I'm a big fan of Harlan Ellison, who originally wrote "The City on The Edge of Forever" and a friend told me he isn't pleased that his intellectual property is being used without his permission. Should be interesting. He successfully sued James Cameron for using a story of hi called "Soldier" to make the Terminator series. Regardless, I do look forward to checking it out.

The pics are nice, but, IMHO, not 'amazing'. They ruined the Trek Franchise by doing Enterprise - a prequel - and they will will completely obliterate it, and crush it into the ground with this movie.

I'll watch it, because I'm a Trek fan. But I'll be weeping inside, as I'll be there with maybe two other ppl on opening day.

The first teaser trailer will debut in theaters with Cloverfield on Friday, January 18, 2008.[73] The teaser will then debut online on Monday, January 21, 2008. An official promotional site for the film is also scheduled to launch around that time and will be linked at StarTrek.com.[74]

The official site for the film launched on January 16, 2008. It introduced the film's new official logo and is located at Paramount.com/StarTrek.

They made a few design changes to the ship...knew right away they would change something. But its not to bad I guess. Just wonder what they will change to the Star Trek Universe...and Allan is right...they could end up ruining Star Trek more than it already is due to Enterprise. Guess they figure if it didn't work once, its bound to work a second time...but I will see it, with an open mind, and hope for the best. Maybe it will be good enough to bring Star Trek back to life...

i do have to say that it looks much better in theaters. you can see much much more.

but i have mixed feelings about it. part of me likes how so far it looks dark. definite change from what star trek normally is and i think its a good change. the other part of me is worried that they ruined the original designs. from what we have seen, it looks like the enterprise is somewhat out of proportion to how the original looked. however we have not seen the entire ship so you never know, it may look great. i am very excited for this movie.

    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By ZipZapRap · Posted

      Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.

      A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.

      Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
