Merchandise is calling Smiley "The Stranger". I'm wondering if Smiley is the apprentice and he's trying to find an apprentice to help remove his master. -

Cortosis has been around for a while in expanded canon (I recall it in Jedi Outcast but it was in it's diluted form so my lightsaber eventually cut up those ShadowTroopers ). It also showed up in KotOR. -
It's been proven several times, glasses do work as a disguise. Henry Cavill did it himself by walking around Times Square when BvS hit theaters and no one recognized him. Clark Kent also is suppose to slouch/hunch over, wear baggy clothing, speak in a different tone, un-slick backed hair. Here's another good example. Zoey Dechanel

It's rare. The ore is difficult to mine and refine. On its own, Cortosis is brittle so it's commonly weaved in with other armor materials just to strengthen it. If you threw a piece of pure Beskar and Cortosis against a concrete wall, the Beskar would shrug it off and show little to no signs of wear (maybe just a scratch). Cortosis would definitely crack, show immediate signs of wear, or even have pieces crack off. Cortosis is only useful against energy weapons. It's useless against physical attacks (hence it is weaved in with other materials). -

Compared to everything from and between Episode 1 thru 6 and even from The Old Republic-game series, the saber hilts definitely look girthier. I wouldn't consider myself a true connoisseur of lightsabers and thank god I don't collect those things... -

BTW, anyone notice how girthy these lightsabers look? Did they bring everyone to a Galaxy's Edge lightsaber build station and let them make their own lightsabers or something? My thumb is slowly turning 👎 to this. -
I think for Superman, the suit has to be form-fitted, even if they have to add in the muscle padding. We have to see some kind of smooth muscle definition, otherwise it doesn't feel right. The Bat-suits can have have the armor-look as long as it looks like it doesn't hinder his movements. Flash suits should be slender, form-fitted to reflect that Flash is a runner (the JL-Ezra Miller Flash suit was armored but it still hugged the body and didn't give off the feeling it created added drag). The Superman suits shouldn't look "baggy". We should be able to see muscles.

I'm not feelin' the suit right now. Maybe it would be better if it was more form-fitting.

Wasn't the best season finale but it kinda reflects the point of episode. Guess I also wasn't alone in hearing that tune from "Time of The Doctor", "Never tell me the rules!"-speech at the end there. Varada Sethu (who played that lady soldier in "Boom") will be the Doctor's companion next series. Millie Gibson will also be back so Ruby's part in this story isn't done yet.

FYI, the lineart you are referencing in your post is the animators lineart. They wouldn't show any warning signs since that's more for them to draw (this is back in the days where mechs were hand-drawn so you would likely see a revolt if you asked your animators to drawn warning markers. 🤭)

Beware that Youtube algorithm. You watch one video and it starts bombarding you with similar topic videos. Ki-Adi Mundi wasn't supposed to be born yet (but canonically, we don't even know how long that species lives for, it's all extended canon stuff so 🤷♂️). Exactly. They put in a reason to not involve the Jedi Council. They should have just stayed hands off on any Prequels-era characters in general. I don't even know it was him until my YT feed started spewing videos about him. -

Transition episode moving from the beginning to the middle of the story so not much happened here. -
Having a backwards compatible Switch 2 would probably make me get it sooner rather than later.

They could tell she was being more hesitant, more uncertain. Mae was likely more direct with her answers, making her less likely to want to leave. -

Ummm, she was the show runner. If she wasn’t directing or writing, she was in charge. Also they completed filming a year ago… -
It's some event going on in Guangzhou, China. Also, may I suggest Google Translate for your mobile device? It has an OCR feature.

Or you can sit farther back. Unfortunately, not all cables are created equal. There was a recent video on Hardware Unboxed/Monitors Unboxed about DP cables. I'm going to wager that the cable you were using is not equal to the cable that came in the G9's box despite being "compatible". I recall I had a similar issue way way back. -

Why are they using Mini-ports? 🤨 Screens with that much real estate and they're using Mini-ports? 🤨 Pushing THAT many pixels with a 4070... I'd say go with the G8. But the G9 will likely be a more substantial upgrade.
