I'm not at all fussed with animated TV shows and much prefer 'human' characters, so I'll likely not watch it. Also, I was never too interested in the Star Wars concept; however, I have seen a couple of episodes of The Mandalorian now and don't mind it at all.

I had another fall last Friday [30.04.21] and suffered damage to my right shoulder/upper chest area.

I'm somewhat surprised that more people haven't joined the conversation here, given that so many members here are computer enthusiasts and love/enjoy/marvel at new tech. I have to wonder if all the Intel enthusiasts have quietly conceded defeat to AMD [e digicons];P[/e] ... or is it because there's not too many AMD enthusiasts here?
