[Official] Doctor Who Thread

So. Which of you cried too? Started with the poem for me and then got progressively worse right 'till the end. That surprise appearance pretty much turned me into a complete emotional wreck / pile of tears :p

 

(I am so glad we get BBC HD here in Belgium!)

I really teared up when that person appeared and Matt was giving his last speech!

Erm what? Will there be a part two to finish up this story line. I know most doctor who episodes end with plot holes but this was worse than most. Overall the ending got a poor reception in my house.

 

What plot holes, from what I understood it resolved everything from Matt Smiths time as the Doctor.

Well, I thought it was absolute rubbish. Who has gotten progressively more cheap looking and more nonsensical under Moffat's tutelage.

 

Tonight's episode was a good example of this, lots of flowery language that ultimately makes no sense, plots that went absolutely nowhere and the damn daleks again, is it possible for Moffat to write an episode now where the daleks don't make an appearance?

 

I can't wait for Moffat to leave and someone else with more imagination to take over because Moffat is just churning over the same stories now.

I thought those buildings looked familiar :p

 

It was a nice episode, but in general I've liked the last few years of Who a bit less than 9 and 10's. Those storylines were both more complex and simpler at the same times. Less easy fixes and better reasons/explanations for things. But it hasn't been bad, I still love it.

i do not want to sound to critical however, i honestly thought the episode was rather boring. and Moffet kept promising to close story loops and not really much of anything happened in the episode.

The actual regeneration looked really good.  I hope they take the show in a new direction with Peter Capaldi because they do tend to rehash the same storylines over and over again.  I also hope his Doctor is a bit more serious and a little less frenetic than all the other portayals have been since the reboot.  Something more like Jon Pertwee's Doctor would be great.  A character with a bit more depth.

Do the time lords have the ability to open and close the cracks at will? Have they given up trying to re-enter this universe? What about the remaining Daleks around Christmas? Only one ship blew up on screen? What about the desolated planet the Doctor met the great intelligence at in the future?

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
    • with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11
    • with LTSC and ESU there are still viable as a stable platform not that they care and let people deal with w11 crashing and burning every month support mean shet if the platform is trash
    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
