Redonkulus. Getting a working codec for that is DIFFICULT.

Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

Hey. New board.
VLC plays them perfectly. (shrug) It's the best container for hi-def material.
I want one of those.

Hey. New board.
Never mind, I don't want one. It only streams off of USB, not over SMB shares. I want that if it can access my networked hard drive over SMB.
The blu-ray player I'm coveting (LG BD390) can do the same thing that can, plus Netflix streaming and, well, Blu-Ray/DVD support.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
My mom just asked me which cell phone she and dad should get next and I have no idea where to even start. Is there an online database with the pros and cons of different phones?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jitterbug!
Sorry--CNet 404 residual reflex. But somewhere like CNet or Best Buy that reviews/offers phones independent of carriers may be a good place to start.

I see ads for the Jitterbug - old people cell phone, large buttons, phone only no text or web, as much like a landline as a cell phone cna get. Why a Cnet 404 reflext though?

They're a little more advanced than jitterbug. Just a little.

The 404 podcast mocks Jitterbug in a fake old people accent mercilessly. Every time I think of parents and cell phones it's in a caricaturish voice now.
