To me they are social media.
You can also follow topics/communities on other platforms, and on Reddit you can follow people/accounts.
There's not much difference.
Looks like Marathon 2 and Marathon Infinity are making their way to Steam for free too. All 3 are Aleph One.

It can and most likely will. Why MKBHD did not consider that puzzles me.
Interesting. Did a reviewer mention this or were you able to try the device yourself?
I'm one of the few who has had zero issues with the 6a fingerprint sensor. Sure it's a little slower but it works accurately for me.
Gift article I found online.
The part that interests me is this:
Jill Braff, head of ZeniMax studios, said in the town hall that she hoped the reorganization would allow the division, which also develops Fallout and Doom, to put more focus on fewer projects. “It’s hard to support nine studios all across the world with a lean central team with an ever-growing plate of things to do,”
Why gobble up so many studios to consolidate into a gaming megacorp, then get gobbled up yourself by Microsoft? What's the purpose of acquiring so many studios and holding onto so much IP if you can't handle them?
Xbox is offering voluntary severance agreements to producers, quality assurance testers and other staff at ZeniMax as part of a broader cost-cutting initiative
> Others across the Xbox organization have been told that more cuts are on the way.
“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem,”
“If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.”
Indeed. This is RAM and replaces SODIMM.
MKBHD says to get the 8 over the 8a but I disagree. The improvements are marginal. Unless you really need wireless power sharing, the 8a offers pretty much everything the 8 does if slightly slower.
Best Buy gift card + trade-in or waiting till a price drop make it more enticing than paying $500 for the Pixel 8.
I'm plenty happy with my 6a so I'm going to hold onto it.
Things I like:
- Brighter screen and now upto 120 Hz
- 256 GB option, weirdly for the obsidian color only. Aloe and bay are nicer! (Also annoying how Google phones don't have microSD card slots because they offer Google Drive. smh this company)
- Will get Gemini Nano for on-device AI
- 7 years of OS updates
Rest is pretty much the same.
Google Store, Amazon and Best Buy are offering a $100 gift card for pre-ordering. Best Buy and Google Store are accepting trade-ins - you'll have to compare to see which one is offering the most value for your phone. Best Buy gift card will be more useful than a Google Store gift card though.
If you can wait half a year or so, it should drop to about $375 like the previous A phones have, making it a solid bang for your buck.
In a somewhat unexpected move, Google is announcing the Pixel 8a today ahead of I/O 2024 with the $499 mid-ranger launching on...
> The Google Pixel 8a starts at $499 for 128 GB and $559 for 256 GB (Obsidian only)
Would've appreciated it yesterday when I went grocery shopping.
Noticed a few weeks ago they raised prices by 40-50 cents on certain items, then "discount" them by 10-25 cents to make them seem cheaper.
I have a list on my notes app with prices per pound/oz. You can't fool me, Aldi.
Earlier this week, the company detailed how the "Google Fit APIs have been deprecated" and that the shutdown is set for June 30, 2025.
> Google’s migration guide for developers lists what they’re supposed to switch to on Android phones and Wear OS. However, there is no replacement for the Goals API that lets Google Fit users set “how many steps and heart points they want to aim for each day.”
Carlos Sainz has been issued with a five-second time penalty – along with one penalty point on his licence – after being deemed to have caused a collision with Oscar Piastri during the Miami Grand Prix.
> Sainz had originally crossed the line in fourth, but the penalty will drop him down to fifth, subsequently promoting Sergio Perez up into P4.
Super happy for Norris. Was emotional seeing the celebrations within McLaren.
Piastri did great and was my DotD. Unfortunate about his incident with Sainz. It's going to be reviewed so let's see if there's a penalty for Sainz.
Tsunoda flying under the radar yet again and scoring points.
Congrats to Alpine for finally scoring a point.
UPDATE: De Heus got a 5s time penalty, promoting Lia Block to 10th place.
New race result:
KMag picking up penalties after penalties. Man speedrunning to a race ban.
Poor Williams just can't seem to catch a clean weekend.
hit cone
bring out VSC
get a cheap pit stop
Max wasn't able to get the cheap pit stop though.
Another 1.9s pitstop by Red Bull.
This team is just next level.
Edit: Wow Ferrari too.
Perez noted for false start. Nearly took out Max on T1.
