    They’re only one step away, people, and I’m not even sure about the 🚫 on red scanning visual sensors.

          A scanner is a machine that creates a digital version of a physical object, most commonly a piece of paper. But that’s not important right now.

          In Battlestar Galactica, humanity has fled earth after a hostile takeover by AI. On their last remaining ark fleeing to a habitable planet are Cylons, AI disguised as humans, some not even aware they ARE cylons. Fantastic show.

            finally got around to finishing that, it was pretty good, my only beef was

            spoiler

            whatever the hell Starbuck was after she came back? Also, they introduced the concept of cylons ‘casting’ visions, but evidently that wasn’t what Gaius was experiencing? then what was it? Seemed like they were pushing the idea of christianity in a freaking science fiction show, and it completely turned me off the last season.

                Wait did I miss something I read that like 10 years ago…

                Also, I used to think the message board propaganda thing that the siblings did that radicalized more than half of the voters was far fetched and a little corny. Turns out that was the most realistic part.
