This is important bedrock for the tension in the relationship because it establishes they both have information to hold over one another. Soji strongly suspects Narek is part of the Tal Shiar, while Narek has a lead on the Romulan involvement with the Borg cube that Soji is interested in. This isn’t the case of

“There was a time before all this Marvel shit was coming out,” Tarantino said. “It was after Reservoir Dogs, it was before Pulp Fiction, and I had thought about doing Luke Cage. Growing up I was a big comic book collector, and my two favorite [comic books] were Luke Cage: Hero for Hire, later Luke
Shortly after setting out into Skyrim’s wild West, I was approached by a mortally wounded Bronhold the Nord, who hands me a journal just before he takes his last breath. The journal contains investigative entries about the coven that kidnapped me, and the quests branch off from there. The conspiracies surrounding the coven bleed into

The other successful twisted use of a calling was the continued unfolding of the “Let him go!” compulsion that Mick defied last week. At first, it seemed that the calling was leading Michaela down a dark path as Adrian warned of, allowing criminals to walk free, but even though Michaela worried that the explosion of
For now, though, let’s begin that speculation. A new Paper Mario game certainly seems like a realistic prospect at this point. We haven’t really gotten a new Paper Mario game for consoles since 2016’s Paper Mario: Color Splash for Wii U, so it makes sense that Nintendo would choose to revisit it now. The fact
So you’re in quarantine, and you’ve got kids playing too much Roblox while the school system scrambles to put digital learning in place. Even for families with experience educating at home, it can be a daunting task coming up with learning experiences to fill a student’s day, especially with most public libraries closed during the
Professor’s Research Price: $2.83 – $3.39 (or $22.00 – $22.49 for full art Hyper Rare) No deck has any business running fewer than three copies of Professor’s Research. In any game of Pokémon, you need cards and Prof’s Research is how you get them. The good news here is that unless you want to splurge
MEDFORD/SOMERVILLE, Mass. (March 30, 2020)–Researchers led by biomedical engineers at Tufts University invented a microfluidic chip containing cardiac cells that is capable of mimicking hypoxic conditions following a heart attack – specifically when an artery is blocked in the heart and then unblocked after treatment. The chip contains multiplexed arrays of electronic sensors placed outside
“I thought [Data’s Picard goodbye] was pretty great,” he said. “It was an unbelievably beautifully written scene — [showrunner] Michael Chabon at his finest. Both Patrick and I were both like, ‘This is fantastic,’ and we were both really moved by it. It was just wonderfully written, and I think the intent was to soften
AMD revealed that a hacker has stolen files possibly related to the Xbox Series X’s GPU (among other products) and is now holding them for ransom. “In December 2019, we were contacted by someone who claimed to have test files related to a subset of our current and future graphics products, some of which were
It’s not surprising that Alex Garland, who is known for films like Ex Machina and Annihilation, is the creator behind Devs, a series on Hulu that features his trademark obsessed tech guru that has let his own invention become way too powerful. In this case, the world is one in which predictive algorithms have become
Two classic Star Wars games are now officially coming to the Nintendo Switch. During today’s surprise Nintendo Direct announcement, Nintendo confirmed that Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy and Star Wars Episode 1: Racer are set to debut on the Switch. Jedi Academy is set to launch on the Switch today (it’s also seemingly going
In real life, Zheng He was a 15th-century Chinese mariner and fleet admiral. In fact, one fleet of sailing ships he commanded, the treasure fleet, was one of the first known group of ships to use star charts and constellations for navigation. In this sense, Zheng He commanded a “Star Fleet.” In the context of
While that is undoubtedly the right move, it does put GameStop in an awkward position from a business perspective. The company was reportedly struggling even before the spread of the coronavirus, and there are some who believe that the company may not be able to survive a multi-month shutdown. So while some are speculating that
So, yeah, officially making Seven of Nine—a legacy character who remains one of the most popular figures in the entire Trek franchise—bisexual is definitely a big deal, and something that should be celebrated as an important step forward. (Gene Roddenberry, I think, would be proud.) Furthermore, this twist shouldn’t necessarily come as that big of
Or…well, it was set for April 15. The COVID-19 pandemic has hit the entertainment industry hard and the comic book distribution is no different. As of right now, all Marvel releases are put on hold indefinitely, so I guess consider Empyre #1‘s release date to be “about two weeks after things go back to normal.”
“In some sense right now [supply] is not a real issue,” Nadella notes. “I think the bigger issue is what happens in the United States, in Europe, and other developing markets, around the demand side of this going forward.” The CEO of GameStop echoed the sentiment of both companies by saying that he ha received
So what happened to Data again to get him dead? In Star Trek: Nemesis, Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-E had to stop Picard’s younger evil clone, Shinzon (Tom Hardy) from destroying the Federation with a deadly weapon composed of something called Thalaron radiation. Like many of the TNG-era feature films, Nemesis played out
Those who have played other asymmetrical multiplayer experiences will know roughly what to expect from this game. The four soldiers must use a combination of modern weapons and teamwork in order to defeat the predator (or escape) and a band of A.I controlled enemies. The predator, meanwhile, not only has access to high-tech alien weaponry
Skoltech scientists developed highly sensitive sensors based on cobalt oxide nanoflakes which are capable of detecting various alcohols in the air. The new sensors can be used for both medical diagnostics and detection of toxic methanol in the air. Smart devices and the Internet of Things are gaining popularity and becoming a part of our
In the Legends universe Since the description of the mines is based on the films, Kessel in the Legends timeline was pretty similar to how it appears in The Clone Wars. The factions fighting over it were the difference, with warlords and Imperials competing for control of the valuable spice. The space anomalies that make

Scientists have developed a way of extracting a richer palette of colours from the available spectrum by harnessing disordered patterns inspired by nature that would typically be seen as black. Colours that we see in nature often come from nanoscale patterns that reflect light back in particular ways. A butterfly’s wing, for example, might appear
