Well that's just incredible. I love it. Thanks again for your hard work!

Slap a Redmi logo on the back instead and I wouldn't even question it.

Not entirely sure what the new frontend is going to bring to the table, but visually I'm way more into the current look. I'm an eye-candy kind of guy.

Thanks for all the hard work, behind the scenes!

Ultimately they're going to be chasing the dollar. No matter how much some of us love small phones, they just don't sell that well. Better for Asus to survive and change the recipe than die on that (small) hill.

On the other hand, if there's an Ultra, maybe there's also a [Regular] Zenfone coming

Why would EU ever do that?

I'm in the exact same position and if there are no compelling Black Friday deals for the S23, I'm probably gonna hold on another year. Or I'm gonna go back to OnePlus.

B-but think of the shareholders!

TL;DR - You have to install a malicious app that pretends to be something else, then the app will try trick you into installing another APK (to which you have to specifically agree), and then your phone gets malware.

I mean, I'm not saying it's pointless, because even of it's to send a message, sanctions are worth it. Sanctions are also clearly destroying the rubble. It's a huge blow to Russia. But until there's a huge blow to PUTIN, not much is going to change. This bitch is never gonna go hungry, never gonna feel cold, never gonna have to budget between a better insurance plan or a bigger place to live. His astronomical savings are untouchable. If these were ever at risk, then itdtbe a blow to him. What's one less yacht?

Red Dead Redemption 2. Trying not to rush through the story and just explore. Can't get enough of this game.

If you were to go see this in a store and pick it up so you know what the first thing you'd notice is? The 21:9 form factor [...] Yet bone of these guys ever mention this.

I can't recall a video from MKBHD of Mr Mobile etc about an Xperia phone where there wasn't mention of this unique aspect ratio. Maybe you watch the wrong videos?

This reviewer says the screen is poor because on the extreme angle it colour shifts. That's pure BS! Until you've done some objective scientific tests to determine the display quality, you can't say it's poor quality.

Have YOU done "some objective scientific tests to determine the display quality"? Because if not, how can you be so sure this person's claims are bullshit? At least they have the phone in their hand.

No iPhone clones here. Sony has it's own design language which no one else has.

Really, no one else has their own design language? Have you seen Pixels? Nothing Phones? ASUS ROG?

Go ask your mom

Those are the ones you see. How do you tell a Ukrainian from your own countrymen on a bus? They're not all rich, they're not all assholes, they are where they are because they wanted to stay alive. And so would you if you were in their shoes, you dense fuck.

Un-clickbait:

It's about 120hz displays. How it should be the norm in the entire lineup, but isn't because most likely people don't care.

Dedicated PC room considered harmful. Be part of your family even if you're ignoring them with your headphones on. Put in the work and manage your cables so the setup looks presentable. Get a nice looking chair and not a Gamer Chair. Get furniture.

You just made me realize something. Before I moved out I had my PC in my room and I'd spend an unhealthy amount of time there. After I moved to live with my girlfriend, I had no option for a room where I would be isolated with my PC. So it's in a shared space, I can game just as comfortably, but the fact that I'm not isolated makes me pause the game every so often and just talk to my girlfriend.

I don't game that much anyway these days, not addicted or anything, but even when I do immerse myself, there's always this impulse to take a break and socialize.

I've manually cranked up all of those fans to 100%, separately and in conjunction. I don't understand what's so unbelievable about a faulty fan bearing in a PSU

It truly is the fan in the PSU. I may not be pulling all 500W at once, but that fan is struggling. I swapped my fans to sub-30 db fans thinking that was the culprit. It's not. It's not the HDD either. I literally took the side panel off and stuck my ear near every potential noise source. Believe me, it's the PSU.

It's a low end model, it's old, it could simply be a dying bearing. Whatever the case may be, it's dying, and I'm not about to disassemble a PSU to swap a fan and kill myself in the process lmao.

It looks like a malformed Urus. Out of proportion.

Porsche did it right with Taycan, it's an elongated 911 (or a modified Panamera which is an elongated 911).

Lamborghini cut the height of the Urus instead of adding length to a Huracan.

Thanks for pointing out underusing the PSU. I actually went ahead and checked clearesult's test report, and assuming I'd be pulling 200W most of the time (pulling this out of my ass), efficiency for that load is 91.05%. Pulling 500W in a long, demanding gaming session with this PSU means efficiency of 91.2%, a negligible difference.

A 650W variant costs 111€. 750W is 125€. 850W is 135€, the same as 1000W with current discount.

I'd be happy to go for a cheaper 850W PSU, but this is kinda the best deal right now for me.

To be clear. I'm not hell-bent on that 1000W PSU. I'm happy with a different option, but price to wattage ratio leans me to that choice.
