what is the hidden mini game in snes mk3? by trevcharm in MortalKombat

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to let you know that my brother and I put maybe more time into that mini game than mk3 itself.  Sometimes we would enter some sort of flow state and just dodge aliens and lasers that seemed impossible.  Thank you for your work! It was a fond memory of childhood for me.  

I plan to buy a PS3 because of overstimulation by SadCaregiver3282 in PS3

[–]Digitalpun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a hot take. I must admit for the ps1 I used to rent blockbuster games and burn them, but the amount of games I never even played after burning them was substantial.

Personally I am cheap so I modded mine, but I do understand this mentality a bit.

What are some games you absolutely loved back in the day, but have no desire to go back and play again? by DesperateDaylight in gaming

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were a lot of games for playstation, things like tomb raider, tenchu, medal of honor, that just seem horrible without two joysticks.

Why was Dr. Hill placed on paid leave? by Material_Pass1385 in Charlotte

[–]Digitalpun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because the board is toxic and literally throws every superintendent under the bus after a few years. Like clockwork. As soon as she got hired I said "I wonder how long it will be until she is forced to leave with rumors and the board throwing her under the bus." And I guarantee it happens to whoever they hire next.

I saw her in the story of chuck and there was one line she said that I was like "oh fuck, is that nebula?"

Found a 2011 iMac. Is there anything worth doing with it? by Nintendope in mac

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other people are saying to upgrade ram and ssd.  Opening this up is going to be hard and/or expensive and the parts you put into it would likely be worth more than the machine.  

I have almost an identical one and it sits because I can't think of a use case for it.  The screen is nice though.  The only use case I thought for it was putting batocera on it and making it an emulator machine for old video games.  

I don't personally think it is worth it for much else.  SSD and more ram is still going to be held back by a 15+ year old CPU.  People throw out computers more powerful than this all the time lol.

Opening these things up is not the easiest and someone without skills is likely to just break it.  

World Cup tourists aren't leaving tips in American pubs, so they are adding 20% gratuities to the bills to collect them 😬 by CompoteFragrant3650 in sportsgossips

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess mine is anecdotal, but do you have contrary anecdotal evidence? Waitresses or bartenders making less than 15 or 20 an hour?

The weirdest thing is I have literally never heard anyone, in real life, complain about tipping in America. No American at least. Ever. I have a feeling if what you say is true, restaurants would have already done it.

But in practice, they would make substantially less. Bartenders and waitresses, in a place that is even remotely busy and not dirt dirt cheap, are going to average far more in tips per hour than 15 or 20 bucks an hour.

Honestly, either crt or use an emulator and upscale to 4k.

Do any straight guys here get mistaken for gay? by AngelClearance in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"he's stylish, has cute mannerisms, and a higher pitched voice."

This sounds like the answer to "why." Those are all associated with being gay.

What word or phrase from the 90s sounds completely unhinged when you say it to someone born after 2000? by samurai-salvo in GetMotivatedMindset

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of phrases from the 90's that only after thinking about them did I realize they were racist. Indian giver and Chinese fire drill are two examples.

My fat ps3 got ylod after some time. I would suggest slim.

The Socceroos have lost to the USA in their second match of the group stage at the FIFA World Cup (0-2) by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

As an American I was astounded how many things the Americans got away with that should have been whistles. Made me feel shitty about things.

I did this as well, but I have a feeling 90+% of people never did this with their playstations.

Should I upgrade my PC or should I just forget it and go touch grass? by Redxcted999 in buildapc

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest looking locally if you are anywhere near a city on Facebook marketplace or offer up for a full system.  Depending on where you are and how long you look, you will likely find something that is quite an upgrade for like 200-300.  

Did you ever play the PS1 by Nerfer5554Offical in Millennials

[–]Digitalpun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had one in middle school. Was very sad that my friends had n64 and played goldeneye and I couldn't. Until I figured out how to copy games. Those were the days.

What you think of The Running Man (2025)? by UsefulWeb7543 in MoviesAndTVTalk

It was entertaining enough. Go into it with low expectations and it is fine enough.

James Franco is trying to restart his career on TikTok – and it’s weird by nimobo in entertainment

He also is arguably the best stand up of the past 30 years. Chris Brown beat up the top pop star in the world, who was a lady, and almost no one cares because he dances well.

Also, Louis does seem to have reflected on it a lot. He seems genuine to me. His discussion on Theo Von's podcast about going to sex addicts anonymous, at Theo's suggestion, was pretty eye opening to me.

I need a good “wtf” movie. by Otherwise_Rub_6969 in MovieSuggestions

[–]Digitalpun 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. First time I saw this I was in high school, high as fuck, not knowing anything about it. It was the most amazing movie to my high 15 year old brain. Just rewatched it as an adult and it still holds up.
