Hmm… the device has 3 screens. (The third is visible when the device is closed)

I can’t imagine a reason to do this… other than to facilitate brining mobile games over.

There was a rumor way back that the switch was going to run Android. Obviously that didn’t happen. But it makes you wonder.

I imagine that too, but I still find it a curious omission.

Wilkinson, 52, was found shot on his driveway on Olde Waterford Road on October 19 around 8 p.m., the Washington County Sheriff's office said. He was taken to Meritus Medical Center, where he died.

Article does not mention if it is suspected homicide or suicide.

Low-income consumers are increasingly relying on debt to fund purchases, with higher borrowing costs boosting credit card delinquencies. Last quarter, the increase in wages was partially offset by a rise in personal taxes. That led to income at the disposal of households after accounting for taxes falling at a 1.0% pace last quarter. The result was that consumers dipped into their savings to fund some of their spending.

But the mystery ship is already built… implying they’ve had him for quite a while now. Why search for something they already have?

Hmm… according to Freeman’s intel… the Mystery ship was seeking out Lorcano… but as far as I can tell… he’s the mastermind.

Why would he want to find himself?

And the consequences if he refuses to pay?

My problem with ship designs in general, canon and not, is that they all tend to be so flat. Like… vertically speaking. Flat.

I’d be upset… except I don’t see any value to those services so I’m not subscribed in the first place.

As a filthy casual with little to no knowledge of comics outside of a few cartoons…

… I’m incredibly confused and distracted by retro-cyborg’s design.

IMO, it wouldn’t work well.

The DS9 set was complicated. You had obstructions and levels. Those would need to be replicated with green screen props and they tend to not bother with those. At best you’ll get uncanny valley like the Romulan Bridge in S1 Picard. Works for a specific scene, but isn’t something to dwell in.

Huh… never knew that tidbit.

It’s easy to imagine if that reality had come to play, we’d get the Tom Paris treatment… but I can’t help but wonder if we might’ve gotten a Captain Brahms.
