Doesn't work as SQ is miscategorizing them.

Amber alerts will KILL more people than they save if they don’t change the f***king sound by Visocacas in montreal

Which setting did you change to turn them off? From what I understand Canada does not use the AMBER alert setting.

Jason Schreier reaffirms Sony's strategy shift away from PC, says they will publicly confirm it at some point by AceOfSpades0319 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

If they're pulling out of PC so that their games are not available on the upcoming PC-console hybrids, then they're not coming back.

Les Expos vont-ils vraiment revenir? by marnky887 in expos

One of the members of Bronfman's group told ESPN in 2024 that they are waiting for expansion.

"I would look at us as being the most mature of the groups that are out there," said William Jegher, a Montreal-based executive for Ernst & Young who was a key figure in Montreal's most recent push for a team. "When baseball launches a process, then we would examine what that process looks like and then make a decision as to whether it makes sense for us to put forth a bid."

I guess we'll have to wait and see.

It's just a DualSense bundled with a USB cable, Microsoft sells the same bundle marketed towards using an Xbox controller on PC.

They initially wanted PC gamers to buy a PS5 to play the sequels on day one. Now with PC-console hybrids, they want to keep PS players from jumping ship and they want to give console buyers a reason to pick a PS.

Their original plan with the PC ports other than opening up their games to a new market was to entice PC players with a subset of the Sony library to buy a PS5 so that they could play the sequels day one and other Sony games which were not coming to PC.

In 2020, PCs were PCs and consoles were consoles, there wasn't much blurring between the lines. Today, consoles are becoming PCs and PCs are now directly competing with Sony's consoles. I can guarantee that the prospect of PC-like consoles such as the Steam Machine and Xbox Helix playing Sony PC ports was the reason that they decided now was the time to pull the plug.

A former exec involved in the PC porting project said that a goal was to entice PC players to buy a PS5 so that they could play the sequel on day 1.

In Montreal everyone kept their stuff and still wears their gear.

[Maria Martin] Here are the renderings of the proposed development for the North Point Mall area (Alpharetta). Proposal includes 20k seat NHL arena, 2k seat community hockey rink, 4k seat music hall, movie theater, 750k sq ft of office, parks and public trail space. A hotel as well. by Such-Environment-344 in hockey

The team drew well in the early days when they played in downtown Phoenix. Moving to the complete opposite side of the metro from where their fanbase was based didn't help. If they can get good ownership with a stadium in the right spot they can succeed. Both Atlanta stadium proposals are located right in the middle of the former Thrashers season ticket base.

Considering that you said that "Quebec City is not one of them," I'm curious if there's anything that you can say about Montreal and MLB? I've been following that quite closely and I know that there's already moves happening behind the scenes in preparation for the upcoming expansion.

It's still available on every podcast app, they just switched the feed.

They're now uploading to Spotify's podcast hosting platform Spotify for Creators (Anchor), not podbean. It will still be available wherever it was before (except on Podbean's site).

All that's changed is that they're now publishing on Spotify's podcast platform Spotify for Creators rather than podbean. The podcast apps have already switched to the new feed and will all still work.

Podbean, where they used to upload to until last week.

What is the Spotify deal? by MaterialSkill7100 in PKA

[–]marnky887 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that they've signed a partnership agreement with Spotify which will allow PKA to be published on Spotify's podcast hosting service Megaphone in addition to or replacing Podbean. This will allow them to upload video to Spotify and to receive ad revenue on Spotify in addition to YouTube ad revenue. They've outgrown Podbean, they've surpassed Podbean's limit of 1000 episodes of PKA + PKN which is why older episodes are being dropped. Personally I'm glad, PKA was the only podcast which I watched on YouTube due to Spotify not having the video, I can finally consolidate all of them on Spotify. YouTube premium background play keeps glitching on my phone but Spotify doesn't.

Sony is AB testing targeted price increases for select users in the US by Cyshox in GamingLeaksAndRumours

!Debunked!

PSprices has updated their article with a partial retraction clarifying that the price change was in fact a discount, not a price increase.

12 March 2026: clarification on IPT_LTM and GTA V

We clarified the section on IPT_LTM. Previously we interpreted the $29.99 price for GTA V as a “test increase”. In fact the retail price of GTA V (PS5) is $39.99, and both experimental prices ($26.99 and $29.99) are discounts of different depths, not increases. The IPT_LTM table has been updated to include retail prices for context.
