  • True, but the feeling is that in general Voyager was hard to watch.

    I rewatched TNG and DS9 several times from start to finish and almost skipped no episodes (though in later rewatches of DS9 I’m skipping the alternate universe ones since I can’t bear them). I tried rewatching VOY and I just can’t. Sure I can rewatch some of the awesome episodes from the show, but I can’t watch it from start to finish since I find most episodes to be cringey (even if I like most of the actors and their characters, but something doesn’t work when watching entire episodes).

    Unrelated: I watched DIS until it was on Netflix (and deemed it an action TV series that’s got nothing to do with Star Trek) and watched only a few episodes of PIC until it turned into the “fellowship of the ring” with the introduction of a sword wielding elf. Should I squeeze my nose and dive into it again and try to finish it?

    I’ll watch SNW as soon as I can. Still haven’t gotten around it






  • Well, you’re right in principle, but with my (old, but current) Mac+Intel configuration Firefox is not as sleek as Chrome and also often Firefox turns the fan on while Chrome doesn’t (it may just be that Google is bricking Firefox when you’re on YouTube, for example)

    Anyhow, I’m trying to use Firefox as much as I can (I’ve always done so), but it’s always been true it was a better experience to use Chrome on my setup (and I’ve never used Safari)

    Edit: why the downvotes? To teach me a lesson? I said he’s right, but I do have an actual problem and cannot yet make the full move (and am going to check out the suggestions below. Thanks!)






  • When I receive things like this, I make sure to open Gmail from within Firefox with all extensions meant to defend me (like NoScript, unlock origin, privacy badger, https everywhere) and then I hover over the gigantic button “check my activity” and see if it leads to a accounts.google.com link.

    Either way, I then copy the link address without clicking on it, and open it in a private window to see what happens. If it’s a scam, the page it opens has a legit looking, but wrong google address (aka, it cannot really end with google.com). Then I just stop having fun and don’t continue nor type anything

    What does it look like in your case?






  • Guys, I’m embarrassed but I got to ask: can someone explain how it should be understood?

    No, I’m not making fun of it. I legitimately don’t understand it and I would like to.

    From the other comments I get it’s something about video calls at home and maybe people yelling while on them? I’m confused because the guy walking on the horse is also relevant (perhaps in minding his business and being disturbed by others yelling)?
