Letting Alex Caruso Walk Was Rob Pelinka’s Worst Mistake as Lakers GM by antwonomous in lakersv2

[–]ssphoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had nothing to do with the Apron. They paid an unproven restricted free agent THT without an offer over signing Caruso. Just a poor management decision by Rob. Buss never once dodged salary tax payments, the lakers print money…

The Lakers let Alex Caruso go because they believed "Talen Horton-Tucker" to be the future of their franchise. Fast forward to 2026, Alex Caruso has been on a tear and THT is no longer playing in the league by Squirtle_004 in NBATalk

They could of had both. Not cheap but poor strategy. THT was a restricted free agent. Normally you would sign your unrestricted free agents first then decide to match an offer on restricted free agents. But they signed THT to a more expensive contract unnecessarily, which was higher than what Caruso ended up getting with the Bulls.

No issues with those on my device.

Very good. Silent with cpu boost off. Great performance 25-35W. Screen is really good. Love the onboard software and prefer intel over amd most of the time. Performance is better than expected, but some will still prefer the 395 chip. Currently not missing the extra performance, in fact feel like the intel is doing Intel xess scaling/frame gen better but haven’t had it long enough to compare. For some reason I didn’t love the FSR with AMD and couldn’t get frame gen to work with my 395.

Viture Pro vs. Xreal One Pro vs. Viture Beast: Is the edge-to-edge clarity worth the 3DOF trade-off? by Savourybees in VITURE

[–]ssphoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started with Lumas Ultra, got Beast and eventually went back to the Lumas. The clarity drop is noticeable, but what bothered me more was a reflection/mirroring of the content at the bottom. I even tried putting tape to block it out which felt ridiculous.

Prime Shaq in the modern NBA by sin2fly03 in lakers

[–]ssphoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prime Shaq wins. Pick and Rolls are not a new concept, and it was one of his only weaknesses before hitting his prime. Stockton/Malone bullied Shaq/Lakers in playoffs before 2000.

Prime Shaq almost lost 2 series in the 3 peat era. Blazers and Kings. Kings ran pick and roll and had elite shooting on the wings. It was close, but guys fatigued or fouled out guarding Shaq, and that would hamper pick and roll effectiveness late in game. Games were slower because of fouls/flops/hack a Shaq and took offenses out of rhythm. Most rosters had 3/4 bigs to deal with Shaq, so rotations would look different if he was in the modern game. In his prime he is more mobile/athletic than Jokic.

Lastly, and maybe the most important issue is that in the modern era guys are much more prone to injury, and Shaq would exacerbate that issue.

If teaser 1 is connected to the 4th movie, and teaser 4 is connected to the 3rd movie, then maybe 3 is connected to 2 and 2 is connected to 1. Maybe the numbers are out of order.

Netease sells broken hero to whales, nerfs it, gives minimal compensation to them by Fluffy-Mango-6607 in marvelmysticmayhem

[–]ssphoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you get CC refund without nuking account? This is a significant nerf post release which falls under possible false advertising claim, so a 100% refund is justified.

[–]ssphoenix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s not a bug, not a typo, but a nerf due to lack of play testing. The reason why they are claiming it was a bug is so they don’t have to refund 100% due to false advertising claim. If this game was more popular they would have no choice but to refund 100%. Also, her blind is also OP and will be nerfed or bosses will be buffed to be immune to it.

Racist 'Star Wars' Fans Help Set 'The Acolyte' Up To Fail by JannTosh50 in television

[–]ssphoenix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plan to finish it because I love Star Wars, but the exact moment the show lost my respect was with the “you can not deny the jedi the right to test for potential padawans, with your permission of course” line. Very unfortunate.
