Wireless charging pad. Yes, it’s less efficient than wired charging, but it’s just so convenient.

So I had a Z1 and Z2, and the Galaxy was an S8+. To be honest, I don’t remember much about them, but overall I think I’d rate the Xperias higher than the Galaxy simply because I don’t remember ever being annoyed with them. They were just reasonable, good phones that didn’t try to do anything crazy.

My two major gripes with the Galaxy were:

• There was a HUGE physical button that would activate the Bixby voice assistant thingy so I’d often press it by accident. The button could only disabled in the Bixby app… which required a Samsung account. So I had to create an account just so I could go into the settings and flip a switch to disable that stupid button, and then never use the app or account again.

• The fingerprint reader was totally useless. It was so small that it wouldn’t work unless I hit it just right, and it was placed on the back of the phone right next to the camera so it was basically impossible to hit reliably, and chances are I’d accidentally get fingerprints on the camera instead. It was even worse with a protective case on because the reader was recessed inside the hole for the camera.

The one thing I really liked about the Galaxy was the always on display. It was nice being able to check the time in the dark without lighting up the entire screen and blinding myself. For my next phone, I’ll probably get something that has that feature.

For fun. My last iPhone was a 4S, and after that I had a couple Sony Xperias and a Samsung Galaxy. When it was time to upgrade, I decided to get an iPhone 11 for a change, for no other reason than to see what they’re like nowadays.

I’ve been really happy with it, it does everything I need it to do, and I don’t miss the Galaxy at all.

Robot Arena 2 (2003). I had so much fun with that game as a kid. A reboot with modern physics and graphics would be awesome.

But then you have the same problem all over again, just at a different scale. If multiple people create those feeds according to their personal tastes, how do you decide which one to use? It’s unlikely that any of them offer the content you want and nothing more, so you’d still have to tweak them to add the stuff that’s missing or remove the stuff you don’t care about. Yes, technically it’s an improvement because you no longer need to do all the work yourself, but it would still suck.

Yes! Prey is great. I think I’ve completed it like 3 or 4 times over the years. Still don’t have all the abilities unlocked so maybe it’s time for yet another NG+ run.

Cool. The original is visually stunning but the gameplay leaves a lot to be desired.
