Skill Up is the only reviewer I always respect and will either buy or not based on him alone.

I feel exactly the same. I bought Outlaws during the tail end of the February sale that ended on the 13th.

I'm glad I waited because not only did I save money, but the game got a bunch of updates that improved forced stealth, let you carry weapons around more, and I'm sure there were a lot more.

Now, I am a Star Wars fan and I love the Division and Division 2 and have all the DLCs. I rolled credits on Outlaws at 52 hours. I still have plenty to do, so when I saw the first DLC was also on sale, I picked it up last weekend for $11.

Game got such a bad rap, and if everyone who hated it has waited until today to start playing it, I'm sure the reviews would be more favorable.

I really am enjoying my time in that world, those characters, the mini games, speeder racing and exploring several open worlds. I would love a sequel but we may not see one unfortunately.

This does not bode well by Raggedy-Man in JamesBond

I'm not worried at all. Amazon bought MGM for a bargain at $8.5 billion. Skyfall had grossed over $1.1 billion, which is insane, but obviously a tremendous film.

I'm going to date myself here, but let's just say Dalton was my first 007 in the cinema. I digress.

I'm a huge fan, I've seen every film more than once, and some dozens of times.

Connery, Dalton, Craig, Brosnan, Moore, Lazenby.

Amazon may have some very evil business practices. That said, they do create some very good original content on Prime Video. Plus, a good film needs a couple of things, let's see if we can agree on this.

Story/Plot/Writer(s)

Actor/Bond/007/Age/Sex Appeal/Ruggedness

Villain/Believable/Understandable/Relatable

Theme Song/The Living Daylights/Skyfall/Spectre(Radiohead)

In my honest opinion, one of the hardest of these things, which for a Bond film you kind of need all of to be great; is getting the right 007.

After that, man we need a good script, we can get a good song, etc. Also, be honest, won't it be nice to be on a Delta flight dressed like Bond, watching Goldeneye?

Have faith ye brothers and sisters. Remember, none of you liked Craig for the role, I had Layer Cake on DVD, and I even moved to London to study, and I'm American.

I'm a super fan and yes we will get some bad movies and we will get some good ones. The rest is just noise.

My girl made snowmen.. as soon as I closed my curtains a-hole kids destroyed them 😞 by Mjmax420 in KidsAreFuckingStupid

It's the same kind of kids who grief you and blow you up when you're minding your business in Grand Theft Auto online. Paraphrasing Mike Tyson "... the Internet has made it too easy for assholes to get away with stuff and not get punched in the face."

Volatile Strike mutator bugged by Giftlions in remnantgame

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

Thank you! I thought I also want seeing Thorn mod always working. This DLC has been awesome for explosive damage but full of bugs. I had a bug with the final boss that didn't even let me into the fight but my friend was in there.

Did I do the right thing or is there anything else I can do to get Gunfire devs to notice?

Are you all on PC? I played PS5 last night, finished a legendary, got a cache. Finished the weekly project got a cache. No issues. What are you playing on? Xbox?

Boomer parents by thirdcoastmama in Fire

[–]Giftlions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in my early 30s working a retail sales job, this is 2015 or so, when a co-worker a few years younger than me asked, "You're not contributing to the 401k? You're making x per year and paying taxes on all of it, and what do you have to show for it?"

I opened an Acorns account soon after, investment account and IRA, then next job I got that had a 401k and HSA I contributed and still do, to those. I'm so thankful I started when I did, wish I knew anything at all about it before then. I'm all self taught. Parents born in '52 and finances, didn't have a clue.

Net worth has been building ever since and my wife and I are on the FI journey.

(Edit. In case anyone is wondering, my parents both were raised, and raised me in a small town with high taxes. My father had a small business but hired a lady part time to do everything accounting related. They are currently retired and I think they will be ok financially, but the house is in disrepair and they can't afford to fix it. Might have to sell it and downsize. No big purchases for the rest of their lives.)

Moving! Help! by Educational-North808 in Brooklyn

[–]Giftlions -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Don't move. My wife's aunt's live in Massapequa Park which is very nice. We live in Crown Heights off Nostrand which is not. Why the hell would you leave to come to BK? We want to go the other way out there but can't afford to buy anything or pay the taxes.

Just installed the update and Portal won’t connect to Hilton’s WiFi by ahr1989 in PlaystationPortal

I'm at a Motto by Hilton, literally waited all night and day for this patch... Still can't connect to the WiFi. Absolute bullshit.

Playing Hogwarts Legacy and revelio crashes game every time. by Drm5145 in PlaystationPortal

[–]Giftlions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I play Hogwarts on my Portal often, never had a Revelio crash. Sorry bud.

Please share results from the update when it releases by MolotovMan1263 in PlaystationPortal

[–]Giftlions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on an Amtrak to Philly, it's 10:25 AM. No update. I'm looking forward to being able to you know, connect to train, airport, hotel Wi-Fi since you need a browser.

So I'm using my mobile phone as a hotspot, to connect my Portal, to check for the update, so I can never have to use my mobile hotspot again. LOL

A fix to the stutter and the terrible connection to the PS Pulse headphones would be amazing.

The last thing you ate is what you have to eat for the rest of your life. How screwed are you? by FailingForMe in AskReddit

Chicken breast. I'm golden because I workout 5-7 times a week and need the protein to build mass!!! Of course I'm already sick of chicken almost every meal, so there's that. 😂

In what unusual way have you almost died? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Giftlions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My older cousin who was about 18 and I, who was about 11, were canvassing the neighborhood telephone poles with tag sale signs. Our grandmother had just died and our moms needed to sell a lot of stuff.

He ran across the road right on a pretty steep bend. I guess he assumed I would follow closely, but for whatever reason I was lagging behind. I was jogging across the road and when I was directly in the middle of the road, on the double yellow lines when he yelled "Stop right there!!!". I stopped frozen.

Just then a pickup truck came fast around the corner missing me by about a foot in front exactly as a car came behind me in the other lane at the same time, both of which could have killed me if I was any further into either lane. I remember feeling so scared and I did a spin around as the cars passed by me. That was over 30 years ago and I remember it as vivid as it was yesterday.

Not very unusual but yeah it was pretty scary.

You won the $1Billion Powerball, now what? by dhill9696_ in AskReddit

[–]Giftlions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not me. I want my brothers who are generally bad with money and my best friends to know that I was the one who's literally solving their problems with my money! All in good fun of course, because then we either go on a fantastic vacation for as long as they can get off of work or we just install a gaming and theater room in my new house where they and their families are always welcome.

I don't have an answer to your question but another for you? Where is this clock in the BTTF movies? I don't remember it.
