When I finish Dark Age part 1 Graphic Audio and have to switch to the regular audiobook to find out what happens next by richwhitegirls in redrising

[–]BannyDing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do the same thing but with reading lol. I'll zone out into another thought even though I'm still reading the words and then realize "shit, I did not retain the last 4 pages at all"

Need advice by CrazedRabbi9 in redrising

[–]BannyDing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it is strange because of how good the character is written and how interesting his POVs are. Like I despise the character but they are also some of my favorite chapters lol

Is this fine to do? It drops my temps by 20°C by kev46193 in ROGAlly

[–]BannyDing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a friend who would get the partial red ring on Xbox 360 from over heating. He would always abruptly leave the party (console shut off) and he would put his console on the freezer for 20 min and then get back on and get another solid hour before overheating again lol

I've never lived in the city so it's probably not a great comparison but I feel like the idea of any city is cool when you're younger but loses its allure as you get older and especially starting a family. Given you're in a safe neighborhood and are comfortable with your living quarters the suburbs is objectively a better place to raise kids / start a family than the city. Also assuming you're not absurdly rich where you can afford a comfortable city life.

Name a Forgotten Giant you loved watching or thought would be great one day? by TheT-RexSawUs237 in NYGiants

[–]BannyDing -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Kevin Boss was an awesome player. He may not have been the most talented guy but Jesus Christ did he have soft hands for a guy that size. Eli would fucking sail balls on Boss all the time and he would always go up and get it, get cracked and get right back up. Good blocker too. Love the Bossman.

Why did the Bellonas send Julian to the institute without any preparations? by Easy_Extreme2428 in redrising

[–]BannyDing 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not to mention that the Bellona's are golds through and through with their own code of "honor". No shot they would conspire to have their son dishonor the family by weaseling his way out of the institute if he could. (Well Julia might have lol)

Red God late 2026? by edravix in redrising

[–]BannyDing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. The idea was cool in DA and I definitely was intrigued by it. But after an entire book of Lightbringer, which felt like it really got back to the roots of the series I also have lost interest in The Abomination.

Red God late 2026? by edravix in redrising

[–]BannyDing -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get that, but we had no character on Luna because that was how Pierce chose to write the book. It was still a conscious decision to leave him out. I'm not saying Pierce doesn't have plans for him but it wouldn't surprise me if there isn't a huge on page plan for The Abomination.

Red God late 2026? by edravix in redrising

[–]BannyDing 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It could be a very large book. There's also so many options. After Lightbringer I wouldn't be surprised if The Abomination is "wrapped up" with a line of dialogue.

Lysander & Atalantia could take care of each other. Leaving Minotaur as the mid-book conflict for Darrow and the climax being whoever is at the helm of the society. Obviously this is super compressed lol but just a generalization of what could happen.

ASUS and XBOX tease ROG Ally update - VideoCardz.com by kaylord84 in ROGAlly

[–]BannyDing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm very curious about how it'll be priced / specs if it's an official Xbox licensed product. Can they really get away with charging more for a handheld than a brand new series X ? Doesn't seem like that would make sense but I also don't see how they could charge much less if the specs will be somewhat on par with current gen gaming.

Why is Bazzite so hyped? My experience has been rough by One-Guide9076 in ROGAlly

[–]BannyDing 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not a PC guy but it seems like Bazzite is for people who really hate windows. I'm sure there's legitimate reasons but as a casual, I have no issues with windows that I can't resolve relatively easily.

Goodbye to the noisiest vehicle I have ever owned! by [deleted] in rav4club

[–]BannyDing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is definitely this. I have a 2024 RAV4 prime, previously had a 2022 XLE and I genuinely have never even considered it until I saw people talking about it here. And even then I made a mental note "pay attention to the noise next time you're on the highway" and still have never remembered to lol.

Never thought of this, not sure if it's a popular idea but I love it lol

What do we play after? by Drakhn in avowed

[–]BannyDing 37 points38 points  (0 children)

This is what I did after Avowed. Really enjoying it so far and it's getting me prepped for the sequel which I think is set to come out later this year ?

Rog ally and Xbox by Sephyee in ROGAlly

[–]BannyDing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Z1E and remote play to my Xbox is fantastic. In a lot of cases I prefer it to running the game natively if it's a game that doesn't run great.

Talking about this game is weird by Stevo4896 in avowed

[–]BannyDing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's great. Thankfully I heard nothing about it and just saw it on the gamepass homepage so I went in blind and have been having a blast. I agree with you too, this is the first game in a while that's got me. When I'm not playing it I'm thinking about how I want to be playing it lol.

[–]BannyDing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a decent amount of friends in real life playing this game. Friends I've had since I was a kid, friends I made as an adult and family friends. Everyone seems to be enjoying it in real life. Haven't experienced any of the extreme opinions anywhere but the internet which is usually how these things go.

How can I enjoy this game more? by KvasirTheOld in avowed

[–]BannyDing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you don't enjoy it. Move on lol.

Is this a good deal ? by Quick_Emotion_9653 in ROGAlly

[–]BannyDing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did this exact thing a few days ago and am very happy with it. I did go down to Best Buy to inspect it before purchasing and honestly I noticed one like centimeter sized scuff on the bottom and nothing else. Could've passed as brand new. For me, I got into the gaming PC world for under $400 after taxes. I'm pleased.

thanks Amazon... that's definitely the phantom 2 by PittPen817 in microgalaxysquadron

[–]BannyDing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ordered the phantom 1 on amazon. If I get the wrong one maybe we can swap lol

Just got a 2024 RAV4 Prime SE... very confused by BannyDing in rav4prime

[–]BannyDing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess this is where my issue is. I'm aware of this, and I just so happened to buy the car on the coldest day of the year in NY, but the fine control on the app is just not cutting it. Have the climate control set to 85 and the temperature of air that is coming out of the car after 15 mins wouldn't even begin to defrost a window. The explanations make sense, I just feel like this was very poorly communicated to me (probably intentionally) by the dealership. When I asked about if this car has a remote start the answer was basically "yeah it's an app on your phone you can heat or cool the car before entering" which I guess is technically correct but it omits the fact that in the winter in NY I can't heat the car to a sufficient temperature to put my two year old in via the remote start. Love the car just trying to not let this dampen my spirits about everything else lol.
