I just purchased an Xbox Series X last month, why? Well I do have an Xbox Series S and Xbox one but I worry that the Series X model which is available right now might be the LAST Xbox console to feature a disc drive as Xbox pushes forward to an all digital future (also leaks came out that a white Series X with no disc drive is on the way) !

I hate the idea of an All digital gaming future, I feel a balance and options is the best for consumers so I had to put my money where my mouth was an pick up a Series X, also it will allow me to pick up some incredible Xbox 360 games which work via backwards compatibility but are no longer available digitally due to licencing issues which is a BIG bonus!

Its an impressive bit of kit which i feel Xbox have nowhere near enough got enough performance out of this box, even though its a horrible looking console I intend to make it a bit cooler looking by firing on some cool dbrand skins! Maybe I should do a comparison between the Series S and Series X?

DRM-free games or cartridges with games, which are 100% working w/o the internet the only way to insure you gonna keep the game running. Xbox x works without a connection?

Very nice. I've got a Canon 7D that was once the most expensive tech purchase I ever made. I know it's time for an upgrade, but I'm loath to get rid of it when it's seen me through so much, duct tape and all.

The 7D is a solid camera, often chosen by wildlife photographers who prefer crop sensors. I transitioned directly from film cameras to full-frame DSLRs and haven't looked back since!

So this is my new favourite thing I bought a week ago! It's called ColorCoral and it's basically a cleaning slime, what you do is take it out and push it into your keyboard and roll it across, back and forth and what it does, is clean your cleanboard by sucking up all the crap between keys and dirt/dust off the keyboard!

It was I think £10 - It's really good and it's worth it and the best thing is it doesn't fall apart when you're using it.

The sweets are because I love sweets xD Plus it was a new sweetshop in the city and I couldn't resist going in!

Ha, that's neat. Can you just wash it afterwards to then re-use it, or is it a one time thing?

FirestormGamingTeam's avatar

Yeh you can rinse it carefully it says, haven't needed to do that yet lol

MURRRAAAAY made me buy these and I love them! I was saving up for a Stream Deck, but then the Elgato Wave 3 mic was on sale too on Amazon so I gave in and went for both. Before I thought that Elgato products were overpriced and I only looked at a Stream Deck as a necessity to have easier controls to my stream but damn this was worth all the money I spent on it. Truly quality hardware and the software is really nice and easy to use even for a noob like me. Didn't think having a standalone mic would make such a huge difference compared to my headset mic, but it does. I 100% recommend these, they are not cheap but it's money well spent. And it makes me feel good that I could afford these from my payouts here, so thanks guys! 💚

So this is kind of new tech. I have wanted to update my Gameboy Advance for years but I always put it off. Now however I have decided to go for it and have started with the power.

I bought a USB C chargable battery pack and cover so theres no need to steal the batteries from my tv remote anymore 🤣

Only took a little modification in the housing but I now have a chargable GBA.

My next aim will be to give it a backlit LCD screen and I can not wait to get that ordered!

My latest tech investment has been the Wireless Rode Go 2's to use for travel and convenction purposes! I really wanted something portable that I could take around with me that wouldn't be big, heavy, or a pain to set up. When I last when to a convenction I decided to do a livestream and had a few audio issues, or it didn't sound as good as I wanted it too. So I decided to pick these up to get the best audio whenever I'm not in the office!

Looks like 80% goes in to Photoshopped models :P White Teeth so white they could blind you.

Not a submission but I bought an overpriced Remarkable notepad and I love it… It doesn’t do anything more than a piece of paper can but that’s not the point!

Sturmer's avatar

Haha, I’ve been bombarded by their ads everywhere! Since I write and doodle a lot in my notepad, I considered this product, but... it seems fragile, requires a power source, and might not be as reliable as pen and paper. Is there a lag? Also, the price is a factor – for that amount, I could buy a bunch of fancy pens and notepads that would last me two decades!

I bought an arc lighter ! I have jet flame and normal aswell..but there is something cool about being able to charge your lighter via usb c and have something lit by plasma ! Feels very futuristic

Alex Sinclair's avatar

I had to Google that. I had no idea such a thing existed - very cool!

DISCLAIMER

This about one of the pure basic things your body performs. If you can´t handle this... ah f**k it... sometimes luck needs to be forced!

We play little game here, my rules, you follow and watch your feelings...

Following is happening, you can´t avoid it. Out of Magic some dog poo appears on your face. It smells horrible. You as you are bounded to the culture level of your people… you use toilet paper to wipe it away. But for fucking sake the smells stays.. how could that be i used a lot of paper.

(how does it feel?)

Feels wrong, ? Where's atleast the Water or atleast a wet wipe?! Yeah, i know but for you ass you don´t care. What i am talking about?

A fucking Japenese Toilet I have documented one, during my journey in Japan. Just in case i would forget about it.

What can I say…. After this step you never step back. Ah, you don´t need the fucking 5k Toilet, you want the SEAT just the SEAT. Much cheaper and you don't need to rebuild everything.

MEWATEC Shower WC Fixture E900

Feature List:

  • Opens when you come close

  • Seat can heat up

  • Air Sucking thingi against smell

  • Water pistol for Men and Woman with or without target improving

  • it is actual warm water so it doesn´t kill you in the morning

  • Closes when you leave

  • Ah can dry your wet ass with hot air if you want

  • Darwin approved, only works if you sit on it

What are you waiting for ?  Get one, somewhere … now! Why you still reading, remember the shit in your face on the beginning. Hurry, this easy to reach new Chapter of life. ‘ Like i have present it to you in the best possible way. Only crazy people wipe shit with only paper from their face . No offense… as said, the step is easy.

You can go ultra low budget with a hose, as your toilet is anyway connected to water so why not adding a hose? 

Took me 33 Years to understand, don´t be a fool like me,change it now! -.- Oh, should have a referral link or so…

A premium Version which suits western toilets is around 700-800 Bucks. But there are also light versions which go for 200 Bucks. And remember the hose is probably less than 40 Bucks at the tool store.

Does it really clean? Depending on... you should move a little bit around to hit every spot. For me it works very well but maybe you are diffrent i don´t know.

If you search for Toiletseat in EU check following Brands:

- Leeventus
- vidaXL
- Mewatec

I would say Germany has a nice culture..but in this we suck, we horrible suck.

Quest 3 and Walkabout Golf, I might never leave the house again!
