If a tech ever looks at it even they will figure it was just a patchwork done by another tech. edit : i've never done physical cable tech. but i did do tech support for a minor cable company a long time ago and a lot of the clients were rural people in the south who had to run their own lines from the house to the box and it was very common for problems to be on those lines due to bad cable cuts or crappy splitters. ded fucked around with this message at 19:06 on Dec 18, 2015 |

I totally phoned it in at the end of this semester. Entering my senior year and just cannot find it in myself to give a gently caress about anything anymore. If a paper was due I'd poo poo out the most rambling, vaguely related stuff, do one pass for spelling errors and turn it in. Stuff like that. Still did better than almost all the teenagers.

Getting caught would require the cable company to take three seconds to do anything other than raising their rates and keeping out competition. Go for it.

Godholio posted:Apparently Rogue One is about the "many bothans" that died to get the Death Star plans. That's pretty brilliant on Disney's part. Wrong Death Star. It's about the stealing of the original Death Star (from Ep 4) plans and may or may not actually tie in to the Rebels TV show, not the stealing of the plans from Endor (Return of the Jedi)

Also did anyone else think Poe was a bit obnoxious and out of place? I know they needed a character to fill that rebel hero void and connection to the story but the actor just seemed bad all around or I guess "too Disney" Someone Make a thread can't think of a good enough pun for the title Also the Fin character is a good actor but he was literally the token comedic relief black dude and even had a super cheese Sam L Jackson one liner that escapes me right now Nostalgia4Dogges fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Dec 18, 2015 |

I hope these movies don't end up consuming like four years of Oscar Isaac's career. Dude is an absolutely terrific actor. He killed in Ex Machina and Show Me A Hero.

Rad Lieutenant posted:Someone post the giant weasel that Han hosed in that one EU novel. This isn't even an exaggeration. It was like a humanoid weasel or an alien with weaselish features. It was a giant sentient weasel. Also Chewie got killed when some BDSM aliens dropped a moon on him. Killing the EU was the best part of the Disney acquisition.

I honestly don't know what in the gently caress some of you people are smoking after reading this poo poo. The movie was pretty much exactly what it not only should have been, but the only real thing it could have been. After so much time between movies, and especially keeping in mind 1-3, the best possible thing to do was create a blend of the familiar with the stark echoes of Episode 4 and contrast that with something new. You reestablish the series for old fans, introduce it to new fans, and lay the foundation for continuing on in new directions while still remaining faithful to the soul of what Star Wars is. /tviv

Welp the cable won't come off the tap and the cable connector and tap connector are turning as one, so comcast is going to have to come fix this poo poo themselves. I put a brick under the splice to keep it off the damp ground to stop it from getting any worse.

"Well sir, we haven't determined whether your burns were in fact caused by a lightsaber, or were caused by your AT-AT collapsing and burning. Given the Kuat Land Systems is claiming that the walker could only spontaneously combust due to operator error, we're going to have to wait until the determination is complete."

Wedge Antilles is the real hero of the Star Wars 1 of 3 survivors of the first Death Star run Fought on Hoth 1 of 2 survivors of the second Death Star Run. Has half a death star, a Super Star Destroyer, several Star Destroyers, and a few SQUADRONS worth of TIE fighters on his cockpit I would watch the gently caress out of a movie about Rogue Squadron.
