Made a healthy dinner last night... red miso/dashi broth with kale, green onions, and shrimp, served over some udon noodles.

This is a common meal at my house.

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 timeline is named the Kelvin timeline.

Definitely a vulnerability in the Adminer app, but not an issue if people secure it in the first place!

Correct. And also fixed.

This was never one of my recommended providers, but I hear others talk about them occasionally.

@tonyshowoff it is mostly true though.

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.
