The first season of the Fallout TV show may have only just been released, but that hasn’t stopped the creators from teasing season 2. When asked about what viewers can expect if they return to the wasteland, Jonathan Nolan and Graham Wagner had some interesting reveals.
Apple TV’s Constellation season 1 left us with more quantum entanglements than answers
27.03.2024 - 12:02 / polygon.com
Constellation mixes the horrors of space with quantum entanglements on Earth, which is all to say: It gets complicated. After surviving an International Space Station disaster, astronaut Jo Ericsson’s (Noomi Rapace) struggles to comprehend the “hallucinations” bleeding into the faux-normalcy of her domestic world. Which is also to say: It’s a wormhole of complications.
[Ed. note: Spoilers ahead for Constellation.]
As we see in Constellation’s first season, both Jo and her daughter Alice undergo the existential realization that our Jo (the surviving one we spend the majority of time with) swapped realities with Other Jo, Alice’s real mother who was killed aboard the ISS. Like a ghost of this world, Jo is in a state of emotional liminality, feeling disassociated from her new reality and this Alice. Meanwhile, Alice begins to understand that her mother is “there and not there,” both literally and mentally, in child terms. The irony is, the closer that Jo and Alice(s) perceive the liminal boundary between their worlds, the more they are able to move on and survive in their respective worlds.
Having no clear pathway back home (thanks, Bud), Jo bittersweetly resigns to building a life with an unfamiliar Alice and Magnus (James D’Arcy). The bitter part is that she and this Alice understand they must play along with the pretense for some peace, or else incur additional wrath of the meddling space program. The sweet part, at least, is that Jo and this unfamiliar Alice realize they can adopt their own mummy-and-daughter bond, despite being from different places, while Jo’s own Alice takes comfort in her mama being alive somewhere else. Presumably, this new dynamic opens the opportunity for the main Jo and Alice to engage with and love — rather than be confused by — the personality deviations of their loved ones’ alter egos. For Jo to accept a life of “there and not there” is better than “not there” at all.
Still, Jo’s acceptance doesn’t erase the loose threads of her world(s). And there’s a lot that threatens the peace she’s learning to find with Alice.
Whenever they influence the other’s consciousness, be it willingly or unwittingly, the two Calderas (Jonathan Banks) act as each other’s malicious doppelganger. As we know by the end of the season, Bud was the one who fixed Apollo 18, but the mysterious reality switcheroo saddled him with a discredited reputation while Henry got the fame and a clean(er) conscience.
Once Bud discovers that he can influence the Other Caldera through willpower, Bud is happy to haunt Henry, who unintentionally stole his rightful life, his Nobel Prize, and the universe where his heroism saved Apollo 18. It’s somewhat understandable — though asshole-ish — that when Bud is swapped

Apple Executives Defend Company’s MacBook Lineup With 8GB Unified RAM, Says This Configuration Is ‘Suitable’ For Many Tasks
The new 13-inch, 15-inch M3 MacBook Air and the base M3 MacBook Pro all have 8GB unified RAM for the base configuration. Where Apple’s competitors have started outfitting their premium notebooks with 16GB RAM as standard, the company has taken a backseat when it comes to upping the total memory count. According to the latest interview, Apple executives have defended the technology giant’s decision by stating that this amount of unified RAM is ‘suitable’ for various tasks. Obviously, these individuals have ignored the significant number of drawbacks that come with these limitations, which we have discussed below.

The Fallout TV show's Season 1 is now available to stream
Amazon and Bethesda's Fallout TV show is now available to stream over Amazon's Prime subscription service. Picture it: the post-apocalyptic America of Fallout, radroaches and stimpacks and all, except that this being a TV adaptation, the first hour doesn't consist entirely of trying to persuade Bethesda's face editor not to make you look like your character's soul has been sucked out. Instead, you you can kick back with a can of Nuka Cola and watch flesh-and-blood stars Ella Purnell, Walton Goggins and Aaron Moten rove the wasteland. I caught the first couple of episodes last week, and while I find the show's aesthetics off-putting - it's kind of a Fallout themepark, rather than a convincing world - I do think there's the makings of a fun tale here.
