  1. 1. Who should lead on Destiny?



Recommended Posts

Amazing show, Stargate series of shows have been my favorite.

This show has been doing amazing stuff which is why I have to comment on episode 12. I grew up listening to Brand New, and more less known bands. The way they used it with the filmography or whatever you call it, was brilliant. Simply using that kind of music was amazing! Made me love the show more then I already did. Didn't know that was possible.

I so hope this show gets more then 4 seasons.

I hope so to, atlantis failed cause they made some very radical changes that ended up backfiring, it was my favorite of the stargates before season 4

Gah, sometimes I feel that they are rushing things on this show >< Lets fit a month timeline into an episode, and leave lots of unanswered questions!

Is Rush ok? Awfully lot of pain there.

What's going to come of the obelisk signal?

WHY THE #@%& DID HE WASTE A SHUTTLE LIKE THAT >_<*

Yea I was a little bummed out they rushed a month's time so quickly. On the same note, Rush in pain would make sense had it just happened. But a month later, not good. Wonder if that was intentional or overlooked. As for the shuttle/obelisk? There's your answer :) I suspect leaving the shuttle behind will be the answer as to how we meet them "again" They could take something Young determined unrepairable and fix it.

I hope so it's a shame they just left them, I think we may encounter those aliens who built the obelisk and they will have the humans with them

What humans :s I was under the impression everyone returned, not just the military personnel.

Hells yes :D Dr. Jackson! and Rush in the chair even more epic.

I wondered that as well, now they "lost" a shuttle I would think maybe a ship of some kind or a gun turret which would be bad ass :D

Yea that thing was sweet, looking forward to it in action. Definitely looks like some form of robot/weapon. So I'm sure it packs some firepower. Hopefully theres more. Just that scene of them wandering around made me wish Atlantis did the same. Destiny like Atlantis is huge, so many unexplored sections.

SG1 is a classic and many episodes are unmatched, but I did seem to enjoy Atlantis more. 1 and 2 were fantastic, 3 still good but after 4 and 5 its no surprise they canned it.

Started out ok, i was excited about the possibilities on the planet but yet again it turned into another soap opera episode.

No one cares if you like it or not. Those of us discussing it, like it. You've made your opinion very clear, why are you still watching?

I kind of hope they get to the thing in the crate next episode.

As for Rush being in pain a month later: It might be an oversight, or it might be because Rush didn't get proper rest and ended up doing more damage to himself.

I liked last episode, it opened up more possibilities for future episodes and it was a good story line advancement in my opinion.

Yay...now they have a new mission other than waiting around on that hunk of metal that spends 90% of it's time in FTL. This opens the door for more possibilities because they can follow the ol' Destiny crew and now there are the folks that got left behind on the planet. I hope they go somewhere with this and don't resolve it too quickly like the Rush situation. From the promo

it looks like the ones that got left behind go exploring other planets.

I could help but think of that meme after watching this episode. Yo dawg, I heard you were lost in space so we went and got you lost in space while you were lost in space. :p

The situation is dire for Lt. Scott, Eli, Chloe and Greer. While trapped beneath the ruins in an underground maze, Destiny jumped back into FTL leaving them behind. They must first find a way out of the ruins before they can figure out how to survive without the Destiny.

Meanwhile, unable to turn the massive ship around, Dr. Rush and Colonel Young work to devise a plan to get the lost crew members back. But the situation grows even more desperate when Rush learns that Destiny will soon be leaving the present galaxy, stranding the away team forever.

I liked this episode. Rush is a well done character. I'm also glad they didn't resolve everything in just 1 hr and have the magic solution as soon as he came out of the chair. I thought it was completely stupid of them to go down into the tunnels in the first place, it was like wow -_- really wtf are you thinking. Regardless of what may be down there, why would you even risk that. Chloe and Eli alone get people into too much trouble, pair both of them together and you might as well put a bullet in your head because you're going to die.

I hope in the future they do a episode with one of the gate seeding ships. One would have to assume they are still active and possibly continuing to feed some information to Destiny.

I liked this episode because it started to flesh out Rush as a character, I can see why Carlisle took this now (I did wonder).

I don't see rush becoming a softer man by any stretch of the imagination, but what he was and where he is going is still important. His health on the other hand I can see becoming a major plot point over time;

- Being beaten unconscious by Young

- Alien probing? (you know it happened, they probed!)

- Amateur Heart surgery

- Jamming his head into a blender (the chair)

He'll be at risk of something related to these sooner or later...

As for those left behind; I can see it being easily resolved once they get out of the caves and after the next drop out of ftl, Eli's console will beep and they'll dial destiny. Given the time between dials I imagine they might have a few days even a week + before they run in to time issues.

It was nice to see them develop Rush's background more. Took me awhile to realize he was aware that he was reliving his memories. Pretty cool. As for the tunnel, yea that was obviously a bad idea, but had they not done it, where would the next episode be! I'm sure they'll all be back on Destiny in the next but it would be neat for them to be completely left behind, have the story split into 2, and have them reunite near the finale. Problem is

Rush says Destiny is leaving the current galaxy in the next ep. Which would make gating rather hard.

Favorite quote, "It was a sizeable spider, sir."

Sorry didnt realise you were a mod, i will stop posting now because im not a sheep that agrees with everyone else. This thread isnt just for people who want to praise the show.

i can't see that happening though, they would cut a huge choice of story lines, i suspect rush will find a code via the chair to unlock some basic ability to stear the ship.

^ Yea its unlikely they'd go that route but it would bring more "Stargate" into the mix as we haven't seen much in terms of gate travel. I worry what taking control of the ship might do. Not only are they ruining the ships destiny, :shifty: by taking it of course, but they are opening themselves up for attack. Then again you can't expect them to sit idle and let the ship call all the shots forever. I think the main reason they'll all be back is because of who is stranded, four main characters.

Started off slowly but love the direction the show is taking now.

For those that continue to "hate" the show, why persist to watch and post if it is that bad? That just doesn't compute (no Neowin pun intended). People can disagree but I think we already passed that point. We can all get back to enjoying the show or talking about it.

What I think is going to happen is:

the four of them will use the gates to try and leapfrog ahead of the Destiny. This would allow them to reunite once the Destiny makes a stop on a planet with a gate.

That could happen in one episode or it could be a mutli-episode arc with a plethora of problems in between.

it's only going to be 1 episode IMO. This show has so far showed an unwillingness to do a multi-episode story arc. a side note..why the continued spoiler tags? people are talking about an episode that's already happened and doing personal speculation on what may happen in the next ones. I see no reason for spoiler tags.

The last episode was interesting. I didn't expect the ending though. Can they dial a gate without a DHD? I can't remember exactly but I think they used some data pad to dial the gate on Destiny.

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
