Hard-ish science fiction about the solar system being fully colonized but NOT past Pluto?

I really like the idea of just our solar system being human's back yards, the stars are too out there, literally, for what I'm looking for. Something like Call of Duty Infinite Warfare if anyone here knows that.

My touchpad has been freezing up a ton today out of the blue....

I've tried all I can think of to fix it but it keeps happening. It's clean and not damaged FYI. Any ideas?

Was the moon in Terrarium really dark and hard to see what was happening on screen for anyone else?

I have my TV brightness turned almost all the way up and most of the time on the moon I still could barely see anything.

So, aparently according to you guys, Strange new worlds is in the same continuity as tos-enterprise, but how can that be?

Please no spoilers for SNW, I just started it. I only watched a tiny bit of discovery before I gave up on it so I guess that's also part of the same cannon, but I don't get how that can be. For one Uhura is there when she wasn't in The Cage. Also apparently the federation and klingons in SNW have already been to war which was not the case in TOS. There's tons of details like this beyond the obvious better tech then there should be that proves this cannot be in the same timeline as the pre discovery shows. If I'm missing something please let me know.

Any other cynics who enjoy Star Trek?

Star Trek is all about optimism for humanity's future. whereas even though I have been a fan for most of my life I'm VERY cynical about humanity and I don't at all believe a utopia is possible. Anyone else in the same boat?

I plan on giving Enterprise another shot, but I'm gonna skip the first season, should I also skip the second season or go straight to the third?

I watched Enterprise live back in the day but the first season was.....not good, so I bailed. But I always hear the show got really good but apparently only at the very end of the second season. So where should I pick the show back up from?

I just watched the first 2 episodes of strange new worlds, my spoiler free thaughts

I can't stand 'new trek', but so far this is pleasantly surprising to me. I do wish the qiuping was dialed down a bit, does that get worse or better? I also really like this take on Spock. This actually feels so far like Star Trek, something I can't say about what saw of Discovery and Picard. I have 2 questions though. One, is it strange for anyone else that Pike and Number one are involved on the same ship but so far no one is brining this fact up? And 2, for Uhura, why is there a cadet on the ship? If that was explained I missed it.

Edit. Crap, I must have gotten the actresses mixed up, Batel and number one, sorry guys, my mistake on that one.

I'm confused about how the writers had Khan in Space seed treet McGivers

Yes I know it was the 60's, but it's confusing for me as it seams that most of the sexism from Khan was MEANT to be interpreted as bad by the audience. Am I totally off on that? I mean he was the big bad of that episode and TOS, or was the sexism meant to just be how women were supposed to be treated in the eyes of the writers? I honestly can't tell from how Ricardo Montalbán pays the character, if he's supposed to be bad becuase of how he treats McGivers or it was just 1960's men being men back then. Am I making sense with my question here?

I finally found the right game for me, and I'm blocked by a puzzle and my disabilities

This will be a very odd post. I've been trying every game in the series and I feel the third one, yes, that one, is the only one I really enjoy. But I have certain neurological disabilities I won't go into and I was having fun but I hit the Sabaean Script Puzzle in the Chateau and even with a youtube video guide there's just no way I can do this puzzle. I was really loving the game compared to the others, I don't know know why the others didn't speak to me but the the third one hit all the right notes for me, but damn it, this puzzle literally kills the game for me. I could try asking a family member to do it for me but what, am I gonna hand over the controls every time I replay this section? I'm really upset, this is just a rant, I know this sounds really strange but I'm not trolling.

Did the people who created Harley Quinn's Revenge not the same who worked on the main game?

I've said before that the level design for City is a huge problem for me, it just bores me against the other games. But that's not the case for Harley Quinn's Revenge, the level design is fantastic in that dlc. So the people who created that dlc, were they different from main game devs?

For some reason for edibles only chocolates get me high, and only at high MG.

5 and 10 MG's don't affect me at all sadly. with and so far only with chocolates. I've had pills that were for sure higher than 15 and they have done nothing. I have gummies that are the same MG as the chocolate and they only made my mind a bit fuzzy. Meanwhile I've gotten high with chocolates about a half a dozen times. How does this make sense?

unpopular opinion, but I like the game's story and characters much more then the first game

My only real issue with the game's story is like I am sure everyone agrees that Venem himself should have gotten more time. But that's really it, I don't see how this games story sucks, I just don't see the issues. I didn't feel the first game's story worked so yeah,doubly unpopular opinion I guess.

For people who have played Origins using playstation plus, how does it run?

My xbox 360 copy freezes up all the time, the game was known for glitches, so on playstation plus the game is streamed. How does it run on playstation nowadays?

For reasons I don't understand the web swinging in the first game feels WAY better and controls much better than the sequel.

I've put enough time in both and I have played with the swing assist to know this is something I consistently feel. In the second game the web swinging just is off to me. Two specific things I can point out is you get way more height when you swing compared to the other games so I'm spending much more time in free fall to even reach buildings and that hurts the flow. ANd secondly the advanced point launch timing is really different from the previous game; I've been through the second game twice and I still can't get the timing as good as in the first game. Can anyone make sense of how this could be?

I know it will never happen, but I wish they made a movie where batman was truly terrifying

There's a film called the Mothman Prophecies that I wish a batman film could be filmed in the style of. The whole film really never shows the monster directly, it focuses on everyone freaking out over their reactions to it and the film is incredibly erie. I wish for once Batman could be truly frightening and the audience would buy that criminals would be terrified of him. Burnton and Nolan sort of did this with Batman's first scenes but after them Batman was never scary.

Can pot be very unreliable for some people?

There's 4 of us in my family where half the time at best we either don't get high all what we feel is something that is not a high, like spaced out. I've tried different types like half a dozen times and I've only had a real high 2 times. Why are we so unlucky?

It's time for a Trek show from the Aliens POV

I've wanted this for a long time. Maybe the Kingons POV without humans, I would love that. There was a DS9 episode that was sort of like that. It was all on a klingon ship with Just Worf and Dax as the regulars and everyone else was the klingons and it was amazing. Star Trek should embrace the non human races it has created and stop using starfleet as the only POV.I know, this would be a hard sell for the network, especially now, but I think it's high time this was tried. What do you think?

for the base game you have 4 rifles, starting with the Garand and the last rifle you can unlock is the Lee-Enfield. the ultimate addition with all of the dlc rifles you can access at any time. To upgrade the 4 primary rifles you need to collect 15 weapon parts in the campaign. I have done this and yet I still can't access a lot of the customization options for these rifles, and yes I'm sure have all 15 weapon parts. For the dlc rifles for some reason you can fully upgrade them from the start of the game. I want to know if anyone knows how to really fully upgrade the standard 4 rifles of the base game. I've asked this before and no one knew. Remember in 3 there are no weapon benches or kill challenges.
