Criticism of Discovery? Perish the thought.  🙄   Series tries but it's just not as important as it thinks it is. Paramount properties are falling victim to thinking virtue-signalling is uh, paramount. Au Contraire.

There's a group who likes Discovery and watches it, just like there's a group who likes one of the others.  I think it's clear the plan has been to air different types of shows and grab fans of those types.   Hate on Discovery all you want but it's going into it's 5th season (might be it's last or not, don't know), and these shows aren't cheap to make for Paramount.  It must have enough viewers to keep going, or a show would get canned quick.

No one said anything about 'hate' so of course one has to ask why you did you do that? Actually loved the Lorca story arc and would have liked to have seen more, perhaps if writers felt up to it, his terran double could have turned up. Disco's far-flung-future storyline is altogether curious. Seems to me.

Anyone knows who that lady is and who the old man with the antique gun is?

The lady is new, the old man is Moriarty from TNG.

wait wait WAIIIIIITTTT a minute... how is... Lore.... wtf?!

He was never distroied or anything.  Just turned off last we saw him in TNG.   Easy to assume someone who didn't know any better turned him back on.

After deactivating him Data told Picard "He must be disassembled so that he is no longer a threat".

And... wasn't his pieces stored in Data's quarters on the Enterprise-D?

It looks great... but why are they giving all this away in the the trailer. All those surprise reveals would have been so much better 😢

Maybe they have some bigger surprises 🤷‍♂️

That doesn't mean he's destroyed though.   Someone with some time could've put him back together.

I'm getting a Reman feeling from that enemy ship

I did as well, which makes things interesting.    Though it could just be the general look of it being close.  

WOW!  Great to see Moriarty and Lore again.

 

We know Denise Crosby is supposedly coming back, so.

Spoiler

The antagonist could be her daughter either from Romulus or from Yesterday’s Enterprise

Or this lady could be related to Shinzon. She could be his sister, or someone related to him that wants revenge for the events of Nemesis. After all, she seems

to know Picard quite well. As far as Lore is concerned. Never judge a book by its cover. Lore could very well turn out to be a good guy this time around. Trailers are designed to fool you into thinking one thing when the reality is another. We shall see. I can’t wait.

They've been making more and more ST Online ships cannon in Picard.     I don't think the F is as good as the E if we compare the two.  But it might grow on me with time.   At this point we don't even know how long it's in the series for anyway.

Shinzon was a clone of Picard, grown specifically as part of a plan to replace Picard and plant a spy in the Federation, which later got abandoned and he was thrown into the mines on Remus to die... There was no sister.

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
