I don't know about all of the matches announced so far for Supercard of Honor. Seems the highlights from the matches announced are Briscoes vs FTR, and Lethal vs Moriarity.

The vote on the Digital Services Act for the EU is supposed to happen soon, and is expected to take effect in the fall. Amongst the new regulations includes a requirement for iPhones to allow sideloading, along with various other things. 

here's the bill's full text (if you want to read it): https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:52020PC0825&from=en

Apparently Scott Hall had 3 heart attacks and is on life support 

I saw this as well. I'm surprised he's still able to function at all, given the fact he did all kinds of drugs during his heyday in WCW.

Placed my quarterly LRG order for some Switch titles. Like last time, no CEs. Also plan on getting some more eShop bucks next week prior to Kirby coming out, and buying off the eShop.

Made my quarterly order with Limited Run today. Picked up Sol Cresta, River City Girls Zero, and Phantom Breaker Omnia; all for Switch for $160 (didn't spring for any CEs) after tax and shipping.

For all the attention Amoranth has gotten (both positive and negative), she's made mad bank and I'm sure G4 backed up the money truck for her. Still won't stop me from blocking her stream from ever appearing on Twitch, recommended or not lmfaooooooo.

Also implies their fearless leader isnt mentally strong

Anyone with any level of common sense and a progeny level for thinking came to this conclusion about Trump a long ass time ago.

tl;dr: Russia is preparing to be straight bodied off the internet and is issuing new browser certificates, which will lead to citizens of the nation suffering from censorship and oversight by Russian authorities.

So it's apparently not owned by aew technically. Its a separate companay that tony khan owns. But even so i dont expect any changes for Supercard maybe they implement a storyline into it. Most likely aew will treat roh like njpw strong to njpw proper. Where if your good enough you get booked for the bigger show 

Seeing how Battle of the Belts II is in the same building a couple of weeks after, there's probably gonna be appearances from AEW wrestlers at the very least.

An update on recent events surrounding my S22 Ultra and my iPhone: 

1.) UPS lost my S22 UItra 5 minutes away from home on Monday at the nearby hub. Today, they finally said it was delayed and to check back for an updated date of delivery. One phone call to T-Mobile later and I have another S22 Ultra on it's way here, by Monday at the very latest via overnight delivery (i.e. next business day).

2.) My Apple Store experience was mostly fine. Other than having to pay $100 to have the back glass fixed, it was a good interaction. I swear to god, the two people that helped me when I was there are old enough to be my kids.

Now that ROH is owned by AEW, I wonder what will be different with Supercard of Honor next month (if anything is different at all).

Nothing like the following VGM Friday song to remind you you're shopping online:

I have Triangle Strategy downloading, but I had to go through the eShop because the Walmart near my house didn't have physical copies of it. I'll also pre-order Kirby today, since I bought $135 worth of eShop credit this morning.

Yea, anyone saying DmC is as bad as DMC2 is a Po Pimpus level self fart sniffer.

Phone update:

Wife gave her blessing to order the S22 Ultra today. With T-Mobile's promotion they had going on; I was able to get a 512gb S22 Ultra for what I would have paid for a 256gb one. I have a case on it's way from Latercase; and I plan on getting a privacy screen protector from Amazon like I have with my iPhone right now.

Also my iPhone's back glass is shattered 🤬, so we're heading to Dallas on Monday to go to the Apple Store.

I'm not even gonna front.

the threat of Nuclear war scares the everloving SHIT out of me. What's really messed up here is where I live currently about an hour, maybe an hour and twenty minutes from Barksdale Air Force Base (where if I remember correctly, it's common knowledge they have nukes stored there). If a nuke gets dropped there, it's GGs because the nuclear fallout will spread here and probably all the way to Dallas.

I love how Marq Quen screamed like a little girl before he got power bombed on Cassidy's back, then got power bombed again on the apron.

For those who missed the Galaxy Unpacked event on Wednesday:

The breakdowns/new things:

Phones:

S22 Series is official, with the S22 Ultra taking it's place atop the ashes of what once was the Galaxy Note line.
S22+/S22 Ultra start out with 8gb of RAM/128gb of Storage; the regular S22 does not have UWB support for 5G. To get 12gb of ram on the S22+/S22 Ultra; you have to commit to at least 256gb of storage. Battery sizes are from 3700 mAh on the regular S22 to 5000 mAh on the S22 Ultra. This puts the battery of my 12 Pro Max to shame.

Starter pricing is $800 for the S22/$1000 for the S22+/$1200 for the S22 Ultra.

Tablets:
Gigantic fucking tablet the size of a laptop and just as expensive as the iPad Pro tablets. That's all you need to know. Look at this fucking unit.
