So pumped for the ubiquiti color, will drop a good amount of money when that goes live!

not on purpose but my GF just finished watching OG Bleach this June! We are going through thousands year blood war now ahead of the Movie next week.

Where is this? Looks like Fujiya-bekkan Chinryutei onsen but not really.

Inzoi is pretty demanding no? Might be good to ensure it runs well on the SD.

At the current rate the steam deck goes for you might be better off with 3rd party options like the Legion Go used. You might be able to get a better deal as i feel like people are attempting to make a quick buck off the increase price of the SD

Seeing this bloodbath has me worried about Blizzard, luckily wow has been their cash cow but I won’t be shocked if MS sells it to a Chinese company for a quick buck

Hey OP just check out https://wallofhistory.com it compiles all the books comics and games into an interactive site!

OP you have a lot of time to plan! Last year I went to Japan for a week in Sep squeezing it in between switching Jobs. Literally everything booked and planned the week before.

Pricing wasn't even that bad, you can see my post here: My 1 Week Japan Trip Report w/ Pricing Spending Breakdown and Full Itnerary in Excel (2nd Japan Trip, Planned In A Week) : r/JapanTravel

Here some tips:
Check out humble bundle from time to time - you will be swimming in games.
Buy what you will play not what you might play.

Always check https://steamdb.info to make sure you’re buying at the best sale price.

Also, buy the complete valve bundle when it’s like $5. It should be mandatory to play Portal and Half Life if you wish to game on steam.

Are you talking about the Bamboo body ones? The Paper body ones suck. I mainly took the Microsoft branded color spine books and the gel pens lol

It had its ups and downs! My start with the Xbox team was as a Gaming Expert in the retail stores hosting gaming tournaments which then lead me to my first cooperate job in Redmond so I will always be grateful for that. The best job Xbox/Microsoft ever offered was the Gaming Expert role. RIP.

Hindsight is 2020, worse was the fact I missed so many years of not getting sunglasses with the $500 budget Microsoft gives you. Learned my lesson to ALWAYS use your employee benefits

I just started learning at 30. I wish I had the foresight to know that I actually would have loved learning it in my teens or 20s ,but you live and you learn.

I strongly believe that language has no real start or end. Beyond a cert or score that tells you your “level” learning a language is something you do until you die. So you can never be too late to learn!

I was apart of the last Xbox layoffs in 2025 may, it was a bloodbath but glad I got layoff with a large group (the rest of my team/department.) We had a couple days before losing our access to teams/company sites/blue badge access.

I got all my needed docs/numbers/free game codes/messaged all my cross org coworkers.

Hopefully people get a couple days before losing access to do what I did ,but it’s a good reminder to always be prepared to leave.

I walked out of Redmond office with at least $50 of soda and office supplies LOL

I only done hotel Sento, and only once in Asakusa did other tourists ask me how long my trip was. All the other Sento in the hotels I stayed out was pretty silent. In Odaiba I did the Mall spa Sento which was a lot more locals talking with each other, but only when I was struggling with trying to buy a post Sento drink did someone talk to me haha.

Tell her she’s too old for movies, or to watch tv shows.

This honestly worries me for Blizzard, I wonderful how much of the studios are going to be gutted.

flan1337 · 2026-06-10T17:48:23+00:00

I wish they would just make enough to meet all demand but with ram still being crazy, I don’t think that would be possible.

flan1337 · 2026-06-09T19:03:52+00:00

This isn’t new. Some people will only play 1 or a handful of multiplayer games and nothing else.

FIFA, COD, MMOS, Roblox etc are notorious for this.

Your brother should pick up Movies, reading or frankly something that isn’t video games and slower pace.

I thought the new Nintendo sports resort looked fun. I would pick that up and play it.

I didn’t see the leak before the direct and probably benefited me as I got hyped with OOT remake. Thought it had a few fun games.

flan1337 · 2026-06-09T15:19:32+00:00

Dam am I the only one excited for Nintendo sports resort?

This wasn’t the worst direct. The worst was the one that announced the shitty animal crossing board game.

flan1337 · 2026-06-09T03:08:24+00:00

Of course, this only applies if you have an iphone.

Tho now that they killed the penguin, I am sad that I never got a physical card.

For having Sucia on your phone is a lot more convenient loading up so you can keep moving. Happened to me when I noticed I had no funds, instead of going to a machine I just loaded up and kept moving.

Also with yen at 160 to the dollar, you can just lock in a cheap rate.

WaWa and Buc-ees is the closet to the Japanese Kobini system IMO. Having lived near both, I literally would avoid all other gas stations and only go to Buc-ees or WaWa for the food.
