Point of order: The S20+ has 12GB RAM, which is also my current phone. The 21 - 23+ all have 8GB, which is objectively a downgrade. I don’t play games, but I DO use my phone in some kind of funny ways centering on content creation (e.g. I can record the HDMI out on my real camera to my phone and use it as a display…

The good news is that someone wanting a full-blown co-op superhero (or villain) game now has the option to return to Paragon City on HomeComing’s City of Heroes servers. Make your own Daddy Shark or Marmot Lass or whatever. The truth is that there is no better multi-player super hero computer than a 20 year old game…

$92! Why that’s almost enough to buy one AirBud!

Any game that was clearly designed for a gamepad.
I just hate gamepads THAT much.

I think it’s more an excuse to give bring out the Kingpin for another round than anything else. It’s also nice to see more street level heroes who aren’t doing cosmic multiverse whatever nonsense all the time.

You have a decent smartphone SoC and some AI that’s been trained to make pictures look better than you remember from phones you’ve had in the past.

There is a school of thought that both the moral and ethical axes should be from the standpoint of the divine power the paladin serves, with the classic real world example being the very real differences between European Christians crusading in the Muslim world  and the defenders of the Holy Lands. Both could be said…

Smartphone cameras are a scam regardless. The image sensor is a fraction of the size of your pinky nail. Having one that pretends that it can sample 100MP and a 10x zoom with optics that’ll fit in something the size of a phone just means that a massive percentage of the output of a photo is going to be computed and  in…

While my universal condemnation that all users of iOS are subhuman filth deserving only of hell’s hottest fires remains in full effect; that no organism such as has inflicted iOS software on what was once a single species should be allowed to leave this Earth before facing seppuku in contrition; that executives of…

I did say “without qualification.” 

I’m sure this content, like all other, will be widely available on many reliable torrent services that are a mere VPN end point away. There is no reason or circumstance in which to give Apple money. This is a statement that I provide without qualification. 

There’s a whole manosphere of misogynist critics/vloggers with a spectacular hate-on for a small number of women involved in big-name franchises, especially the MCU, Star Wars and Star Trek. Brie Larson and projects related to her work with the MCU are absolutely front and center in this. 

The product you’re looking for is called a Commercial Display. They don’t connect to the internet, but they also lag in other useful features like high refresh rates and HDR. 

Tron 2 wasn’t particularly created to be a tie-in to the movie that was released in 1982. It’s not even tied in to Tron Legacy or the cartoon series. It’s still based on Tron, but it is also a discrete product that was made decades after the first movie.

SOMEbody clearly never played any of the Tron tie-in games. There were two stand-up arcade titles and there were also three games for the Intellivision. Given the capabilities of the day, they were all fantastic.

I remember paying $1.50/booster and $7.50 or maybe $8 for a starter box in 1993. I was the only person buying Magic cards at my local store until about the time Legends released and the only reason I got into them was that I was a fan of a lot of other fantasy art trading cards. I stopped playing around the time I…

I’m an IT guy (not a gamer) whose social circle includes a lot of Tampa area strippers.

I started using Amazon Drop-Ins for telepresence during the pandemic. My best friend/long-time roommate had an Echo Show on the left side of her couch. I had one on the right side of mine, our designated places-to-be when she lived with me. We’d just leave the drop-in open all day and do our respective work from home…

There’s a big difference between spending hours messing with settings and realizing that there are things you’re absolutely prohibited from doing because of arbitrary bullshit rules. For example, you cannot download an MP3 file to an iOS device via Safari. You can’t. The end. You say “Well, I really haven’t thought…

But now you know, and you can tell them.
