thank you for being a part of this community :D
reading things like this always makes me smile. people that come to this site to learn or better understand things about gaming, and then go on to work on projects, while still coming back to gbatemp to check in. it really is the best kind of...
I love the picture quality on my TV, it has 120hz support, it's a great TV overall. But oh my gosh it can't disable voice commands and it will CONSTANTLY turn on, thinking it hears, "hey Google" when someone instead said, "orange".
in 2015, i remember my friend group all ditching skype, because microsoft is scum and trying to move to a cooler indie program where they werent a mega corp selling your info and stealing your data. discord was cool, innovative, and seemed like a solid alternative. 7 years on, now it has become...
I appreciate your documenting of the process! The improvements really are wow-worthy. I don't really know anything about Gothic, but it was fun to read this entry about how you made it look so much better
The past week, I've been offline for the most part--that's because one of my cats was diagnosed with FIP. It's a cruel, cruel virus--considered to be fatal, no matter what. At least, that's what the general consensus is. Unlike Tuxy, who had cat parvo, and had a chance, albeit slim, to recover...
You sound fairly young. This is all just a learning experience that most people go through. Cringe things or awkward moments. People involved likely aren't going to remember this in a week or two. The former friend sounds like a creep though, good you got out of dealing with him
I keep everything muted at all times. I get way too many alerts to keep it on, id go crazy from the noise of group chats and DMs and news alerts. Only time notification noises are turned on are when I know I won't be close to my phone and am expecting something important to come in. It's in my...
Not to sound old, but I'm very glad I got through school before phones were as integral as they are today. I remember getting a flip phone in 8th grade and being told it was for emergency only. iPhones were just picking up steam as I was leaving high school. Not that I think school (in America)...
I played Undertale at launch. Deltarune chapter 1 as well. Idk what I’d think about it with the hype they’ve garnered. I think they were both cute indie games. Fun meta jokes, a good twist with a weird creep factor, and some real good tunes. Dunno if they’re worth the mad hype, but they’re...
Thank you! I appreciate all the advice!
The doctors said it's looking at about 6 months or so, yeah. He says he's found it difficult to recall some words in English, and when I picked him up from the hospital, he was mostly talking in Farsi with my uncle, because he found it easier to do...
My dad has been back home for a day now, and while his insurance wasn't able to cover physical rehabilitation, he's doing a lot better than the doctors expected. To the point of them being utterly surprised at how well he's recovered.
He's not out of the danger zone though. He still can't walk...
He'll be in physical therapy for the next day or two, after a recommendation from the neurology team. They want to keep him for just a bit longer to see how he responds to motor function tests and the blood thinner he's on.
He tried to trade his cell phone to the doctor for a pack of cigs. The...
The MRI results came back. He suffered a stroke--they called it an acute occlusion on the right side of his brain. They're keeping him yet another night, to keep watch over him and make sure there's no further complications. No brain bleeding or anything, and the doctor says while it's very bad...
Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)
I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
@BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
