I am waiting for the Atlantis movie and the new SG-1 movie. At least I'll see some familiar Stargate faces one more time. :)

You're going to be waiting a long time buddy, I'm pretty sure both movies have been cancelled. There's been no news about them being made for about a year now. They tore down the SGC set to create the Icarus Base for SGU and for the past few months they've been auctioning all the SGA and SG-1 costumes and props (including pieces of the SGA set) on eBay. http://shop.ebay.com/propworx2/m.html?_trkparms=65%253A12%257C66%253A2%257C39%253A1%257C72%253A2528&_sticky=1&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_sop=1&_sc=1

Most importantly, most of the actors have moved on to other projects so it's going to be almost impossible to get everybody back at the same time. Don't get me wrong, I would love to have new movies, but if you look at the facts, it seems highly unlikely.

As much as I liked SG-1 and SGA, I'm loving the direction SGU is heading in.

Oh yeah and I voted for Young because Rush is a jerk. This whole rivalry thing was taken to a new level because of Rush planting that gun in Young's room. It's all his fault. Stargate has always been about the military and I'd like to continue to see the military in command.

I don't know why the military is in command honestly. There has been no enemy to protect the people from up until now and honestly, the military needs the civilians alot more than the civilians need them. At least with Atlantis and Sg-1, you could see the benefit of each side helping each other. In this case, the way they've set it up so far, what's to stop a civilian saying no I won't fix the air scrubbers, I won't grow us new food, we'll all die if you don't accept civilian control..shooting your gun isn't going to make you get more air.

Which civilian would give up their own life? Military acknowledge it from their first day of service.

I really like the new direction things are going. The previous were decent, but not great. I only watched it because it was different than what I was used to with SG-1 and Atlantis. The past two episodes, though, have been amazing. I absolutely loved them. The next episode looks like it could be good, but no aliens or space encounters is like taking away the icing on a cake.

As for who should lead Destiny, at first I would have chosen Young. Heck, up until the last two episodes I would've chosen him. I think Rush has what it takes to lead Destiny and to get things done. He seems to know a great deal about the ship and even knew things about the aliens that attacked them (thanks to the "direct neural link" between them). I don't want to see Wray in power. She probably has some hidden IOA agenda.

+1

So far: SGU 1.5 > SGU 1.0. I hope it stays that way. :yes:

I think she has some value as a neutral tool for Young or Rush to use regardless of her agenda. Military or otherwise people don't see her going to extremes (even in this case, most people will attribute it to Rush) so that's a good thing for her, but it wont be enough to make her a leader.

Shows really picked up last couple of episodes, id like to see Rush take control and i think he will for a while because the show seems to move very quickly, and we havent seen him in total control yet. Itll probably end up where he starts realizing hes no different than young, or another mutiny will start to take control away from him. I think its great though that theyre being attacked by aliens and theyre still at eachothers throats =D

    • Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for seven more games as discounts continue

      Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for seven more games as discounts continue by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There's a brand-new update rolling out to Nvidia's GeForce NOW streaming service, and like every week, that means more games have received support on the platform. This week's drop has additions like Aphelion and Pro Cycling Manager 26 attached to it. Don't forget that the GeForce NOW summer sale is still active too. This limited-time offer drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. At the same time, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping the price by $70 from the original $199.99. Moreover, Nvidia reiterated that support for GOG single sign-in and game library is incoming this summer, joining stores like Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, and Xbox. "Connect supported game store accounts and stream titles with GeForce RTX power. Games that include cloud-save functionality help keep progress intact across devices," added the company. "Start a game on one screen, pick up where playtime left off on another, and spend less time managing installs and storage space." Here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: Embers of the Uncrowned Demo (New release on Steam, available 13) Pro Cycling Manager 26 (New release on Steam, available June 15) Aphelion (Steam) Citizen Sleeper (Epic Game Store, Free from June 18-25) Megastore Simulator (Steam) OPERATOR (Steam) Super Meat Boy 3D (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month, with extra time being purchasable in chunks.

    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns

      Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.
