Ok, time to score the "Name the Interface Game"
First up
oppelgänger, unfortunately you score a zero.
Images 1, 3, 6 and 7 were of the VGA interface, and 2, 4, 5 and 8 were of the HDMI.
I can see why you chose those, as the contrast does appear to be slightly poorer in the HDMI pictures. To be honest, the HDMI doesn't actually look quite that bad in real life- as I said, it's pretty much totally indistinguishable from VGA. So that was likely just a result of the camera being at a very slightly different angle between the two shots.

So I got a muffin from the cafe in my building when I got here. I decided I wanted to consume it with a medium warm temperature when I finally decide to consume it. But rather than walk down to the 6th floor (I'm on the 10th), I decided to warm it up using the equipment in my cube....satellite receiver boxes. Place muffin on top of running receiver(s) ----> build small insulation box out of foam ----> wait until warm. Enjoy delicious warm muffin awhile later.

I'm trying my hand at the whole "ultra slow reheating" things that is all the rage these days.....microwave is too far away. Besides, I would also have to eat the muffin within a short timeframe of microwave reheating. Who knows, I could decide right after popping it out of the micro that I might not want to eat it. Either way, it's nice and warm and waiting for me.

In the days before microwave ovens, and when AM broadcast transmitters mostly still used tubes, it was not entirely uncommon for the engineer to place his lunch inside the transmitter adjacent to the PA tubes, and allow it to bask in their radiant heat for a while in order to cook.
Place a small model of Alderaan on a pedestal next to it.
