Enterprise Season Premiere Tonight
l0key432 writes "Enterprise, Star Trek's fifth series, begins its second season on UPN tonight at 8pm/7pm central with the episode Shockwave Part II, airing just before the series premier of the new 'The Twilight Zone' show at 9pm/8pm central. Shockwave II is the conclusion to last season's season-ending cliff-hanger, and additional info can be found at this page(possible spoilers!) on StarTrek.com." Of course with my luck, it'll be pre-empted by some sporting event.
Forget preempted, around here you need that fancy digital cable thingy to even get the channel its on.
And digital cable sux0r oh so very much : (
You can't take the sky from me...
So, my question is, what would you recommend as a desktop which is Icaza- and stupidity-free? I.e., I want a desktop as I used to have. I guess what I'm really asking is -- what is a good window manager? All the integrated desktops give me (that I actually use) is a pretty task bar..
BTW this is *not* a troll, I just want some advice on a lightweight politics and crud free window manager.
Yes, well it may be airing if your in a certain part of the world, but for everywhere else in the world, it's not.
/. readers are from North America !
Oh - but wait - I forgot ! - 99.9% of
Silly me...
A slashdotting - you get the stick first and then the carrot !
A question for those that have already seen it: Does it have the same horrific opening theme song?
Some real sci-fi!
I'm so sick of waiting for new episodes. Enterprise is, bar none, the best sci-fi show on TV.
That includes Farscape. "We fired our writers and hired a 6th grade creative writing class!"
I mean come on. Fucking telepathic clams? This is supposed to be quality!??! Not to mention that the alien races look worse than most Halloween costumes! If you think those are good, you obviously haven't been involved in any theater!
I'm looking forward to having some good sci-fi. Fortunately, even when Star Trek sucks (which Enterprise most definitely doesn't), it's better than Farscape, Babylon "We Love Politics" 5, and Star "Overacting is not optional" Wars.
Dragging people kicking and screaming into reality since 1996.
100% agree. Right from the title music I just knew it'd be crap. I gave it a chance, and watched twice, but I realized I honestly couldn't care less about any of the characters, the technology, or the plot. Which doesn't leave much.
At least Voyager had Jeri Ryan as eye-candy...
Code, Hardware, stuff like that.
The worst terrorist attack in recorded history occurred over a year ago, followed by a Holy War against Islam, and now Israel and the Palestinians as well as India and Pakistan are teetering on the brink of their own war, Argentina is in the midst of a financial crisis, America is considering launching attacks against Somalia and Iraq, and you people have the gall to be discussing the season premier of Enterprise???? My *god*, people, GET SOME PRIORITIES!
The bodies of the thousands of innocent civilians who died (and will die) in these unprecedented events could give a good god damn about the Xandros Desktop, your childish Lego models, your nerf toy guns and whining about the lack of a "fun" workplace, your Everquest/Diablo/D&D fixation, the latest Cowboy Bebop rerun, or any of the other ways you are "getting on with your life" (here's a hint: watching Cowboy Bebop in your jammies and eating a bowl of Shreddies is *not* "getting on with your life"). The souls of the victims are watching in horror as you people squander your finite, precious time on this earth playing video games!
You people disgust me!
have you ever heard of fucking warez, why not jkill yourself fuck you.
