A 20-something man enters the bakery. He is wearing a sleek, black two-piece suit with a white button-down dress shirt and a black tie. He is wearing black sunglasses. And clown shoes.
MAN: Hello, baker.
BAKER: Hello, sir. What can I get for you today?
MAN: A pastry.
BAKER: What kind of pastry?
MAN: The kind of pastry that I WILL KILL YOU WITH.
The man then kills the baker with a pastry.
Fade to black.
INT. MAN'S BEDROOM
Fade in to shot of man sitting on his bed, looking forlornly at a pair of clown shoes. These aren't the clown shoes he was wearing before. He's still wearing those - they are in the frame. These are a different color entirely.
The man looks at the shoes and has sex with them for 2.5 minutes. Cut to black.
Why would an advanced space faring species need to assimilate with humans or take over the world to survive?
I thought it just crashed or was a random "lets go take over that planet" mission. It doesn't want to survive, it wants to take over every being on the planet. Very similar to Slither.

Yeah, it's unexplained. It is just bad. We don't have the capability to understand why and a good movie realizes that.
Wait... you are watching the 80s version right...? I forget when the new one comes out! I better watch that tonight. Get my Kurt Russel on. I am Kurt's #1 fan.
I've got 2 hours to come up with and write a script for a 3 minute long short film.
Hmmm.
Not the most original, but fun to watch:
Action horror:
Pick a monster.
We see a priest walking down a country lane yelling soneone's name, searching worriedly. The wind brushes his coat to the side and we glimpse his monster killing paraphernalia.
A young girl tops the next rise running and screaming madly. The priest runs to reach her and she dabbles unintelligibly, but we catch something about the boy, a place and the wod 'terrible'. The priest must know where it is because he begins to run.
The camera pulls zooms back into a panorama, and if we look closely we notice disconcertingly that the litlle girl seems to keep up effortlessly.
Cut to the priest slowing down in a little wood and looking around frantically. He spies some color, and dashes to find the boy, and drops to his knees. He slowly turns the boy over, already knowing he is dead.
As this happens we see the girl drift into the frame, looking a bit monstrous. Just as she begins to pounce with [appropriate weapon] extended, an axe quizzes down and crushes her skull. The priest looks back to see a grizzled man with tears streaming down his face strike strike again and simply growl, "For Nathan."
As he helps the preit to his feet the preisy grumbles, "well swung."
I mean way down the line you might- through experimentation or just really, really careless allocation- make memory hogs or intensive projects... but from where you've said you are you're unlikely to make anything meaningful that requires more powerful internals than the average system from Best Buy. Just toss some extra RAM in there for peace of mind.
This is not true for some things. For example, if you are getting into game programming you probably want a machine that supports recent shader language versions.
If you were doing flash or something that uses Eclipse as an IDE you want a pretty beasty machine because those things are fucking resource hogs extraordinaire.
Its quite easy to need a lot of RAM if you are doing any DB programming.
I love me some CV. I love the old ones, the 2d Metroid ones, the 3d ones, and the portable ones. A new CV would be the only thing that gets me to buy a 3DS.

My understanding is that he's not doing anything video based (yet, or for a while). I think he's done very basic, first year Java? Maybe dabbling in Ruby.
My point being, I guess, it sounds like budget is a concern for him and I think it'll be a long while doing what he's doing before he runs into any walls.
I run Eclipse just fine on a 2.4ghz C2D w/ 2gb of RAM, for what it's worth.
So what exactly is your budget Inqui? You are never going to get any good answers unless you make a firm decision on either
1) the specs you want
or
2) the amount you can spend

Well, yes. Course I would say the same about Ruby (at least in the context of Ruby on Rails server side development. soooo unstable)

Haha I found a work around!
Basically I'm using an external monitor to use my laptop instead of the laptop monitor currently breaking off the base. Of course this isn't exactly a good solution but it's the best I got for now.

They will probably kill you soon if you don't stop.
who says it is advanced
It has a spaceship.
Or maybe it assimilated with a space faring species.
IT MAKES SENSE NOW.
anyway, man, I don't think it really matters
there could be almost any reason for it to do those things

It's still a really good movie and it leaves me thinking. which is good.
A man struggles to make a 3 minute egg. Will he succeed?

I can dere-lick my own balls, thank you very much.
Gonna get sexy. Gonna seduce Chris Evans.
Of course, I had to pretend to work. Or something.
No! He promised me his hand in marriage!
Damn.
If I knew a bunch of you were thinking of going, I would have made more of an effort to buy tickets and go.
Well, next year I guess.

Too late. Gonna dress like J. Lo.
Gonna tap into my Puerto Rican heritage and exploit it for Evans' hot bod.
Gonna give him taco flavored kisses.
Next year I'm shooting hardcore for PAX East.
My sister (younger) has me beat at life right now. 2 jobs, full time student, living on her own and drives. I might have to off her.
