Horoscope:
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In the coming week, you will have the potential to articulate what has never been spoken before and to name truths that everyone has been avoiding. Uncoincidentally, you may also be able to hear what you’ve never been able to hear up until now and tune in to truths you’ve been oblivious to.

Stargate Universe continues to intrigue me. In Episode 4, the ship is still pretty much doing all of the work. I like the Ancient-technology-before-they-were-transcendent-beings that’s involved in Destiny. It’s definitely a cross between the Earth tech they’ve used in ships like Prometheus, but with an Ancient design. I still can’t get over how the basic shape is the same as a Wraith hive ship. Also – heartbroken overweight nerd in his early twenties… ack, flashback! Heh.
Oh! I am very, very, very happy with the copious application of actual physics in this series. Gravity used to brake and to accelerate, as well as relative velocity causing smashy smashy. Not to mention the difficulty of finding habitable planets, and how low levels of carbon monoxide in an atmosphere means that it’ll be nearly too cold to live, and have almost no vegetation. SCIENCE! In my Science Fiction! I wonder how much of this is John Scalzi‘s doing. :)
WordPress is still sexy. I’m particularly pleased with its ability to import across blog platforms.
Looks like I will be up late tonight and/or early tomorrow working. It’ll be worth it to finally get this done.
