Mustard beer? Fletcher's Corny Dogs selling strange beer with local brewery at the State Fair of Texas

I don't like beer and I don't generally eat the food at the state fair, but I might make a trip for this.

The Elder Scrolls Online Makes Hefty $15 Million In Monthly Revenue

The times that I do play the game, the world is always full of people, but I have to bet that a majority of this is coming from a small amount of people using the shop. What a crazy amount of money.

[Prodigy spoilers] 30 Years Later, Star Trek Finally Pays Off Its Strangest Sci-Fi Twist
  • I wasn't expecting Wesley, but I enjoyed how he was used this season. Considering he was able to fling the Enterprise to a different galaxy with his mind, I didn't see anything in this season that bothered me regarding his "powers".

  • Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Prodigy | 2x09 & 2x10 "The Devourer of All Things"
  • I'm not sure exactly what I thought was going to be behind the mid 20th century vault door, but it certainly wasn't Wesley Crusher. I didn't hate it either. Was the sweater that he was wearing one that he wore in TNG? It seemed very familiar.

    The Loom are terrifying. We've seen "getting erased completely from history" before with the Krenim time weapon (VOY: Year of Hell), but this version seemed so much worse to me.

    I loved the bit regarding all the separate realities, including the "oops you aren't supposed to know that" regarding the mycelial plane.

    Seeing Janeway take on the Loom by herself in a shuttle reminded me of her taking on the macrovirus in VOY: Macrocosm.

  • Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Prodigy | 2x19 & 2x20 "Ouroboros"
  • What a ride these two episodes were.

    A few of my favorite moments:

    • Gillian (the whale!) piloting the ship through the wormhole
    • Wesley finally calling his mom, but then showing up behind her as a surprise
    • The tie-in to the Picard synth attach at the end where the crew reacts to seeing the Mars attack on the news
    • Janeway pushing to continue some scientific and humanitarian missions

    I do have a question though. I have been getting "these two people seem to want to get together vibes" in between Chakotay and Janeway starting in the episode "Cracked Mirror". Was this just wishful thinking on my part?

    Speaking of relationships, were holo-Janeway and the Doctor flirting?

  • Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Prodigy | 2x14 "Cracked Mirror"
  • I want to make sure that I understood what was happening in the scene where the turbo lift door opens and they see an alternate reality... Those were the Enderprizians from "All the World's a Stage", right?

    Since we never got a mirror universe episode in Voyager (not counting "Living Witness"), I enjoyed Mulgrew and Beltran getting to give us a quick glimpse of what it would have been like.

    I loved the callback from Chakotay regarding the events from the VOY episode "Shattered".

  • Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Prodigy | 2x01 & 2x02 "Into the Breach"
  • I probably should have made comments while watching the episodes, as I'm sure I am forgetting a lot of details, but Prodigy seems to have picked up where it left off with regard to the quality of its episodes.

    OSM > Google Maps
  • I contribute a bit and as far as I know the only editor that lets you upload pictures is MapComplete, but even then what you can upload them for is very limited. I do not believe OSM actually has an image database. The pictures I’ve uploaded are all stored on Imgur.

  • Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Discovery | 5x10 "Life, Itself"
  • I am going to miss this show. My barometer for trek finales is Endgame and I would say I liked this one much better.

    The inside of the device was beautiful. I guess we will never find out where it actually came from, but I enjoyed what we did get
