    Nobody hates Star Wars more than a Star Wars fan.

    The sequels had such a good opportunity but wasted it with over correcting.

    I really enjoyed the point in Episode 8 that Rey was unimportant, I thought it could have opened up the whole universe. Instead we had to be angry about everything and the on the nose fan service in Episode 9 went way too far the other direction.












  • As a nerdy consumer, I wouldn’t count Intel out. I remember when their Pentium 4’s ran hot and AMD started eating their lunch, then they launched the Core line up and were back on top. They get lazy when they’re not challenged.

    That being said, historically, they haven’t done very well pivoting from their main business. Their GPU line up seems kind of ok but them trying to make mobile chips went nowhere.

    Companies seem to have realized there’s real benefit to using ARM processors in laptops for the performance and battery life which is a direct threat to intel’s business.

    So it’s intel’s ability to create when pressure is applied vs their inability to create products outside of their comfort zone.

    I don’t count them out but it’s a steep climb.

    I’ve got my eye on their stock just in case this looks like it might turn into something like Apple in the 90s.
