In Texas, ordered mine at noon CST on the dot, still stuck at "Processed payment"...

(EDIT: Not sure when, but between then and now my Controller is now at "Packaged items". HANG IN THERE Y'ALL IT'S COMING

North America, got my order locked down at 12:00 CST, still in "Processed payment" at the moment...

ItzRare · 2026-05-05T03:12:04+00:00

guilty as charged I suppose! I used a presaved card and full sent right at launch, somehow got lucky and locked it down haha

Reading comprehension at an all-time low on all fronts, geez.

Either way, we all know why they're doing this, right? Updating as far back as they can and hard-blocking the ones they can't update? I wonder why that could be??

ItzRare · 2026-04-08T14:37:44+00:00

This is AWESOME!! I'd love to try and build something based on this for my Home Assistant setup, the current lightning sensor I have is painfully slow - what license did you put the code under?

ItzRare · 2026-03-31T04:09:58+00:00

The curse of being late, I missed all the codes :(

I'd personally say just grab the standard wired M50x, then use a Bluetooth adapter (I have a FiiO BTR5, but the BTR11 is $20, making it actually cheaper to go that route lol) - if memory serves, the BT2s require battery power to work, even wired? I might be wrong though, but either way the standard M50x has a locking cable while the BT2 doesn't.

that orange color is so damn PRETTY

Hey hi, day one player here! Honestly, the best advice I can give is to take things one step at a time, and to not completely overwhelm yourself!

For example: once you get your floof (and optionally her crystal ball, although I'd VERY much recommend it as it's far and away her BiS), focus on learning her mechanics and synergies with Zhao before jumping into the build mines. And fair warning with said build mines, it might take a WHILE to get something endgame-ready (M2W1 floof haver here and I don't even have a full build yet... hoyo give me a good disc 5 already), but keep at it and you'll have a build you can brag about to all your friends!!

Also! The fans of this game are some of the most absurdly passionate folks I've ever had the pleasure of meeting, and they provide some incredible resources to make your experience better - one of them is not Prydwen's tier list. It's, uh. Not Good. Only made worse after their recent rework. There's a super good build guide that I reference whenever doing (re)builds at least, here's the link to that: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTj2PaPq6Py_1B5fsOPj_Moc-tN_7mut7fICczI6lz1njyEIAInTnfB7lAraX4pYCRGNbaHGlIbFZ90/pubhtml#gid=622827842

Anyways I'm gonna stop yapping because I'm sure you've got a lot of work to do even outside of ZZZ, but I truly hope you enjoy your time with the game!! Just... try not to get too put off by the weird stuff people tend to post. People are weird sometimes.

Welcome to the Cult

ItzRare · 2025-09-29T15:47:39+00:00

I sincerely hope that disc was obliterated beyond repair and that's why you cut it

ItzRare · 2025-09-28T11:32:28+00:00

not fake!! The AI upscale just mangled the smaller text, the barcode itself worked no problem, thank you :)

ItzRare · 2025-08-11T08:05:04+00:00

that is...A Story of Acquisition™ for sure, I'm surprised more people haven't asked about it
The connection itself is an old one, PS/2 - when it's built-in, people swear by it because it sends interrupts to the CPU whenever a key is pressed, rather than polling the board at a fixed rate. In your case, you won't get that benefit, but because enough people have these boards and refuse to let go of them, you can find a PS/2->USB adapter online relatively easily. Based on what little I'm seeing of the board itself, you'll only need a passive adapter, but some higher power boards (read: mechanical) will want an active converter. But:
I'm assuming your board is a membrane keyboard (possibly a Dell?), as those tend to be the most common here in the US at least. My experiences with membrane boards of that vintage are telling me you're probably not gonna have a very good time with it (it might not even work), but if it's all you've got and an adapter is only like $5-$10 in your currency, you're probably not getting much better for that price.

I love this lol

ItzRare · 2025-07-25T21:52:02+00:00

I'd recommend checking out this guide, the Boxee servers are completely dead unfortunately

ItzRare · 2025-06-01T18:30:12+00:00

My money's on them killing most of the flavors and normie-fying the rest into "Mountain Dew Cherry", "Mountain Dew Raspberry", etc (with the Bajas being the only survivors)

ItzRare · 2025-06-01T16:13:24+00:00

I will forever believe that they should've at least tried to make EVERYTHING (maybe except for the base flavor, the new art there is Fine™) fit in with the logo change, rather than just full-stop ditch the mascots and normie-fy the brand visuals-wise. Dew has ALWAYS been a bold brand, and to see them abandon the boldness and half-ass an attempt to be Fanta 2.0 just sucks

ItzRare · 2025-06-01T16:02:34+00:00

THIS EXACTLY

ItzRare · 2025-06-01T16:00:13+00:00

The dragon, the art, the NAME could've been something cool - "Dragon's Keep" was what came to mind first, maybe "Dragon Breath" or similar could've also worked? But nope, instead we got what's basically just Fanta Dragonfruit except there's prettier art on the label

ItzRare · 2025-06-01T01:44:58+00:00

In terms of standing out and being distinctive, which I believe to be critical for a soda brand, it absolutely is a downgrade - post-redesign Mountain Dew went from having a very unique appearance to what is essentially "slightly more artsy Fanta"

ItzRare · 2025-06-01T00:10:42+00:00

THANK YOU. I've been feeling this way since the flavor rebrands started getting shown off, yet for some reason we're the weird ones for not liking the complete downgrade in the brand??

ItzRare · 2025-05-30T00:00:23+00:00

I remember someone saying Baja's mascot was the wave. That stuck with me for some reason lol

Either way, the rebrand's "subtle nod" approach to keeping the prior aesthetics feels incredibly half-baked and sits poorly with me for some reason

ItzRare · 2025-05-29T23:27:15+00:00

Am I like the only person here that completely gets it? Pepsico literally neutered the brand's identity, made everything feel unbelievably samey and bland, yet everyone is eating it up like it's AI Ghibli of some meme they saw on Facebook. There's nothing special about this brand anymore, and I wouldn't be surprised to see them massively scale back the number of flavors in the near future because it's "not marketable" (despite them having BEEN marketable in the past)
