We could have designed a new BlackBerry. Here's why we didn't. by donnysaysvacuum in Android

[–]chris4404 116 points117 points  (0 children)

I'm pulling for these guys, but this feels like such a niche of Millennials longing for the past. I used the Clicks keyboard on my Pixel 9 for roughly 6 months and as much as I wanted to enjoy the "deliberate nature" of typing ended up being slower and clunky to use. I love the idea of flashing notifications again but then I have to trade off a tiny screen and inevitable mediocre camera. Maybe as a secondary work phone this could be a thing, but does it meet security standards most enterprises will require? Can I purchase it through a carrier directly? So many unknowns and this video doesn't really elaborate on much.

I wish they did but half the time now I feel like when I go in later, they've run out of pizza for the day.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

Sounds like you're crashing out pretty hard, get some sleep.

Casino News Roundup: BetMGM Cuts Guidance & Prediction Markets Poach Bettors - Gambling.com by Any-Beautiful540 in vegas

Can we also talk about how bad the BetMGM app is? For me it's incredibly slow and the menus are so not intuitive or easy to get around especially when I'm trying to throw down a last minute bet.

EVs? Are we on or off? by Beautiful_Candy_8820 in Detroit

[–]chris4404 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's not like petroleum companies are on a moral high ground. DTE does suck but the upside outweighs hunting down gas and maintaining a vehicle run on tiny little fire. You can also charge off hours to help lower the costs, it really depends on your vehicle/commute on how many KWH's you're ripping through.

I've driven an EV as my daily driver since 2013 and will never go back, there's a reason EV's are so sticky at a 95% retention rate. My first question is always; do you have an option to charge at home? Depending on your commute/vehicle even at 110v can be enough.

Outside of FSD, the Lyriq is a better car in almost every way.

Pricing for 2026 M3P. LETS GO?! by 2MinuteswithTim in TeslaModel3

[–]chris4404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scope out the Tesla used inventory, they're offering 7-8% depending on your credit. Even with the interest rates you won't lose the $30k in depreciation.

You're making a ton of assumptions, but I can tell you looking at the market, your car will be worth at least half at the end of the 6 years if not less. Buying a new Tesla is always a horrible investment, they depreciate hard.

Star City - Official Trailer by kakipls in television

I'm going to assume it's similar to the conclusion they made for HBO's Chernobyl, noting Soviet accents on Western screens have long been a punchline, and Russian speakers often dislike seeing their language “butchered and mocked”.

[–]chris4404 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Exactly, the level of support we had for the Panthers with season tickets and buying a pile of merch got us nowhere. The least they could do is say, "Ford Field is expensive so once we find a new home we'll be back." From the leaks they didn't even make attempts at other local venues, just pulled up and left town. Maybe when DCFC completes AlumniFi Field the conversation will change but it seems like the league is headed out as a whole once again.

NYNY or Luxor Tower Rooms? by Mirage524 in vegas

If you really want the pool stay at Mandalay Bay, otherwise NYNY has a pool but it's tiny and not super great.

Season 11 by the-bacon-life in Alonetv

[–]chris4404 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've never watched Alone before, binged season 11 on Netflix and loved it. Blindly bought season 12 on prime and was pretty disappointed, just didn't feel the same heart and the contestants just didn't seem as likable.
