    Yeah. My bone grew around the two plastic pieces of the band because the mesh in the middle lost all of its springiness. One day I felt my head and decided that I was switching as …

    My AirPods Max 1 left a headband dent in my skull from how poor the quality of the headband was after more than a year of daily use. They also are super heavy and don't travel well…

    It’s crazy to me how hard people work to effectively ruin a game for themselves… Imagine putting in this much effort to play Minecraft survival but on creative mode. It just doesn’…

    So I just checked the player count of Counter-Strike 2. It's at 936,330 players. At 10 players per match, that's a requirement of 93,633 game moderators... Trying to also account f…

    Ask HN: How to check who the black bar is honoring?

    I noticed the black bar is up today and I don't see any death posts. Is there an easy way to see who this is honoring? It would be nice to have a feature that on hover said who it …

    In my experience most free-to-plays just use a battlepass nowadays and don’t rely on whales (though obviously all games have them) Gambling based games like cs:go and genshin absol…
