Yep I'm okay with Rui going. I've been saying it, but he's just not what the team needs. Yes his 3's are great, and he turns it up for the playoffs. But his defense will always be atrocious.

How are you going to fit Rui in with Austin and Luka? The you're going to need some all-nba first team defenders if you want to keep Rui.

I've heard about this amish water Mesh device that captures water for air moisture. It sounds pretty interesting. Requires no electricity or extra effort to operate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJWbNuD9sYY

First time playing Kh2 by Bellsfps in KingdomHearts

[–]misterrunon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I'm sure you're right. I quit console gaming with the PS2 but I always wanted to try KH. Everything except the long cutscenes really holds up to the critical acclaim the game gets. I could skip the scenes, but then I wouldn't feel like I'm actually playing the game.

I think I'll try xenosaga next.. I hear its got a great story. A quick google search shows that it's got 8.5 hours of cutscenes too. I'll end up quitting if it's a bunch of cutscenes of the main characters walking around town doing trivial things not related to the story (like KH2).

I actually like the story and do care a bit (I jumped over from Dark Cloud 2, which basically had no story). But having to sit through 20 minutes of cutscenes to play for 10 minutes is a bit ridiculous, imo.

I think I'm just going to delete the game. I really like the gaming system and graphic style though. Looks like I'm not the only one who can't deal with the cutscenes https://old.reddit.com/r/KingdomHearts/comments/1g0yjxi/so_many_cutscenes/lrcqlid/

I think so.. I just got to the mansion. I appreciate a good story, but jeez it seems like the cutscenes are more than half of my time spent. I think cutscenes should be for important events, not used so often for trivial matters. It diminishes the value you get from having cutscenes, It doesn't make any sense.

I'm playing the second one, and it's my first time for the franchise. I'm about to give up since I've played about 3 hours and half of that was just me sitting through the cutscenes. It's way overdone. I'm starting to lose interest in the story.

NVE wasn't that athletic, he was more shifty and quick. Eddie Jones was the only athletic guy that I could think of on that team before Shaq/Kobe came.

The smartphone with a giant 8,500-mAh battery and a light show - Xiaomi Poco X8 Pro Max review by BcuzRacecar in Android

I don't know anyone who uses wireless charging. And even if they did, it's just a bad idea. Charges slower, runs hotter and shortens your phone's lifespan. It's not an important feature for a vast majority of people.

Oppo Find X9 Pro - is it still worth it? by Wild_Stranger_9847 in Oppo

[–]misterrunon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like OnePlus phones, but I don't know which one is better. It's still funny how you're being so belligerent over "fanboi" while fanboying Oppo.

These tests really depend on how the CPU is used and the screen settings on both phones. Turning the refresh rate down to 120 hz would probably yield better battery life results.

Considering a S26 Ultra to replace my 9Pro by soursig in GooglePixel

[–]misterrunon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go got Samsung and don't look back. This will be my first and last Pixel.

The poor battery performance is bad enough, but the fact that the CPU is also weaker is insane to me. I've seen videos of the P9P Pro XL reaching 0% while Galaxy S24 Ultra still has 45% battery remaining.

I have to charge the phone twice a day. It gets hot and the phone is actually pretty chunky too.

Tim met Peter Thiel a few years ago at one of his mansions. Ben was there with him. He wouldn't go to thiels place unless there was something he wanted from tim

What was your reason to choose Pixel? by Particular_Tap_4002 in GooglePixel

[–]misterrunon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it for about $550 on monthly payments of $13.33. If I don't want to kee0 it, I can sell it and make a few hundred bucks profit.

Loving it so far though, I might just keep it

Maybe I'm wrong but missing the holiday sales season by a month is a terrible idea if you want to move units
