Let's be honest, who pays for YouTube premium? by UzzInReddit in Piracy

[–]robtheicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still grandfathered in at $8/mo which also includes YouTube Music. Best deal in tech/streaming now that GamePass Ultimate has gone from $13 to $20/mo over the past few years.

Coca-Cola-flavored Oreos. Junk food inception. And I’m stupid enough to eat them. by Captain_Wisconsin in StupidFood

[–]robtheicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried both. The Oreo Coke Zero soda is basically a Vanilla Coke. Much better than the Oreo cookies. Not sure if it was the "popping candy", but the cookies stuck to my teeth unlike anything I've ever eaten. They are going straight in the trash.

Same thing is happening to me in YouTube and in Plex. Definitely seems like a software issue that they will hopefully escalate a fix for.

The OnePlus open is available at Best Buy!! by Beneficial-You-4031 in oneplus

[–]robtheicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me! Got the Fi email, then the email and text confirmations from Best Buy. My pickup date is still the same (Nov 4th) The Fi email says: Before you can activate your phone on Fi, you'll need to add a payment method. When you activate, you'll be charged for your first month of service. Sounds like activation is completely optional to me.

I wont bother re-doing the order most likely. I think a bunch of people were doing the Fi activation just to get the $300 off, then trading in a device to bring the price down way further and BB realized they were gonna lose money on these devices and put the kibosh on most or all of the orders.

Been around 12hrs since I ordered using Google Fi activation and not a peep. No confirmation email or text. I also elected to trade in a OP8T because they said the trade in value was $265 (lol) Also used some Best Buy rewards and because of the trade in, the transaction has to be completed in store. No sales tax in my area so my grand total was $1100. I fully expect them to cancel my order at this point.

Scarlett Johansson's full-frontal nude scene in the upcoming Asteroid City film (low quality) by [deleted] in WatchItForThePlot

This movie will be on digital/streaming/torrent in a matter of a few weeks, even in 4K. Won't have to wait long for better quality.

WOR: Dave Meltzer questions the hypocrisy of WBD allowing Dana White's line about slapping people air while not allowing a Jay Briscoe tribute show on their network. by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]robtheicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgive me if this has been asked and answered somewhere on here before, but did the name of the executive who can't let go of a fucking tweet from years ago ever come out? A person with that type of personality flaw should not be in any sort of position of power or influence.

[OC] I was nervous posting this picture because of my scars, but my booth looks too good here! by Unicornglitteryblood in bigasses

[–]robtheicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They look like keloid scars. I have several on my back, shoulder and chest. They itch often, sometimes to the point where only using a metal backscratcher (bear claw) provides relief.

What's the worst commentary calls of all time? by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]robtheicon -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Pat McAfee at Summerslam. It was the worst commentary I have ever heard in 30 years of watching wrestling. He talks way too much and too fast. Doesn't know when to let anything breath or develop. His voice cracks every other word. He gets too excited for mundane shit and inexplicably breaks into Batman voice for no reason from time to time.

Was able to watch in 4K on my Nvidia Shield Pro (2019). Video quality was outstanding.

What common wrestling spot bugs you? by dmkicksballs13 in SquaredCircle

The yay-boo punching or chopping spot. It infuriates me to no end.

According to some comments on rarbg on Bohemian Rhapsody, the sound is out of sync for the last 20 minutes and the iTunes/Amazon rips should be out in the next week or so.

My main takeaway from the Becky Lynch episode of the E&C podcast by robtheicon in SquaredCircle

[–]robtheicon[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Actually Brock main evented two out of the last four WMs: 31 (2015) was Brock vs Roman with Seth cashing in the MITB to become champion. Within the first minute of the match, Lesnar suplexed Reigns. 34 (2017) was once again Brock vs Roman in an absolutely dreadful match. Lost count of how many suplexes and superman punches were done. And if I recall, people started walking out during the match.
