After the latest update, my Instagram doesn’t have a photo tab. Completely gone, it’s all videos now.

I hope it’s a bug.

Rush hour, but make it aesthetic.

Once Upon a Katamari is the perfect kind of sequel: familiar, but better in every way. Quirky, a bit more difficult, less repetitive. And still weirdly meditative to play.

I can’t quite figure out who the Leica M EV1 is aimed at. If the rangefinder’s getting harder to use (say, eyes are getting worse), most people would just stick a Visoflex on their M11, right?

How big is the audience that loves manual focus but hates rangefinders and wants focus peaking instead?

Wow, a new Dick Turpin on Apple TV! I thought they canceled it!

And it's so good! C'mon, Apple, give us the second season!

Hades 2 is awesome. Runs like magic on Switch 2, even in portable mode.

This GDC announcement is certainly confusing. And the deck doesn't make things any clearer. Is it a consumer show now? Is it just cheaper? What changed?

RX1R is back! So happy about the fixed-lens cameras having such a massive comeback. And with Sony now back in play, it should get really interesting.

It seems to have the same sensor as Q3, but the camera is much smaller and lighter. No mention of IBIS, though

Here is a dilemma. I love my Leica M11 – it makes me slow down, think about focus and framing, but I often miss the shot.

My Q3 43’s autofocus and flip-screen are perfect for quick snaps – but I end up spray-and-praying, and often get mediocre pictures.

Which one should I pack for the next trip?

Just got Unicorn Overlord on sale. Surprised I missed it when it launched - I am a big fan of Fire Emblem and Vanillaware games, so this is right up my alley. I only learned about the game a couple of months ago when I saw some merch in Akihabara, and it's been sitting on my wishlist since.
