Star Trek turns 60 next year, and the franchise is preparing to celebrate in style, especially with a brand new show on the way in Starfleet Academy. But outside of streaming, you’ll be able to celebrate in style with Nacelle’s new line of Star Trek action figures, which will dedicate a whole wave to the original series next year—and io9 has your first up-close look at one of them.

Thanks to San Diego Comic-Con, we know quite a bit more about Star Trek‘s next new series, Starfleet Academy. We got a teaser trailer and character details—and the show’s cast and creators took to the Hall H stage to share even more hints about what’s to come. Though Paul Giamatti—who portrays the show’s “half-Klingon, half-Tellerite” villain, a blend clarified by executive producer and co-showrunner Alex Kurtzman—was not in attendance, Holly Hunter, who plays Academy chancellor Captain Nahla A

Where are vacation homes located in the US?

news.ycombinator.com Brian Potter 2026-02-06 14:00:32

As of 2023, the US has around 142.3 million housing units: roughly one home for every 2.4 people in the country. The vast majority of these homes – 127.5 million – are occupied. The remaining 14.8 million homes are vacant. Of these, around 4.8 million homes, or around 3.5% of the total, are vacant because they’re seasonal, or vacation, homes. I’ve spent a lot of time writing about patterns of housing and home construction in the US, but virtually none of it has been looking at vacation homes sp

Almost three years ago, Wrath of Khan director Nicholas Meyer shocked the Star Trek universe when he announced that he would be returning to one of Trek‘s most iconic villains in Star Trek: Khan, a scripted podcast revealing the secret life of Khan Noonien Singh.

Star Trek faces an uncertain future at the moment, as shows that helped define its streaming renaissance end one by one, and little is known about what lies on the horizon (especially thanks to current events in our own world). So it’s perhaps fitting, then, that the one new show we do know is coming is all about welcoming a new generation back to Star Trek‘s fundamental ideals after a similar period of uncertainty: Starfleet Academy.

When new employees start at Weta Workshop, they’re herded into a meeting room with a long, unassuming conference table. On the walls, behind panes of glass and in between statues, swords, and masks, are five Oscars. Four of them were awarded to the studio for its efforts on Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings films. New hires are offered a chance to hold one of those Oscars, but there’s a catch: handling the golden statuette marks you with a curse, preventing you from ever winning one yourself

Sluggish airline internet might become a thing of the past. For the last 20 years, airline internet has been notoriously unreliable, but Starlink is changing the game with significantly faster speeds. In fact, the latest reports show it's already twice as fast as its in-flight competitors. Starlink-equipped planes achieve superior internet speeds due to its fleet of almost 8,000 low-Earth orbit satellites, which operate much closer to Earth than the geostationary satellites used by competitors

Stark Future provided flights from Albany, New York, to Barcelona, Spain, and accommodation so Ars could ride the Varg EX. Ars does not accept paid editorial content. The sport of off-roading suffers from a fundamental discordance: The desire to get out into nature and the irreparable harm inherent in the process of off-roading. That harm comes not only from damage to the land itself, but from an environment polluted with both fumes and noise. Off-roading in an EV isn't exactly a panacea, but
