Random Thought Thread

Suddenly, my laptop is working again.

I think... I'm not sure if the missed is working correctly. :/

Have I spent $30 on a shipping box for nothing?

I have the 512MB 1st gen. Makes a good home media center, I have OpenElec (preferred over OSMC) running on mine for steaming and also grabbing movies from my WD NAS. Blu-Ray quality runs as smooth as my Roku 2 but with many more file formats to stream the RasPi is much more versatile.

Snap. Got mine working as a media player. With a programmable infra-red receiver, I can use my TV remote to control it.
Works very well.
 
This is the kind of stuff I think about in the shower after about three hours of sleep:

How the hell did they come up with a name like "First Order" anyway? It sounds like a totalitarian boy band. And their leader, "Snoke"? Seriously? It's like they took random bad things and ran them through the 'Name Game': "We'll name the bad guy after Snape, but he'll look like Voldemort..." grabs nearest intern: "Quick, name something horrible!" "Uhh... OMG, gyno exam." ".... fo fanna... Kylo Ren! Good! What else?"

And then there's the terrifying "Captain Phasma" who looks and sounds like the '70s love child of David Bowie and Elton John.

I'll spare you guys any serious spoilers, but I could go on for quite a while...

SWE7 was miles better than 1, 2 & 3; those should have been left in book format. E4, 5 & 6 are still untouchable. Had the privilege of seeing A New Hope in 1977 when I was 7, not the digital add-on, the original.

I agree that it was way better than the prequels. I intend to see it again in theaters and I've already preordered the Blu Ray.

I enjoyed watching the prequels when they came out. I was 9 when The Phantom Menace came out, so I couldn't really identify good or bad writing out dialogue. Now I watch them and cringe.

"Buy our super-fancy product that is worth lots and lots of money, but we'll charge you half that.

But that's not all! We'll throw in a bunch of accessories that we'd normally charge you exorbitantly for... for FREE.

... And if you call now, we'll send you a second one, for FREE."

So... What I'm seeing is a cheap-ass POS that you are selling for a 300% markup (at least), but claim it should sell for three times that.

Yeah... I'm gonna have to pass.
