    Switch to Stremio (with Torrentio) and never worry about running out of storage space again. Everything is streamed directly to your TV, no downloading necessary. Browse like it’s Netflix and just pick something then watch it. Plus there’s support for home theater enthusiasts with features like HDR, Dolby Atmos, 4K, etc.











  • How old were you at the time? 'Cause I was in my teens and they looked like PS2 graphics to me back then (which was last gen at the time). The low 272p resolution of the screen surely didn’t help, either. It was barely an improvement over the DS’s 240p screens, bad enough that it was difficult to see objects in the distance in most 3D titles.

    That was part of the reason why I used my PSP mainly as a portable emulation machine. Most of what I played on it were SNES and PS1 games, which looked fine on the screen because they were designed for low resolution 480i CRTs from the beginning. (I played handful of N64 games too but the emulation wasn’t as good then. I sold my PSP before most N64 games were playable.)

    I’m glad that most mobile screens are 1080p minimum these days, cause god those were some dark times. I remember that my persistence of vision would leave a pixel grid in my field of view if I stared at a screen for too long back in those days lol



  • If they’re anything like the Verizon 5G gateways in the US that go in the window, then yes they’re great. So long as they use mmWave ultra wideband, and you have direct line of sight to the tower, they’re as good as a wired connection IMO. I get 1400Mbps both ways; literally maxes out my gigabit lines and I have to use wifi to hit those speeds. Latency is good enough to play competitive shooters too. I absolutely love it. And for only $50/mo it’s literally twice as fast as cable for half the price.





  • How the fuck is he 19 already? He hadn’t even hit puberty yet last time I checked.

    Why did time just start flying by after COVID started, and never slowed back down? I’m only in my 30s, but I feel like my life is already more than halfway over. My body feels the same too. The first 30 years of my life lasted forever, but ever since lockdown, a year now feels like a month. Hell, my 30s barely started, and now they’re almost over already, after what feels like less than a year of being 30.

    I mean I’m just now starting my life. Finally got a decent job and a house after years of trying, and I already feel too old to accomplish anything more. This is bullshit.
