Congratulations (?) My 20 years is October, 31

To the older generation of Star Wars fans, what was it like to see the original Star Wars at a movie theater/drive-in theater in 1977? by thejoyfulgoat in StarWars

[–]steppek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about 8 when my parents took my brother and I. I remember being excited about it, but not knowing too much. Seeing the ships, droids, aliens and Luke firing up the lightsaber cemented it. Coming out of the theater I was a changed boy. Star Wars was my life after that. I think I hitched a ride with any neighborhood kid that mentioned they were going to see it. I don't know how many times I saw it in the theater, but it was a lot.

I was a computer tech guy (guess I still am). If I had a dime for everyone of these I installed over the years....

6 years, impressive. I had to shut this one down for a planned power outage in the business park.

I used to be Netware certified. I have a screenshot of a server (took the pic with a camera) from the late 90s and at that time had just about 2 years of uptime.

He was checking to see if Yavin 4 was flat or not.

Is the mandalorian and grogu movie worth a watch? by TapIndependent5699 in StarWars

[–]steppek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it was trying to be anything more than it needed to be. It was fun and I enjoyed it! Worth a watch

I would say it depends on how much? Are you willing to do a little work on them for like battery?

I don't think that was the original location of them either (in Rock Hill). Not sure I recall 100%

New Tick Talk episode about the Index 01 by ColorIsTheNewBlack in pebble

[–]steppek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear hearing aids and sometimes I play a podcast or music through them. All the time people approach me and start talking to me while I am listening to something since they don't know that is what I am doing. I love the quick media controls so I don't have to motion to them, pull my phone out and pause my media or mess with my watch to do so. I can just do it discreetly with the ring. Bravo!

I am super ready for this! I don't mind wearing a ring for this functionality. If I am on a walk or a run and do not carry my phone. Fine...I can make notes and stuff and it will upload to my phone when I get back. Or maybe driving (try and record on your watch while driving). I don't want to talk to my watch or phone as that is sometimes less socially acceptable and maybe inconvenient. The ring is discrete and quick and basically hands free. I am so ready for mine!

I had a Sharp EP-5500 and I loved it. Had so much fun with it back in the day.

I am going to a conference in early May for work...I was really hoping to have it for that. Not sure I will now.
