We've received the Pixel 10 we ordered and have confirmed it supports unlocking, flashing another verified boot key and locking again.

Our Pixel 10 support will likely only be possible to complete after we finish porting to Android 16 QPR1 which is being released in September.

Didn't expect to finish three games this year, but it's looking like I'll see the end of Death Stranding 2 by the end of the week

We asked Gen X for their opinion on the matter, but they were all too busy drinking water directly out of their hose bibb to comment.

Incredible, Caroline Polachek co-wrote Theme to Death Stranding 2 with Hideo Kojima. We're so fucking back.

Right after it took me 5 years to finish Death Stranding, I'm about to finish MGS V after 10 years. Played most of it in the last year, though

Okay, hear me out: all existence flows from the phenomenalistic mind of Hideo Kojima.
You're not thinking dumb enough. When trialled against US Marines, AI detected humans and successfully ID'd them. So on their next attempt they dressed up as a cardboard box and bypassed it.

When tasked with defeating an AI programmed to detect human movement, a squad of Marines got creative.

Hideo Kojima thinks On The Beach could be Death Stranding's MGS2 moment - and after 30 hours of play, I agree.

Here's 5000 words on how Kojima is evolving Death Stranding 2’s formula with a bold Australian frontier.

The only games I've finished in the last 10 years and their ranking:

1. Death Stranding
2. Bloodborne
3. Breath of the Wild
4. Super Mario Galaxy
5. Life Is Strange

videogame movies and shows were so horrible for so long because so much focus was put onto ensuring the main characters were 1:1 rather than focusing on their acting abilities.

Something the people bitching about Last of Us should consider

The Switch 2 being $450 isn't unreasonable on its own, but when you consider that all first party titles will be $70 or more for several years, maybe this isn't the slam dunk Nintendo is hoping for

Trailer got me to finally finish Death Stranding
March 30, 2025 at 11:25 PM
It took me 5 years to play Death Stranding enough to beat it.

I cant wait to play Death Stranding 2 for the next five years, too
