Looking forward at the day (soon) where the memes die down, nothing happens to Boeing, and we basically forget this ever happened. Then a couple months later someone will post, "TIL Boeing Was Fined for Killing Whistleblowers" right after Boeing posts some record quarterly report.

I am surprised none of these people has done one of those deadman switches to increase their chance of survival. Like a thing somewhere that info dumps all the incriminating evidence on the web if the user hasn't entered a passcode for 48 hours

If I want a suicide-by-cop outcome, I’d be a boeing whistleblower.

Just rewatch the last season. That'll cure you.

The last season was fine. I won't go as far as to say it was great, it wasn't, but it was fine.

90% of the commentators that I see saying the last season sucked completely misunderstood what actually happened. And that's the shows fault, to be clear,at least to some degree.

I'm currently watching it for the first time and the flash-forwards just started happening and I'm kinda losing interest. Worth watching the rest of should I just stop now? The first 2-3 seasons were pretty great tho.

Yes,, it gets worse, lol.

[–] rob64@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

The first 2-3 seasons are great. And that's because it's excellent characters in an unusual situation with just a splash of mystery/paranormal. The end of the show sucks, because they wrote it like they knew where it was leading, but they didn't. The big reveals are very unsatisfying. Would have been better if they just ended it with no answers and let it develop organically instead of shoe-horning a "this is what it was all leading to" ending into it.
