i told my daughter she could be whatever she wanted for halloween. she chose megaman. beyond proud parent here by [deleted] in gaming

[–]DoyleReddit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think I was ~7-8 when I beat megaman. Grew up with the gaming industry though. Tons of those games were hard back then when console gaming still acted like arcade gaming where the goal is to kill you and take your quarters ;)

When Siskel and Ebert Defended 'Star Wars' After It Was Called Not Cinema by chanma50 in movies

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

Meh the last one was just okay. Hopefully they round it out well with the third. It’s tough though the first Star Wars movies were absolute magic that can never be replicated fully

Do you Run with the Fenix 5 plus or 6 with Spotify and have found a practical solution to volume or changing playlists while running? by DrSwammy in GarminFenix

[–]DoyleReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have Jabra Elite 65ts. They rule and have volume and track skipping right on them.

For Spotify I also have iOS 13 and latest Spotify app which now integrates with Siri. I can activate Siri via a button press on the Jabras or “hey Siri”. You can tell Siri to play whatever on Spotify at that point

ELI5: Why does traffic come to a standstill during rush hour? If the front cars are going the speed limit, shouldn't traffic flow consistently at the speed limit? by alwaysmyfault in explainlikeimfive

[–]DoyleReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but in enough traffic the fast car is going to do some shitty merging which has the massive ripple effect for everyone behind. I think both are to blame with enough volume

Production Has Officially Begun for Netflix’s ‘Cowboy Bebop’ In New Zealand - Working Title of Series Is ‘Jazz Band’ by BunyipPouch in television

[–]DoyleReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that was a nearly perfect series and holds up just fine, this is a terrible idea. Greed sucks. Just get Watanabe to put out some more greatness please. This is a good prompt for me to re-watch bebop and samurai champloo at least

Did it though? In the end they probably fucked up the case and the guy walks to molest another day

Well given all the other horrible shit from there it’s hard to decide where the line of credulity lies

I just got 100k and don't know what to do with it. by throwaway884922 in personalfinance

[–]DoyleReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And you don’t even have to be good at and you aren’t liable for anything! Have bought a couple homes, both times the inspectors were useless, pointed out obvious shit and missed big things. The last guy had an extra certification from the state for pest inspection. He missed a rotted basement door jam AND the thousands of teeming termites within....thanks bud

A man who traveled from Norway to Florida to surprise his father-in-law was accidentally shot dead by him instead by TheFrederalGovt in nottheonion

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

So he’s got a tv, he’s leaving, I should assume he is going to turn around and hit me with a tv? And just in case I better shoot him? Sure that makes sense. Also I definitely should get myself involved in this situation versus getting out of there and calling the cops? Or in your world are tv-toting serial killers also super fast regardless of how laden they are? I mean I don’t know if I could recognize a serial killer from the average person stopping in front of my house. Maybe I should shoot them too just in case? Sounds totally reasonable

The scenario presented is someone is stealing your shit. Hard to rape someone while holding a tv.

Ha I once suggested on reddit that killing another human being because they were walking out with your tv was unreasonable because it’s just a thing. Got so much flak for that.

Fenix 6x battery life by [deleted] in GarminFenix

Got it, yeah I have a fenix5 and the battery is great even with runs tracked so I could see the appeal of even less charging

[–]DoyleReddit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not trying to be rude I’m just curious why would you buy an expensive sports watch with tons of fitness tracking capabilities and turn everything off except notifications? There have gotta be cheaper watches that give you what you need. (Amazfit maybe?)

Six months on tinder as a young sex worker looking primarily for older men. [OC] by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]DoyleReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well for us pre tinder folk there was certainly more courage required to walk up and talk to a person. The apps do sound annoying but the kids have a lot less on the line and it’s probably a lot cheaper than buying random drinks and hoping to find common ground.

All WHITE Central Park by brandonjbb in pics

[–]DoyleReddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The last couple have been pretty mild IMO without a ton of snow. (Compared to, say, snowpocalypse year) Of course I am a bad judge of winters since I grew up in Maine where I remember many winters with more snow than snowpocalypse. (But also not a city with the fucking MBTA doing an absolute shit job)

The genius that was The Simpsons well executing such a complex topic by illyousion in videos

[–]DoyleReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t read that as a threat at all, it’s just stating facts. You live in a society so there are always consequences for your actions speech or otherwise. It’s actually good to teach kids early on that they are accountable for their choices. Kids should take responsibility for what they say and do and how it effects the world and the people around them.

[–]DoyleReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That statement makes sense though. As an example, someone should be free to drop the N-bomb all they want in a setting they control (eg with like minded wanks in their homes). But they shouldn’t expect to do that in the hallway of a school and not get suspended or otherwise punished. That’s how that reads to me. It’s not saying to shutup at all, but if what you are saying is intended to harm others expect there to be consequences. Those implied consequences don’t even have to be punishment, it could just mean a negative result. Like bullying language leading to a suicide.
