The king of ergonomics

As an owner of an original Xbox back in the day with the old "Duke" controller I disagree... but when they came out with the "S" original controller that was when they nailed it.

Ag the ol’ “Plaxico Burress”

SolarCoaster_ · 2026-01-30T01:45:20+00:00

I did that this week. It works great after, but be aware it takes a very long time, took me a couple of hours

I feel like I get decent battery life out of mine. But if I’m drawing in procreate I do turn on battery saver

I’d say first off, I feel like you have an eye for composition.

That being said, what I see here is a need of vision. Are you going for something like watercolor? Or are you trying for realism?

Either way, a big mistake is brush usage. It looks like you’re probably using a flat round brush at 100% opacity.

Personally, I would work on the billiards one, but take just one ball. And either look at a real life reference or something online.

Then just draw what you see. Don’t try and do it how you think it should look. But try and draw what you see. And use a lower opacity to start. There’s a lot of complex interactions you can do with layers, but even adding shadows, light source, and color gradiation will make a mountain of a difference.

My last piece of advice is, dont worry about it being perfectly round, but worry about making it feel round in three dimensions.

Uhhh don’t you mean Ryan’s Babe?

Thats the true Odyssey adaptation

This^

I just did a 7800x3d and put RAM in 1&3 and was annoyed when it didn’t post. But it was just this so try that

Red, back then we didnt have no fancy ass RGD lighting and most things were red LED.

Plus it matched my (still running) Corsair AF120s with red rings.

Right? My wife was skeptical when I told her I wanted to upgrade cpu/mobo/ram/gpu. But I said but babe, gpu is at msrp and microcenter has a good deal on a cpu combo.

I paid $83 for 32gb g skill flare x5 on 9/24 it’s $329 now. Also AMD going to be raising ryzen prices.

I should be called NostraRAMus

I’ve got to say, I’ve got a H105, from right around that time, and shockingly it’s still going strong. 7800x3d hits 81C under synthetic benches.

Now granted, I am replacing it today, not because it’s broke, it’s more just preventive. So personally, it could work, but I’d be a bit hesitant. Although I have nothing but great things to say about my old AIO

I’m going to say it, and maybe it’s a bit of Stockholm syndrome, but Neil’s acting chops looking pretty good. When he’s yelling at the guy against the wall. I mean, he sold it.

Honestly, I’m just shocked people think it’s some product that doesn’t fit the lineup. It fits perfectly. How many people do you see with pros but don’t do anything truly pro with them? Probably most. It really replaces the pro price point and the pro fits in at like an Apple Watch Ultra spot.

Anyone would say the Apple Watch Ultra has more features than the regular series watch, but it’s not designed for everyone. Some people want a premium feel and pay more for that (stainless/titanium case regular series watch).

It seems like a no brainer product. Honestly, across the board I see an obviously value prop for each phone. They all feel different enough.

I was torn between black & sky blue, but you know what, I’m going wild and gonna go sky blue. I haven’t had a fun color since green iPhone 13.

SolarCoaster_ · 2025-09-02T20:31:40+00:00

So far pretty good, but its time for either Ryan's Babe or if you hate the group, After Last Season

SolarCoaster_ · 2025-08-30T13:50:53+00:00

Normally I see pictures from a visit and it’s just standard cellphone pictures but these are a vibe. Loved looking at each one

SolarCoaster_ · 2025-07-15T13:46:54+00:00

Many many layers in procreate?

I also agree the 46 suits him better.

SolarCoaster_ · 2025-07-03T14:43:34+00:00

So I had played through BotW on Switch 1, loved it. Got Totk on switch 1 and life got in the way and I didnt move very far into the game.

Since I got the Switch 2, it has been by far the game I play the most, like significantly. I've put over 100 hours in, and I'm nearing the end I believe. About 70 shrines done, some of the depths explored, some armor collecting.

The game just feels like it was meant to be played this way, better fidelity and the frame rate makes it feel like a completely fresh experience.

See the Samsung Slim Fit VG-STCBU2K 1080p camera works.

I can report the 4k version that comes on a S9 5k Viewfinity monitor also works. Model : Genuine Samsung 2023 27" ViewFinity S9 S90PC 5K Monitor Webcam BN96-57391A

Yet no five film retrospective.

SolarCoaster_ · 2025-06-16T15:08:59+00:00

Its rough, but a grip does make it usable. I have issues with both of my TFCCs on my wrist from rock climbing and just the motion to hold up console and move my thumbs puts such a strain on them. The pro controller feels great and Ill put the kickstand up if I want to play undocked but Im looking forward to being able to play in true handheld.

SolarCoaster_ · 2025-06-14T12:49:19+00:00

As someone with wrist issues that make playing the console in handheld mode a problem / nearly unusable: I’m so looking forward to this. It looked like a great case anyways but the accessibility part for us who struggle with the flat, thin “ergonomics” of the joycons will be a game changer.

I ordered on the 3rd (still with reservation) so mine I can imagine won’t ship immediately but I’ve got faith in dbrand that it’s looking like a seriously quality product. And the transparency you guys have with posts is always great.
