No production of Star Trek has ever so much as been aware of the existence of Babylon 5, which is probably the funniest thing about the constant charge from its fans that Star Trek is its mutual rival.

There’s an official tie-in book series about those temporal agents if you’re really interested.

“All time travel technology was destroyed after the temporal wars.” Hey, that sounds like a pretty cool story, why don’t you do a show about that.

My favorite thing about David Lynch is that he proves you don’t have to be a world-class asshole in order to be a world-class weirdo.

I thought it was a fun harmless gag, but I assume the reason it got pulled is that Xbox has been leaning really hard into a “play nice with others” brand strategy, which includes responding with kind words of encouragement to people on Twitter who say they’re getting a PS5 instead of an XSX/S this gen.

How do you do an entire article about this and not mention the most important factor in the USA Mario 2's favor?

I’m glad he’s having fun playing golf and Nick Fury (in that order) these days, but I remember back when Samuel L Jackson was actually a really good actor. Like, knock-your-socks-off powerful, in roles where he didn’t sarcast his way though every scene and/or spend half of his screentime holding a gun.

It’s unknown if there will be stock in February (although I’d bet there will be). But also, yes, people’s lives will be impacted. It’s four months of next-gen gaming. It’s a good Xmas for their kids in this year of pain and strife. It’s not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but no one is saying it is.

Sorry to break it to you, but Rob Lowe is a conservative.

I was really expecting this to make a case for American Dad having grown out of its origins as an way for liberals to get away with telling sexist/homophobic/transphobic/racist jokes, but no.

It’s the point, actually. That we’re at once the same and are still each totally unique.

I don’t understand this kind of trip.

Stop Making Sense is a pivotal film (not just concert film, but film), but an influence on “American New Wave,” a genre that reached its apex a few years prior to that film’s release, it was not. 😆

Yes, this is an after-bedtime, room service breakfast, or post-museum/pre-dinner thing. It’s why they put TVs (with free HBO!) in hotel rooms in the first place. Don’t act like it’s some foreign concept.

tether your chromecast to your phone

I’ve tried that with my laptop, and it’s either super slow, or irritatingly unreliable (at least in my experience). In some hotels, it doesn’t work at all. These turnkey hotel wifi systems might use a similar method that mobile networks use to detect if a device is tethered rather than directly connected, in order to…

I have brought a Chomecast with me on every trip I’ve taken in the last 5 years, and never once has it worked with any hotel wifi.

I’ve adored this show since the pilot, but this almost certainly isn’t Adult Swim pulling the rug out from under the creators, it likely shows how little faith Adult Swim had in their ability to deliver a next season, or any kind of series wrap-up content, on time and budget, in a way that was worth their investment.

This is literally just an existing Fractal Design case with a sticker on the front. I built a PC with using a case from this line over 5 years ago.

Seems like Brendan Gleeson is doing Alec Baldwin’s Donald Trump, but as a scary dude rather than as an utter fool.
