Plus, you can set the speed to 1.5x and catch up to live, if you want.

I guess with all things, depends on the financial position of the customer.

If you’re stretching yourself to get any phone, then yeah, diminishing returns for forking out $800+ for a flagship.

That being said I’ve owned multiple phones in each price category, and can say that the best phones are unfortunately among the most expensive.

My dad had the T-Mobile G1; if I recall, first ever commercial available Android phone!

That was handed down to me after a couple years. It has as much chill factor as it did nerd factor. People laughed and were amazed at the same time. I loved it, lol

I’ve had the original Pixel, the Pixel 4a 5G, and the Pixel 7a.

The only reason I ditched my 4a 5G was because my cell service seemed to be degrading (which was odd, because it was 5g).

Now that I have the 7a, I can honestly say I’m disappointed in its battery life. My 4a 5G could last 36 hours on a charge, even 3 years into ownership. My 7a seems to get down to 15% consistently by the time I get to bed each day.

I’m newish to the RPG scene, mainly played 5e and recently pathfinder. Also watch Critical Role. That being said, they featured a new system recently called Candela Obscura. I’m sure it’s based on pre-existing systems, but I’m too new to know what those might be. . The system is designed for a kind of Lovecraftian Horror aesthetic, however its systems feel like they could be transplanted into a TV drama with some work.

Here’s a real quick gist:

• How practiced you are in each skill tells you how many D6’s you get to roll for skill checks
• The highest die determines the result of your skill check:
  • 1-3 = fail
  • 4-5 = mixed success
  • 6 = full success
  • multiple 6’s = critical success
• You have a number of extra dice you can expend, an there’s a mechanic to recharge those
• Throughout a campaign the player can claim they possess an item that will help them in their scenario. The don’t need to have said up front that they have it, they can just Deus Ex Machina it so long as the GM accepts the explanation for how their character has it. They can do this 3 times by default.

FYI to any GM who wants the best of both worlds; fudge the DC and roll out in the open. BBEG normally has a +9 to attack? Well, now he has a +2.

Still won’t save people from any super high rolls, but at least you can (secretly) decrease the risk while keeping tensions and attentions high.

Windows 10 as long as possible. I think my hardware may support Windows 11, but there’s no benefit to me upgrading until I need to.

I was genuinely taken aback by when on the Nat 1 deception from major illusion. I knew something was up, but when his body started contorting like a GMod machinima, I freaking lost it!
