I don't know. I've been wondering how Nielsen calculates stuff in the digital age. I use to be an advocate of Nielsen ratings, but with more and more things digital, I think we need a new ratings system. But, I have no clue what it should be and how it would work :p

One thing is for sure, there's too many shows that get canned because of poor ratings. Pushing Daisies, Fringe, Dollhouse, Tera Nova, Dead Like Me, Heroes, etc.

That was a bit ho-hum compared to the last two episodes. It also didn't feel like it was part of a finale.

So they changed Bell's involvement, or lack thereof, when Oliva escaped from the other side. So how did Olivia escape?! Bah.

And Jones' death... What the heck? Fall on wires and you're electrecuted?!

Actually,

fall on wires and hit antenna base => electrocuted. On a side note, noticed how half of him got destroyed/pulverized - it seems there are still traces of the pre-machine-activation universe

And? Surely hitting wires and the antenna base, both of which had no damage and were are already connected and touching, wouldn't electrocute someone. On the off chance that it even could under the right conditions, not do it so easily as happened on the show. The death was so poorly portrayed for someone of such importance, nay, for anyone who was supposed to die by that point in the episode. It lacked any imaginative thought whatsoever.

Wasn't it estabilshed that David Robert Jones DNA is unstable due to all of the teleporting and crossing universes in earlier seasons, Hence his scared appearance and that would account for his desolving once electrocuted?

You're thinking of William Bell. Still, electrocution? From that little fall? Really!?

Deaths on Fringe don't really affect me anymore. They can always bring back characters from the other universe, and alternate universe, or some other anomaly :rofl:.

True :laugh: But I like her character more than Captain Lincoln Lee (who's death I didn't really care about) and the other Astrid :p

What about "Hello old friend". Pretty sure that was taken right from the new Star Trek movie, or maybe just coincidence?

That's been in a lot of movies. I mean Crossing the Streams is just well, you know.... from Ghostbusters. It can't be from anywhere else. lol.

wtf is that voice saying right at the end?

According to one of the YouTube comments, the voice says "It is impossible." backwards.

I was genuinely surprised to see that

William Bell was behind it all. I didn't think for once that he'd play the bad guy.

    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen

      By monterxz · Posted

      You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
