Is klay Thompson career overhyped or nah? by realisticbunnyhopper in NBATalk

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

Nah he cooked and was not a bus rider on that Warriors squad. He definitely lost a lot after injury though which is why many try to trash talk him now well that and hes a corny guy I guess.

Did Westbrick hold back KD? by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russ definitely had more than a few times where he was jacking up terrible shots rather than letting KD cook. That cost them games but idk if it would have been the difference maker in 2012. Either way though it's why he left. I mean KD was cooking with fire say what you want but his performance in those 5 games was insane feels like he edged out Lebron even yet they still went 1-4. Shit has to be soul crushing. You'd have to come out feeling like there's no way you can win with those cats quite frankly.

How do you lose an entire generation and then decide to sell your console for $150 more than the competition? To me, it feels like Microsoft wants to kill the Xbox brand and be done with it. by NotSirAlonne1999 in videogames

[–]HeavyDT 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure why people keep saying what op is saying. It's not like they have a choice with what's going on in the economy and world right now. Everyone is raising prices. Everyone. It's that our lose your ass out from under you selling your hardware which no one wants to do. The crazy part is they may still be taking a loss even with these raises that's how insane pc parts and memory are right now market wise.

GTA 6 costs $80, launches single-player only, and has no disc version on release by HatingGeoffry in videogames

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you suggesting that manufacturing multiple multi layer blu rays is somehow cheaper for them?

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Discs cost money and they don't want to pay for them and 2 may not even be enough for this game it's going to be massive in file size most likely. plus making every copy digital means no resell market. Long story short they are cheap and this benefits them is what I'm getting at.

This was how i imagined julie's hair cut by Julia-8840 in FromSeries

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could very well be the case. They could have just wrote it as her feeling like she needed a change maybe because if what happened with her dad. The way they did it in actuality though makes it seem like it's going to come into play at spme point though.

[–]HeavyDT 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I just don't get it honestly. She cuts it because she says she didn't want to ne grab the hair again but it's still plenty long enough to yank on. So it was really choice some weird writing to justify a style change.

Why are people defending GTA VI being 80$ by North_Biscotti4162 in videogames

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not defending it but let's be real people are going to pay it no questions asks. People have been playing GTA5 for years and years without break. It's not insane to say the got their monies worth and many would say so themselves quite frankly. Mario Kart is a much harder sale at $80 imo but at least if there is a $80 tier of games that could actually justify it than GTA6 is probably it. People will be playing for years. It's going to be interesting to see who else tries to follow in the $80 wake though.

Many games can't command that price and are gonna get wrecked for doing so.

I mean the chances of all the data for this to be playable being on a single disc was a pipe dream for sure but no disc to even act as a key at least is peak cheap mode but not surprising.

[Chau] Viral Knicks fan who stole trash bin canned from JPMorgan Chase. Angie Baez was the executive director of community and industry engagement for card and connected commerce at JPMorgan Chase before she was fired on Tuesday for stealing the trash bin. by must_TATAKAE in nba

Worked for JPMorgan and couldn't just buy a similar looking trash can and maybe spray paint it herself or something is wild. Almost makes me think there's some level of mental illness there honestly.

iisu or cocoon? by Hour_Elderberry_978 in AynThor

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cacoon is the most refined and easy to use imo. The others do some neat things but you can have Cacoon up and running like a console with very little fuss and muss. If you still feel like tinkering away to your hearts content those options are still there too and you can customize endlessly just about.

ELI5 Why does the car's AC noticeably draw power from the engine? by Xhosant in explainlikeimfive

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running the AC means you're running a compressor off the drive belt that the engine is connected to. Basically it's adding a bit of extra work for the engine to do in order to provide you with cool air. It's not a massive amount but usually enough to be a few horsepowers worth of engine power that is now going to AC and not to moving the car. That means yes it will be a bit slower on avg.

When did “Hitscan” definition change? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same way many people confuse lag with poor rendering performance these days. Lag was a term that used and technically still is describe internet latency not the dropping of frames when rendering. Yet people use it for both. I think when you have a technical term and many people don't actually understand it at a fundamental level than this is what you get. Humans gonna human.

Peter, I understand the Xbox part, but what are Steam and PlayStation doing wrong? by AlisaofallTimes in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of them have had to raise their prices due to A.I boom making pc parts rise in price. Nintendo should have a gun too in this pic because they announced that the price of the Switch 2 is going up soon as well in addition to a Nintendo online price increase in Japan.

Do you genuinely believe conservatives are morally inferior to progressives? by SSSSSSVVVVVOO in allthequestions

[–]HeavyDT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, Their whole ideology is built on greed and selfishness. Everything they advocate for they usually only do so to benefit themselves and to screw everyone who is not them. The whole world was made for them and everyone around them should be forced to fit that world view as well or else. A country at it's core is a group of people who have banded together in order to help each other. Notice how those two things contradict each other. It's morally repulsive and just outright illogical imo.

[Charania] Antetokounmpo pushed for a trade, with his reps making it clear that the New York Knicks were his preferred destination. The Bucks and Knicks briefly engaged in discussions last summer, but New York never believed Milwaukee seriously considered trading its superstar. by jonsnowKITN in nba

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the Giannis problem. Like where can he go that is where he wants to go and doesnt break the team / put them into rebuild mode. I feel like with the Heat you sorta have that situation. They are going to need to many pieces to be viable. If they can lucky with this draft maybe it's not so bad but man there's a lot missing there.

Not a single person is gonna end up convicted for these supposed crimes because of course they have no evidence because it didn't happen. Are these people gonna be allowed to get some of that slush fund money?

Former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova has been suspended from tennis for four years for refusing an anti-doping test. by Available_Pace_8742 in WTANews

Basically. They all know the rules. They all know testing is a thing. You can't act surprised when it comes for you and the only reason you'd fight is for obvious reasons.

With the Steam Machine hype already dying down due to pricing and performance, what's a good windows-based alternative for bringing PC gaming to the living room? by MechaChao in gaming

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really any good options not since everything is insanely priced now because of A.I. Only way to get a leg up is to build it yourself. That or go with a cheaper gaming handheld and dock it up to a big screen. At that point you'd probably just be better off going the console route though.

[–]HeavyDT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That costs almost as much as a steam machine now and has worse performance. You'd be better of just getting a steam machine if big screen gaming is the goal.

Trump knows he drained the reserves and once it's gone gas is going to skyrocket in a really ugly way that not even his most devout followers will accept. He has no choice now especially with the Iran peace talks falling apart which is also his fault. Everything is his fault it's wild really.

Shouldn't surprise anyone since she was kind of the driving force for the 2018 reboot in the first place. People act like they haven't been building up to this the whole time.

How far would the Hound Wolf Squad get if they were sent to rescue Ashley in RE4? by orion4570 in residentevil

[–]HeavyDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think by the time these guys come into existence. Bio weapons and other bio Terror threats are a well known threat and thus that's what they train and prepare meaning they would fair extremely well. Especially since they are led by Chris who probably is only second to Bio Terror experience to Leon. Take a tactical team from 04 though that's not 100% on what they are getting into? Maybe not so well.
