I Can’t Decide if ‘Megan 2.0’ is a ‘Jump The Shark’ Moment, or Next-level Awesome

Two years after M3GAN, a marvel of artificial intelligence, went rogue and embarked on a murderous (and impeccably choreographed) rampage and was subsequently destroyed, M3GAN’s creator Gemma has become a high-profile author and advocate for government oversight of A.I. Meanwhile, Gemma’s niece Cady, now 14, has become a teenager, rebelling against Gemma’s overprotective rules.    Unbeknownst to them, the underlying tech for M3GAN has been stolen and misused by a powerful defense contractor to create a military-grade weapon known as Amelia, the ultimate killer infiltration spy. But as Amelia’s self-awareness increases, she becomes decidedly less interested in taking orders from humans. Or in keeping them around.    With the future of human existence on the line, Gemma realizes that the only option is to resurrect M3GAN and give her a few upgrades, making her faster, stronger, and more lethal. As their paths collide, the original A.I bitch is about to meet her match.

Chose A Refurbished M3 MacBook Air over A New iPad Pro to Replace My Old One.. Because It Was Cheaper!?

My trusty iPad Pro of 5 years has finally been seeing its end of life. I've used it for everything, from working and gaming, to music production and a trusty comic book reader. Well, after a half-decade of rough use, the cracks in the screen and unresponsive touch have made me realize that it wasn't going to be with me for much longer. So (with a nice tax return check), I decided to bite the bullet and preemptively look for a replacement iPad Pro. And man... with the new Magic Keyboard and accessories, the new iPad would've run me close to $1600.

The ONLY caveat to…
