THIRD< they are doing a HAN SOLO series spinoff where you the 15 dollar a ticket movie going audience will most likely spend at least 3x times to see who REALLY shoots first when greed and han solo have a shoot out when they were in HIGH SCOOL!!! tweeeee

also they're going to need a lot more Wookie suits, good thing digital fur is a real thing so that will keep production budgets down.

FIFTH, the movies will be done to a quality level beyond what is even possibly imaginable, so there won't be a reason to remaster the films in 20 years, meaning your kids won't grow up watching the original mickey mouse star wars movies for them to get dumb ideas about de-making the films when they re-re-re-rerelease them so there won't be any lulz because they won't be able to de-make them with their robot arms and stuff (I DIDNT ASK FOR THIS...movie to be so good!!!!!!)

SEVENTH,

there is always some nerd scandal for every star wars film that seems to BLOW UP ONLINE and your nerd friends who think they are cool because they have like 40 followers on twitter will be like "AMG DID YOU SEE EVERYBODY COMPLAIN ABOUT THE NEW STAR WARS FILM THEY blow ball ball balls blah luba hehe;;" and it will not affect ticket sales one bit, every star wars film is going to gross at least A BILLION DOLLLARS in the box office alone and mickey mouse stock will go up as long as ESPN gets league of legends so there.

but the nerd tears

i wanna believe the drive is so boring wherever that is that they setup blinking lights to help keep drivers from snoozing off into a cactus-sullied gulley!!

aim the wheel towards the strobing thinger and keep going until you hit the next horizon-visible checkmark

eisenhower was old and insane when he built an empire of concrete on the back of war torn dreams, so I don't think it too crazy to expect some weird anachronistic evidence-free assumptions still live in the land of artificially cheap energy

pretty much every hard drive & SSD manufacturer has been doing that for ages and it's always been dumb as gently caress.

not really all that surprising that Apple actually made the OS report drive sizes that way, though. "Why does my $4999 MackBook Pro with a huge 128GB SSD and gorgeous 7" 1024x768 LCD say it only has a 125GB drive?"

and LMAO at the Linux tards that actually unironically refer to them as mebibytes and gibibytes and poo poo.
