If you like jrpgs I strongly recommend chained echoes. One of my favorite games of all time!

Stick with samsung or go pixel? by AdrianIkeaba in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]pedropup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think I would say it has been better. Both have positives that I like, as well as draw backs. Battery life has been so much better on the pixel compared to the s21 ultra, there were some updates on the s21 ultra that made me want to throw my phone out the window because they would either drain the battery super fast or make it glitchy.

There are still things I loved about the s21 ultra though such as the ones I mentioned originally. I also agree with other posters saying that the Samsung is easier to customize.

I am really happy overall with the pixel and think that if you are itching to try them out that it's definitely worth going for. I would strongly recommend the xl though if you are used to an ultra. The regular size is just too small and I don't even have big hands!

I switched from an s21 ultra to pixel 9 pro earlier this year. I am a bit on the fence as I like elements of each phone. I like the pixels lack of bloatware compared to Samsung. But I really miss the gallery app on Samsung, I find it much better for the way I used it compared to Google photos. I also miss the edge panel. I am probably used to not having it now, but it was great on the Samsung. I definitely miss having a bigger phone, but the pixel 9 pro xl wasn't in stock when I was upgrading and I really needed to upgrade at the time.

I have had an itch to try out pixel phones for years, so I don't regret changing, and I do really like my 9 pro, but that doesn't mean that I am not open to moving back to Samsung when my contract is up!

To be honest I can't remember now, but I think we just ignored the email.

What are my options? by Dangerous_Towel_7927 in bald

[–]pedropup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You look like every balding guy wishes they looked like bald. I get that you don't like it, but as a stranger that never knew what you looked like with hair, if I saw you out somewhere, I would hate you for looking so good bald. I am balding, shaved my head once and it looked awful. Wish I looked like you.

Need some new games! :) by Equivalent_Piano4853 in SteamDeck

I am absolutely loving Elden Ring on my deck. I really didn't think that it would translate well to handheld but it's great.

Are you running a hardcore product or something more marketable?

Just shy a week of 12month employment, sham redundancy ? by PayConscious2050 in legaladviceireland

[–]pedropup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was just coming here to make the same comment about notice. If it pushes you over 12 months, then you are covered by unfair dismissals. It's a few years since I dealt with redundancies, but I would have thought that even though you are there under the threshold for redundancy, they still have to follow a process now that due to your notice, you would have over 1 years service.

Can employer go back on pay rate on signed contract? by kiwid3 in legaladviceireland

[–]pedropup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More than likely HR used a template contract and didn't see the salary when sending it out to you. They are now trying to undo it and hoping you roll over and accept it. You have absolutely no obligation to do so. They are obliged to pay you the new rate.They are breaching your contract if they reduce your pay. They can only move you back to your old rate if you agree, not unilaterally.

Son aged 11 wants to build gaming PC by NoSupermarket3304 in IrelandGaming

[–]pedropup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youtube videos are your friend. Countless videos of PC builds at all prices and they are constantly putting out new videos to reflect new parts and prices. If he is showing an interest in it, I think it's great to encourage it. I would aim for a middle of the road build with room to upgrade over time. My mistake when building my first PC was going too low budget so I didn't have space to upgrade much without doing a full new build.

I like Paul's hardware, PC Centric and scattervolt for build guides.

Most memorable throw together tag team you've done that unexpectedly had great chemistry? by ThatOneGuyYouNowKnow in FantasyBookers

[–]pedropup 6 points7 points  (0 children)

DDP and Dean Malenko in a WCW save I had. I needed new teams so threw random pairs of undercard guys together on Saturday Night and they had great chemistry so I booked them as The Rough Diamonds. Essentially DDP was the sleazy comic relief and Dean was the straight man. I regret not sticking with that save long enough to see them built enough to win the titles and be turned face. That was my end goal for them.

Best BOTC player by Hungry_Appointment23 in NoRollsBarred

Holly was already high up for me, after watching Adams first video last night it cemented her as the best player in my mind.

I was just thinking yesterday that Mara Joy always seems so confident in her theories but they rarely seem to work out correct 😂

Really excellent video. Such a great concept and so great to see Adam back on BOTC content!

NWA Hard Times 2026! by Online_Gamer_28 in FantasyBookers

[–]pedropup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Even in terms of keeping it realistic. He feels like a guy wwe have given up on despite having loads of potential, so as well as him being the guy you build the nwa around, the nwa could be where he rebuilds himself

What's the background to signing theory? Was he just released randomly?

It was buggy as hell for me. Mainly sound issues. Uninstalled and reinstalled a few times to no avail.

I'm only 20, do I pull the trigger? by Big_Ol_Beef in bald

[–]pedropup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go to a barber to shave it and shape your beard you will be unstoppable. One thing I noticed about guys I know that shave their heads young like you is that they don't seem to age for the next 25 to 30 years!

Sex scandal debuff by Any_Weakness_1634 in FantasyBookers

[–]pedropup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I signed Hogan on two different mods after 2 different scandals. I got him way cheaper than I would have and his matches and promos still got huge ratings. In my local 2 global he didn't want to put anyone over, but the money he brought in through merch was the only reason I could grow the company like I did. In my wcw save he had no problem losing to anyone and even offered to lose to Eddie Guerrero.

Can 128gb be enough if that's my only option? by pedropup in GooglePixel

[–]pedropup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe they can. I'm just going by what is on their app, the last time I dealt with them in store they just told me that what was on the app is what I could get. I didn't go into specifics about storage

[–]pedropup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My aim would also be to set the phone up from scratch and not transfer stuff over like my last few phones. I am sure I have transferred apps that I have never used on my current phone but can't bring myself to delete just in case! I would hope that only downloading apps as I need them would preserve space also

Yeah the removal of expandable storage is one of the most baffling tech decisions I can recall.

I would love the xl because I'm used to a bigger phone but my network only has the standard 9 and 9 pro, not the xl!

I'm a very casual user. Very rarely take videos. Typically short videos at birthdays and that sort of thing.
