    Very strange ... especially since it was directed by Peter DeLuise! All fixed.

    You can always send me corrections at: [email protected]

    Thanks!

    I just happened to be on this page: https://www.gateworld.net/sg1/s9/prototype/

    and noticed this (it's probably been like this for years):
    TELEPLAY BY: William Waring
    DIRECTED BY: Alan McCullough

    which should be​ this:
    TELEPLAY BY: Alan McCullough
    DIRECTED BY: William Waring

    I just thought Darren should know this, so he can fix it at some point.

    Oh definitely ;-)

    Not a lot of content anyways these days on streaming too which could convince me to pay for it.
    I haven't seen a movie or series that I would be interested in watching on Netflix, Disney+, ... in a couple of years, never really got a lot of value out of it.

    A lot of filler-content on Netflix in my opinion, Marvel and Star Wars on Disney+ isn't all that great. Am a bit fed up with Marvel (always the same story it seems, heard a lot of negative remarks about the latest one too, what's it called, Secret Invasion?), Star Wars briefly got my attention with the mandalorian, but once season 2 started I quickly lost interest there too. Book of boba fett was a disaster too.

    Dunno, that's my personal opinion of course, but I don't think those streaming providers are worth their money.

    Who knows, IF (big IF...) a new Stargate appears on Amazon, that might convince me to pay again, but even then, I'll probably just pay for the duration it takes me to watch a season (or a movie?) and then cancel my subscription again.

    Ah! Sorry to cause confusion.

    All it means is that some forums/sites have a login page but no display of the threads and posts so you have to sign up or log in "blind" before you can read and check out anything.

    Forgot to say: it appears tweeting limits have either been lifted or I got lucky.No problems accessing Twitter and trendings yesterday or today.
    (Hopefully I haven't jinxed myself...or something else isn't about to go wrong!)

    Still a blind log in, but if that's what it takes,then so be it.

    Cookies are good, and are normally not cleared. I don't have my settings set to clear-all-when-I-leave. That's only used on anything related to my work laptop.

    It also doesn't happen all the time -- like just now, nothing amiss so I'm thinking it's just a bug or some such.
    Weird glitch.Wish it could be fixed!

    Same here. Since about 6 months, I guess just about around the time Elon Musk took over Twitter, I decided to ditch everything: no more Facebook, no more Facebook Messenger, no more Twitter, no more Instagram, ... At first tried out Mastodon, but ditched it too after a few months, not a lot of appeal there.

    We also made the deliberate choice here at home to not get any streaming too: no Netflix, Disney+, ... over here since almost a year. Hardly watch any TV anymore, unless the occasional Stargate-episode which I have on DVD of course

    And guess what? I've gained so much time now to do other more relevant and interesting things
    I've been reading books, I've been studying, ...

    Were you using your regular device and browser or a phone?

    I think it's upped to 1000 tweets but I take your point! Really hoping once all this thing about API/monetising dies down,rationing posts will end.

    Mastodon might be a good idea ,but there are other places to go for anyone who needs it."Threads" is upcoming too via instagram so that might be handy for anyone who feels like trying it out once there's more info.
