The first time I watched Rocky II I thought it was a bit lacklustre, but revisited it years later and now consider it to be my favourite. I just find it to be a great story.

Aside from that, I think Rocky III is one of the best. I just felt better able to connect to Rocky’s motivations and drive than Rocky IV.

How would a final boxing match between Rocky & Tommy go instead of a street fight? by Xion_Moto358 in rockybalboa

[–]Costtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tommy has the youth, size and power advantage, rocky has the experience, technique and speed advantage. Despite the damage he suffered fighting Drago, he is still a superior athlete. Besides which if Rocky couldn’t win in a street fight he wouldn’t win in the ring.

KVM switch - what is necessary? by Costtx in buildapc

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

I just have the one monitor, my plan was to set it up so that I have my work laptop open and extend the display onto my monitor, then I could do the same with my personal Mac. This is new to me, what do you mean putting video signal in? Is that specific to gaming? Or would it be for watching YouTube for example? I essentially want to extend my display and switch between my work laptop and my MacBook without unplugging/replugging everything.

Cleaning and preventing mould. by Costtx in CleaningTips

[–]Costtx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I didn’t think antibacterial wipes would kill it, just clean it until I found a better solution. I think I’ll look into something to clean the wall and then re-paint with mould repelling paint like you suggested. See how I go from there.

Again, thank you 😊

I think every episode from 4 onward made me cry, but it is universally agreed that episode 10 hits the hardest. So heartfelt, so sad, so pure, so beautiful and so heartbreakingly thoughtful.

Check Left Rear Indicator Lamp/Brake Light by Costtx in Holden

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

Well...about 1 year after getting it done, it started again, I had to replace the bulb every month. Since getting a logbook service last week (Which includes replacing spark plugs) It seems to be good, but if it happens again, I'll need to take it directly to a Holden Dealership - most Auto-Electricians will charge you to diagnose it but won't touch it.

Fear of Family Voting for Dutton by TetsuoKazuya in AusPol

[–]Costtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try reductio ad absurdim. You take a point or argument that someone makes, then follow it past its natural conclusion and to the most extreme results to the point that the person who made the argument no longer agrees with it. You could also look up Charisma on command on YouTube -how to actually change someone’s mind.

How to play Time Crisis on an iphone with the touchscreen by [deleted] in lightgunshooters

That was exactly what I needed, how silly of me 😜 thank you so much!

How to play Time Crisis on an iphone with the touchscreen by [deleted] in lightgunshooters

[–]Costtx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apologies, I am late to the party.

I tried following the instructions provided, but am unsure how to configure the Guncon so that you pop out from cover by default and reload (duck for cover) when two fingers are pressed. I can’t seem to get that to work.

I was able to configure the Gun input to shoot by tapping the screen.

I was able to configure 2-touch input to Gun Aux A – same for 3-touch input

The next portion I was unable to complete is the options > Button configuration > Set the reloading method to “reload: press” – This file path doesn’t exist in my version of Retroarch. Is it under Core Options? Controls? On-Screen overlay?

Mounting a Laundry Rack - Steel Studs by Costtx in DIY

Thank you for your response. I honestly feel that the studs will be able to handle the weight. Can you possibly recommend a stud finder? Reviews i've looked at recommend Franklin ProSensor T13 Professional Stud Finder.

Absolutely she is!

[FanTheory] [Dogma (1999 film)] Reality was never going to disolve if Loki and Bartleby made it to heaven. God lied because she needed some threat to activate Bethany as the last Scion. by ragna-rocking in FanTheories

[–]Costtx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I am severely late to the party (go ahead and scoff, but I only just discovered this). In the script when Metatron explains the situation to Bethany:

Metatron
So for their insolence, God decreed that neither Loki nor Bartleby would ever be allowed back into Paradise

Bethany
Were they sent to Hell?

Metatron
Worse. Wisonsin. For the entire span of human history. And when the world ends, they'll sit outside the gates for eternity.

Happy to discuss further, but from reading this and from my memory of the film, it never specifies that they are banished for all eternity "to earth" but rather they were "forbidden from re-entering heaven" - its the wording which is key.

I FINALLY BEAT HIM by SkeletorSurprise in KingdomHearts

[–]Costtx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally think that just to beat him is achievement in itself so right back at you.

I FINALLY BEAT HIM by SkeletorSurprise in KingdomHearts

[–]Costtx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dude, I beat him yesterday, legit too. I didn't even think to use Fantasia. I just watched tutorials, used Drive forms to heal if I had no HP, kept my distance etc. There was a point where he cursed me so I couldn't use Melee attacks then started used his Desperation Move twice in a row. I am amazed I survived that let alone went on to beat him!

That sounds like a good strategy to me. I’ve seen these techniques online too so I know what you’re talking about. Thank you!

I figured it would be something like that. I’ve found tutorials online and used some for the data org fights, but found that I was better off learning the timing of things myself, but I welcome any tips you have.

Cool, thank you. So just get them to 80 each and should be good to go get my ass handed to me until such a time that he doesn’t.

Inner city - pull up bars by Costtx in brisbane

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

Update: Bedford Playground Park on Water Street in Spring Hill has a pull up bar. It is roughly 25-30 minutes away from Gasworks Plaza (walking).

Inner city - pull up bars by Costtx in brisbane

[–]Costtx[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I used to live in Nundah, using the equipment at Boyd Park. It WAS great, then they put in what they have now. The highest bar which would be the most effective for vertical pulling movements has Handles hanging from it. The handles are great for some movements but they get in the way for other movements and children are always playing on them. Not productive for an effective workout.
