  • I’ve had the original Pixel, the Pixel 4a 5G, and the Pixel 7a.

    The only reason I ditched my 4a 5G was because my cell service seemed to be degrading (which was odd, because it was 5g).

    Now that I have the 7a, I can honestly say I’m disappointed in its battery life. My 4a 5G could last 36 hours on a charge, even 3 years into ownership. My 7a seems to get down to 15% consistently by the time I get to bed each day.










  • Comparing critics of the PCMR name to people who think the word master is racist is pretty disingenuous. It’s literally master race, a term that was coined to identify a group of humankind which is better than the rest, a term that is inseparable from Nazi’s.

    It’s not about being offended. It’s about being at odds with myself for wanting to be a part of a community because I agree with its values, while wanting to disassociate from the community because of a (seemingly) easy to change name that people don’t want to change.



  • Assuming this post stays up, guess I’ll start.

    (Edit: first off, the question is easy to misread, and I voted the opposite of my intent. So I voted twice in my intended intent to offset it)

    I voted yes because I fully recognize it’s a joke, but I also fully recognize it’s a joke in poor taste.

    I watched Yahtzee religiously back in the day, laughed at this specific joke, and thought it was odd a community adopted the name.

    I’d also like to point people to this community without awkward introductions.




  • Not sure if this counts as a feature, but; more expensive base hardware, less expensive peripherals. I’d legitimately pay like $400 for a top of the line handheld system as long as I could buy a second pair of controllers for less than $50.

    I legitimately haven’t touched my Switch in like 3 years because of controller drift, and I just can’t bring myself to pay $80 for something that seems like it should cost $40. So my PS5 and XSX have pulled my attention away completely.

    TotK nearly convinced me to jump back in, but I ultimately decided against it since it didn’t seem worth $150 to resume playing the Switch.
