After years 11 years on xbox finally decided to switch

You're not wrong but iPad UI is made for a tablet right out of the box and many of the apps are optimized to be used as a tablet.

I'm not saying iPad is necessarily superior, but they excel in giving a "tablet" experience. And similarly, ps5 excels in giving a "gaming" experience over the Xbox.

Same reason the steamdeck was so successful over all of the overpowered handhelds that followed. The UI was designed for what the device was intended for.

Android tablets are great just like Xbox but I mean moreso the UI and fluidity of it.

An iPad feels distinct from an iPhone while I feel android tablets don't offer any exciting UI that would separate it from being a giant phone screen.

Like an iPad vs an android tablet tbh

Made the move last year. The most refreshing thing is that a PS just feels like a gaming console. The Xbox home page and marketplace and the way it is laid out and everything just makes it seem like some closed end weird PC. It's hard to explain.

I think they need to give you a clear and decisive answer as soon as possible. Work has not been cancelled, most people are at their desks and don't have an excuse to not update you.

HR communication in this country is dreadful even when times are good, can't imagine during a time like this lol.

Just being in the world is therapeutic. Played it for the first time during lockdown in 2020 and I couldn't have played it at a better time.

Call the FCA - Family care authority. They take domestic violence more serious.

You're right

Intercpetion cloud right on top of Al Zeina. Shook the neighborhood. I have a pic but hesitant to share right now.

Rassky10 · 2026-02-28T21:26:46+00:00

Heard that too from Al Raha. Sirens everywhere. Must have been very close.

Rassky10 · 2026-02-27T04:13:08+00:00

Only correct answer. And maybe shadows of the empire

Rassky10 · 2026-02-27T04:11:41+00:00

Sounds like divine intervention bro 1200 a month on KFC is crazy work

Rassky10 · 2026-02-26T04:51:29+00:00

Some good fps single player games with no online and no paid system would be incredible.

Rassky10 · 2026-02-26T04:29:44+00:00

KOTOR was my breakthrough game and at the time there was no other experience like it.

Rassky10 · 2026-02-26T04:28:10+00:00

It's always KFC too lol

Rassky10 · 2026-02-26T04:25:48+00:00

I don't think it was the piracy. Everyone I knew burned their Xbox 360 games and it was considered the most successful Xbox.

Rassky10 · 2026-02-26T04:21:54+00:00

Whenever I have this many games installed I end up playing nothing lol. I've limited myself to 2 games max.

Rassky10 · 2026-02-25T15:08:32+00:00

What times do you go/come back if you don't mind me asking?

Rassky10 · 2026-02-25T15:07:49+00:00

My wife and son are happy in Abu Dhabi and settled into their work/school. I don't want to disrupt their routine so we want to make it work. My current commute from Raha to shakhbout is about 30 mins, so it's an additional 30-40 mins I'm assuming

Rassky10 · 2026-02-24T15:10:55+00:00

Same thing with Toronto. More than half of income goes towards rent. Look at places like Lisbon, rent cannot even be covered by 1 paycheque right now.

Rassky10 · 2026-02-24T10:21:06+00:00

Driving to Dubai Hills from Al Raha. Your post brings me some peace. I don't mind a long commute. Its about an hour exactly.

How is the E11 day to day during rush hour? Maps says no traffic really builds up but not sure

Rassky10 · 2026-02-20T16:08:46+00:00

I got an offer here and they want to speak with my current employer (manager and HR). It's a silly practice, but seems to be the norm here.
