  • Hi OP. Sorry I don’t have an answer to your question but I do have one suggestion for consideration when purchasing a new phone, and that’s battery capacity. I’m not sure if you much about batteries, apologies if you do, but for a vague reference 3000mAh is on the low end, while 5000mAh is a pretty pumping battery. Personally, I only buy phones with a minimum 4000mAh battery capacity.

    Of course how long the battery will last battery varies on based on numerous factors, including but not limited to the phone hardware, screen size, what apps you run, and much more.





  • Straight up ska (in addition to what other people have said): Streetlight Manifesto, Mad Caddies, The Interupters, Big D and the Kids Table, The Specials.

    If you wanna go old school and to a couple of biggest influences on modern ska and way more punk: Choking Victim (later morphed into Leftover Crack) and Operation Ivy (morphed into Rancid).

    Roots (like ska but a bit more chill): Stick Figure, The Expendables, Rebelution, Pacific Dub.

    You may also like Sublime and the band made after that Sublime with Rome (although personally I don’t).

    Also something not quite ska but kinda in the vein of, shameless plug for a great New Zealand band called Fly My Pretties.




  • Path of Exile on PS5 (I don’t have access to PC/xbox).

    According to the trophies, only 8.8% of players complete Part 1, with 4.4% completing Part 2. For context, Part 1 would take a new player maybe 20 hours, with Part 2 being a tiny bit shorter. Imo the most likely reason for this is new players bricking their characters. PoE is extremely complicated and if you don’t know what you’re doing you’ll build and gear your toon so wrong that you’ll get to a point where you can’t progress and you don’t have any way of fixing it.

    2.3% of players reach level 80, with 0.9% reaching level 90. Context: After completing the campaign you’ll be around level 70, getting to 80 isn’t difficult, long or hard. Level 90 requires a slight investment of time and effort.

    If you’ve never played PoE before these stats might seem low, but for people that have played it I’m sure it makes a lot of sense! It does to me anyway.
