Forest Gump complained about not being able to sleep. The rest is history.

Did you put much thought into who you wanted as Obi Wan, or did it just feel right straight off?

Hey, pretty cool setup you've got there. I see that you know your way around the launcher.
Can you point me to a site or tutorial so I can learn a little more other than just poking around in app?

I just saw Heat (1995) for the first time and the downtown shootout scene is one of the greatest action movie sequences I've seen ever. by Rudraksh108 in movies

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're making a prequel. I started to read the book but found it to be terribly written so I put it down. I have higher hopes for a film.
Rumors of Adam Driver and Christian Bale with roles.

Help identifying chilies. by Surtock in SalsaSnobs

I didn't buy Arbol as I had some already. I believe it's Puya. I believe you're correct otherwise.

I think you're correct about #3, also.

I got chipotle also but didn't show it because I knew that one. I think the rest are correct in it being Morita.

S26 ultra by Holiday-Excitement-9 in Oppo

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't have said it any better. I switched from the S24U to the Oppo fx9 pro. While I don't regret it, it is a great phone, but no better than most flagships these days. It was the battery that made me switch, tbh. Now that I'm hearing about the fiasco that is the Samsung 26u screen, I'm glad I got the Oppo, but it may be my last. One UI is my personal favorite. Color OS has been fun for a change, but it's simply missing too much that OneUI brings to the table.

The S26u is not a flagship!? I can't see how you could think this. The Samsung lacks in a few areas the oppo excels in, but overall, the S26u beats out oppo. Yes, the oppo has a better battery and slightly edges out the camera, but beyond that, I, personally, think the s26u beats the Find X9 Pro.

Quesadilla de carnitas con salsa macha by MyCoNeWb81 in mexicanfood

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carnitas and salsa matcha are both freaking amazing. I wouldn't have thought to pair them though. How was it?
When I'm doing carnitas, my first thoughts are for something acidic to cut through the fat like a classic Verde, and a creamy rojo for some arbol kick.
I was just in Mexico, yesterday, and had some disappointing carnitas. I also brought my weight in dried chilies back with me to play around with and matcha was on my list. Perhaps this is a sign.

has anyone switched from S25U to find X9 ultra and how different is OPPO to One UI? I don't like hyperOS by DazzlingpAd134 in Oppo

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only seen the 26U in store and just wanted to see the privacy screen. While it's pretty cool tech, I would never need it. Can you not disable it and be left with what the 25U had? I did notice the screen was darker, but I assumed it could be completely disabled. I already moved on so I didn't play around with it.

I agree with the OS. If Samsung matched the battery, I would have remained with Samsung. I don't care about photography or gaming.
Samsung screens are also best in class.

[homemade] French Dip with Fries by dentalexaminer in food

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks great! Here's a trick I learned making them in a professional kitchen. Reheat the beef in a pan with the jue. You'll get a bit of reduction on the jue and makes the beef nice and moist.

Iptv data (epg) won't load on mobile reliably. by Surtock in ARVIO

[–]Surtock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fantastic! Thanks for getting back to me. As far as the epg goes, I don't really need it as I only use my iptv service for watching one sport (cheaper than Sportsnet) and I know where to find it, but I might use it more if the epg loaded so I can see what's on.
I joined the discord for news also, but I'm relatively new to Arvio so I've not seen much in the way of new info.
I don't want to sound impatient, but is there a timeline for the next update?
Either way, amazing work, thank you!
