I can aid in finding things if you play it. I has books

A game I own (Steam) and still haven't played. 

Emperor Uriel Septim VII in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

Captain Picard, Professor Charles Xavier...So many Star Trek and X-Men movies, games, etc. He was also in the Mel Gibson movie, Conspiracy Theory. Robin Hood: Men in Tights. Dune. Excalibur. Lifeforce. Masterminds. Safe House. A Christmas Carol.

All movies / shows I have seen Patrick Stewart in. During the Ice Bucket Challenge, I followed his lead in my robotic donation video.

Sad day, the Enteprise has lost her Captain... RIP Captain Picard and thank you.

Yeah, I can see where that would be useful, especially for VB.NET, which, while I have written many apps in the past 15 years, they're few and far between. Sometimes I have to relearn things because of changes. I remember going through that back when I wrote software at Parallax. My old code would lock up using the serial port because of multi-threading. Took me a while to figure that out. As a joke, I asked Gemini about it and it had already accounted for it based on the version of VB.NET I am using.

It always tries to steer me to C# when I ask it make a PC App. I always force it to code in VB.Net as that's what I have decades of experience in. And when the AI goes away, I want a fighting chance to make sense of what ever it's writing for me...LOL

18 months ago it would have only been able to help you with coding tasks and write functions. Now, it's starting from scratch and writing mid to large sized applications. Like I will tell it to create a complete communications protocol and just give it basic guidelines like all messages will be framed with STX/ETX characters and allow binary data using ESC. And Add a CRC16 on all messages. It does all the rest. Figures out how to pack the data. Things I would spend weeks or months designing in the past.

I apologize that I don't have much feedback without seeing it in action on the target screen. 

I have not yet tried it in the manner you're doing. The closest I have come is asking Gemini for an example of something, originally thinking it was going to show me an example found on the web, only to realize it was actually writing the code for me.

I've done it with a handful of Z80 math calculation examples as well as some Visual BASIC code that I am trying to update to modern Windows. That has worked out well for me.
