This comic strip of Jurassic Trek makes fun of the (time honored?) trope of killing off the red shirt ;-) (original archive here)

Oh man... gets my blood boiling (Last Week Tonight covered Charter Schools this week...)

I am conflicted about this new MacGyver.  I will watch it, considering that I grew up with the original one, however this doesn't really strike me as MacGyver-y.  While MacGyver worked for the "foundation" he was more or less a lone wolf.  Any support he got in the field seemed incidental.  There was no team involved.  This trailer makes it look more Mission: Impossible,

ROFL - had a good laugh at this past week's GamerCat.  It's exactly how I felt when my first Poke-egg hatched and out came a ...ratata X(

Back for another installment of Vintage Technology! This time I thought I'd write a little bit about the Psion series of Personal Digital Assistants.  Psion didn't really hit my radar until around 2001, but by that time I think that the company had already started switching directions.

 This past week the rumor, or leak, is that the new Star Trek series (Discovery) will take place 100 years after Enterprise, and 10 years before the original series.  I've seen a lot of  "bah! humbug"-ing in the various facebook Trek groups I follow (mostly because of fan films).  It seems that most people would prefer something set in the post-Voyager and post-Nemesis era,

Another of the TV shows that I caught up on (thanks Netflix!) is a show that aired a few years ago called Revolution. The series kicks off with someone coming home and instructing their family to fill up all empty containers with fresh water, fill the tub, fill the sinks, and so on. He looks at this pendant he's got and...power goes off!  Oh snap! Flash forward to 15 (or so) years after
