  1. I binged episodes 3-8 today, and I absolutely loved the show. I ended up really liking every main character, which is something rare in media for me. The young actors were also all excellent, especially Millie Brown as Eleven. And I'm right with the OP and loving the soundtrack. It's probably what hooked me in to the show in the first episode.
  2. I loved the first season, and really enjoyed the first two episodes of the new seasons. I'm really excited to see where they take it. I don't think this will be the case. I think Sousa will get married and the whole event will dispel the rumors that Sousa is the man Peggy marries.
  3. OtGW is fantastic. I think Greg is perfect, and I hope he never changes.
  4. It's already on my kindle just waiting to be read!
  5. Let's be newbies together.
  6. I've been using Windows 10 for a couple of days now, upgrading from Windows 8. I don't yet know if it's much of an improvement. I really don't use any Microsoft programs or services, so while the upgrades to these are nice, I'm not likely ot ever see them (Groove music is a nice improvement over Windows Media Player - why both are included is beyond me. Then again, Windows 10 has both the new Edge browser and Internet Explorer. Whatever). The performance is nice for sure, but I have a fast PC and honestly Windows 8 performed well, too. The start menu is, in my opinion, only a minor improvement. Definitely better because it's not full screen, but you can barely customize the all programs menu, which is something I've been doing since Windows XP (You can still put things in to folders, but it's so cramped, and the alphabet display is just annoying). I'm kinda hoping Stardock updates their Start8 program with some windows 10 features and compatability. I used that to make Windows 8 a happier place. (EDIT: After posting this, I went looking to see if start8 has been updated. Looks like they're making a Start10 instead. Good enough). The free upgrade does make it worth it in my opinion. I don't think I would feel that way if I had to pay. Windows 8 would have been fine enough for a while longer. I don't really have a verdict yet.
  7. New member type person here. Hi. I go by Vicious Parker online, though I try to be a nice guy and neither my first or last name is Parker. Mostly I play too many video games, but I try to sneak in some SF/F reading as much as I can. As the title implies, I just finished the Mistborn trilogy, and I loved it so, so much. It's one of the few times where I've powered through a series from start to finish without taking a break for other books. Mistborn wasn't my first Sanderson experience. Oddly enough, it was Legion. Audible was giving it away for free some time ago. I liked it well enough, I suppose, but boy am I happy to have read Mistborn. I am now looking forward to reading as much of Sanderson's work as I can. I tend to be more of a lurker than a poster, but I'll try to post whenever the mood strikes.
