Started red dead redemption, I wanted to play something on the TV with a controller, so far it’s pretty good but I’m having a hard time with the controller haha
Plus if you drop anything in the bathroom and the lid is up it’s ending up in the toilet, learned that one morning when I was about to brush my teeth, that’s when I became a dedicated kid closer
After repeated data breaches that no company really seems to give a s— about my phone is blowing up with literally hundreds of spam calls and texts month. I get and make MAAAAYBE 2 or 3 important calls per month, 180-200 of the rest are literally all spam. Anyone have any suggestions, apps ect that they have found refuge with?...
Most of the people calling you are scammers pretending to be political or charity campaigns using sketchy urls each time asking for money so I doubt they care about breaking the law more than they already are
My phone app does a good job of labeling suspected spam calls and texts so I just set it to auto ignore all those and that’s been pretty good so far, but I’m just using the default phone app on samsung,
when I had pixel the Google phone app was nice because it would auto answer if it was maybe a real number and only ring once they said why they were calling so if it wasnt important they would just hangup without you being bugged
It’s crazy how actually caring about the source makes things so much better, they did a great job with the Terminator game so I imagine a lot of those fans also like RoboCop and are excited by the same team making it and putting so much effort into the nostalgia and story
If you liked the movies it’s good, my brother is a huge fan boy and is always talking about it, how it incorporated the movies and let’s you play as the Terminator storming the human base. But if you’re not that into the Terminator then as a game I’m not sure how it compares to other games
My wife works in a highschool and feels like you do, not so much fake but addicted and you have to put on a facade like if you are walking to class alone you should be on your phone pretending to be messaging someone or else you’ll feel awkward
Nowadays I find a lot of games feel like too much work and/or anxiety when I just want to relax for like, 30 minutes to an hour after a long day. On the other hand, the games specifically designed to help you unwind just feel boring imo....
I started watching the Netflix original “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off”. I already had high expectations for it, but they were far exceeded. The animation is truly amazing, think if Spider-Verse was 2D. Not to mention the characters, writing, and music. I’m only partway through the third episode, but I’m already waiting for a...
I assume there are people who read these things, otherwise companies wouldn’t send me so many of them. I seem to get daily spam from literally any company I’ve ever interacted with in any way, and they are long boys full of text and pictures that Thunderbird helpfully hides from me but I presume are full of jagged brightly...
I do daily, get my coffee and read my emails, of it’s something no I dont want I unsub, otherwise I mark it as read and archive it, takes a few minutes, at work we use email a lot it’s just easier than dealing with teams search, otherwise if it’s just our team we use JIRA
