    The Acolyte

    Agreed, although I think I enjoyed Mando more than you did. The thing about Acolyte's preview it just seems like more of the same from Ahsoka. That is why I wasn't overly impressed. I hope it is good, though, and I would love to see them explore Sith lore and history. I think that is something, at least on screen, that hasn't been explored too much. One thing I will say is that I think they should have gone further in the past, like outside Yoda's lifetime, that way they are forced to not have legacy characters. I just have a bad feeling they will include Yoda in there somehow, and quite frankly I have had enough of Yoda.

    You know they will shoe-horn Yoda in there somewhere, if this takes off.

    I never go into a Star War hoping it sucks. I hope this is good.

    Looks OK but Star Wars has burned me to the point where I will reserve judgement until after I see it.
  5. Some other good scores, no particular order: 1. Gladiator 2. Blade Runner 3. The Godfather 4. Last of the Mohicans 5. Superman Some good soundtracks: 1. Goodfellas 2. Casino 3. Trainspotting 4. Dazed and Confused 5. Sopranos (OK, not a movie, but they chose good songs)
  6. Some of my favorites: 1. Braveheart. 2. Pulp Fiction. Quenton knows how to pick good songs. 3. Conan the Barbarian (don't drive to this, especially in rush hour with a battle axe!) 4. I also like the Star Trek soundtracks, especially Star Trek 2 and 3 5. GOTG 6. Master and Commander on the far side of the world.
  7. If bullshit could fly, Trump's Mar-A-Lago would be an airport!
  8. Nah, these days if they have an R behind their name, they are trash. The GOP is a cult at this point. Haley was just there to give the appearance of choice in the GOP, but Trump had it locked and the fix was in from day one. Biden is definitely a disappointment, especially on both Israel (we need to stop arming and enabling Netan-Yahoo) and the Border mess (I am for LEGAL immigration and immigration reform, but the border is out of control), and he's a geezer that can keel over at any minute, but he has my vote if it keeps Trump out of the Oval Office. Haley would not have changed that.
  9. Tomorrow, I go to Dresden, Germany.
  10. There is a LOT of walking and everything is cobblestone, so if he has sensitive feet like me, he needs good shoes.
  11. Hi All. Today, I got to do a small tour of Prague. Too much to see in just a few short hours of course, and these pics don't do the place justice, but I saw a castle!
  12. Personally, I shy away from referbs. I'm not to keen on HP and for the Optiplex, Dell generally has weak power supplies, making upgrading your video card a challenge. I would say just save your money up and get a rig you really want instead of compromising.
  13. No pictures yet, but I landed in Prague today!
  14. Don't forget your glow-in-the-dark stars to stick to your ceiling, kitty pictures on the wall, and your velvet Elvis painting!
  15. If the military and law enforcement have manditory retirement ages, so too should Congress, SCOTUS, and POTUS!
  16. Not a bad set up for $800.00. The only negative I see is it has DDR4 instead of DDR5 RAM, but most people won't see the difference, and maxing out at 128GB RAM is cool. Looks like the video card is way better than the one I posted.
  17. https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/28/politics/mitch-mcconnell-stepping-down-leadership-senate-gop/index.html About fucking time, but not soon enough! I wonder what psychopath republican will replace him, though. I am guessing it will be Thune.
  18. Yeah, that PC probably is more than you need, but you can certainly game on it if you needed to. It would be super fast for just day to day stuff, with the M.2 drive, and I5 Processor, alone. If all you are doing is grading papers, word processing, and web browsing, you could go with something less expensive like this one and still be decently future proof: https://www.ibuypower.com/store/rdy-element-mr-001 *ASROCK motherboards are made by ASUS, which is a good brand.
  19. If I were looking, I'd get this one. https://www.ibuypower.com/store/rdy-trace-7mp-005
  20. At my job we had a custom PC built for VR purposes, and we used: https://www.ibuypower.com/.
  21. No accounting for taste but I respectfully disagree!
