I really like Overwatch, despite all its flaws and basically everything OW2 is, but never understood who OWL was for. I had zero interest in watching it, and I like the game. I’m sure there were some who did find it interesting, and I know I’m not the only data point, but I still can’t help but feel that if someone…

Apple makes great stuff, but also invests a lot of effort and money into psychological branding and marketing. So this scenario comes at absolutely zero surprise to me. They are an aspirational product company and people will “fake it until they make it”. Happens all over the place though. People intentionally buying…

Well yeah, but I was referring to this quote:

I feel like I’m missing something when people are saying 20-30% performance increase over the prior gen isn’t “life-changing”. And I’m not even an Apple apologist. I own exactly 0 Apple products. If I am in fact dealing with heavy workloads, that 20-30% performance bump would be a godsend. No? 

As long as the phone can still get updates to current apps, it should be able to function with RCS, as the current version of Google Messages (and other apps) can use RCS. If one’s phone is so old it can’t get updates, then yes, they stuck with SMS, but they’re also stuck with a lot of other outdated tech by that…

My vote goes to Danny McBride as Link.

I do like Samsung hardware, but they just need to concede on the software front. Bixby was terrible and the dedicated button was annoying. All their own versions of things like calendar, SMS, and the like are equally bad.

As a child of the 80's, I recall early MTV and how terrible a lot of the videos were. So at the time, We Built this City seemed kind of normal. Was it good, even for back then? No. Was it a standout bad back then? Also no. Ridiculous transitions, terrible green screen, and early 80's sensibility for choreography was…

Honestly, that video is cringy now, but was fairly normal for its era. But even the kid version of me knew Dancing in the Streets was goofy, even back when it was first playing on MTV.

Nah. Make it Jon Bernthal as Link and have him constantly frustrated and losing his shit about lore-accurate mechanics of how things work in a Zelda world.

I personally think Marvel has completely jumped the shark since Endgame, so this being comparable to the best of post Endgame material is still not a shining endorsement in my eyes. But, I will admit that it is entirely possible that I was already Marvel fatigued by the time Endgame came around and only liked it for…

This is in context to the article talking about WeWork though, meaning office space backdrop. 

The funniest part of “Dancing in the Street” is that neither Bowie, nor Mick Jagger could actually dance, regardless of location. And that was on full display in the video. They also looked like they were wardrobed by blindly picking outfits out of an 80's Kmart flyer. It’s all rather epic though as a complete…

The pandemic also didn’t help in showing everyone that work from home is a perfectly fine and viable alterative to having office space. From start ups, to gig works, to corporate 500—work from home has been legitimized. Zoom played a part too in replacing F2F meetings.

You needed a gravy boat to pour on top of each slice. Maybe some slices of canned cranberry sauce. Rule #1 of Thanksgiving meals is to provide proper gullet lubrication in the form of gravy and cranberry sauce. 

I’ve never had it, but it almost sounds like a barely wine from description. I also get the feeling that one has to be a true beer nerd to enjoy it to its fullest extent, as I can’t see your average beer drinker agreeing to $240/bottle, room temp, and 2oz pours.

“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.” 

Well, the 5.56 bullet is also traveling nearly 3X faster than .22lr, so there’s that as well.

That Blackmagic app seems like it is targeted a very small niche of power users. I’d wager the overwhelming majority of iphone owners are fine with the standard camera app. It then becomes a cost/benefit analysis of competing with Blackmagic for that relatively smaller userbase. I’m sure Apple could do it and probably…

Comparisons are a little tricky. Apple’s “no new cost” OS upgrades are because they treat their platform as content delivery, and the content is purchased through their various storefronts. So they’re still making their money alright by controlling all ends: hardware, software and content sales. Same approach as most p…
