From the clips I've seen Matt LeBlanc seems great and a natural, but Chris Evans seems horribly, even embarrassingly, miscast.

|

Agreed, it may have been bearable without Evans being himself.

I could barely understand what Le Blanc was saying he was mumbling so much.
It was as bad as I expected it to be. Overhyped, over scripted, and Evans desperately trying to make it funny. He isnt funny, and neither was Top Gear.

I didnt bother. It was crap, and Evans is an annoying jerk.

So a combination of Windows 10 totally making my old i5 Lenovo V570 laptop a cool device to watch reboots of Windows 10 over and over and me desperately wanting to try out Parsey McParseface[^] I installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 16.04LTS over Windows 10 and I am so happy!! I have a working laptop again and I don't have to reboot it constantly or watch the screen for something to move.
Syntaxnet is compiling as I am writing this so almost there.

I'm also looking at getting out of MS dev after 20+ years and looking at *nix.
I've seriously had it with MS BS.

Well, all the cool AI stuff is out of windows. Microsoft has the cool API AI, but it just isn't easy to use out of a Windows environment and after using it in Windows 10 IoT it just wasn't happening for what I wanted, imo.
I still use desktops for Windows dev projects but Windows 10 was just not working on my laptop and I had enough.

I've been running 10 for more than 6 months, and hardly ever need to reboot. Seriously, fewer than 5 times this year.

I have to say now i have it looking the way i want it has been pretty stable.

Yes, my experience of 7 was much the same. I was not sure about moving to 10 but since my wife's PC was on 8.1, 10 had to be an improvement. When I saw what it was like I saw no reason not to update my own, and still feel the same. I liked 7 a lot, but 10 is really not that bad in comparison.

Actually, I'll probably have to eat my words, because they've got a first-rate writer, for the next movie.
... Oh, what am I saying? No matter how good the writer, the morons in hollywood will manage to fark it up!

Don't you currently live in the Nederlands? If that is the case, I have something that will fall in the same category: Eurovision[^]. Enjoy.

I offer my humble apologies for taking so long to reply to your message, but I was unable to stop puking.

Constellation was to have been essentially a fan-fiction prequel to events in the original series. It's current status is not this year, and probably not next or any other for that matter after copyright lawyers got very hot under the collar. It does have support from some Star Trek 'family' members but I wouldn't reckon on ever seeing it happen.

It's hard for me to imagine CBS doing anything worthwhile.

Well they've got themselves some nice CGI anyway. Do you think someone should remind them that they need to get some episodes written and some actors cast. Or maybe they're just not going to bother with that now they've got a flashy logo to admire?

They still have a year ahead of them and it won't air on the public CBS channel, but on the cable one.

I mean, wtf?
I've been flooded with it for the last week or so.
Have the nice boys discovered that German IPs don't get canned, or something?
