Luke, I am your father
 
Okay, so I pretty much always refer to the same friend, because I only have one. Enough of that. For some reason, we use junior high insults, taunts, or whatever on us. She tells me to have a good night. I retort "Don't tell me what to do! You are not the boss of me! I will have a good night if I want to!"

I kept teasing her about her iPhone and she kept telling me that she hated it, so she is now making payments forever on an Android, which she says she loves, but her iPhone was 64 GB and her Samsung only has eight. She keeps asking me about 64 GB microSDHC cards and I am tired of looking for her. As far as I can tell, if you find one, it is fake. I asked her why her [brand-new] phone was so old that it could not use the latest cards. She said "It's not old, you are old" and then started apologizing.

I sent her:

She just asked "What?"

I have been looking for one of those panel deals, like this:

but giving these lines:

Darth Vader: Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.
Luke Skywalker: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!
Darth Vader: No. I am your father.

I am going to try to do this. Please let me know if you can find something or do better. Thanks!

You are an interesting character sir.

I guess I'm not sure what you mean by them being fake. First google search I found this.

Samsung 64GB microSD Class 10 UHS1 Memory Card MB-MP64DABBY - Best Buy

Looks like something that would fit the microSD in my phone.

I own stock in 64 gb sd cards. I own one in my phone, tablet, surface (tablet too?), camera, chromebook, hunting camera, driving camera, etc.

niky 11-13-2014 07:10 PM

32GB. Don't feel like spending extra on 64GB because I've burned a fair few cards in my time.

And the last one took my only driving vid with a Rolls Royce with it!

-

If the card is too big, a surprising number of modern devices simply can't use it... because it's too big. We have the same issue with the V-Box we use for instrumentation... finding a memory card it likes is like scrounging around dime stores for the last 5" floppies in the Universe...

Thanks for the responses everyone!

I thought this one would be less annoying for computer users, scrolling is too much work!

I tried to use images from https://mediumlarge.wordpress.com/2014/04/, but I had difficulty finding originals without his text.

Thanks, Balto! That is the nicest thing that anyone has told me all day! :)

I do not know why she is being so demanding and why, when I tell her that I am finished looking for her, she comes back with something else and I start looking again.

She wants a 64 GB microSDHC for under thirty dollars. From my understanding, the largest microSDHCs are 32 GB, but her iPhone was sixty-four, so she wants more, although I doubt she used that much. She had ten gigabytes of songs, which is exactly 10 GB more than I have. Are .MP3s still a dollar each? She spent three thousand dollars on digital downloads?!

I have a Neil Diamond Christmas album, but not on my phone.

If you search for "microSDHC," you get microSDXC, which is the newer version. XCs can read HCs, but not visa versa, and people on Amazon and eBay sell cards which are reviewed as being fake. I saw a few discussions on Slick Deals about software to check the authenticity of cards.

Of course, if you purchase directly from a real vendor you are fine, but NewEgg does not have a single 32 GB micro SDHC.

At one point, Dad bought the latest Samsung, but he dropped it in the toilet when the new iPhone came out, and liked it much better. Some people like Prii and some people like TDIs. Others prefer Metros or CRX HFs. I do remember seeing a picture when the i6 came out comparing it to an Android that was two years old and they had the same features. I just like my slide-out keyboard. She once said that full keyboards were stupid, she used Swype, although she was terrible at it. I took her phone away and used it effectively for the first time.

Cobb, your gun has a memory card?! :)

dirtydave 11-13-2014 08:22 PM

So did you use the link I posted?

The price simply hasn't come low enough for me to get a 64gb card! I am cheap AF and REFUSE to pay more then $1/Gb.

Cobb 11-13-2014 08:49 PM

I paid almost 100 bucks for the ultra fast micro 64 gb sd card for my surface tablet. :eek: Its as fast as the internal ssd.

I had a 64 gb usb thumb drive not work on my surface tablet or epson wifi printer. It was a kingston data traveler model. I ended up using it as a readyboost drive for my win 8 pc. :thumbup:

I want to setup a "cloud" in my car with a wifi router so I can access extra stuff at work or home as my car isnt too far behind me. I know you can buy some wifi memory storage devices, but they are limited in size.

Dirty Dave,

Did you see Ninety-nine's link? Fifty dollars at Best Buy.

Show them who is boss! :)

jamesqf 11-13-2014 11:02 PM

So why exactly do you need 64 Gb in an effing phone? FWIW, I have just 120 Gb in the computer I'm using now, less than 1/3 of which is actually used - and that's including a lot of 3D seismo data files.

Xist 11-14-2014 12:19 AM

James, why do I need? This does not have anything to do with my needs. I have a 16 GB card in my phone, which is the most that it can handle. Walmart.com showed one for $16.54 and I happened to be in-store, which I try to avoid. They were asking almost twice that. I expected them to charge more and planned on ordering site-to-store, but an employee walked up, and he insisted that it was a different card. No, they both definitely said micro SDHC, although the packaging was slightly different. Then I found my baby in Fry's Electronics for $12.99.

I only bought it because of my dash cam app.

This does not have anything to do with my friend's needs, either, although that is a concept that I periodically try to explain for my own entertainment... :)

niky 11-14-2014 08:45 AM

Decent Blu-Ray rip for a hi-def smartphone is about 1.4gb per movie.

Just sayin'.

Personally, the 16GB on my phone is just about enough. I've got hours of vids I'm never going to watch, and which I really should just delete.

vskid3 11-14-2014 01:47 PM

You won't find a 64GB SDHC because SDHC only supports up to 32GB.
Have you checked to see if her phone can take micro-SDXC cards? Just because it says it takes SDHC doesn't necessarily mean it won't take SDXC. Sometimes the labeling just isn't precise. It would help if you provided us the model of the phone. "Samsung" is good enough for most people, but for questions like this there's a big difference between a Galaxy S and a Galaxy S5.

Xist 11-14-2014 02:08 PM

I thought about checking, but if she was going to give me incorrect information, I was not going to help her beyond that. It is a Galaxy S5. According to 13 Things You Can Do With The Galaxy S5 That You Can't Do With The IPhone 5S | Business Insider it can handle a 128 GB card, but I am not telling her, I should have known to double-check her information in the first place, but I already wasted too much time.

Can we get back to Star Wars? :) Have any of you heard of some three-hour edit of all six episodes? How does the Machete Cut make sense, watching II through VI out of order? What does "bring balance to the Force" mean anyway? :)

Yes, i have it downloaded on my Samsung Galaxy S5 with a 32GB SD Card.

They pretty much cut out all of episode one...it STARTS off with the duel between Quigon/obiwan/darth maul.

Then it jump cuts to episode II with obiwan and teenage anakin in the elevator scene.

Plot wise...that's a big WTF, because even though Lucas sucks at making movies, he does have a knack for storytelling. For example

We lose all of the gravity of the death of QuiGon,...now this kid is a teenager? It makes even less sense. No explanation of what Jedi's are, what Sith are, what The Force is....ALL OF THAT is cut out of the movie.

Therefore i stopped watching it after 5 minutes. Maybe i'll finish it one day.

jedi_sol 11-14-2014 02:51 PM

However, they DO add extra scenes between Padme and Anakin to build up their relationship further.

They even inserted some extra scenes that i don't recall seeing in any of the "deleted" scenes from the Bluray or old DVD releases. I wonder where they got the extra footage from?

Also interesting note, in ep II, obiwan does not go that diner to learn about Kamino Sabre darts....instead, in the "new cut," Obiwan finds out about the sabre darts in the jedi academy.

Again, where did they find this extra footage???

Cobb 11-14-2014 10:38 PM

I did it as its my experience you can get enough memory over time. Id rather buy one chip, then to keep buying another down the road. Plus for a little more you can get a faster read/write access.

My surface 2 only has like 12 gb of storage on its ssd after win 8 and office, so more storage was needed and PCs eat it up. The phone and tablet its for photos and mp3s. I dont stream and like to have enough of an assortment that I dont have to repeat songs.
