I think it is because it is a USB A cable. I was all in to purchase this when I saw the headline, then when I read it was USB A, I remembered something about different charging capacities between USB A and USB C.
The first Google result for “usb a vs usb c charging capability” gives:

Agreed. It was really nice to feel a bit of connection to OT/PT characters and fill in some interesting story bits the way that Rogue One did as well (in my opinion, of course).

I don’t think I need to another season of Kenobi, though, unless it is some compelling story that keeps Obi-Wan away from both the Skywalkers…

I worked in a small, local theater in high school. Sometimes the left over popcorn would be left in the machine for the next day. I don’t think we ever left it for longer than that, but I am sure it does happen.

For the “action-hero,” Charlize Theron was the first name that came to my mind while I read the article—not that my opinion is worth much. Of those in your list, I would think of Theron and Sigourney Weaver as “action hero-types,” maybe along with Jodie Foster.

(I realized a bit later that your list was for the 3 time…

Did anything ever happen with the “brain aliens” that had taken over some Starfleet officers in TNG? I think they looked like giant beetle-type creatures. I think Picard and Riker had to use two phasers on the highest settings to affect them, and there was this mysterious radio signal that it had sent out. I don’t…

Much like the final messages of “The Good Place”. I feel like I need shows like these so much right now...”do your best to put good into the world”.

So perhaps Lucas is praying Disney does not alter the deal any further?

Sigh...so true. It is pretty red on this side of the river, with many of the same problems.

This should be the go-to response to so much crap on the internet! Thank you—I will certainly be using it myself.

I think part of what we are finding out is that autism is a broad spectrum that affects many, many, people—not just the mentally impaired. I think in the past, some of those on the spectrum were incorrectly considered an “odd duck” or “peculiar”. The prevailing theory isn’t that we now have the technology to keep…

I think you what you are saying is correct—we shouldn’t care about the fact that people have brains who work differently than ours do. (I’m not implying your brain works like mine, either, I am using a generalized “we”.)

But for this to happen, we really need to educate people about these differences (not in a…

Completely agree. I don’t invest in individual companies, however, just due to volatility. I haven’t looked at it much at all, but perhaps another option would be to divest from fossil fuel companies. Here is some info if you are curious:

I think surveys show that most people are in favor of requiring solar panels on new construction. Of course, I am sure some of those surveyed probably already have homes that didn’t have to add solar panels.

I don’t think you really know what you are talking about here. It sounds like you are repeating soundbites. At least you didn’t say that windmills cause cancer...

I was about to post a similar idea, except that I think Republicans chose nuclear because there will be a long, protracted time frame for building nuclear powerplants. This allows:

1) current big oil and natural gas policies to continue as-is for the foreseeable future,

I’d be fine with any of that. I loved her performances for so many reasons, in addition to how beautiful she was (I’m pushing 50 now myself, so I’d consider her age relative).

I would think any Farscape actors would probably be cameos.

I enjoyed that show so much!

Seeing Virginia Hey in blue again would be just wonderful...

There are investment questions for sure (did you invest the money in a riskier fund, if you are in an emergency is the economy in an emergency so your investments are down, etc). But I am fairly certain that you can withdraw any contributions you have made because they are post-tax. (A couple of google searches seems…

Millennials are considered to be from 1981 to 1996. Dylan could have been born in 1983 or around there (so 25 in 2008). Economy was rough in 2008 but also for a few years after that (jobs didn’t hit 2008 levels until 2014), and then US economy didn’t crash hard, but a lot of people obviously lost jobs and had…

Don’t they just declare bankruptcy? I mean, this isn’t something important like student or medical bills*, so it should be easy to discharge and then go hit the Fox/OAN/QAnon tour network, ghost write a book in a few years, and retire to the good life…
