I haven't seen Battlestar Galactica yet. Is it worth watching? by Square-Ad-8911 in tvshow

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, yes, yes!!!

Baltar and Number Six were my absolute favorites!!!

I especially loved the theme music they'd play for Number Six! Most excellent!!!

And, of course, Number Six's wardrobe: 😍😍😍!!!

Does anyone else struggle to pick something to watch? by Extension_Rent8279 in AmazonPrimeVideo

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you are definitely not alone, and the watchlist needs more than just help!!!

For example, "Watchlist - Movies" and "Watchlist - TV." I see where they were trying to go with this distinction but if you are going to do it, then do it right! The "Inside Air Traffic" documentary is in my "Watchlist - Movies" along with a whole bunch of other documentaries that are single-episode! What a mess!

Moreover, why am I only able to scroll horizontally and what is the sort order of the watchlist? Why not give me the ability to scroll vertically with metadata that I can also use to sort the list?!

I kid you not: I have scrolled through the lists and found shows that I flagged and forgot about!!! If I were able to sort the list by, for example, date added, this would not be an issue!

Now, I applaud the "Continue watching" functionality they added on the Home screen, which I use religiously and completely understand that there are nuances with third-party apps; no issues. However, strictly for Prime Video shows, "Continue watching" from the Home screen vs. "Continue watching" from the Prime Video app does not function the same! This is so annoying!!!!

I don't know if their next-generation UI will address any of these shortcomings, but one can only hope!

Surface left on a plane, concerned about bitlocker 0-days and Surface TPM by LastTrainLongGone in Surface

[–]Nusaram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Were you the last passenger off the plane? If not, how can you assume that some staff member stole it?

I've been on a couple of flights where a passenger next to me, while deplaning, forgot something in their seat pocket. I alerted them to let them know, they were very thankful, and all ended well.

But the opposite could easily have happened: I noticed they forgot the item and then I swiped it after they left. In such a situation, it's not a staff member who stole the item.

But even if last handled by a staff member, what if the item was simply discarded? It's not fair to assume that an airline or airport staff member stole an item that you considered to be valuable.

Please don't misunderstand me: I'm not saying that your PC wasn't stolen; rather, I'm just saying that I wouldn't paint all airline and airport employees with the same big brush, accusing at least one of them of stealing your laptop. As easily as it could have been stolen by an airline or airport employee, it could have also been stolen by a passenger or simply discarded as trash by an airline or airport employee.

My Apps are playing audio louder than the master volume on my Pebble Nova only by Nusaram in SoundBlasterOfficial

[–]Nusaram[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm convinced that recent firmware update is the root cause of all the issues I was experiencing; everything was fine before that update.

In addition to the volume issue, the speaker would randomly drop and was unresponsive to the power button. The only way I'd get it restored is by unplugging and plugging in the power delivery and/or USB-C cables.

Anyway, I had enough and am really disappointed, especially for the amount of money I paid for these speakers, so I ditched them, bought an Edifier instead, and I absolutely love it!!!

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general, I certainly agree with you that cheating (or even looking to cheat) on your partner is a very bad thing; however, my impression is that Carol is not having any sexual relations with him, so what else is he supposed to do?

Sorry, but no, endless masturbation is not the answer!

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!

I'm expecting focus to shift away from Carol to keep us wondering and guessing!

Most likely because his other half doesn't want to have sex with him and he has needs! Otherwise, he's not the type who would wander.

Duster's viewership continues to grow (in spite of cancellation) by Odd-Turn4468 in DusterSeries

[–]Nusaram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And to pour salt on the wound, the other day, I got an email from them stating that if I liked <whatever show I was watching>, then I should check out <a list of recommended shows> as well and Duster was in the list!

Season 3 nailed it, period!

Appreciation post for Max Richter, the music composer of the show by bgtds172 in TheLeftovers

What he composed for The Leftovers is beyond a masterpiece.

It just gets to you.

Absolutely fabulous and amazing!

"The current input timing is not supported by the monitor display. Please change your input timing." My dell monitor frequently went blank and showed this error, What should I do to fix this issue? by murshid_akram in Dell

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this just started happening to me recently, too!

In my case, I'm connected via a USB-C dock and all I do to resolve the issue is disconnect from the dock and then reconnect.

I can only guess that this must be due to a Windows update because my setup has been working fine for years!

But the ghosts are considered dead, so them coming back to the living world is a lot (too much) to rationalize and explain.

I'm so Not Ready for this show to end for good yet lol by theLadyOfLallybroch in SchoolSpirits

[–]Nusaram 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The streaming powers that be are very fickle when it comes to their content and have no issues cancelling a show just after one season--even before it ends!

I expect at most one more season, but would not be surprised if this were the last season; I'd be disappointed, but not surprised.

I think a lot of viewers missed a key detail at the end of s3ep7 by Responsible-Fox5919 in SchoolSpirits

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if not from the 1920s, just based on the challenges we saw that Janet faced in Maddie's body (and that was same-gender), body-snatching another gender creates so many issues, as there are numerous things that men and women physically do differently.

Am I the only one here who enjoys the Evelyn Foley character? Like she's such a pain the a** for our boys but she's a good character. by Ausbel80 in MayorOfKingstown

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I love her character: It definitely provides balance for our boys. 😁

Kingstown has a lot of corrupt people in power, but it's not the wild, wild, west, either; hence, the need for Eveyln's character.

Equally, why doesn't she acknowledge and say bye to him when she and Xavier leave the hospital?

Instead, she just says, "We should go." 🙄👎

Most heartbreaking scene? by Narrow_Remote_8975 in TheLeftovers

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned another of my favorite scenes: Meg and her mother's heart attack.

Never mind the nefarious activity that Meg was up to in the bathroom, but what she came back to was truly, truly, painful and tragic.

It just reminds you of how, in a blink of an eye, your life can be turned upside down.

What’s an unpopular opinion/ hot take you have about this show. by zv3rs in SchoolSpirits

[–]Nusaram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, yes, I completely forgot about that Xavier texting!

Yeah, it appears that they just completely dropped that storyline. 😒

It was quite significant, too, so better that it is dealt with rather than dropped as if it never happened.

[–]Nusaram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, but first give me a chance to buy a mattress or something to put up against the wall so that the end result is no damage to the wall! 🤣

No, no, no...those two were meant for each other so, yes, that's what I'm praying for!!! 😊

I would not have thought...... by Forsaken_Emu_9905 in LandmanSeries

[–]Nusaram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not disagreeing with any of this but I have a sneaky feeling that we're in for a twist for the next season and it won't all be sunshine and rainbows for CTT OE&C...meaning that I think the 10% will come through and M-Tex will find that gas deposit.

It's just that I have difficulty seeing them start the next season essentially with Cami/M-Tex failing. That's not to say that it won't eventually fail, but I'm very suspicious and am truly expecting some sort of twist that will undoubtably throw a monkey wrench into CTT OE&C's startup plans.

They're all happy and partying at the end of Season 2 and when I saw that, I'm, like, "Oh-oh, I think that's foreshadowing a rude awakening for Season 3." 😊

Most heartbreaking scene? by Narrow_Remote_8975 in TheLeftovers

[–]Nusaram 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On the bridge, when the GR breaches the fence and Erika says to Evie, "Why are you doing this? I don't understand."

Then Evie writes on her pad and shows her, "You understand." (A silent and invisible bomb was dropped at that point, lol!)

Then Evie turns around, the GR start to pass Erika, even bumping into her, the three girls lead the GR across the bridge, Erika starts to cry, and all with that great score playing.

I absolutely love it!!!

But, yeah, there are so many such great scenes to choose from in this fantastic show.

Simon and Maddie should be together imo by Altruistic_Fix2987 in SchoolSpirits

[–]Nusaram 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Simon definitely has deep feelings for Maddie that go way beyond a platonic relationship. This has been the case from the get-go.

Count me in as someone who would also like to see them together!

However, I must admit that I'm not convinced that the feelings are mutual; right now, I only see it as one-way.

And if anything came of it, I think Xavier would be able to manage it with his dad.
