I have the LattePanda Mu Ultra for testing. Intel Core 5 226V, 16GB of RAM. the default carrier board is certainly a choice.

if you thought the marvel movies and tv shows were aimless and uncoordinated, wait until you hear that the comics are running THREE different events and spider-man #1000 with its own dynamic change and not a single one intertwines with the other in a spectacular fuck up

the worst news stories aside from “player numbers” and “streamer said x about y” is the “Sony has patented something!” stories. the company hasn’t acted on any of their patents that you’ve dug up! they’re just patents!!

going through the portfolio for job stuff and remembering that I spent some time before joining pcguide in 2021 editing videos for Simon Miller, at a time I was very much watching Trixie Mattel & Katya’s UNHhhh.
Screenshot from YouTube:

7 Things To NEVER DO Before A Workout!

The image is of a generic man with a glow around him like Goku, and a Fridge-Freezer as Freiza.Simon Miller on Miller Street (with the logo in the corner) talking to a very green frogMiller superimposed in a fake rendering of MGS4’s loading screens, Metal Miller 4: Guns of the Wrestler and the message: 

[Hot Take]
If you rank all the MGS games, it's 3, 5, Peace Walker, Rising, 1, 4, 2.

yeah, if all the ai researchers are just being sent out to the media one after the other to say, “oh no, good gracious, our machine, the horror!” one after the other, we need to be poking them further until they spill why they actually left.

wait, they’re actually going to make a Diablo V?? if they wanna swinging back further to PoE/D2 pacing, it’ll be appreciated. D4 was too slow and too MMO/live service junk to have the same juice.

i read this, and this shouldn’t have gotten outside of a draft. too many assumptions about stuff that the writer clearly isn’t fully informed on.

there is never a good time for pay-per-click deals, but it couldn’t possibly be worse than now.
Screen Hype is Hiring
We're looking for: video game reviewers/game guide writers, TTRPG/board game reviewers/guide writers, and TV/movie reviewers, as well as lists and opinion pieces across all of those niches. While we're a UK site, we have a small team of global writers, and we're featured on OpenCritic and Metacritic. We would love to get more UK-based writers, but we welcome applications from across the world.
For clarity: You will be self-employed, with a contract, and you'll be paid your earnings each quarter, in conjunction with the time frame from the ad company we use. While there is no base pay, writers can earn up to $100 for any published article based on a majority percentage of the ad revenue earnings gathered through clicks and impressions on that page.
It's up to you how many hours/how much work you do. I work full-time; others work part-time; some work alongside other positions.
While we love to see experienced writers, we provide training for all writers during your probation period. To apply, scroll down to the bottom of the linked page and follow the instructions there.
