The fan on my One S is much quieter than my computer, 360, and PS3.

Quite like having MS stores around and the ability to swap gear out. I was able to have mine swapped out at the local one under warranty. It was a bit loud in there and the first gal didn't hear anything, had someone else come over and they confirmed it. So yeah, that's my story :shrug:

-edit oh yeah and the new Xbox one s doesn't make that noise so far so 🤷🏽‍♀️

Yo Casimir, what's the word on that abscess?
They didn't think it was a pilonidal cyst, they put it down as a sebaceous cyst. They gave me a week of cephAlexin and said to get in touch with a primary care physician to get it taken care of if it didn't start shrinking. It's a deep one so they didn't think urgent care was the best place to get it taken care of if that's what it comes to.

I had to watch that video twice just to absorb it all. The price tag makes sense now, the question is why the hell they did what they did. I just can't wrap my mind around it. Every time he unveils a new part I had to pause it just to go "what the gently caress?!"

The amount of precision CNC work on that loving thing is ridiculous. All it does is squeeze a loving packet, you could've cast half the loving thing in plastic. I guess they actually believed in their squeeze machine.

I had the opportunity to change literally anything about the world and I used it to get a new av
The battery on my iPhone 6 was swelling up, enough to warp the screen and it looked like it was about to burst or explode or something. It was out of warranty so instead of being free, Apple gave me a brand new (not refurb) iPhone 6 for $80 which is the cost of the battery. I couldn't be happier since my nearly 3 year old phone needed to be replaced and I was dreading having to pay full price for something since no carrier subsidizes phones anymore. And the 6s & 7 don't seem to add anything that's worth the upgrade cost to me anyway.

So yea that's my story. If something looks like it could be wrong with your battery, like the phone is getting thick at the upper left portion of the screen go get that poo poo taken care of.

Well The Handmaid's Tale has a death scene that ranks high on the list of awful tv deaths.

It's not gory or even drawn out. poo poo just loving happens to make another character break.


Nothing is going to top Breaking Bad with the bike dismemberment scene and than one in season 5 I'd rather not spoil.

I watched like the first half of the first episode and couldn't get over how heavy handed everything was. Is that persistent throughout the whole series? The main character musing about how poo poo sucks compared to the past for no reason ad-nauseum wore pretty thin pretty quick

Yea that's how the show is. It doesn't ease up in style. You're not entirely wrong. I'm three episodes in and the heavy-handedness gets old.

Yeah, my SO watched the first two and I asked her what she thought, her summation was "It's like someone obsessed with Jane Austin tried to write a Hunger Games prequel"

Ever since I got her in to Red Letter Media she's been savage in how she describes movies and TV

Nope.

But you used to could get your GED at 16 in Tennessee. And college lit classes don't always glaze over all the dystopian poo poo.

Guess where I got my GED and college lit classes knocked out.
