Seems Microsoft broke the j turner or bits of it again traceroute shows Microsoft's infrastructure (msn.net) is actively dropping packets at the SG2 gateway

I have unlocked 4 mythic achievements, not a lot I know, but because they are retroactive ones… still have not seen the mythic achievement sound/icon. I do like that they ignore DLC/additions, and a breakdown is given of what you need to pop mythic… will it turn me into an achievement hunter? Nah

Very sad right now my original Xbox just did the magic smoke, I was assured at the time from the person we purchased it from that it had been recapped - I never checked - trusted the guy because he runs a store in a mall. So far as I can tell these are the original capacitors on the power board.

Meta could announce a fountain of youth that fixes all that ails you, and I would still be skeptical about what the angle is.

And yes, it sucks people are losing their jobs, but it’s hard not to look at 343/Halo Studios and its massive usage of temp workers for one of the biggest titles in gaming. 343/Halo Studios was/is mostly a brand manager (opinion)

Halo is now under Activision, which, if we put our honesty hats on for a moment, means that the mechanics of Halo are in generally safe hands. An actual concern could be the story. The campaign alongside a wicked score drive this game— CoD stories are more miss than hit.

YouTube removed the subscription button from the mobile bar on iOS and while I see the thinking that subs is a tab on the homepage, it feels unintuitive. Hope they make this customisable or revert soon.

So, and I quote, "Micron shed -5.2% due to fears of an oversupply in High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) chips used in AI servers." I mean, RAM prices won't drop anytime soon, but it does bring a tear to my eye watching Micron lose $55 billion in a day.

It's a cool card but after the (guesstimating) 14th reprint you have to question why this version is worth as much as base set 2 version, XY promo, 4th reprint etc

Anthropic and friends are talking about slowing the progress of the development of Ai and putting in better safety measures, but the genie is already out of the bottle. This year alone likely has more “critical security updates” pushed than in the past 10 years (theory, not based on facts)

Only takes one of them to say no; the others follow suit, and suddenly it’s an industry standard. We, the bewildered consumer, jog on like it’s normal and just get used to “the new normals.” Nothing will change until the quiet majority speaks with its wallets.

Cyberpunk 2077 also worked; forgot about that one, but yep, redeems fine. I did note when checking between consoles that you may need to restart a console that the game was not redeemed upon to see it. I redeems one a One S but the series S and X need to restart to see them

It should also be noted you can redeem Xbox One and Series S|x games on an Xbox One (cannot play the Series games on Xbox One obviously) I redeemed games on an Xbox One S

So Ai attacks have become a problem to the extent that we need Ai to pre-scan, post-patch, and analyze. Seems like they are giving me the virus and then selling me the cure.

Xbox discussing "Disc to Digital" did catch me a little off guard but was a welcome event... I really do hope the NextBox does include a physical drive, but it seems more and more unlikely. Annoyingly, I own a ton of 360s but not so much XBO or XBSX physically but curious to see how this plays out.

I've opted out of buying GTA 6 until it releases. I had fully planned to pre-order a copy on release, but TakeTwo opted to nuke physical. I was looking forward to the updated map in the box, of all things— the game will still sell like crazy and hope it does live up to the hype.

Pokémon 30th anniversary edition set will be one of the largest printed sets of any Pokémon set ever— astronomical numbers. Sadly, I still think the scalpers will make this extremely difficult to get at a near MSRP price. Good luck to all the collectors and players of the TCG game.

$16.68 billion might seem like a lot, but Facebook made $200 billion last year with profits in the $60 billion mark. The loss of funds will sting Facebook but I’m confident that figure will come down over time, and who knows what else with the current administration.

Ask your favorite content creator if they have this enabled BEFORE you opt to engage in public chat and, in effect, make Ai and future Ai powered scam bots better (doom-mongering, I know) It's opt out by default.

Meta's smart glasses are rapidly moving down the same road as Google Glass, and in both cases, it seems to be down to users using them in ways everyone but the creators expected.

AI is everywhere leading to weird witch hunts on content leading to developers defending the hard work they put in... it must be very deflating to do things "the right way" only to have your work questioned over and over again.

These things were expensive BEFORE Ai decided to destroy gaming but the newer models are absolutely not worth the cost. $109.99 for the 512GB $199.99 for the 1TB $339.99 for the 2TB I really hope whatever Helix becomes it does not repeat this disaster. www.purexbox.com/news/2026/08...
