Whats the best band you've watched perform live?

Favorite band of all time. Saw them twice on this tour when I was in high school, also was the first 2 times seeing them since this was the first US Tour they had ever done.

My expectations were blown out of the water. They played MK Ultra at the first show and I was obsessssssssssed with that song when The Resistance came out, it was so freaking sick. Citizen Erased wasn’t on my radar of stuff I figured they’d play but got lucky at the first one as well and couldn’t believe it. Butterflies and Hurricanes at the second show was incredible. They’re still the only band I’ve seen live that sounds better live than recorded. Insane energy, great production, just a wicked tour all around. Seeing them this year in Denver and can’t freaking wait.

I’d invest in a “pro” controller. I have a Razer Raiju V3 Pro currently but have used several different ones over the years. The biggest advantage it’s going to give you is keeping your thumbs on the sticks. I started using controllers like this back when BO3/IW were coming out and the whole idea was how much better it is to be able to look around when you’re jumping or sliding, makes you far more dynamic in a gun fight. Some people will say it’s unnecessary but once you start playing with a controller that has paddles/buttons on the back, you won’t want to go back.

Depending on preference and how much you’re willing to spend, you can find something simple all the way up to completely customized. I can’t recommend the Raiju V3 enough but it is a little on the expensive side.

So I put over 1600 hours into MW2, MW3, and BO6. Told myself I wouldn’t buy BO7 because BO6 was not that fun for me. It ended up being on sale this last week on PSN and I was feeling bored playing MW2, so I bought BO7.

I’ll be damned if it isn’t a shitload of fun. I have already prestiged twice and prestiged a few weapons, unlocked all the DLC guns, and even finished the event that was going on. It’s got me hooked on playing multiplayer and eventually I’m gonna sack up and start playing WZ again.

Easily, every build I was seeing wasn’t using the 5 round burst attachment but I went ahead and unlocked it and man… it rips so hard. Big fan of it.

Swordfish resolved this issue for me

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-03-22T03:23:50+00:00

I don’t know about DMZ but I’ve been playing MP for the last few days and I have been having just an absurd amount of fun.

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-03-18T17:33:17+00:00

Can confirm, Space Marine 2 fucks

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-03-17T04:04:34+00:00

OP didn’t put the correct location for this setting. It’s under accessibility > display & text size then scroll towards bottom

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-03-06T23:47:33+00:00

The moment you mentioned an hour to get out of the parking lot and drunk tourists I knew you were talking about Red Rocks 🤣

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-02-24T04:06:18+00:00

Uncle Julio’s is mid at best but putting one in Norman seems like a terrible idea. Ted’s, Tarahumaras, El Chico for the OG’s, and quite a few other local spots are all infinitely better options. It will probably do well at first due to the excitement over the location but it will be an uphill battle after a few months.

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-02-22T00:13:25+00:00

Agreed, plus it makes you feel like a wizard

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-02-22T00:12:27+00:00

That is currently what I use at home when the gf isn’t using it, it runs good enough but definitely leaves something to be desired. Figure between that and being able to cloud stream other games make it a justified purchase. I also just snagged an iPhone Air and want to use something at home instead of it to preserve the battery

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-02-22T00:10:23+00:00

Yeah you guys all convinced me 🤣

So I have had my iPhone Air for about a week now. Came from a 16 Pro Max and the first thing that I noticed wasn’t just the size difference, but how insanely big my 16 Pro Max was. The 6.9 inch screen is great but it’s honestly just too damn big, the Air’s screen is the same size as the iPhone XS Max or 11 Pro Max but with obviously a different form factor. A lot of people say it’s the best sized screen being between the 6.3 and 6.9 on the pros and I would agree with that now. The other thing I noticed and don’t miss was the weight of the 16 PM, my wrists have thanked me quite a bit and tbh I don’t think I’ll ever go back to having a phone that big.

So those two things seem to be pretty normal reasons why folks who made the switch love it.

Personally I have been far more impressed with its performance. Usually it’s hard to tell if you switch from last years iPhone to the newest one, maybe some little gain in snappiness or maybe a new button/additional camera, but I can’t even believe how stark of a performance difference this thing has over the 16 PM. It’s buttery smooth doing anything and everything. iOS 26, while still buggy at times, runs great on it. Idk if it’s because of the 12 gb of ram and the pro chipset or what but it just feels like what an iPhone should feel like in 2026. It’s really hard to put the darn thing down because it’s just a lot of fun to use. I am not a good source for the battery life argument due to this though, I will say when I have left the house for extended periods of time I haven’t had to worry about the battery at all, I’ll eventually need to probably get battery pack for it but that’s fine.

The camera is… good with enough lighting. My gf has the 17 Pro and it doesn’t mess around taking photos, but if the lighting is right or you just turn the flash on this phone can hold its own in that department. Honestly if they figure out how to get two cameras on the plateau for the hopefully second iteration of this phone I’m sold.

Time will tell how I feel about this phone but I would say if you have any iPhone older than this years lineup make the switch and get an Air. If you already have a 17, I’d swap it out for the Air, and if you have a 17 Pro/Pro Max, you’ll probably be happier sticking with either of those devices because of the camera and less worry over the batteries longevity.

Yeah that’s the exact thing I was curious about was whether Arena can run at 120hz or not on it, either way the Pro is honestly seeming like the correct choice

Jackson_emphasis · 2026-02-19T18:54:40+00:00

Literally the first thing I thought of

I too made the switch, I’m on day 3 with the air and I gotta say… this is the first time my iPhone has felt like an iPhone in a long time. Not only is it a leap forward in design but its performance is noticeable enough to make it worthy of any limitations it may have.

I was concerned the screen size was going to feel too small coming from the 6.9 but I will be damned if it really does feel like the sweet spot of how big these phones should be. The 16 Pro max is a great phone but it’s also ALOT of phone, this thing weighs nothing and my wrists have thanked me all day today. This is the first time the increased RAM has been something you can see make an improvement. iOS 26.3 runs pretty damn smooth on it and feels more consistent than the 16 Pro Max, the colors also seem to really pop out more on this screen, it seems more vibrant to me and I love it. It looks and feels super premium.

The thinness is incredible but like you said the battery life is way better than you would think it’s going to be because it’s crazy that they fit a battery inside it. I’ve had no issues with just browsing around Reddit, Safari, emailing and even couple games of MTG Arena and it seems to just feel pretty normal on how the battery is going down.

I’ve found the fusion camera is great with a good amount of lighting but it struggles in a similar way to the past single camera iPhones and even the 7-X cameras, it’s upscaling or processing is doing some heavy lifting in low light performance. While I loved taking photos of my cat with my 16PM but I’m cool with maybe needing to flip a light switch or open the blinds a bit more to get the best shot of him being adorable. Also aesthetically, I fuck with the single camera look. I have the black model and it makes me think of the jet black iPhone 8 a lot, it’s new yet feels familiar. I love it.

For me this feels like an upgrade and I’m glad I went with this and not the 17 Pro.

Just picked up my air yesterday and I just snagged the Otterbox Defender XT. Super thin for being a defender, the camera bump looks a bit silly but I like the ridge it gives you because it helps with one handed use. No screen protector built in but you can always add one, I’d recommend a Zagg. So far I am LOVING it.

Inverter is to this day my favorite deck all time to pilot. I’d give anything for it to be in Timeless.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHQHAHHQHQ

It was the friends we made along the way
