i just rewatched it again. Anders says HE and its perfectly clear.

He clearly says "she was 7". I know it. I watched the scene at least 3 times. He follows with "I'm sure". Why don't you watch this to jog your memory?

WARNING: Click the link at your own discretion. It's a part of episode 15.

i guess you can hear anything you want

True, but only if there's something wrong with your sense of hearing.

He clearly was speaking fast at that point. Going with context of what was stated, it is likely he. I can't believe we're having another one of these arguments.

This is not 'another one of those' conversations. No one is trying to lip-read 'he' or 'she' (like six or ten).

The line was deliberate and was hidden/woven into the scene for one reason or another: it's either a clue or red herring. There is nothing to interpret, Anders says,

"Yes. He died... Daniel died. She was 7. I'm sure.".

Skip ahead to the 5 min mark in the Youtube vid linked above.

I don't know what you mean by that, but I'm going by what the character said. I know what I heard. The YouTube video is proof. Watch it if you haven't done so already.

Thank you!

its cool canadians maybe it was a she in your broadcast :D

That makes no sense, haha. I doubt they would do that. Why would they make Canadians hear "She"? :laugh:

Anyway, I invite others to watch the YouTube video in my previous post. Pay close attention to what Anders says. You can clearly hear him say "She". Heck, crank up your volume to max and hear it. He says "She" and then says "I'm sure". I know he said it because the the first part of "she" and "sure (shure)" sounded similar.

So we have two definitive male references, one debatable female reference. Considering the state of mind of both Cylons at the time they spoke the words, I'm going to have to go with Daniel being a male, the argument I made from the start.

Wow, I frakked up. I watched a better source with some high quality headphones and concluded that Anders said "He" instead of "She". It definitely sounded like the latter but it was merely the way he pronounced the word. I formally retract my previous posts regarding this issue. By the way, I knew the Daniel model was a male but I guess I was hoping it would be Kara Thrace. My bad! :wacko:

/me cleans ears, vigorously

I was watching some of the BSG marathon of episodes from season 3 - 4 on Sci-Fi today and noticed a small bit of discontinuity. Remember back in season 2 (I think) when Starbuck injures her knee and she can't take the G forces of flying a mark II viper with her bum knee. Well, at the end of season 3 when the cylons attack, Anders has a knee injury of some type, hobbling in it, then he suits and jumps in a mark II viper when the cylons show up and pilots it fine, other than fumbling with the gun trigger. I wouldn't have thought much of it if he had at least been flying the mark VII viper... :hmmm:

This episode was mostly dull, and I just might shoot myself if I have to deal with Adama's drinking habit yet again.

I thought maybe the Ellen Tigh character would have a change, but she was the same old nagging bitch she has always been, I can see why Saul Tigh went after a better piece of ass after millenniums of putting up with her. They say the five of them were close, but I just can't see it with the way the characters are written. Another transition episode, setting up an intense episode to come later. Expectations are too high for the rest of season after the two part mutiny episode.

was starbucks quote a hint or a red herring, when she said that tigh and ellens scene at the raptor was like watching her parents making out.

I noticed that as well... perhaps a tad bit of foreshadowing. If Ellen had all her memories back though, seems like we would have known it this week. Maybe she was a creation of their lab on Earth, a test subject of their organic memory transplant, a prototype for their resurrection tech. I'm gonna stop guessing and just watch the last four episodes though ;)

I liked it. A bit slower, but we needed to process the info from the last episode. I like the way they have paced to story over the series as a whole even if that makes for some slow episodes occasionally. That Michael Hogan (Saul Tigh) has not gotten more critical acclaim for this role is a crime.

i enjoyed the episode i just thought it was just a cheap trick for the writers to go to the love angle for a miscarriage. I know they mentioned it in previous episodes but it was a lame cop-out imho.

I thought it was great that ellen was the way she was; It made perfect sense and her vindictiveness was just a treat to watch.

Now starbuck saying it was like her parents make out was a nice touch i just hope it turns out to be true.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
