Star Trek: Discovery’s second season may boldly go where the first did not

"I suggest that you focus on the problem in front of you, rather than what is behind."

In many ways, this season felt very much like a much-needed reset from the previous one. The Klingon war is over, and the Federation is consumed by a new scientific pursuit: mysterious red bursts of light that have appeared across 30,000 light years.

I'm looking forward to seeing it

I’m looking forward to see how they square this entire series with cannon. Season one was good. I hope season two is also.

By itself it is a solid Star Trek show. But they have stated publicly that it will square to cannon.

Being only 10 years ahead of TOS, there are some big ass issues to be matched up.

LOL - canon, like Star Wars, is just screwed.

Maybe. It will depend on what they do. Either way season 1 was good as a Star Trek show itself, just not sure how they think they could possibly square this to canon.

Right - Spoke had an adopted sister they haven't spoken of in 60 years? lol... Was there really a need to make Sarak her adoptive dad? Is he literally the only Vulcan that cares one bit for humans? Seems unlikely.

Also - where are we at with Vulcan being destroyed? Or are their now splinter universes? Sure they never spoke about Vulcan - We saw Michael as a child - Let's assume in Discovery that Michael is 28, the flash backs I would call her around 9... So that's 20 years ago, and this show takes place 10 yr after TOS, so that would still fit in the no more Vulcan timeline....

Discovery is in the original timeline.

The destroyed Vulcan time Ken is named the Kelvin timeline.

OK - it will be interesting to see where the next movies are then...

@Dashrender that doesnt sound bad...

My diet is pretty rigid right now

Pre workout - 1/2 banana
post workout - Postwork out drink

1 hr later - 4 eggs, two 6" tortillas, 1 ounce cheese

3 hr later - 1.25 cups cottage cheese, 1 cup berries

3 hr later - 6 ounce very lean protein, 6 ounce potato, 1 cup vegetables, .5 tbsps butter (real)

3 hr later - 9 triscuits, 4 tbsp guacamole, 4 oz very lean protein

3 hr later (dinner) - 2/3 cup rice, 6 oz lean protein, 1 cup veg, .5tbsps butter (real)

This ends up being a huge amount of food, and eating this frequently is very challenging with my job - only because since I'm rarely hungry, it's easy for the food to just sit there while I am working...

Google buys Fossil Group and then closes Fossil Group smartwatch division

Google, like most beats which consume a meal far too large for their gullet, the terror sets in at Google Fossil Group

Ricky Kashaut was hoping for his new stock in Google to mature on Friday in a $1 trillion dollar deal most Silicon Valley insiders said "that amount is so stupid it has to be real", but by the time he was done signing the papers, and went to take a leak, it was all over. Within just a few moments of purchasing the company Google shut it down saying they didn't see a market for a smartwatch at this time. As we at Some Idiotic Technews Dumpsite watched with sadness as Ricky "No-Longer-Ricktired" Kashaut, the idea man that no one wanted, asked if he could at least have a doughnut. Mr. Pichai smiled, shook his head and, then promptly had him removed from the property.

LOL - ha - I thought someone had actually written about how Google was just going to cancel it in 6 months.

I can tell you some,

Google +, Google Reader (RSS Reader), Picassa (photo editor), Google Talk (Hangout predecesor), google labs, Google Earth Enterprise, Google URL Shorterner (https://firebase.google.com/support/guides/url-shortener), Inbox, Google Code. All those ones I used.

I had Google plus because a frined of mine was using it. I didn't use it that much. The idiot parts/customer service manager that has since been forced out, was always trying to use different shit and start projects with stuff he didn't have the expertise or budget for. He started using Picassa to catalog images of all sorts of parts. I told him that he shouldn't use that. Sure enough, picassa died.

Didn't Picassa just use the Google Photos for the back end though? So just use a new editing app, or did I miss something? I used Picassa in the day.. but it's been so long now I've mostly forgotten how I used it.

No, it was purely a desktop application. Support for Google Photos was added much later.

Aww, thanks.
I knew it was desktop based..

Isn't the list of SMTP commands given before there is any attempt to bring up a TLS tunnel? Assuming my understanding of that is correct - then it shouldn't matter what version of TLS is supported - the advertising of STARTTLS should still be in the list - and the library's aren't seeing them - right?
