If anything that’s nonsense, iPhones are cheaper and easier to get repaired and far less to failure and I say this as someone who runs a store that sells phones.
- Comment on Google kills two-year “Pixel Pass” subscription after just 22 months 1 year ago:
Because the phones just fucking work
- Comment on Coming to you soon... 1 year ago:
Honestly I bought YouTube premium through a VPN to turkey for that price for the entire year. Seems worth it.
- Comment on Gamers nexus on LTT 1 year ago:
I don’t think the size difference works in the favour of lmg.
If gamers nexus puts out pretty much industry leading day one reviews out on every launch with 5-6 people and LMG with labs and 100+ employees can’t then there’s something wrong.
GN has a point LMG shits out videos without QC and it’s starting to bite them of late. The water block review is the perfect example of just being stupid. Why not just test the item with the right product and judge it for what it is as opposed to turning it into a joke review where no matter what the product is going to look bad.
The short circuit thing with the mouse is also a bit ridiculous.
But the charts are the main thing, I’ve noticed it myself over the years that lmg charts made no sense relative to gamers nexus or HUb or even jayz 2 cents which meant something was wrong with the testing.

Yeah Steve steve and Wendell would be an amazing trio, Gordon is also really good but he can be a bit rage heavy for me

On the whole a solid episode and the Scott appearance was very surprising and well done.
However why the hell is Christine the only survivor on the cayuga, it makes no sense at all.
Also the fucking cliffhanger is ridiculous
- Comment on What are the best customizable routers nowadays? 1 year ago:
If you have a pi kicking around or a docker instance of pihole you can use it to take over dhcp of the router and then set the dns servers in pihole.
That’s what I do currently on my home hub

Agreed, I didn’t mind Kirk being in A Quality of Mercy or Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow. However, him being in this episode just felt he was in it for the sake of it.

Every time I see someone write that new star trek has something against white males I already know you can’t be taken seriously.
Did you know that discovery has had more white male characters than DS9?
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 2x07 "Those Old Scientists" 1 year ago:
This episode is one of the best episodes in the modern era of Trek, it’s lighthearted it’s funny it celebrates Trek and it’s done so tastefully that I genuinely have nothing bad to say about it.
Plus that line at the end where they tell Una ad astra per aspera and that’s why boimler joined Starfleet is just the right kind of emotions.
Honestly, they smashed it in this episode and ofc the 2d animated intro was chefs kiss.
- Comment on Star Trek: Discovery | Fifth and Final Season - Extended Clip | SDCC 2023 1 year ago:
The scene while nonsensical in terms of what we’ve established in Trek Science is at least visually cool and fun.
I’ll check out the season when it airs, I just hope it is better than I expect.
- Comment on Has anyone tried one of these Steam Deck alternatives like ROG Ally, GPD, OneXPlayer etc? I'm kinda keen on this Ayaneo Geek 1S 1 year ago:
I had an Aya Neo 2 at work the other day so here’s my brief take on it from an experience perspective.
All the other hand held PC’s that aren’t the steamdeck are just that, hand held PC’s. When you reset or reinstall windows you have no drivers have to plug in a keyboard and mouse to get a driver package of about 19 different things before it’s usable then you need to install Aya Neo Space and have that auto launch at startup so that you somewhat get a hand held console experience.
The deck by contrast is just a single recovery image that is good to go and just works.
So I’d say if you want something that just works well buy a steamdeck while it may have less games than the others it truly is a pick up and play experience, if you want to tinker look into the others however I’d suggest you avoid the Ally due to the melting SD card issue for now.

Look into an SE version 2, those aren’t half bad either if you’re trying to save a bit of money.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x06 "Lost In Translation" 1 year ago:
Overall a solid episode, a little different but ultimate felt very core Star Trek TOS with strange alien life and coming to a resolution.
Paul Wesley continues to impress me in the role of James T Kirk but his character did not need to be in this episode, they need to be careful with how they use him going forward.
