So I'm just now getting around to watching season 6...

3 episodes in and I have to say it's been the worse season start yet.

It's all moving so slow. The killings are a snoozefest.

Nothing interesting. All very predictable.

The whole Dexter and his kid thing I feel is meaningless time on the screen.

The whole Religion theme vibe I'm getting from it so far is completely not interesting in the least.

Speaking of which; Mos Def's character is the only thing remotely interesting so far.

Again, I just finished the 3rd episode. So I'm hoping something starts developing soon.

I'm really hoping the twist isn't going to be what we all think it is, and while I still love the show, the writing is nowhere near on par with the first few seasons!

Also I fear this person may have gotten the ending spot on :\

Dexter will ultimately find out Gellar isn't real, and in Travis' mind.

Dexter will still want to kill Travis, but taking in what he learned from Brother Sam coupled with Travis' obvious mental illness, Dexter will allow Travis to live and let the justice system have him for once.

Dexter will learn understanding and forgiveness, which has been the major theme of this season.

Hmm, it is all possible, there would be a few holes in the way the acting and such was done if the first point was valid. Maybe I am missing the twist you all seem to know is coming.. I definitely don't see it.

This season has to be one of the better ones, I honestly found the Trinity one and the one with the big Mexican/Cuban to be boring seasons.

I don't see the twist either. So far I LOVE this season. I just wish I had the rest of season so I could watch them back to back.

The first point was the twist, if you're looking for it, there are massive hints and especially in the last episode to back it up. But then again it could just be a red herring from the writers, either way it still makes for entertaining TV!

Maybe I am just looking at it too basic? Like I don't see how he could be chained and bloody with a poker in the fire without Geller.. unless this is fight club all over again? Spoiler some of the hints, the only one I could possibly see is Dexter not Seeing Geller.

- no one has interacted with geller whatsoever except travis, even when other people have been in the same room, e.g. when the woman serves travis coffee she completely ignores geller who doesn't even have a cup or plate.

- in episode 5 they are praying near the start. travis looks at geller and a close up on geller shows blood on his head. travis double takes and then the blood has disappeared in the following close up of geller. travis talks about only being able to hear his own voice banging around in his head soon after this

- his sister describes travis as a good artist/painter in front of her class. i don't think we've seen travis paint once, but we've seen geller do it plenty of times.

-just watch it as someone with deeply worrying mental issues and internal struggles and it makes just as much sense

etc...

regarding this ep (sorry)

again, gellar isn't really necessary to explain anything. we know travis rode past his sister's as deb was leaving so we know he knew she spoke to the police. why might a crazy ass person tie himself up and burn himself? that doesn't need to be explained. also remember certain physical arrangements don't have to be literal. i know in this case dexter found him tied up but be prepared to take things like that as metaphorical, either as a sole explanation for certain depictions or as an underlying thing... e.g. the good part in travis is being held back. the show has already had dexter's bro pitchfork someone!

geller disappeared when travis's sister called...

travis's childhood background and relationship to sister is very similar to dexter's. dexter is a psychopathic serial killer.

okay, that all makes perfect sense, I definitely didn't watch it deep enough to think like that. It is true though with Dexter as a prime example (The dead/not around characters he sees as real).

sorry, i dont know if it's really necessary to wrap all this in spoilers... i'd just like to add that i think there are enough facts about geller to be sure he did exist once. but i think he's probably now dead, unknown to anyone else. my guess - inspired by the blood that was briefly trickling down geller's head - is that travis killed him for some reason and he's probably rotting in the abandoned church somewhere. hey, one twist for those already expecting the geller's-in-his-mind twist might be that geller is still alive - perhaps far away and completely ignorant of what's going on with travis, or perhaps held captive by travis, who knows. could prove interesting if dexter ran into geller whilst still in the dark about all this ;)

All of that doesn't explain why the girl Travis let go said there was two people. She was hearing things, too?

She never said she heard two people if you listen closely to what she says, she said something along the lines of, "I heard one of the men refer to the other as professor". She never actually heard two people and just assumed that if someone is talking to another person known as "the professor" then there must be two people!

That is where it's at its most ridiculous. But remember she had a blindfold, can't remember off the top of my head but I'm sure it could be explained (however ridiculous). Look, the writers aren't completely dumb, there is absolutely no doubt that they are aware they are writing this in a way which allows this interpretation. It's fully intentional. Whether it's a double bluff or haven't made up their mind on how to end it I can't say.

Edit, nice one Kyle. Not so ridiculous.

Yeah I'm pretty much agreed with you on the two scenarios you posted about Gellar as well, anyway all the speculation makes me get psyched up for the finale!

And I just rewatched when the girl was talking and the conversation went:

Girl: "One of them kept calling the other professor, but I didn't see either of them, I was blindfolded"

Batista: "There were two of them?"

Girl: "The younger guy was the one who let me go, I sorta could tell that he was the weaker of the two. The younger guy said he kept calling me the ######."

and then later she describes how she thinks the professor jammed his knee in the back of her head to keep her mouth open, and that "the younger guy kept saying he was sorry, so sorry for doing this to me." It's very cleverly worded to make you think she was in the company of two people, but she never actually heard the professor speak. Again though, this could be entirely wrong it's still all speculation at this point, but along with the points snappy put, there's some pretty strong evidence against him being real!

Well, it appears they went with the FightClub ending after all. Would have loved if they had pulled a fast one on us and had Gellar be real but somehow convince Dexter and us that he was dead. But it's the ending everyone has predicted. Don't see the need for spoiler tags as everyone who's been watching has been expecting this. If it wasn't for FightClub and The Usual Suspects, this may actually have been a good ending, but unfortunately it's too predictable now. Loved everyone

getting covered in blood

though :laugh:

Poor Deb, everything keeps getting worse for her.

Well, the sister of Batista is getting involved with that nerd and he's probably not 100% clean..... So that's something they could develop a bit...

Yeah, poor Deb, but I'm getting tired of Quinn....

Only 3 episode left.... Season 6 will be over.

      Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.

With its intuitive interface, Subtitle Edit provides a variety of features such as waveform audio display, spell-check, subtitle synchronization, and real-time video preview, making it an ideal choice for both beginners and professionals. The software also includes powerful tools for batch processing, translating subtitles, and converting between different subtitle formats. Subtitle Edit features: Create/adjust/sync/translate subtitle lines Convert between SubRib, MicroDVD, Advanced Sub Station Alpha, Sub Station Alpha, D-Cinema, SAMI, youtube sbv, and many more (300+ different formats!) Cool audio visualizer control - can display wave form and/or spectrogram Video player uses mpv, DirectShow, or VLC media player Visually sync/adjust a subtitle (start/end position and speed) Audio to text (speech recognition) via Whisper or Vosk/Kaldi Auto Translation via Google translate Rip subtitles from a (decrypted) dvd Import and OCR VobSub sub/idx binary subtitles Import and OCR Blu-ray .sup files - bd sup reading is based on Java code from BDSup2Sub Can open subtitles embedded inside Matroska files Can open subtitles (text, closed captions, VobSub) embedded inside mp4/mv4 files Can open/OCR XSub subtitles embedded inside divx/avi files Can open/OCR DVB and teletext subtitles embedded inside .ts/.m2ts (Transport Stream) files Can open/OCR Blu-ray subtitles embedded inside .m2ts (Transport Stream) files Merge/split subtitles Adjust display time Fix common errors wizard....and more. Subtitle Edit 5.0.0 changelog: Subtitle Edit 5 is a major new release and a big step for the project. For the first time, Subtitle Edit runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux from a single, modern, cross-platform codebase. The builds are self-contained, so no separate .NET installation is required, and on macOS and Linux the needed media components (mpv/ffmpeg) are bundled in. Please read before upgrading: Subtitle Edit 5 is a new application, not just an update of Subtitle Edit 4. It has been rebuilt from the ground up to be cross-platform, so: It is not 100% the same app. The look, layout, and some workflows have changed. Some things are in different places, and a few behave differently than in SE4. Not every SE4 feature exists in SE5 yet. SE5 covers all the core editing, conversion, sync, video playback, OCR, and online services, but some of the more specialized SE4 tools are not available yet. Features will continue to be added. If you rely on a specific SE4 feature that is missing, please keep SE4 installed alongside SE5. The easiest way to run both side by side is to use the Portable versions of SE4 and SE5, which keep their settings separate and do not interfere with each other. Which version should I use? Subtitle Edit 5: recommended for most users on Windows 10 (22H2) or newer, macOS 12+, and Linux. Subtitle Edit 4: please continue to use SE4 if you are on an older Windows version (Windows 7/8), or on older / slower computers where SE5 may not run well. SE4 remains available and is the right choice in those cases. To run SE4 and SE5 at the same time, use the Portable versions - you can try SE5 while keeping SE4 as a fallback.

    • Google Pixel 11 series: Here's what to expect

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Google Pixel 11 series: Here's what to expect by Hamid Ganji Google Pixel 10 series In recent years, Google has successfully turned its Pixel devices into worthy contenders in the smartphone market. The search giant is now preparing to launch the Pixel 11 series in just a few months, and many Pixel fans are likely wondering what Google has in store for them this year. The next lineup of Google smartphones includes four devices: the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. This year, we don’t expect Google to bring revolutionary upgrades to its handsets, and the Pixel 11 series is likely to receive modest hardware improvements alongside a slew of AI-powered features. Here are the rumored specifications of the Google Pixel 11 series ahead of its official debut: When will the new Pixel phones be unveiled? The last two generations of Google Pixel phones (Pixel 9 series and Pixel 10 series) were launched in August, unlike the previous three generations that debuted in October. With that in mind, we expect Google to unveil the Pixel 11 series sometime in August 2026. The exact launch date has yet to be confirmed. Google Pixel 11 CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines How much will the Pixel 11 series cost? Predicting the final price of upcoming smartphones has become increasingly difficult. As you may know, RAM and memory prices are rising sharply, leading to significant increases in the cost of consumer electronics. Recently, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that price increases for some future Apple products are unavoidable, suggesting that the iPhone 18 series could become more expensive. Google has remained tight-lipped about any potential price increases for the Pixel 11 series. If the company manages to maintain last year’s pricing structure, here’s what the lineup could cost: Pixel 11: $799 Pixel 11 Pro: $999 Pixel 11 Pro XL: $1,199 Pixel 11 Pro Fold: $1,799 Given current market conditions, it may be difficult for Google to avoid raising prices unless it adopts cost-saving measures, such as equipping the base model with 8GB of RAM. Google Pixel 11 series anticipated specs: We expect the Google Pixel 11 series to debut with a new Tensor G6 processor as well as an upgraded camera system. The overall design, however, is expected to remain largely unchanged across the lineup. Specifications Pixel 11 Pixel 11 Pro Pixel 11 Pro XL Pixel 11 Pro Fold Display 6.3-inch LTPO AMOLED / 120Hz refresh rate / up to 3100 nits of brightness 6.3-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 6.8-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 8-inch inner screen and 6.4-inch outer display, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness RAM & Processor Tensor G6 / 8-12GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 16GB of RAM Storage options 128GB or 256GB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB Camera 50MP main sensor, 13MP ultra-wide, 10.8MP 5x telephoto, 10.5MP front camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 10.5MP ultra-wide camera, 10.8MP telephoto camera, 10MP front camera, 10MP inner camera Battery 4,840 mAh 4,707 mAh 5,000 mAh 4,658 mAh Software Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 The Pixel 11 series won’t be a major departure from its predecessor, with Google instead focusing on subtle improvements and AI additions such as Gemini Intelligence. However, a patent filed by Google suggests the company is working on a removable battery for its smartphones, and we could see this feature make its way to the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Given that nearly all smartphones today lack removable batteries, such a feature would be a welcome addition to future Pixel devices. That said, it may not arrive with this year’s lineup after all, and the final decision is yet to be made by Google. The Pixel 11 series could also face an uphill battle in the market. In the Android segment, Samsung is performing well with the Galaxy S26 series, while the Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup is also expected to launch next month. On the other hand, Apple is preparing to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max in September alongside its first foldable iPhone.
