    I thought they would drag this out but nope, guess we're doin' this. Get ready for some real brutal stuff.

    As long as they stick to the 1-hour real time, I think I'll stick with The Pitt. I did finish the season and it was quite good. If they get around to making season 2, it's supposed to take place during the July 4th holiday (which is on a Friday in 2025). Gotta love humans playing with explosives combined with drinking and summer heat. My one request for a season 2 is more Night-shift. Maybe start the season on the middle or coming off the night-shift. The combination of Shen-Abbott-Ellis-Walsh was probably one of the best parts heading into the tail end of the season. Also cuz, as the saying goes, nothing good happens after 2AM. Also with July 4 falling on a Friday in 2025, you know people are going to set off fireworks in the dead of night. Really, I want more night-shift next season.

    This Silver Surfer is Shalla-Bal (the male Silver Surfer’s lover in the comics). Essentially, multiverse shenanigans. Seeing that’s how Silver Surfer is portrayed in the comics, I’m not sure how else you can portray someone that looks like liquid metal Terminator.

    Hi, please reduce the size or your pictures per the rules: === ). Maximum uploads of 3 pictures of a toy even if you bought two. That means if you bought DC Batman you can post a combination of boxed and opened pics of up to three here. Anymore than three will get the post deleted. If you bought another copy of the same DC Batman toy that does not constitute as a different toy and does not earn you three new photos. The moderation team considers that spamming and will be deleted. Text link to an external photo gallery if you have more than three pictures to share. 2). Image size: Height maximum per toy will now be set to 2400pixels for 3 pictures combined. That means one high resolution picture at 2400pixels or three decent resolution picture of 800pixels each.

    Wait for the day you have to deal with their warranty service. 🤣 They never said the slots weren't already occupied, just that it had 3 M.2 slots and 2 bays. SI doesn't provide additional mounting hardware for expansion. Why am I not shocked?

    'Already mentioned he doesn't have a Costco near him. 'Doesn't make sense to buy a membership you will never be able to take advantage of. Trust me, there's more to Costco than a lone computer. Much much more. I'm gonna agree with this. Seeing that Nintendo is delaying preorders on Switch 2s and now Razer is delaying/halting US laptop sales, I'd probably reconsider any laptop purchases unless I know it's actually coming at the price they announced. Unfortunately, current desktop hardware supplies are dwindling and any incoming new stock coming in will likely see price increases. I've been keeping an eye on some things in the pipeline and they all saw a price increase in the past week.

    For this deal, no. But if you don't have a Costco membership, there is a 5% surcharge on all purchases. So this deal is $2400+5% for non-members.

    Think you mean the AT-RT from Clone Wars. Dogs have much more intimidation factor than a ATV with legs. Nothing like a 60-80lb animal sprinting at you at 30 mph who could tear your arm off. For outdoor recreational use, it's the same as taking an ATV with you. You have to conserve energy to make it back to the home base so unless that thing is solar powered, which still wouldn't collect enough energy to keep something like that charged, it's not practical except for day-tripping. Going all-terrain with something like this feels like you should be going more than an overnight trip and I don't think it has enough fuel/battery power to go that long.

    While not a dog owner, I have babysat and played with dogs who act exactly like Krypto. I’ve seen the “OMG! HI!”, as they put their full weight on you, the “ ‘Sup”, sniff you and walk away, to the “Who the eeeffff are you!!!!” with barking all the way. Krypto reminds me of a couple of dogs. And dogs do realize when you’re acting differently.

    Also FYI, for USA buyers, the $449 base console price is not adjusted for tariffs. Me? Maybe pushing this purchase to Black Friday...2026.

    🤨 That's not quite how it works. The SoC can output to 4k even if it wasn't docked. The reason the onboard display isn't 4k is because rendering on a 4k 8" display is stupidly small at native resolution. A 4k 8" display has a 550-ish PPI. Even if you drop the resolution to 1080p, you still have to use each of those 8.3M pixels. An 8" 1080p screen has ~279 PPI, which would be very crisp at that size. On top of that, it's refreshing the screen at 120Hz. That's the best we should do for that size of a screen. Yes, driving 4k on such a small device uses a lot of power, but it's also a waste of power because you can't read anything that small. You have to drop the resolution, which would be a waste of a 4k screen.

    Anyone who's had a dog or played with a dog...will recognize Krypto. Even a small 10-15lb dog jumping on you with all their weight concentrated on those little legs knows.

    SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) has been the model for of the tech industry for a while. Gaming has been the one area that's been lagging behind on it.

    Here's the TLDR version of this morning's live stream: As well as the full specs page. I wanna see a teardown of this. Leaks say the CPU is based off the "Orin"-SoC, which is based off Ampere (that's the RTX 30-series generation). *almost spit takes coffee* Yeah, I'll wait for Black Friday or the holiday season to grab one. You early adopters can bug test this.
