Re: iOS 27 Leaks Reveal the End of an Era: Apple’s New Priorities Confirmed

Xaroc — Sat, 09 May 2026 18:51:52 -0000

I feel like they commit to focusing on performance on every major release, then immediately abandon the idea as soon as a competitor releases their AI or another feature that Apple will then prioritize.

Re: Starfield Revival Fails On PS5, Game Is Filled With Technical Issues And Crashes, Says Analyst

Xaroc — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 12:42:15 -0000

It’s a fun addicting game, sometimes the glitches and unexpected behavior makes it the quirky Bethesda game.

However, the game has also frozen about 6+ times throughout my 15 hours logged in my safe file which isn’t great at all.

Addicting good game, but I thought it would be more stable by now.

Re: After awards haul, Helldivers 2 devs lament the "dire state" of the games industry: "We need to be there to help each other"

Xaroc — Mon, 25 Nov 2024 12:34:36 -0000

This game could have continued being great, but they spent the majority of their time making 40+ weapon balancing updates and not enough actual content updates. Though our guns change slightly, the game remained the same, which got boring.

Re: French Ubisoft employees urged to strike over new return to office policy: 'The consequence of its decision will be the loss of our colleagues' jobs'

Xaroc — Sun, 29 Sep 2024 08:28:21 -0000

It’s UbiSoft… Judging on stock and quality of Game Development, I’m surprised they’re not more worried at losing all their jobs to layoffs.

May not be their first pick for a job to go back to the office to, but it’s UbiSoft…. How long can anyone really expect them to stay in business after Assassins Creed 10, repeat formula from 2010

Re: CA shaw

Xaroc — Sat, 07 Sep 2024 12:43:55 -0000

Shaw has been having service disruptions for the past 3-4 days now where the internet stops periodically for 10 - 60 minutes at a time.

I hope this doesn’t become the new normal, otherwise it’s time to find a better internet provider. I want a partial refund at this point from Shaw Cable, together with Robbers.

Literally the top of the list they provided, just look above all the others ones they showed. It’ll be at the top, #1 spot even. lol

check them glasses.

Re: Clicks turns the iPhone into a Blackberry-like typing machine

Is that a Banana in your back pocket, or do you just have a stupidly long phone?

Re: Clicks turns the iPhone into a Blackberry-like typing machine

A song comes to mind… “Ring, ring, ring, ring, Bananaaaa Phone!”

Re: Ubisoft CEO defends Skull and Bones' $60 price tag, says it's 'a quadruple-A game'

Xaroc — Thu, 08 Feb 2024 19:58:17 -0000

I played Skull and Bones for 30 minutes….
It’s just World of Warships with fetch quests.
You’re basically delivering Uber Eats via Boat, while playing World of Warships.

Re: Death Stranding on iPhone made me better appreciate the game

Xaroc — Thu, 08 Feb 2024 10:57:32 -0000

It’s a shame that Death Stranding & Resident Evil 4 were only Promotional releases to sell the iPhone 15.

They could have added graphical optimizations, to allow older iPhones to also play, but then the iPhone 15 wouldn’t have had any outstanding features or reasons to upgrade from iPhone 13, or 14.

This was nothing more than a promo to sell iPhone 15

What about the actual PlayStation?

Re: Bayonetta actor confirms she was offered more than first implied for third game

Xaroc — Tue, 25 Oct 2022 13:02:45 -0000

Literally just go read her Twitter timeline.
Her own words, her own math kills her own claim.
She proved herself false by her own hand.

Re: Apple might bring macOS to the M2-powered iPad Pro in 2023

Xaroc — Sun, 23 Oct 2022 14:58:05 -0000

If they haven’t released it with MacOS support today, then you already know it’s going to be a selling feature to make you buy the M3 ipad next year. If they don’t hold it back, you won’t have a reason to buy it, because MacOS runs on M1 just fine, but they need a feature to sell units next year too.

Marketing.

Re: YouTube Price Increase: Premium Family Plans in Canada Spiking in November

Xaroc — Sat, 22 Oct 2022 08:48:06 -0000

YouTube sent me this email telling me it was time to cancel my family plan. Playing YouTube videos in (WatchTogether) or similar sharing platforms already strips commercials away for the entire group. So thanks for making this baited trap less luring.

Re: Sasha Grey to voice character in Cyberpunk 2077 DLC

Xaroc — Mon, 17 Oct 2022 11:37:37 -0000

Honestly, good for her!
If she can stay out of the porn industry and move on something more main stream and shareable for future works, this a great step for her.

Re: These two Android phone makers are asking users about Dynamic Island-like features

Xaroc — Thu, 22 Sep 2022 10:37:08 -0000

I wish the best of luck to these two Android phone makers in business. That way they can afford to buy an iPhone to learn about it first hand, rather than asking people who bought one to fill them in.

Re: Rogers locks store doors, asks customers for ID to enter

Xaroc — Fri, 09 Sep 2022 08:39:06 -0000

They may have their reasons for this, but as customers who already pay the highest bills between all the carriers, what a way to make everyone feel even less welcome.

Re: Apple Watch Series 3 Available for $129 (Open Box)

Xaroc — Mon, 05 Sep 2022 09:37:58 -0000

Unsupported devices shouldn’t be listed for sale, people are trusting your word on quality products.
It shouldn’t be left to the commenters to let people know the product was dropped from support.

Put people before the all mighty dollar.

Re: Google continues to push Apple to adopt RCS

Xaroc — Tue, 16 Aug 2022 11:41:32 -0000

I don’t hear Apple Users complaining, only Android users who want Apple to comply though. Apple has something they don’t want to share, others with lesser are acting like spoilt brats wishing they had it instead.

You’re not wrong, but this is also the name of competitive business. If Apple shares their stuff as easy as people want, they wouldn’t be in the position they’re in now.

Re: Google continues to push Apple to adopt RCS

Xaroc — Thu, 11 Aug 2022 20:48:52 -0000

I don’t disagree they’re being a bully, but unfortunately they do it really well.
If you had something better than anyone else and it was super profitable for your family and business, maybe somethings are better kept to yourself and under your control?

I’m not trying to match wits with you, this is just me thinking out loud.

Re: Telus to add a credit card processing fee starting in October, pending CRTC approval

Xaroc — Thu, 11 Aug 2022 12:13:55 -0000

I agree, if Telus implements a throttle fee.
THEY must measure the internet, at any point if it gets slower than the rated speed on our agreement, Telus must reimburse customers back as we are suffering loss in revenue & services. As customers we should be able to leverage costs back to the company if they don’t hold up.

If we want to nickle & dime each other then let’s go.

Re: Google continues to push Apple to adopt RCS

Xaroc — Wed, 10 Aug 2022 11:18:09 -0000

Apple looks at Google’s requests and scoffs,
“Why? You’re only going to keep it for 2 years, change the name as you make 2 copycat apps doing the same, but then merge them together in a singular app…. To compete against the 2 NEW apps Google will push out and change the names yet again totally 5 Apps to do the same thing.

Google is like that YouTube channel that’s changing the name of the video 40 times before people start seeing it.

Apple just quietly makes a better version while Google’s fumbling around.

Re: Twitter confirms bad actor took advantage of bug sharing personal account information

Xaroc — Wed, 10 Aug 2022 10:51:33 -0000

This “Bad Actor” is being paid by Elon Musk, same with the rise of bots so suddenly.
Elon only has a few months left to further devalue Twitter to further carry his plan when he wiggles out of the deal, right before he launches his own.

Re: ‘Gamer Girls’ book shines a much-needed spotlight on women in the gaming industry

Xaroc — Wed, 03 Aug 2022 12:30:57 -0000

I’m all for Woman gaming, but woman also need learn to deal with “a—holes” just like men have to.
I see way too many “Woman being harassed because they are Woman” complaints which is okay I suppose, but we men also get treated the same way, except the taboo word “Fa***t” and other nasty “Homophobic slurs” and shots about our mom’s ____ or whatever.

Woman have kinda made themselves easy targets, the abuser gets to watch their victim cry about it the next day like it was a YouTube Apology video, while the abuser continues laughing in round 2. Men get the same treatment, people just don’t care when we’re offended.

Enjoy your privilege.

Re: Tim Hortons will give people a free coffee and donut for selling their data

I mean, trade us employee data. Fair is fair and I’ll deliver coffee and donuts to the managers, upper management right to their homes. - fair is fair, totally not a hypocrite company right?
