My Pixel 8 Pro, keys, wallet, and usually my Pixel Buds just in case I want to listen to music.

Hanging out with family on Saturdays every week. On Sundays, I usually chill at home playing games and chatting on Guilded (and sometimes Discord) and whatnot.

Single-player story games, if the story is well written. Otherwise, I prefer co-op games like Monster Hunter, etc. I'm an extremely chill and laid-back gamer. I don't play PVP too much. There's only 1 game I play that is PVP currently, and that's Gigantic (I have a thread on it here with the trailer and whatnot).

I wouldn't consider myself an expert or master at it, but I'm pretty good at the Monster Hunter franchise. With Lance, I almost never die. Though, it does have basically the best blocking out of all weapons currently.

I'm on a shared plan with 1 other person. We split 12gb of data between us, and I think for each of us its in the 30/mo range. Unlimited talk and text, but 12gb data. It's enough 99% of the time, since I download music and movies onto my phone at home to watch on the go.

The Pixel series (and Nexus previously) is technically the "Apple" version of the Android world. Google manages the OS, and they make the phones. So in a sense, I guess you can compare them to the iPhone. Which of these two phones do you prefer? Me? I prefer Pixel, since I've been using Android since 2.3 (December 2010), so I have hundreds of dollars of paid apps I'd rather not lose access too! I don't mind using an iPhone temporarily from a friend, but I wouldn't want it to be my daily driver due to losing lots of paid apps.

I would have to say for single-player games, my favorite character would be Aloy, from Horizon Zero Dawn. Because Horizon Zero Dawn & Forbidden West have dinosaurs, it is of course among my favorite game franchises. I can't wait for the third game to eventually come out!

This is the revival of a MOBA/Hero Shooter combined PVP game. What are your thoughts on it? Original was F2P, but they didn't make enough funding, so they had to shut down. This revival is a $20 one-time fee with no microtransactions. Original game had 23 characters, they finished up 2 that were almost done and there is now 25 in the revival, along with 2 new maps. My favorite characters are Roland (one of the new ones) and Margrave for the tank role. I haven't picked a support, since usually selecting those two is enough for me to get into matches.

Custom build. Over $2000 USD, but then again, I have high end components like a 3070 TI, a Ryzen 7 5800x, and 64gb ram. Overboard? Yea. But useful for streaming & stuff.

Depends on the game. Some games with little to no BG music I'll just turn music off and listen to my own, or if the soundtrack is "meh" as well. If they have a great soundtrack, I'll use in-game instead. For example, the Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West series.

I use Corsair mice pretty much exclusively. Same with Elgato & Corsair components where they make them. I've had bad experiences, multiple times, with Razer so I do not buy their stuff ever anymore. Logitech is fine, but I prefer the integrations with streamdeck with Elgato's stuff.

Yea, I usually keep 2 backups of important data, and 1 backup of semi-important data. One local to a separate drive, one cloud, for important stuff, and just cloud for semi-important. It's nice that G Workspace allows me to have 2TB of space, which helps with that.

They won't stop. Not unless they make a multiple models that basically get zero sales, then maybe? Highly unlikely, though. I mean, you can connect a KB/M to the 5, I think, and some games support it. Just need more games to support the alternate input for KB/M and then it could become an an easy to maintain alternative to a PC for less tech-savvy people.

If you consider Chuck a sitcom, that'd be my favorite. It's like a spy show, and comedy, combined into one. Went off the air a long time ago but is defiantly worth watching:

Light popcorn (i only eat a few bites usually) and Raisinettes. Though all the theaters in my area stopped selling it. 😞
