlds and Next Generation are wayyy better than Voyager or Enterprise. However, I disagree with the critics in that Voyager is better than The Original Series.

It's Almost Impossible To Find A Decent Used Car Under $20,000 ( jalopnik.com )

Vehicles under $15k are 1.6% of the market, and their share of the market has dropped over 90% since 2019. The old advice that you can get a beater and drive it in to the ground for $5k hasn't been true for years but it still seems pervasive in personal finance spaces.

They require a fair amount of effort, but the payoff is well worth it

Which particular episode(s) of Star Trek do you find yourself going back to?

Just interested if there’s an episode of a particular series you find yourself going back to? Not necessarily “the best” or your favorite, just one you gravitate toward for a comfort re-watch? Here’s the episodes from each series I find myself re-watching a lot:...

I love the ‘Darmok’ episode from TNG.

I get the joke. However, I just want to point out that in the later series, red signified command and someone important. When I wear my Commandar Riker costume, I don’t appreciate the comments about the red shirt and being expendable.

Haha yes. That may be true there are 2 Rikers, there’s only one Commander Riker.
