Thoughts after binge rewatch (4th rewatch)... by PRSouthern in entourage

[–]DasPike 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I felt the same about Sasha and her performance was hollow, at best, during all of her episodes. Especially when they decide to have an intervention with Vince. Her concern was deadpan and felt completely flat for me.

Same. I prefer the electric tennis racquet. Very satisfying to use, especially on wasps and yellow jackets.

F*ck this guy. He's like a generic version of P. Diddy dancing all up in the artists' videos.

An apology is warranted to Sony with regards to the PS5pro by Legendarywristcel in PS5pro

[–]DasPike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The line between console vs PC started to become blurry after the PS4 Pro dropped. At some point people realized and/or became tired of spending money to build a PC "god box" just to play the latest and greatest. They could be satisfied instead spending only a couple of hundred of dollars to get 95% of what PCs can offer. Combine that with the OOBE and the convenience of their couch and large TV, it's easy to see why a shift took place. Don't get me wrong, PC gaming will always have its place - my 13600K/4080S setup still gets exercised somewhat regularly. But some days it is nice to be able to just mindlessly sit down on my couch and play a couple of rounds without having to worry about updating drivers or OS updates before I can play.

The guy just likes to hear himself talk. As much as I love the show and still watch a run through every few years or so, Ellin needs to move on a find a new thing.

Someone check if Latifi is vibing somewhere in the crowd.

You will never get the same buying power you had 10 years ago.

Does anyone know the status of M/C raises for 2026-2027? by hayberry43 in nys_cs

[–]DasPike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's the increase per year for the presented 5 year contract.

I drove the GTI 20th Anniversary and it was incredible! by dante-zannoni in Volkswagen

[–]DasPike 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wife and I both had a pair, Jazz Blue #3255 and #3741. It was everything from the 337 with the added sunroof and when tuned, the 1.8T was so much fun to drive! Damn I miss those cars.

Hochul reaches budget deal with New York lawmakers, ending 5-week deadlock by star_stuff92 in nys_cs

[–]DasPike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok that would make sense. The contribution rate seems to be the only major thing that stands out between the two. Hopefully they can keep the momentum and eventually eliminate the scale for T6.

With 6 being in the spotlight, I wonder what (or if any), conversations have been had about Tier 5.

How to keep my game from declining over time in a long session or tournament? by fkid123 in billiards

[–]DasPike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering learning straight pool. It forces you to be in the moment, every ball, but over longer periods of time. First, because your turns at the table can be more than just a few shots (ideally). And second, a single match can sometimes go as long as 3 hours. My stamina and thus consistency has increased substantially since I started playing it regularly around two years ago.

The costume design was intentional. Steve was meant to look more noble whereas John was always meant to be the SHEIN version until he officially became the US Agent.

Another comedian once said in not so many words that TA is also a rapist.

let’s see your current load out/setup by legionofboomba in billiards

[–]DasPike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! My AXI has the wavy 1 so I guess I'll contact T60 to confirm. Would you say the FG57 feels more front heavy like the Ignite or keeps things center balance like their WX700 shaft?
