    - Watch Rebecca on Netflix
    - Start (And probably finish) season 2 of Star Trek Discovery
    - Order Korean food for takeout one day

    Wanted to provide a critical update to my weekend to-do list:

    - Watch the new epsiode of The Mandalorian

    Watched this and enjoyed it quite a bit. I like how the episodes are light and fun. (At least so far)

    - Watch the new Borat movie

    Watched this too. I was a bit disappointed. It seemed a bit disconnected, with the storyline added later just to link whatever successful "bits" he recorded. However there were some amusing parts, mostly in the last 15 minutes.

    - Watch Rebecca on Netflix

    Watched as well. Both myself and the wife liked this one. It had really bad Netflix compression artifacts then. I think Netflix is using a new adaptive frame rate codec (I read about it somewhere) and it makes some things look really bad. Of course how great can the movie be if I'm talking about the compression. Movie is ok.

    - Start (And probably finish) season 2 of Star Trek Discovery

    Didn't finish the season, but I did get 4 episodes under my belt. Starts out very much like an action movie. I hope they get a bit more cerebral in later episodes. Some have told me Season 2 was their favorite. I hope it holds up.

    - Order Korean food for takeout one day

    Done

    - Order Mexican food for takeout another day

    Done

    - Clean my kitchen up a bit

    Yes, done. I even waxed the cutting board.

    - Read the Echos several times a day hoping there is something new

    Done. I've noticed the weekend traffic dips a bit. Maybe people spending family time?

    Anyone have any good weekend plans?

    Retrospectively;

    - I hosted and streamed on YouTube and Twitch my weekly MRC "MeaTuP"
    - I had my daughter come over and we played games;
    - She was detective and I had to leave clues around the house
    - We played "Connect four" or it's cheaper alternative "Four in a row"
    - I made dinner for me and my daughter
    - We watched the rain pouring outside
    - I purchased a card and a few presents for my daughter's mum's birthday
    - I took my daughter home to her mum's
    - I played some more of my newest game "Teardown" and managed to get past
    the level that's been denying me for 3 days solid

    That's about all I did this weekend just gone.


    Here are mine:
    - Watch the new epsiode of The Mandalorian

    Nice! I want to watch that too, but I will wait until a few episodes are available and then download them to watch offline.

    - Watch the new Borat movie

    I don't really like Borat, the first one I thought was bad generally and I had no intention of watching the second.

    - Watch Rebecca on Netflix

    Not heard of this, will look it up

    - Start (And probably finish) season 2 of Star Trek Discovery

    I watched Season 1, right up to the end, thought it was terribly slow to begin with, got quite interesting and even fun towards the end.

    Season 2 first episode didn't hold my concentration though so I have only seen maybe half of the first episode.

    - Order Korean food for takeout one day

    That sounds yummy

    - Order Mexican food for takeout another day

    That sounds yummy also

    - Clean my kitchen up a bit

    Meh

    - Read the Echos several times a day hoping there is something new

    That's a great idea.


    Hope y'all have a great week too.
