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.

    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug by Taras Buria Forza Horizon 6 was launched last month to critical acclaim (check out our review here), and it became a smash hit in an instant. Now, weeks into the launch, with die-hard fans clocking hundreds of hours, Forza Horizon 6 is facing a serious issue: save wipes. After multiple complaints on Reddit and social media, the studio issued a statement. The problem with missing saves came shortly after Playground Games promised the initial batch of gameplay tweaks and improvements. Unfortunately, there seems to be no temporary fixes for those affected by unexpected save wipes. However, the studio published a new support document with a few important steps users should try. First, affected gamers should open a support ticket immediately (go here to file one) so that the support team can try recovering the lost progress by reverting to an earlier save. Playground Games says this should be done the same day the issue occurs. Meanwhile, gamers are urged not to start new play sessions or create new saves. The studio also published a few things gamers should try to avoid to prevent potential progress loss: Ensure your Gaming Services app on PC or XBOX Series X|S console is fully up to date. On XBOX Series X|S consoles, disable Quick Resume for Forza Horizon 6: To disable Forza Horizon 6 from using Quick Resume, highlight the game box art anywhere in the console experience (Home, My Games & Apps, Pins, etc) and then press the Menu button, then go to Manage game and add-ons > Quick Resume settings > Disable Quick Resume. Ensure you are online when ‘quitting’ the game. Give your saved time to sync to the cloud before powering off or switching devices. Do not force quit the game during save screens. Do not power off the device during gameplay. Always "Quit" (console) or "Exit to desktop" (PC) once you've finished your play session, ensuring the save icon is not visible when you’re closing the game. Before turning off your console, shutting down your PC, or force-closing the Steam app, give your devices or clients at least a few minutes to ensure your latest progress has been synchronized with the cloud. This will reduce the risk of progress reversions as you switch between different platforms. XBOX Series X|S consoles, Steam, and the XBOX app on PC all include game save indicators that confirm your progress has been synced. You can read more about the bug in the official support document here. Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on PC (Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. The game is also coming to PlayStation 5 later this year.
    • If only Windows would have a toggle switch labeled "Get the latest updates as soon as possible" inside Windows Update settings... But nah, let's hide the new stuff inside a controlled feature rollout, even if the user is explicitly asking for the new stuff as soon as possible. Awesome idea!
