Part of the issue (a large part) is that it's the 3rd in a single year because they keep shitting the bed after official Google security updates, and fighting with Google support to get them to admit something was their fault is an enraging multi-day process. The 2 was great, the 4 was great, but the 5 and 7 are absolute crap. Never again for Google hardware or support.
That being said, I've had bad experiences with Samsung too. I guess I'm going to Motorola?

Be careful where you say that kind of thing; over the past few years, as population growth in developed nations more and more clearly seems to be plateauing, it's become common to deem it deeply racist and/or xenophobic to suggest that overpopulation will kill us all.
Which is fucking insane, because it doesn't matter where the people will come from; we're all stuck on this same burning rock together.

This is a nutso hard achievement (plus a ton of luck, he racked up a PILE of Zeus in Tartarus). Very validating to see that it was Blitz Disc though, I swear by Blitz Disc but the general consensus seemed to have been that it was kind of trash.

The other, so far unmentioned in response to you--and directly better and more novel than Gunn's cape oeuvre as a whole, though Gunn certainly has his moments--is the Spider-Verse films, and they require no knowledge whatsoever of any of the MCU or DC films to enjoy. Seriously, they're so damn good.

I am frankly baffled to find that no one's recommended All'Antico Vinaio on 8th Ave yet. It's just sandwiches, which should make it thoroughly accessible to the average American kid, but it's the best goddamn sandwiches ever, authentically Florentine in as many ways as they can figure out.
