  1. Karateka? Oregon Trail? Considering how long it's been since I've seen OS 7 (I've had to make room in head for other stuff since those days), I can't say I remember all the apps and games for Mac from those days.
  2. Netflix Pulls The Plug On ‘Luke Cage’, No Season 3 For Marvel’s Harlem Hero Heroes for Hire? Daughters of the Dragon? I think Jessica Jones is next on the chopping block.
  3. There is some speculation that Disney may revive the show on their own streaming service. Or, the characters get folded into another show (Combine Luke Cage and make Heroes for Hire).
  4. You are welcomed to read the comics online. Google "free comics" or "read comics online" and puke to your hearts content. Read back in this thread for previews...
  5. Like I said, Tennant's Doctor started this "Ginger"-gag before Smith's Doctor. Where it referenced before Tennant, well...
  6. David Tennant's Doctor started "Ginger"-comment before Matt Smith's Doctor did when he regenerated and asked if he was a Ginger. Nice opening titles. Shame they didn't keep the silhouette but then again, Jodie doesn't have the crossed eye-brows and Scottish glare of Calpadi.
  7. Netflix Knocks Out ‘Marvel’s Iron Fist’, No Season 3 For Martial Arts Series Terrible 1st season. Make-up season 2 not enough to save it. Disney could pick it up and move it to their streaming service.
  8. The UN really need some First Contact protocols. Though granted, humanity had a freakin spaceship dropped on our laps. At least no one on that said craft was alive to show us how to use it and we still hadn't left our solar system by the time someone made first contact with us... Having a freakin colony fleet just come to a planet without some investigation of the native life must have caused Windermere to leapfrog a few centuries of social development.
  9. And Intel decides to match AMD with 9th gen CPUs and Z390 boards...which are just Coffee Lake refreshes, which, as one article put it, "was already a rehash of Kaby Lake, which was an update to Skylake. So we are on Skylake Refresh Refresh Refresh". So I might as well toss the 8700k out of the picture.
  10. According to the SDCC trailer, he was on leave. Logic says shaving is irrelevant while on leave.
  11. I'm waiting for her "I am The Doctor"-moment. Seeing as the antagonist this week wasn't quite the big-threat, it might be awhile....
  12. I’m going to second that. You are much better off looking for a 1070 or a 1080 (probably on sale). A 980 or 970 would also be a better choice. Since it sounds like you are trying to save money, the RTX 2070/2080 is likely not on your radar.
  13. Option 1: Like you said, future-proofing. PS4 end-of-life is ~2021 and PS5 is expected around that time. But I would expect games by that time to need at least the PS4 Pro to run. Option 2: The budget option. Nothing wrong about this one. If you don't get that much play time anymore, do you really want to shell out for a PS4 Pro?
  14. The White-Blue theme has issues with embedding topics. Switch to the Dark theme to correct the issue.
  15. Hey hey hey. I'm sure your grandpa had questionable fashion choices by today's standards in his youth. And grandma might have been obnoxious when she was young too. JJ is a good ideas-man. After that, I can't say his productions have turned into spectacular works once they leave his head, however.
  16. All they needed was a little push... So I guess I'm now a Russian or Chinese troll who is interfering just because I was one of the 1st here to come out hating this flick (and the last one). I find this study's focus on Twitter to be short-sighted. Tweets are relatively easy to mine data, but what about forums, Facebook, Reddit, etc.. Simply, this paper has de-legitimized actual complaints from real people about the movie and I take offense to that because now these types of excuses will be used elsewhere when people disagree. Social media trolls may have exacerbated the issue to weird levels (like Kelly Marie Tran closing her Instagram account), but the dislike for this movie is legitimate.
  17. https://pcpartpicker.com/ Find your part, see the price trend graph. *Looks at Core i7 8700k*...and it's trending upward. Great. On the bright side, I started updating back in June. I just need to pull the trigger on the main parts and I'm done.
  18. Nope. Season 2 starts in January 2019. The shorts start this Thursday leading to the Season 2 premiere.
  19. I don't remember all the details since they went a different route and I dropped it. But I envisioned a scenario where Wright was affected by a Var Syndrome test as it would have tied into whole bigger narrative about Var. He would have gone nutty and dropped his payload on Carlyle since the town was en-route to his actual objective. The Aerial Knights saw him coming, determined his actual target then decided to see if this singing and Var Syndrome-mind-control link was more than just a coincidence which led to nukin' of the city, compounding to the Windermere situation, yadda yadda yadda. To me, it would have made more sense to use Wright's caring personality and flip it to him being a monster and work in the Var Syndrome into the narrative since it's been introduced. The writers threw out a bunch of ideas at the beginning but then they failed to materialize later on in the series. It isn't my story since I'm just a viewer so que sera, sera.
  20. Yeah, that bit with Wright Immelmann never made much sense with me then and still doesn't today. In my head, I had a much more plausible story but oh well.
