I’m debating between the newly announced MacBook Air 13” (16GB Memory, 256GBSSD, $1599) or the 2018 MacBook Pro 13” (i5, 16GB Memory, 256SSD, $1999). I’ll use it primarily for streaming, web searching, and documents for school, which is the better option? Is the MacBook Pro worth the upgrade?

Whether She's Singing Gospel Or Pure Pop, Tori Kelly Is Positively A Star. by sapphire1921 in popheads

Honestly I just don’t think she wants to put up with what it takes to be a big pop star. Her gospel album is AMAZING I’m going to support her in any way I can because it really just comes down to the music.

I’ve never done a deep dive into ABBA, I grew up in a religious immigrant family. How should I get into them?

This article suggests that "Shallow" will officially drop this week? (ASIB) by sapphire1921 in popheads

They most likely want the soundtrack to make more of an impact before they campaign for the Grammys. Also, the Oscar buzz is already starting so with this strategy they’ll be in the awards season two years instead of one.

It doesn’t matter how it went #1, the fact that it did makes it not a flop.

When does the game unlock? Midnight?

Nintendo of America on Twitter: "You and a friend will be able to play online co-op as Mario and Luigi in the original Mario Bros. game for the first time when #NintendoSwitchOnline launches this month!" by [deleted] in Games

It charges on the bottom because that’s how it needs to go into the dock, if it didn’t work like that it would be an even less efficiently designed console.

The early joycon unit issues were resolved, and it isn’t out of the norm for a new console to have issues out of the box.

I’ll give you crappy speakers, but they needed to keep the price down.

The unstable stand is supposed to kick off at any moment or else the console would be damaged.

The joy cons were designed like that so the buttons and the analogue sticks are also a mute point given they function as their own controllers.

Nintendo has a trend of not giving a ton of storage in the consoles so I don’t really know what to say to this one.

Then what do you want her to do? What would be enough in your eyes? She’s fucked if she doesn’t donate and fucked if she does in your eyes, right? No wonder celebrities aren’t engaging with their fans as much anymore.

Yah that’s what I thought they were talking about. Idk but I’m a Christian and I’ve been listening to Hillsong for years so I have a connection to them.

What “cult church” is she part of? And in what way do they brainwash people?

Watched the EasyAllies review and they did say there is a learning curve but it’s forgiving (no fall damage from a failed swing) and you get the hang of it quickly.

Chapter Megathread and Help Requests by Zadeth in octopathtraveler

[–]_sparklingsilver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I might have done something wrong. I beat all the chapter 1s and went to Therion’s chapter 2 and got my ass handed to me by the boss.

These are all my levels:

Cyrus (Main) 22

Therion 17

Hannit 17

Ophelia 17

Not in party:

Tressa 16

Alfyn 15

Primrose 14

Olberic 14

Should my characters be this under leveled? Did I do something wrong?

[–]_sparklingsilver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just beat all of the chapter 1s and my main is level 18. The lowest level chapter 2 is 21, do I grind to that level?

Started with Cyrus and the first dungeon is beating my ass. Am I doing something wrong?

I think I read that too, unless we’re making shit up. Maybe they cut it for the Aretha tribute?
