    I will never get over how some people can keep so many browser tabs open! I mean its not just that I'm OCD, I have a fairly powerful desktop PC and I STILL get buffer errors in chrome when I'm doing too much!

    I would've liked the ship graphics on Steam to be fixed, but I guess we can't have everything.

    This reminds me of how they changed the opening theme in Enterprise during the Mirror episodes.

    I really enjoyed that, and I'm enjoying this!

    The cold open where they had the modified first contact scene was so sweet
  • Spore Drive... meh.

    Love the MU opening screen though.

    Going off-topic on this reply for just a moment, if the OP will forgive me. That doesn't seem like a lot of tabs, honestly — I mean, I generally only have about half that open at any given time, but some people I know keep like 3 times as many (or more) open at once, which does amaze me. (Those are often the same people whose desktop has icons all over the place. I'm like, "How can you find anything on that??")

    Also, because Chrome has a separate process for each open tab, I think it may be more of an issue with that than with Firefox. I use both browsers for different sites — some play nicer with one than the other — but FF is where I have more tabs open in general. I try to keep only 6 or so tabs open on Chrome, but I also use a "suspend" plugin/extension, which basically does not load any tab until I click on it, so it's like it's not open. Seems to help.


    Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

    In my opinion, the Mirror episodes were some of the finest work in Enterprise (next to the Vulcan Renaissance episodes).

    The Mirror opening was really exciting (especially compared to the cringe-inducing regular Enterprise opening), the sort of "convergence point" shot of Cochrane pulling a shotgun on the Vulcans...it was all so well done, and then tied to a bit of lingering plot from TOS. And Soval had a goatee. That made me smile.

    I thought that Cochrane's Mirror First Contact was the divergence, but when I rewatched the episode, Phlox mentions looking at the literature from the Prime Universe and seeing that the protagonists in the great works of literature were "weak" and "compassionate" (except for Shakespeare, whose characters were equally grim in both universes). It could be that Prime and Mirror Earth are parallel until the Third World War, where both versions are similar. That leads to Cochrane inventing warp drive and getting the attention of the Vulcans in both Universes. So Mirror Cochrane's actions may be less a single choice by himself and more a result of the Earth on which he grew up: a more militaristic, brutal, and Darwinian one than our own. In other words, the Mirror First Contact is not "What if Cochrane had decided to shoot the Vulcan instead of shaking his hand?" but more of "What if Earth's global culture throughout history was more militaristic and brutal than it is for us?"

    And to not be off-topic...I thought that the MU screen as a nice touch. Makes it all feel like a mega-event rather than just every weekend.

    I think people tend to get kind of bogged down in "WHERE" a Timeline diverges. The Flash TV show has really exacerbated the problem. When a diverging event happens, the new Timeline would still have a history. In the case of a dark, mirror universe, as we see in Star Trek ,that Timeline would have been going in a darker direction for millennia. {It is entirely possible that Stamets "Created" the Mirror Universe when he tampered with is DNA to save the ship. But, that new Universe has a history. Thus, Cochrane shoots the Vulcans. The NX-01 crew steals the 23rd century Defiant. All the tings that we see that would have been before the triggering event still happened in that Timeline, even though the trigger was much later.....

    My theory.....

    I've been rewatching all of Enterprise on Netflix and am loving everything (Jeffrey Combs is THE MAN)... I really didn't give it a fair shake the first time I guess cuz I always regarded it as meh but I really love it now... You're right though, the mirror episodes were standouts... And let's not talk about that finale... Oh boy

    They should release a 1 star "Pegasus Emo Riker" from that episode just so I can airlock the crap out of him

    Is it just me, or is the new open screen faster loading too?

    Not just you. I and several others in my fleet have noticed that it's much faster to load. A welcome change, to be sure.

    I swear I am almost ready to drop $50 at Wally World next paycheck for the entire Series. I always loved Enterprise. I think the Mirror episodes right at the end was the best of the Mirror episodes {for me, at least}.

    When I first log in, add about eight, because on eight of the Worlds where I "play" Tribal Wars, I mostly just collect my Daily Chests. Mostly.....

    I don't know what you're talking about. The finale doesn't exist. ENT left off at the end of Terra Prime.

    Agreed. Demons/Terra Prime is probably the best Trek series finale.
