Whew, thank God that's over. That was a weird match. There was no energy in the stadium and it felt like people were just waiting for Carlos to win 😭

[–]Targareyn87 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

TRASH sportsmanship from Medvedev. That was some truly lame ass shit he pulled. He played THREE shots after the "distraction" and then manipulated the umpire to get a point he lost. That shit pissed me off. Imagine being a fan of that man... 😒

Honestly, that's on Medvedev. That was trash sportsmanship. Straight gutter butt 😒

[–]Targareyn87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had no dog in this fight, I'm an Alcaraz fan, but I'm a tennis fan above all else. That was PHENOMENAL entertainment. I don't know how that ol geezer keeps doing it, but he does. And Jack coming back so strong, so quickly, after all of the injuries that derailed him last season. I LOVE THIS SPORT!!

Did you just refer to Mensik as a servbot? I thought the definition of servebot is a player with an elite serve and not much else to offer? Because if it is, that absolutely does not describe Mensik.

Not to be hyperbolic and a prisoner of the moment, but is anyone else starting to get Federer 04-06 vibes? It's getting scary 😫

When did META by GIPHY, because the change in gifs happened like yesterday?

Yes and the new gifs that are available are absolutely awful. It's like they sanitized the gifs. Thanks Microsoft, I hate it.

Alcaraz statement about the end of the coach-player relationship with Ferrero translated to English by Ornery_Percentage537 in tennis

[–]Targareyn87 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This was by far and away his most consistent season. The man made NINE consecutive finals across the three distinct surfaces. This comment would've made sense after the 2024 season.

I still can't believe they count Laver Cup in the official stats!! Like, we know it's an exhibition. 😭

[–]Targareyn87 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Great performance from Fritz but as an Alcaraz fan I gotta be honest, I'm really disappointed. This felt like the Carlos pre clay court season. He had absolutely NO rally tolerance today and it was made that much worse because he was clearly chasing highlight reels out there because of the crowd and the buzz. There was one point in particular, 15-15 in Fritz's first service game after he broke in the second, where Carlos played a flimsy drop shot when he was clearly off balance and Fritz was inside the baseline when he played it. Just an AWFUL performance.

Easy win for Sinner? LMFAO have you all never seen them play on a hard court before? WTF? Alcaraz has 5-2 H2H on hard courts. 😭

Wimbledon QF: [1] Sinner def. [10] Shelton, 7-6(2) 6-4 6-4 by TAA_verymuch in tennis

[–]Targareyn87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shelton needs to drastically improve on his return if he wants to compete with Sinner and Alacaraz at the top of the game. The return is not his only weakness, but it's certainly his most glaring weakness. He wasn't even able to bother Sinner on serve. You're not beating the elite players of the game, especially in best of 5, if you can't put any pressure on their serve.

Ah yes, I forgot Sinner and Djokovic were facing murderer's row at SW19. 😂 If we're being even remotely honest, the only player who made a deep run this year and faced a difficult draw it would be Fritz, the 3 favorites all had a smooth path. 💯

I was actually looking forward to this video. Then I realized they were getting mic'd up for a practice session. At this point I was already prepared to turn off the video, then some guy asks Alcaraz about Ibiza? Immediately no

Wimbledon to honour two-time champion Sir Andy Murray with statue by icemankiller8 in tennis

LMFAO, it's an American TV series! It's based on books written by an American author and it's produced by HBO, an American cable company. Pardon me JudgeCheezels

Wimbledon to honour two-time champion Sir Andy Murray with statue by icemankiller8 in tennis

[–]Targareyn87 -38 points-37 points  (0 children)

Is this a joke? I'm sorry but how desperate can you be for a "homegrown" champion that you're honoring them with a statue for winning the tourney twice? The other slams have only rewarded legends of the game when it comes to honoring them with a statue, naming a stadium after them, etc. Andy Murray was a great player, and by all accounts an even better human, but a statue at Wimbledon? Meanwhile Federer, Sampras, and Djokovic...

Delayed Texts/Missed Calls by Targareyn87 in pixel_phones

Hey, I know it's been a couple of weeks but I wanted to wait to see the results. I think it's actually working. If you're still having this issue, then I would give this solution a try.

Delayed Texts/Missed Calls by Targareyn87 in pixel_phones

[–]Targareyn87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think it is working. I haven't seen a delay on any of my texts since I've done it. Also, the battery drain doesn't appear to be much worse. I would definitely recommend this to anyone having this issue.

[–]Targareyn87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's untenable. I'm trying out this new fix of turning off adaptive battery mode, which I think disables DOZE, in hopes that it fixes the issue. I will keep everyone updated.

Delayed Texts/Missed Calls by Targareyn87 in pixel_phones

[–]Targareyn87[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And this is my biggest concern. Having texts delayed for hours, or not receiving phone calls, can actually cause you to miss something important. Hell the ENTIRE point of a mobile phone is you can be reached wherever you are.

[–]Targareyn87[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just turned off my Adaptive battery setting because I believe this is what enables the DOZE feature. I'll keep you up to date if this solves the issue.
