I drew the line at them dragging Porthos of all beings into it. Like they thought that would legitimize it.
Also it might be the only Trek show with 3-parters? I haven't seen DISCO so someone feel free to correct if I'm wrong.
Look on the bright side, you didn't have to watch the writers hand-wave away the entire series when it got cancelled.
I really enjoy season 4 (except These Are The Voyages... lets not talk about that.) but I think it's definitely fair to say that the sheer adrenaline ride that was season 3 slows down a bit after the Xindi threat is resolved. You end up with a lot of these standalone arcs that, like you said, are focused on building connections with existing Trek (the augment trilogy leading into Affliction/Divergence is a good example) or arcs designed to set up the founding of the UFP. It's clear that they were also leading into the Romulan war which was only ever mentioned in passing in TOS. In that context I think the slightly slower tempo season 4 would have made an excellent breather between the two.
lmfao right?
Thank you for taking the time to respond, I realized very quickly that I am FULLY out of my depth with this conversation haha. You all are very thoughtful and knowledgeable.
LineageOS Android TV looks like an interesting solution but having SELinux in permissive mode is a bit scary. Maybe someone with more in-depth Linux knowledge can chime in here but my understanding is that would mean that the Android kernel's security system would basically be turned off. Permissive Mode logs security access violations within the OS but does nothing to prevent them so I would be wary of connecting it to the internet.
It's fascinating seeing the responses to this from you all who obviously know a lot about philosophy. Coming at it from a layman's perspective, and not really knowing who David Hume was, the science definitions bit was all I could really understand and I interpreted it the way that you say it could have been written. I'm now wondering if just placed my own preconceptions about the bits that I did understand onto the author without really considering the rest.
I can't tell if you're joking or if you're literally referring to Storm Front and Impulse lol. I don't know too many Storm Front fans but I thought Impulse was generally considered a good episode by the fan base.
