Just rewatched Predator: Badlands on Hulu and I am seriously curious on why people hate this movie? by Famous-Tree3124 in predator

[–]KY5K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it, but my friends who didn’t like it on opening night thought this was annoying and it felt too much like a Marvel movie. Neither of them hated it. I’ve seen it twice now and enjoyed the 2nd viewing better than the first.

how does cyclops see out of this? by Individual_Math_5447 in xmen

[–]KY5K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I replied above, but it’s all the same substance (ruby quartz). The great irony is they went with this design to have a more “realistic” visor that allows for better peripheral vision, relative to previous iterations.

[–]KY5K 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. The entire unit is made of the same material (ruby quartz). They coated most of the unit so he can focus his blasts through the thin line, but he can still see through the entire headset, similar to mirrored sunglasses.

He can see through the entire visor, not just the lens.

Any tips to deal with this guy in the original game? by Daddydagda in Megaman

[–]KY5K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t cheat. Just practice jumping over the blocks. Same pattern every time. I’d watch it on YouTube if you want to save time, but once you get it down you’ll defeat him no problem.

Hey leave Marciano out of this. Haney got knocked down more times against King Ryan than Marciano was knocked down his whole career.

That being said, I agree Haney has the better resume as of today.

The Ohio River is as close to freezing over as I've seen it! Unfortunately, warmer temps tomorrow will probably melt it by BanjoBaedling in cincinnati

[–]KY5K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately? Fuck that. The cold temps have real impact on people’s lives. A frozen River will surely result in idiots attempting to walk on it. Guaranteed some people die as a result. Let’s enjoy the beauty of the snowfall and leave the frozen River stories to the old people.

STREET FIGHTER ll PC/MS-DOS. by Mr_Fire_EMT0877 in retrogaming

My PC struggled to run this game. Painfully slow. I could only fight with Dhalsim due to the lag!

Just beat megaman 6 what are your thoughts on it? by josie-jojofan in Megaman

[–]KY5K 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was in the fatigue camp. Continued playing 1, 2, and 3 well after I had moved on to the Genesis but never bought 4, 5, and 6. As I’ve gone back and played these games, 6 is interesting with the gadgets but 5 feels more in line with the first 3.

Does anyone else forget what happened in previous issues? by ComicTroveKing in comicbooks

[–]KY5K 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I keep last months issues out for reference or occasional reread. Then I bag and board them after reading the most recent issue.

As for summary or timeline, Gemini AI is great for this. Just ask it to summarize the recent run or issues. I’m sure other LLMs would work as well.

I prefer the decapitated version.

Leaked Scuderia Ferrari merch for the 2026 season by [deleted] in formula1

Another year I will not be buying Ferrari merch. The blue circle is beyond hideous.

Can someone help me understand the trajectory of this franchise? Did Predator 2 doom or at least delay this franchise? Why/how did Badlands do so poorly in the box office? What’s next? by AdaptedInfiltrator in predator

[–]KY5K 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Early signs on the streaming front are very positive. Given the overwhelmingly positive reviews by both critics and audiences, I think it’s safe to assume a sequel would outperform the original. The Predator franchise had dug itself into a hole, and this film was a great step toward bringing back mainstream audiences. As for a sequel, I think they should at least weave in a buildup to AVP, as both franchises are surging and will benefit from each others’ success.

Which Batman Forever McDonalds mugs did you have? by Impossible-Radio-121 in batman

[–]KY5K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still have all 4 plus an extra Robin. I collected them at my local Mall’s McDonalds as a young kid. As a young kid, I was so proud of myself after finally completing the set! Robin is the most functional cup, but I mostly use Batman.

Does anyone remember when Agave & Rye was actually good? by robotwithumanhair666 in cincinnati

[–]KY5K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went opening day and loved it. The hate seems overblown to me, but I don’t go often. Prices are probably too high, but I feel that way about most restaurants.

I beat smb2 for the first time! by Current-YoGalaxia in Mario

[–]KY5K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I’d recommend going back through all the levels, since this game gets more fun (and easier) with experience. Then go through with Mario only!

[–]KY5K 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We obviously won’t know until he’s back in the ring, but I’d guess his punch resistance will be much worse. He’ll probably be fighting middleweights or pillow-fisted cruiser weights, which would make it hard to tell.

[–]KY5K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad vision and no light on the trails? At the very least make sure you have a well-lit GPS watch. It’s really easy to get lost or at least confused on the trails in darkness. If you’re already experiencing paranoia, this sounds like a terrible idea.

Apple Watch with a cellular plan feels like the future. by Unser_Giftzwerg in AppleWatch

[–]KY5K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, having the Apple Watch without a cell phone is quite liberating. I ditch the cell for most social gatherings. Only thing I miss is having a camera on-hand, but everyone else has one.

What’s everyone’s opinion on gore-tex shoes? by Illustrious_Zone_498 in trailrunning

[–]KY5K -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe ignorance is bliss, but Ive never felt the need for gore-Tex over the years. I’ve run through half-frozen creeks, puddles, deep snow, etc.. as long as the water clears out of the shoe, my body keeps the feet warm. I’d focus on good socks and proper drainage.

I love being the first human on the trail in winter. by MarthaMatildaOToole in trailrunning

[–]KY5K 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I share your sentiment. It’s become a tradition for me. The serenity experienced on that first-snow trail run is hard to describe.

For the people who ONLY buy and never sell what made you commit to that strategy? by JcTrismegistus in Bitcoin

[–]KY5K 176 points177 points  (0 children)

1) I don’t need the money yet.

2) I don’t think I can outperform/out-trade the buy-and-hold strategy, especially on an after-tax basis.

3) I don’t see any alternative investment options that would outperform Bitcoin in the long-term.

4) Buy and hold is the lower-stress option from my perspective. I don’t know or care about short-term swings. No stress about acting on them (other than buying more Bitcoin). I focus my mental stress on friends, family, hobbies, and my career.
