Totally agree with the controller vs keybaord + mouse thing, also depends on the game, would never play sports or racing games with mouse and keyboard, not even Tomb raider. Surprised about the bluetooth lag, never noticed any on the xbox one or ps4 controllers.
There are applications like DiskInternals Linux Reader and ext2fsd to access Linux drives on Windows.
Star Wars is probably a generational thing. The CGI and effects on the original trilogy by today's standards can be extremely jarring so they probably don't age well even though the story was better told and had a better plot. It's the same with the original Star trek TV series. Once you get closer to the 1990s produced movies and shows it is less painful to watch.
Don't know about the Star War is for kid and star trek for adults thing though. Star Wars was originally a movie and a movie that had to be cut to the last 3 episodes allegedly because of budget. Star Trek on the other hand was originally a TV Show with weeks of character and plot development. They were targeting different things and writing and plot development is much much different. Star Wars was big box office returns, Star Trek had to keep you drawn in over a longer period of time and had to last at least 14 or so episodes in the first season. If they were set in the same universe, Star Wars would be subplot within a wider story that is Star Trek. They can't really be compared. Personally prefer the Star Trek TV shows to the movies and don't think star wars works as a tv show or what they are doing with it in the past couple of movies.

im pretty sure like most PC gamers view controller vs kb/mouse as a per game basis thing and are more likely to have multiple types of inputs like wheels, joysticks etc. PC gamers are the type to want the best and probably wouldn't deliberately limit themselves. I've even personally used both the kb/mouse and controller within a single game just because certain aspects are better with one or the other, especially any fps/tps games that also have driving.

PC gaming with a controller works well for some games, but there are many PC games where Mouse/KBD are still superior. Then there are games where A steering wheel, pedals and a shifter are superior: 3 Or maybe a HOTAS.

Some games are great with keyboard and mouse while others are great on controllers. For instance sonic and Mario with controller is mind blown compared to mouse and keyboard.

Star Wars are for kids. Remember that scene with Anakin murdering little children? Yeah, kids love that. Trade negotiations, politics - yeah, kids love that.
Gordon, save us!

ETA Prime did a great video with the Freelpay CM3+ and Boxy Pixel. it is a pricey build, but pretty much a raspberry pi 3 b+ (no wifi or bt) stuffed into a GB Advance.
