Love the show. But really not sold on Rebecca Ferguson as the star. She's the wrong actress for the role. She attempts to compensate for her petite and frail physical appearance with combative overacting in exchanges, and is in no way threatening to anyone. I'd like to see a more imposing and authoritative figure in the role, someone like Queen Latifah, for instance. Her talent is wasted on that stupid "Equalizer" show. Or maybe Gina Carano!

If nothing else you are remarkably consistent with your sexism. 

Sexism? Both my suggestions are female, last I checked. In my milieu, neither petite nor frail are pejorative. Just not suitable for an action series.

Frail definitely has a perjorative sense, and is not a word I'd readily associate with Rebecca Ferguson.

Maybe it does ring pejorative to some sensitive (is that pejorative?) individuals (not me), point conceded. But use a photo as she appears in Silo, where she looks sunken-cheeked, hollow-eyed and anorexic, not Mission Impossible, where she temporarily added the wee bit of muscle tone you see here!

Now I'm leaning toward replacing her with Jason Momoa or Michael B. Jordan!

Gee, you think that the producers, of which Rebecca was one, didn't dress Rebecca to reflect Juliette's life in the Silo?

Somehow, I got the impression that life was harsh in the Silo, but maybe you would like to see it more like Season Two of "White Lotus", where Jennifer Coolidge was the badass action figure?

Nope. I want to see more of a different female Apple star: Hannah Waddingham! That's a person with everything. She's talented, smart, classy and if you're still not convinced life isn't fair, she sings like Aretha Franklin, and is physically stunning. Basically everything I lack!

Probably this is common knowledge, but why has Apple made so much Not user upgradable? Is it to sell more new machines ? Is it to eliminate technical problems when users upgrade? Conceptually, I want more control of the thing I pay thousands for.

Hey Dorsey, Remember what you told regular Americans who didn't like what you were doing at Twitter - "If you don't like it, go build your own social media site"? Time to take your own advice. Go build your own App store, you entitled pr!ck.

Under normal circumstances, I'd agree with you, but in this case, I think that Apple is wrong. They are stepping way over a line with this demand, to the point of being a brutal dictator.

How many companies need to fail and crypto bros need to go to jail before this entire nonsense is dead and buried?

Are you suggesting that cryptocurrency is a joke? Or am I misinterpreting your comment?
