Humble Bundle must be really desperate for subs at this point. I canceled my long standing subscription yesterday (I already have Pacific Drive and I don’t want Origin keys), and today they’ve already offered me a re-sub at $6.
No thanks.
Good morning!
I can finally cross Video Games Live off my wish list. Such a cool show and great performance!
Here’s hoping I can actually get a 50-series card through Nvidia’s priority access program!
🫢 Local big box store broke the street date for these, but I won’t complain!
🔗 Scalper bots gobbled up every last 5080 and 5090 in Europe.
Nvidia doesn’t care. Retailers don’t care. All that matters to them is that they get their money. Nvidia makes a killing on cards for AI farms, then hand out a few to TikTok influencers and say “See? We still make gaming GPUs.”
Well, looks like I missed any chance of getting an Nvidia 50-series card on launch day. Best Buy can’t seem to decide whether or not they actually want to sell any, and the official Nvidia shop website is still completely broken. Typical launch day mess, I suppose.
“Claiming to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man, birds, four-footed animals, and reptiles.”
Nintendo would be very stupid to not use hall effect thumbsticks in the Switch 2, considering the drama and lawsuits around stick drift on the first console.
My local GameStop is closing. I’ll miss driving past the classic Halo 3 mural every day.
Gorgeous sunset tonight. And I kinda love the Meta Ray Bans color rendering.
8BitDo has a new smartphone clip that works with their Micro and Zero2 gamepads. Looks like a great option for retro gaming with Delta!
Got a set of Moondrop’s Honkai Star Rail collab earbuds. They sound great, maybe not quite AirPods Pro 2 great, but pretty fantastic for $100. And that iridescent finish is just beautiful.
✅ LTT Commuter Backpack secured.

hoHoYo, merry Christmas!
Over an hour into the Steam winter sale and the site is still broken. Calm down people, the games aren’t going anywhere.
Anbernic’s GBA clone, the RG34XX, is up for order on their official store. I’ll definitely be picking one of these up, but I’ll wait for the 3rd-party AliExpress sellers once it’s got a bit of a discount and free shipping.
Moondrop’s new Honkai Star Rail collab wireless earbuds look too good to pass up. I’m thinking these will end up being my dedicated gaming-on-the-go headphones for my Steam Deck and Retroid Pocket 5.
First snow
