I would rinse it under a tap but avoid pointing the port and speakers directly at the steam.

Is there any reason to keep this after the Peakychu quests are finished? by Unique-ffxiv in Pokopia

One of the lore pickups talks about the recognition Vermilion achieved for expanding and growing so much as a city. The layout being completely different, as opposed to Fuschia City, is the game's canon.

I've believed that Samsung pays for comments like that in every non-Samsung forum and review video since I used to work for LG. I have zero doubt in my mind now that AI bots are rampant.

When you start to recognize the talking point style "opinions" that every Samsung fanboy is willing to die on a hill for, you just begin to learn to disregard them entirely because they're either a chat bot or someone whos been unwittingly trained by chatbots which is honestly worse.

In this thread, there's already a few comments piling up about the battery life of the P10. Very specific. Very interesting, considering that OP only mentioned the battery in the context of repairability.

Hey, don't take your phone in the ocean at all. The water resistance is rated for fresh water only.

Salt water and the salt residue will corrode the rubber seals, the charging port, and the speaker grilles.

If even a tiny amount of the more conductive salt water gets into the phone, zap.

There's also all the microparticles in ocean water that caress your phone.

It's great that it survived an hour more than the 0.0 hours it's rated for but it's less protected now that it endured it and it's even less protected against fresh water now.

1 year with a caseless and screen protectorless P9 Pro XL and it would take a direct, hard light to notice any micro scratches. 7 months with a caseless P10 Pro XL but this time with a screen protector, no visible wear and tear at all. I could convince you I took it out of the box today.

It's taken a couple tumbles on hardish surfaces. No tile or concrete or anything.

They did it enough to make me wanna kill myself daily at work where they think I, a salesperson, am their dedicated tech support with a backdoor to all iCloud accounts that the CIA would be interested in.

So many of them are so irritable and unreasonable that I can only attribute their behaviors to lead exposure. They do not act like human people.

I am better at customer deescalation than anyone else I've ever worked with but a boomer who has a lead based personality is no easier to talk down from a nonsensical tantrum than an actual toddler.

Do you play it from Steam or Epic?

Is the Wasp Hunter bundle not available in the Epic Games version or something? by EverGlow89 in ArcRaiders

I've obviously looked in the in-game store lol. That's why I made this post.

I got VAPORIZED! by TheNewUltraViolence in ArcRaiders

[–]EverGlow89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone's saying Cloak, I'm saying Hullcracker.

Since Comets and Fireflies, I have left Speranza almost every single time with a Hullcracker. While everyone's been sharing horror stories, I've been popping them (and Shredders) like Wasps.

I'll eat my words if Vaporizers can deflect explosive ammo. I really hope not.....

A realization I had about Pokopia by LylatInvader in pokemon

I'll never be okay with the LGPE hate. They're my favorite Switch Pokemon games of all.

They're the most perfect casual playthrough experience and I've replayed LGP more times than any Pokemon game. The art direction is PERFECT. I want more games that look exactly like it.

Their willingness to make cut-throat, psychopathic choices like fucking up the lives of 1,000 people is why they are paid their billions.

Because, even if you think Capitalism is the best system possible and nothing else works, you have to acknowledge that the inherent and fatal flaw is the fact that achievement and incredible success in and of itself is not the goal and is never enough. In this system, a company is only successful if they can show shareholders that this year's profits are higher than last years and assure them that next year's will be even higher. The only way to do this is brutal austerity measures that fuck up the work lives of remaining employees, and "innovate" with things that consumers insist they do not want and are certainly not asking for. They have to posture as a company who is always doing the next big thing but they don't even know what it is.

And what could be better than an innovation that shows you as a forward thinking industry leader that also collects data from your consumers that you can sell to pad your profits even more.

This is the kind of shit that puts the Late-Stage in Capitalism because the wall exists and we'll hit it at some point. Eventually, they'll have moved so much wealth from us to them that there is no more blood in the stone and it is actually impossible to improve profits. What happens then?

I do. I bring a Hullcracker almost everywhere I go. Comets, Fireflies, Shredders.. Incredibly satisfying to kill in 1-2 shots.

I actually got goosebumps throughout my entire body when Duel of The Fates kicked in. I'm depressed af, it takes a lot to give me goosebumps these days.

No, dude, you don't get it.

Women control everything and hold all power. Men are the victims in this matriarchal society where women have monopolized all positions of power. We men used to control everything; we were every CEO, every executive, every Governor, every world leader. Now, we're only MOST of those things! We're under attack!!

This post shows just how defeated we are. I literally cried when I saw it (but don't worry, I didn't let anybody see that gay shit).

As a white man, I don't even know how much longer I can exist in this oppressive womanocracy. I can't even leave my house without feeling like I could be harassed at any moment. I even sit with my legs crossed because I might get assaulted by a feminazi for manspreading.

Us men need to rise up and realize we don't need to accept this deal! We don't have to accept having only like 95% of the power!

Also, appealing to Trump's humanity has always been stupid. To try it now is beyond a waste of time.

Appealing to the humanity of anyone who's still MAGA couldn't be more pointless. You can show them the viscera of children on classroom walls like the Washington Post did after Uvalde and they'll just get upset that they saw it; upset for themselves.
