  1. Past hour
  2. My sister's window AC unit has smart appliance wi-fi nonsense. She was like "I am never connecting that to the network. Is there a way to completely disable the radio without breaking the air conditioner?"
  3. Containment.
  4. Yeah, the writing could have been far better but I'm still up for seeing her in more SW movies. Get a better story arc and better writers (psst, Andor has some) and she'd be great.
  5. Oh, absolutely... and that was a cycle LucasFilm and its licensees had already gone through several times over more than twenty years before LucasFilm was acquired by Disney. That was the Star Wars Expanded Universe, where the fighting just never bloody stopped and which was on its seventh galactic government (and the fifth post-Empire one) in 21 years of realtime and about 130 years of in-story time when Disney and LucasFilm decided to pull the plug in the runup to the sequel trilogy. As I understand it, the official Happy Ending Override was Heir to the Empire in '91. Disney LucasFilm is just doing exactly what pre-Disney LucasFilm was already doing... milking the franchise until everything that made it likeable or interesting has run dry.
  6. I think they started undoing the 'happy ending' with the EU books.
  7. I don`t care anymore, SW is long gone for me, when Disney purchased the franchise. I will always have a place in my heart for the OT.
  8. I'm an idiot, ignore me. Got my wires crossed and thought we were talking about the Plamax and/or VFG kits.
  9. Today
  10. I've got problem with them having post sequels and even sequels in the first place. Star Wars in its original form was a fairytale. As we know fairytales end with "and they lived happily ever after." They vanquished the evil wizard in the original trilogy. Which should have been brought peace to the kingdom, but they undid everything to make the sequels. It is what they'll do again to make the post sequels. Nothing will end. Every final victory against the dark side in a trilogy is basically meaningless because it will all be undone for the next trilogy.
  11. What isn't a Bandai kit?
  12. There were unused ethernet jacks in the walls when I moved in. I had the 2nd bedroom (office) and living room ones wired up, so I can plug main PC and PS5 directly to the modem in the basement. They had 50% more latency on WiFi.
  13. I saw the announcement of the Lego One Piece sets (non Brickheads) and they look absolutely amazing to me. Sadly I’m almost done with collecting Lego so they are not for me but at times like these I wished Lego was more the focus of my collection.
  14. Well crap. I wish I'd known. I would have ordered two. Now it's marked discontinued at HLJ. I'll have to get a second one elsewhere.
  15. I liked it for the most part. The Sword was probably the best story of the 3. And the ending is kind of weak. I did dig that little ending cameo though. I did dig that Michael Beihn had a small role in this project now putting him right there with Bill facing down 3 of the most infamous sci-fi villains of history.
  16. You can actually go on your old switch into systems and do data transfer to switch 2.
