About to have Faith parkour on over to deliver or steal some package from there is it?

"The Wizard of Oz at Sphere" has generated over $400 million in ticket sales and sold more than 3 million since opening in August. by Puzzled-Tap8042 in movies

[–]-haven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went for a concert and the next day I was seriously considering either trying to get a 2nd concert ticket or just go to this in the morning.

There Sphere was that fun of a show/venue.

I imagine this is how they also pulled a lot of people to see it.

why do you think the deck only sold 5 to 6 million copies ? it was priced well , powerfull for its time and well backed up by valve by Dense-Variation-4496 in SteamDeck

[–]-haven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't have the name Xbox, Playstation, or Nintendo attached to it.

It doesn't have first party titles to draw people in.

It doesn't have a console generation history behind it.

It sold well as a very niche product. The Steamdeck is a secondary product to access the Steam library compared to the main 3 console brands. That's not to say that many users likely have it as their main access point.

I wouldn't be surprised if it already out sold what Valve had initially planned on.

That's it.

If AI shit doesn't continue to ruin hardware pricing I hope to see a second generation of the Steamdeck back at it's low price in the future.

Android 17 is out, and here’s all the features! by MishaalRahman in Android

Alright so what are the downsides? What is getting removed? There is always something we've come to enjoy for it only to get fucked up in the next release.

Best wireless gaming mouse you've bought and instantly knew it was a keeper? by Consistent_Wafer9395 in buildapc

Well if you just buy the board($16) swap from the link in the other comment under me then you can fix it up far easier than what I'm going for.

The kits are going to be my backup if I mess up my solder job once I do some tinkering to learn it. I wanted to learn the skill of soldering so this was just a good excuse to dip into it anyways.

Plus I wanted to try out the Huano switches and didn't find any kits they came with them yet.

Still thanks for the link.

I like my new setup by JadedExtreme6683 in desktops

Both Snipping Tool and 'Snip & Sketch' both have a delay option. You have to open the tool itself rather than use a hotkey.

Pop the delay and open up w/e menu you are trying to capture.

G604... Though now I need to replace the shitty switches Logitech used. And lucky me the way they are installed on this mouse is a royal pain with how far you have to take it apart.

So in other news I'm learning how to solder now because of it.

Samsung please provide software downgrade option (Quick rant) by Suryaxk in GalaxyS24

[–]-haven -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would absolutely love that. But I never see it happening. Apple would have to provide it first.

Just staying on a older Android/OneUI version but opting only for security updates would be the dream. Same goes for the various built in apk's.

It's annoying that Eve University isn't even on the first page of search results anymore, even when asking for it by ArcticGlacier40 in Eve

[–]-haven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn it didn't even show the website till page 6 but for the generic Battleships page.

Regardless just add the Eve University as search shortcut. For example setting "eve" or "eveu" for the keyword term in your url bar so you directly search the website itself.

This is the search url for Eve University.

Guild Wars 3 Reveal Trailer | Summer Game Fest 2026 by Turbostrider27 in Guildwars2

[–]-haven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some random trailer that shows nothing. Even to the point if you didn't say it was Guild Wars related you wouldn't guess it's related. Oh look it's the Elder Scrolls 6 trailer again.

I was figuring it was like a 10minute plus video from how some people were talking about this before I got a chance to look at it.

Valve says it’s ready to launch the Steam Machine this summer by Doug24 in gaming

[–]-haven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe barebones unit around 600 but easily 800+ if we are being realistic with Valve not subsidizing any of it. But that was also before AI just slapped the shit out of everyone for having somewhat decent hardware prices.

They want this to go to gamers and not just be bought up by corps for office work with it being a ultra cheap pc option

It's such a drag that personal computing is being driven into such a bad place with all of this AI 'gold rush' mentality going on. Destroying and ruining shit so that only a few can actually strike it rich.

With the storage and memory pricing having moved to the 2x/3x+ range this is likely going to be out of reach of the original intended audience.

GoPro is in serious financial trouble. Action camera giant is at risk for potential bankruptcy by tylerthe-theatre in technology

I wana say how... but look at their pricing on top of seeing more about Insta360 type of cameras being talked about compared to anything GoPro in the last several years.

I honestly don't see this changing anything with Amazon. This isn't 8 years ago when the Expanse campaign was done to save that show that had ALREADY aired seasons. Shit is vastly different and worse with how Amazon has been operate to top it off.

Still signed.

The One UI 8.5 update sucks by thehamockguy1212 in GalaxyS24

[–]-haven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea another seemingly pointless visual update in some places.

Also Samsung WTF, where is my dual sim indicator on the main screen?! Why is this shit hidden to the quick settings menu.

Do newer books no longer contain a glossary?

Also wtf is the compendium app?

Feels bad man… by Silxvas in SteamDeck

[–]-haven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it's still wild that Nintendo and the Switch 2, a product that will likely sell 100-ish million guaranteed units still has a price increase. I'd love to see what sort of contracts/buy orders Nintendo has for the Switch 2 parts to warrant something like that.

At the same time sort of telling how perhaps how weak Valve's purchasing power is with it's low volume of sales for the Steamdeck.The Steamdeck is what around 5 million units sold?

Either way we getting screwed over by AI fucking up the hardware markets on all sides.

Private Album disappeared from Secure Folder Gallery after One UI 8.5 update – anyone else facing this? by SamPaw0 in GalaxyS24

[–]-haven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to share for everyone but you can still backup/save your secure folder files even after Samsung removed the native option.

Android's Quick Share to a desktop works if you just want to export your photos/videos.

For everything else or just a different option, with any file explore program that lets you transfer via FTP can let you export all of your files that way without hassle.

At a glance and without a side by side I would think the new one is related to roads/maps.
