I’ll add another recommendation for The Farseer trilogy by Robin Hobb, it is absolute peak storytelling imo

Robin Hobb’s books are my favorite series of all time, probably across all forms of media too, highly highly highly recommend

Only gAmErS get that joke!

I don’t have a bandwidth cap but my download speed is 40 Mbps max, soooo copying back and forth between HDD and SSD is way faster for me lol.

Plus, it doesn’t happen much (if ever) that a game gets delisted/removed, but I prefer having a local copy of game files for games I care about rather than trusting remote servers to always have it available.

According to AMD themselves, no.

Seeing the initial new Marathon trailer might have been the most excited and then disappointed I’ve ever been with a game announcement. So excited for them to bring that franchise to the modern era, but so disappointed that it was just an extraction shooter. Ugh.

I definitely remember a lot of people whining about how long Infinite took to release, especially when it got delayed a full year, and then finally releasing after 6 years, it wasn’t even that good. The old 3 year cadence was pretty perfect imo, plenty of time for each game to have a good run before the next one, and not close enough together to cause fatigue.

Man why couldn’t there be a keyboard like this that also has swipe typing D: I miss the ctrl-like functions of the Swype logo button on the Swype keyboard so much, specifically the select all and the select-one-word abilities

What I really want from it is just a quick record shortcut that only captures the last minute or 3 like the consoles have. I don’t want to have to go back later and save it after marking it.

Maybe I’m in a minority here, but one feature I seriously never want to give up from my Samsung is motion photos. I know they’re silly but they capture sooooo many lovely moments with friends/family/pets.

Comrade?

2 things can be true at the same time. In this case the science is good and accurate, and since we live in a capitalist hellscape, corporations will take advantage of the science at every opportunity.

Also, I want to own the proper high quality version of my movies. There’s such a noticeable difference between 4K streaming quality and 4K disc quality… if they stop making discs, there isn’t any website where movies are sold at that uncompressed quality level digitally.

Or Target, unless they also are stopping…

I’m with you bud :/

In high school and college, I used to be the kind of person who always overanalyzed everything with intense scrutiny, especially things related to dating/romance, and I felt like I was just a constant failure in that part of my life. I wasn’t always single, I did have some relationships over the years, but during those relationships I remained the overanalytical type, always overly worried that something might be going wrong or that I said the wrong thing, replaying conversations in my head thinking of better ways to say things, etc. After one stretch of being single after semi-unwillingly breaking off an engagement (and continuing to be overanalytical), I was asked out by a new person and we started dating, and fell in love incredibly fast, and are now very happily married.

When she asked me out and we went on that first date and both realized how incredibly well we got along, something flipped in my brain, and I have literally never been the same since; that was 10 years ago, and I no longer overthink things at all, and it has been the greatest gift anyone could’ve given me.

Wait, like, for real?

Bud, I pay $60/mo for 30 down, 1.5 up 🙃

Yeah good point actually… I’m still holding a little hope for RCS to finally be added to Textra someday so I can go back to that instead of Google Messages…
