@Nzall it became relevant with ddr4 and it's even more relevant for integrated graphics. Their laptop doesn't have integrated graphics though so it shouldn't make a huge difference in performance though

@SaintWacko thank you for the suggestion! That is not it, the graphics of the game looked significantly better (in my recollection, but that may be bias). More importantly, the planes of the game were flat, no sloped floors. One would always see the hovercraft from the same position, a bit of a helicopter view, and rotating the craft would not rotate the view. The thrusters in the back are a bit the same, even though the ones I refer to were fire-ey/redyellow, ship had a similar look though.

I really do hate this game sometimes lol
@Wipqozn Someone in a discord I'm in just had a 71 day streak broken
Yep, I lost today's
Mind you, I probably could have made some better guesses. But there's 8 possible words and I had eliminated 2 of them with my first 2 guesses.
ave
ave
12:48
adieu/sport/fling-flung paid off in my case, got it on 4
I've been using stare/fling/ducky/whomp which is 20 different letters in 4 words.
If you even need to go that far in, you still have 2 guesses with massive information.
I got today's in 3.
ave
ave
adieu/sport mostly tries to get rid of vowels
@InvaderSkoodge the problem is some people use Hardmode, which makes strategies like this unusable
Hard mode is lame.
13:22
I'm still using arose/unity, which hits every vowel and most of RSTLNE

Okay, I just bought a new iPhone SE
17:56
@Nzall Oh, I'm glad they're making another! The kids were going to need new phones before too long, and I was dreading having to pay normal iPhone prices
@SaintWacko it's out since last Friday
or even the one before that
529 EUR for a 64 GB model
I don't pay much attention to Apple stuff lol

Holy hell the Apex international tournament incoming will be A LOT of games.

Day 1: each team plays 18 games. So like 36 lobbies (4 groups of 10 play eachother 6 times)
Day 2: Double elim bracket. Basically Best 20 in groups play 6 times. Worst 20 play 6 times. Top 10 best go to finals. Bot 10 best go to round 2. Top 10 worse go to round 2, bot 10 worse go to round 2. That round 2 is also 6 matches. So 18 lobbies
Day 3 is easier on casters. Finals on match point format, should be about 6-7 games
But basically in 3 days its 60 games of apex
Winners will have played about 30-40 games in the weekend
Guess the first day will have 2 streams at the same time
but holy hell the casters will have long days

@Fredy31 jeez
i guess battle royales would have to have a different tourney structure since it's a 20 teams free-for-all
instead of just 1v1
20:35
@Yuuki I remember this video
I'm more impressed someone actually took the time to lure a Yiga all that way
Well, idk who found this format but for a tournament with a BR I think its pretty neat.

Basically you get points for placement and kills. But to win it all you need to get to a minimum threshhold (50 points, first teams to reach it will do in about 3 games) and then, you need to win a game to win the tournament. 2 to 20 placements are on those points
So basically even if you have a great match 1-2-3, you can't just cruise by and win the tournament. You need to get a win to win it all
Google Inbox 2 exists now btw shortwave.com
free is only 3 months history on here but you can always just go to mail.google for those, or $9 per month
seems good so far

twitter misidentification is both unfortunate and hilarious
