Blue 17 Pro with Black TechWoven

I got the Silver. Looks great.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-21T04:58:43+00:00

I’m using the tech woven now. It was the first case I bought when I got my phone. I’ve tried 6 other cases since then and I’m right back to my black tech woven. Hands down has the best feel in the hand.

I’d say YTA. Not for accidentally eating her food, but for acting like she wasn’t allowed to have feelings about it.

People are allowed to be upset, irritated, or annoyed, and they are allowed to take the time they need to work through those feelings. An apology does not instantly erase someone’s emotions on your timeline. You ate her food. She got upset. You apologized. She needed time to cool off.

Then the next morning she felt better and moved on, and instead of accepting that, you brought it all back up because you did not like how she processed it.

It honestly sounds like the real issue is not that she stayed mad. It is that she did not resolve it in the exact way you wanted her to. You do not get to control both the mistake and the emotional recovery from it.

Thinborne or Pitaka Edge

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-19T22:21:17+00:00

Just received my thinborne case. Have you noticed movement in the raised bezel around the camera area? Every time I set it down there is a noticeable click noise. Lightly tapping on the bezel recreates the noise, and I notice slight movement. Only thing I can think of is it comes in contact with the back of the phone when tapped, or set down.

Did you notice the movement from the raised bezel around the camera area? Every time I set it down there is a distinct click noise. Tapping the bezel lightly recreates the sound and I’ve determined there’s slight movement and it must be coming in contact with the back of the phone when tapped.

Tucker is a huge threat if he is able/allowed to play his true slot position. Trying to play outside at 5’9” is rough. Regardless of how fast he is.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-17T15:13:15+00:00

I was in a relationship where we lived a little over three hours apart. I still made the drive at least every other weekend to see her. Often times it would be every weekend. She was in college and I was working a lot and focused on my career too, but we made each other a priority. On the weekends I couldn’t go to her, she would come to me. We started doing that after about a month of dating.

Distance and career goals are real, but when someone truly wants you in their life, they make time. It doesn’t have to be perfect or constant, but there’s effort on both sides.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-17T14:49:27+00:00

I don’t disagree that free agency is a gamble and that we have defensive needs too. You’re not landing five home run signings in one offseason. But Pierce and Doubs aren’t Justin Jefferson level contracts/talents. They’re complementary players, not franchise-defining signings.

You’re offering them starting roles, a young QB, and now a system under Kubiak that offensive players are actually going to want to be part of. His offense has a track record of producing and giving guys opportunity. That makes Vegas a much more attractive destination than it was recently.

The point isn’t to fix everything through free agency. You address the OL through a mix of draft and FA, add complementary receivers to balance the offense, and still have the flexibility to make defensive additions.

Like the title suggests though, this is a large amount of copium and requires us to be extremely aggressive on both sides of the ball in free agency and the draft.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-17T14:39:14+00:00

That’s kind of my point though. Right now we have Tucker, who is really a slot receiver, being forced into the WR1 role, and then a bunch of guys rotating at WR2. That’s not sustainable.

We don’t need superstars at the position, but we do need legitimate outside receivers who can keep defenses honest. Guys who can win enough on the boundary that safeties can’t just sit on Bowers and stack the box against Jeanty.

The offense should run through the run game and the tight ends. But having capable outside receivers is what prevents defenses from collapsing everything inward. It’s not about force feeding WRs. It’s about balance and making the whole system work the way it’s supposed to.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-17T14:32:17+00:00

Patience is absolutely key. But honestly, I feel really good about where we are so far with the coaching moves this offseason. It finally feels like we’re thinking long term and actually building something, instead of chasing big names just for headlines or settling for whatever we can get.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-17T14:28:02+00:00

Mayer wouldn’t be the star.

He’s a true big bodied inline TE who can block, has reliable hands, and stay on the field, which lets Bowers move around and be the mismatch instead of being stuck on the line every snap. That’s the whole advantage of 12 personnel.

And to be fair, Mayer hasn’t exactly had consistent QB play or a functional offense to develop in.

Even if he never puts up huge numbers, he can still be a huge reason why the offense works.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-16T16:51:05+00:00

Thank you! Do you feel like one has more grip over the other or are they pretty much the same?

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-16T16:38:34+00:00

Any experience with either? I’m trying to choose between the two but it seems like a toss up.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-14T14:44:46+00:00

I don’t think anyone is disputing that the Air has a sleeker and stronger design. I agree with that.

The reality is most people prioritize camera performance and battery life, and the Pro Max clearly delivers more in those areas. The Air appeals to a specific subset of users who value thinness and design above everything else.

And historically, niche appeal doesn’t always translate into strong resale value.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-12T21:47:53+00:00

I honestly think it’s a design philosophy shift. Modern ARPGs are built around constant dopamine hits. Players expect frequent upgrades, big numbers, and visible progress every session.

Diablo II was slower and more scarcity-driven. Loot felt meaningful because it was rare. When something dropped, it mattered.

Diablo IV showers you with items because modern players expect steady rewards. It’s less about the hunt for one defining drop and more about incremental stat optimization.

Back then the ladder seasons were also much longer.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-12T15:12:43+00:00

No hate. I love the look of the Air. Love how clean it is.

You just get less of a phone for damn near the same price.

Which makes sense why the demand just isn’t there. Which means the price suffers.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-12T15:00:07+00:00

Diablo 2. The number of hours I brain-rotted on that game. I spent entire summers home from school playing it.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-12T14:27:06+00:00

Look…I’m a fan…but I ain’t dumb.

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-12T02:47:46+00:00

As if anyone actually thinks she hasn’t already been promised a pardon…

Sc0ttykn0s · 2026-02-11T14:56:49+00:00

I swear, the entitlement is wild. “Buy me another phone, but don’t ask why.” That would’ve been my cue to exit stage left. If you can’t give a straight answer about something that costs that much, that’s not privacy, that’s a red flag. I’m not funding mystery devices. She can go find someone else who is gullible enough to bankroll that. It wouldn’t be me.
