Buying the PS VR (for PS4) from someone in town. Any of you ever use this device to watch movies? How's the experience?

I expect it will be awhile before I care to get a Switch 2. Not what I expected to feel a month ago.
Switch 2 somehow keeps getting more expensive.
Upgrading your Switch 1 copies of Super Mario Party Jamboree and Kirby and the Forgotten Land to the Switch 2 versions will set you back $20 per game. www.gameinformer.com/2025/04/24/k...

5 weeks ago, I had double jaw surgery to help fix my bite.
Recovery is slow.
Swelling & numbness take a long time to dissipate.
Still not quite ready for fighter interviews/podcasts.
Still can't chew food for several week.
Lost plenty of (excess) weight.
I want a cheeseburger.
Thanks for reading.

Pretty convinced WBD's long-term goal is to implode

Can't be completely sure, but that "paw" looks a lot more swollen than the other when we spoke at ~6 pm ET yesterday (see screenshot). This is the only time in 12 minutes I saw that hand, & upon review Dan Hooker seemed to glance at it off-camera frequently.
Regardless, wishing a quick recovery.

Every time they show Dana’s “do you want to be a fucking fighter” speech I will remind you that he gave that angry speech because the fighters on the show had objected to fighting for free. That’s the part they always leave out.

BREAKING: PlayStation has canceled two more live-service games, from subsidiaries Bend and Bluepoint, Bloomberg has learned.
Fans have long wondered what Bluepoint has been working on for the last couple of years. I can report it was a live-service God of War game. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Spoke with Arman Tsarukyan the other day, and he chalked up that whole thing about not being "100% invested" to a mistranslation. Clarifies he has been all in on capturing the lightweight belt since his UFC debut in 2019. Watch full NY Post Sports interview on YT. #UFC311
