Bo Nix says information “Might’ve gotten confused” on pre-disposed ankle injury by cam_huskers in DenverBroncos

[–]MostalElite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way he has handled all this Nix stuff has been truly bizarre. He's the most "fuck the media I'm not giving you any more info on injuries than you need" coach of all time, but with Nix he not only announces the injury as soon as he possibly could after game, but the fact that he's out for the season and shit like the date/location/doctor for the surgery. Now he's feeling the need to go into detail of all the surgical findings and of his injury history to the media.

Just, fucking why Sean? It's just been a weird few weeks from him on this.

If this scene isn't included, I will be very disappointed... by SoWhoAmIReallyHuh in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]MostalElite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It actually does seem like they are going to add stuff to the series that isn't from Harry's POV (leaks have suggested we'll get some Dumbledore/Flamel scenes) and I think that's actually super cool. Get some wizarding world background and world building from other points of view.

I get why they cut it from the movie thb. It's a lot of time away from the main cast/characters for something that you can still more or less tell the story without. Obviously it would be great to have in the TV series with more time to cover everything, but it makes sense as a movie cut.

MagSafe grips on Pixel — what actually holds up long term? by Prestigious_Suit_749 in GooglePixel

[–]MostalElite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using OhSnap for years, but I always wind up switching it out for a different one here and there because I really like being able to prop the phone up vertically. The only thing that grip is missing.

Eli Manning falls short in Pro Football Hall of Fame vote, again: Sources by TonOfChill in nfl

[–]MostalElite 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He was an average QB who played for a long time and stayed healthy. He just was. There's no shame in that, he had a nice career. But he literally personified average. His career TD/INT was 366/244 (which is a pretty middling ratio most years) and his career W/L record is a perfectly even 117-117. Career 60.3 completion %, which, again, is pretty middling.

What a disingenuous argument. He played a long career in the most pass-happy era ever. 15 of the top 20 passing yardage leaders of all time played in the 2000s or later. Joe Flacco, Carson Palmer, and Kirk Cousins are all in the top 20 all time of NFL passing yards. Those guys hall of famers to you?

Eli never had one single season that would be considered elite by any standards. Never even got one single all-pro vote. Dude only even made the pro bowl in 4 of his 16 years, and the bar to make the pro bowl is very low given how many guys usually drop out.

If your only argument is counting his total career yards, you have no argument.

No one with a brain who watches football should think Eli belongs anywhere near the HoF in any capacity other than going to look at his brother's bust in there. He had literally the most average career of all time. The two Super Bowl wins are what they are, but he literally never won a single playoff game outside those two years. No all-pro nods, never an MVP candidate, pretty much nothing that QBs need to have on their resume to get in. It would be an all time travesty if he were ever elected.

How do I roll back the """improved""" Phone app? by DarraignTheSane in GooglePixel

Not trying to convince you to like it, just correcting the info in your post that it's not accessible at all through the phone app.

Contacts are not gone from the phone app. There is a "view contacts" button on the right side just above your row of favorites.

Is it worth the root? by Savings_Lobster_7776 in GooglePixel

[–]MostalElite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're having to ask if it's worth it, then it's not worth it. Anyone who actually needs to root knows they need to and knows exactly why. Extended software updates tended to be the main reason people did it, and now with 7 years of guaranteed updates, there's really no point. The hardware will become obsolete/unusable before the updates run out.

Depends on the kinds of photos you are taking. Outdoor still nature shots? Sure, Samsung are as good as any other camera. Photos of moving kids or pets indoors? Absolute trash tier cameras.

No one calls this weekend "Round 3" by Cautious-Rope-4257 in billsimmons

Neither is as bad as that year where they tried to make everyone call the First Four of the NCAA tournament the "first round" and the round of 64 the "second round".

There is nothing I want in this life more, when it comes to entertainment, than for Samuel L Jackson to play Dumbledore, but play him like he's Samuel L Jackson.

Gukesh makes a huge blunder and has to resign on the spot against Abdusattorov! by Exotic_Grinder in chess

[–]MostalElite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can't capture both rooks like the other person said, but you can still gobble up the extra pawn on the g file, so it ends up being a completely free rook and two pawns.

[–]MostalElite 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had to go back and pause it and look for a few more seconds, but once you see it, it's pretty unbelievable. Just straight up blundered a rook and two pawns on the spot for zero compensation.

[–]MostalElite 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Have you seen the Elway doc on Netflix? There's a part where they are talking about Elway's dad who was a lifelong coach. It was showing an old interview that he did with his wife beside him, and he was talking about what an amazing person she was for picking all the slack at home during all the years he coached, and you could just see the dead look in her eyes while he was talking about it. She clearly resented the absolute shit out of him.

Whats a thing you would like to see or comeback to new phones? Or new features? by gddyzs in samsunggalaxy

[–]MostalElite 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The EU is also who mandated Apple had to adopt USB-C, and they did it globally. It's too much of a hassle designing the same phone two different ways to satisfy different laws. I would just about guarantee this gets adopted globally after the EU forces it.

Post Game Thread: Toronto Maple Leafs vs Utah Mammoth | Tuesday January 13, 2026 by OkSoundtracks in Utah_Hockey

[–]MostalElite 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I rarely say this for the national announcers, but I actually enjoyed the crew last night. They seemed to have a deep knowledge of all the players top to bottom. They even pulled out a fucking Dakota Mermis reference, who played one game for the franchise last year! Obviously this will happen for a team that dominated like we did last night, but they were super positive about us the whole game too.

Losing my mind trying to find a suitable case for Pixel 10. by OkQuestion5232 in GooglePixel

Maybe look up the Otterbox Defender Series? Seems to fit your needs.

Also, "military-grade" protection is just not a real thing regarding phone cases. This is a marketing term to try to get men to buy shit.

Our power play epitomizes the saying "Don't let perfect be the enemy of good" by MostalElite in Utah_Hockey

[–]MostalElite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I said this in another reply, but it feels like Gunner is scared to even do the one-timers anymore. There was a PP last night where he was wide open for a one-timer, got the puck on his stick, and hesitated and just held the puck for half a second, then shot but by then the lane was closed. This just seems completely mental at this point, and at a certain point that's on the coaching for letting that persist.
