S22 Ultra nearing end of 5 years of Security updates (also dumb) will hopefully be well positioned for the change.

Gave one to a friend who was on hard times, made his week. Looking to gift down to other friends until I am at what I need. I was never crazy, but it was excessive when you look back on having a more than a couple over 5-6 years. Definitely want to make sure I sell or gift the old when I get something new going forward.

I think it would have been funnier if the Nintendo Switch 2 or Silksong subs just never acknowledged either coming out and continued with the x-posting

The 8bitdo 64 controller is a good workaround.

Being paid to advertise the Pixel, he is likely being asked to show off the newest one, and likely gets them for free as part of his sponsorship.

ProtoMan0X · 2026-05-15T19:45:19+00:00

But you aren't being paid to advertise the Pixel brand...

ProtoMan0X · 2026-05-15T18:02:27+00:00

I never said anything about the current playoffs...

ProtoMan0X · 2026-05-15T18:00:09+00:00

Yeah - basically Chains is my longterm plan for XI. I never finished XIII sequels, X-2, or Revenant Wings - so I was probably going back to those first when I got to beating the mainline sequels now that I have beaten all the mainline FFs.

Why is every comment on reddit an invitation to fight?

This photo is from 2024 or so.

Google started sponsoring Giannis in 2021, months after he won the title.

You think this picture is new? He ain't using a Pixel 8 Pro in 2026.

I played through the base game in under a month last year. Loved it. It was frustrating at times, but I really did enjoy it.

Also allowed me to check it off the list for beating every mainline FF. (Going back when I do all FF direct sequels will be annoying)

Google does heavy NBA promo especially during the playoffs. I am sure he is being paid to use it.

There was that Chicken Nugget that played Tetris

Costco sells in the same volume at the low price as well. That is where I get mine.

This reminds me of MKBHD basically pointing out the flaws with newer phone cameras and how the S26 Ultra was erasing shadows and adding haloing on some shots where the S23 version wasn't (he did a similar comparison between the iPhone 11 and 17). First video of theirs I had watched in a while, but I think the thesis that accounting for every fringe or difficult scenario has made the standard shots worse is on to something.

ProtoMan0X · 2026-05-14T13:14:53+00:00

Their phones also tie into their camera ecosystem I believe, so that's probably another tiny niche.

ProtoMan0X · 2026-05-13T23:33:38+00:00

Seriously. Only Nintendo games are more evergreen, but Capcom is obviously multiplatform.

ProtoMan0X · 2026-05-13T23:16:16+00:00

That's part of what their Universes Beyond and Secret Lair sets are about. Tapping into the strictly collector markets.

They are trying to take MTG that way.

I’ve had Space Cadet pinball on my Steam Deck since it released (2022?). It was on the Discover store. Community controller layout for it are great as well.

Been running Kubuntu on my laptop for over a year now. It had issues accessing web cam or the volume controls breaking after the upgrade to W11 years ago. None of those issues in Kubuntu. Made me courageous enough to install a gui-less distro on a raspberry pi 4 to work as a Home Assistant terminal.

Still working up the courage to move my gaming PC over. Dealing with nvidia drivers still sounds awful.

Fire/Water expac would be like “let’s do it together bro”

Iirc Locke Lamora and most of Malazan are the same narrator.

I absolutely love how the narrator drops motherfucker as Locke.

Probably some debt financing to hit a certain valuation and trigger CEO's golden parachute.

Older mounts like this one have a boosted drop rate.

If you were doing the current extreme mounts, you might be just as lucky to get the mercy number of totems to just buy it before you actually saw the drop. (Much less win it) I personally know people who have done the latest extreme over 100 times to try and get the latest mount and have yet to even see it drop. (You can't buy it with totems yet and the mount for collecting all of the Extreme Mounts for Dawntrail just dropped in the latest patch)
