If anything you do get the feeling that we're in for yet more action like the first one, which is good to me. I've always been a big fan of the star trek ship to ship battles like in the 2nd and 6th movies with the original crew. The 2009 movie did that good, we'll see what happens in this sequel.

The first one was all character... well, Main character. The villain was there

for fluff. I'm expecting this one to change gears and up the action ante.

But even that being said... it's still going to be character driven, obviously.

Just look at the cast. It's phenomenal.

At IMAX theaters the first 10 min of STID will screen before The Hobbit.

Ahh why would you want to see that? Seeing a trailer is one thing (though I even avoid those) but seeing the first 10 minutes then having to wait months to see the rest would be really annoying.

You think that's bad? I used to know a guy who'd pay full price at the theatre just to see a trailer for a movie he's interested in, then he'd leave. The last time I saw him was at a movie showing the trailer for "Spider-Man" (2002)!

this is really an alternate universe story to the original star trek timeline. right off the bat the owners of star trek are playing it safe. i don't think i want to invest any attachment to something that even the franchise itself has no confidence in, or can easily brush off later.

Where do you get that they have no confidence in it? JJ and his writers are huge Star Trek fans and they know the show and the universe well. Doing the "alternate universe through time travel changing history" bit is just a scifi way to reboot the series. I don't see a problem with it doing so.

Yeah, I agree. I think that would annoy me too. LOL

Will STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS Be The Last Time We See Zachary Quinto As Spock?

?It?s like an era of association with certain roles ? a specific part like Spock, or a kind of part, like Sylar ? is coming to an end,? he says.

If he doesn't play Spock anymore, then they'll have to take the story into a radically different direction. Maybe even one with a new crew and starship.

Why? Just recast it. That or add a few digits to his salary in a multi-film contract renegotiation, which is what this is probably all about.

      Hello, I have used a few TEAM Group SSDs, USB flash drives, and Micro SDXC cards in the past. They all seemed to work fine. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.

      The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
