Well this show is broadcast only in Canada, and according to their numbers, it did pretty great so far

Ohh yeah! I'm forgetting that it isn't an American show, I was thinking that since there were just over half a million viewers it would be considered a flop :p Thats actually really good considering the population of Canada is something like 34,000,000 and its a sci-fi show :p

I thought the third episode was good.

I liked the tension between Kellog and Curtis. Did anyone else think that Kellog was shot in the neck by Kiera? I mean, he was shot... but it was just a tracer. I thought he was mortally wounded.

Another great episode. I think it's the best one yet. It was nice seeing

Tony Amendola (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0024593/) again. I didn't think he'd be a part of the show after the first episode. The scene where he sees Vancouver and notices kids running by was somewhat touching.

yeah I am really loving this series, to me this is a bit like BSG (not as good but still very awesome)

Also, he can kick some serious ass! :p I like the future implications that lead to hard decisions for Kiera, the burden of knowing the future I guess

I thought the fourth episode was really good (and a step up from the previous).

I'm sorry but this show is hard to get into.

You have one group who goes back in time to stop the world being taken over by corporations who stifle free speech, free press, basically the freedoms we have now. A cop, or more like a goon who works for these big companies, gets sucked into the mix and is now hunting these guys in the past (i.e. the present).

OK. That is fine. Problem? The guys who want to change the past and ensure these companies don't take over and destroy civil rights are complete lunatics who mercilessly murder everyone for no apparent reason! I thought these guys would be the good guys. Revolutionaries who were going to fight to restore rights. Instead? They're maniacs who I can't sympathise with at all.

Now, the cop, well, she works for the companies that are the problem, so why would I sympathise with her?

Perhaps I'm being too critical too early, or perhaps I've confused the story, which is entirely possible. But currently, I'm not rooting for anyone.

Does anyone else see what I am saying?

That was not the perception I had. These revolutionaries are considered terrorists in 2077 and are acting as terrorists in present day. Although these revolutionaries/terrorists are supposedly fighting for civil rights, the world where Kiera is from appears to be comfortable with their society (evident from Kiera's memory flashbacks with friends and family).

Another great episode. I think it's the best one yet. It was nice seeing

Tony Amendola (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0024593/) again. I didn't think he'd be a part of the show after the first episode. The scene where he sees Vancouver and notices kids running by was somewhat touching.

Fantastic job with the special effects. Especially when Tony Amendola was wandering around Vancouver and the scene compared present day to 2077.

This has become one of my favorite shows -- curious if will be picked up by US tv? Maybe shown on BBCA or something, after the first couple of episodes I was worried they were going to go through the motions.

But last #5 was a great one! I love that they are touching on the timeline/paradox stuff - and looks that there is something deeper going on than just some escaped terrorists with cop chasing them down.

It looks like there is only 10 episodes for this season, but I have noticed that UK/CA shows normally have smaller set of episodes.. Looking forward to many seasons of this show!!

First they take her gun, then her suit, now they kill her CMR? How's a time travelling lady policeman supposed to solve crimes without her gadgets?

I'd say that the only thing she has left is her dignity but she spent the whole episode sobbing, crashing her car, being mind controlled by several men simultaneously and having to be rescued constantly.

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.

    • VirtualBox 7.2.10

      By Copernic · Posted

      VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By FloatingFatMan · Posted

      OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      Interesting read. I knew the adware was quite controversial at the time, however never realised to the point The Guardian wrote an article about Patchou. I just said no and enjoyed his creation, I’d probably be a lot more wary of something like that today though.
