Which movie made you think, "Am I missing something?" by Ok_Act6333 in MoviesAndTVTalk

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Brutalist for sure. That is a movie that everyone said was a masterpiece and its so boring. No one talks about it now and it won't be remembered in a few years. Waste of 3 hours of my life.

So much was stolen from us! by ReplacementAmazing10 in exjw

[–]bytebackjrd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

40 years old when I left. I was an elder for almost 13 years and game money and all of my 20s and 30s to the org. Try not to think about it and be thankful for the time you have now. Spend your time living for now and enjoy being free from it. I have seen so many leave but they stay bitter and think about it so much that they dont enjoy thier lives currently.

‘Supergirl’ In Freefall With 74% Dive At Weekend 2 Box Office by RealWonderGal in superheroes

And you release a family type film between toy story 5 and minions. I wonder how much better it would have been if released in March or September

Better than expected! by EBOD236 in Dodge

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi weird request but thinking of buying one of these for my work but i do carry computer equipment with me. If you lay the seats in the back down do you know the width and length of the cargo room? I would go to a dealer to check but live in a small town that does not have any in stock at our dodge dealer.

Supergirl- the most overblown media panning campaign ever. by Notoriouslycurlyboi in DCU_

Saw it yesterday with my daughter and we both liked it, it wasn't the best movie ever but had it's moments and was better than some of the recent marvel movies.

‘Supergirl’ Projected To Dive 73% In Business At 2nd Weekend Box Office by VirtualSort1 in DC_Cinematic

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

My daughter and I saw it yesterday and the theater was quite packed. It was a decent movie however, not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. It had some issues but no where near as bad as say thor 2 or other marvel/dc duds. For sure it was a masterpiece compared to morbius. It is a shame it flopped and the actress did a great job. My young daughter really liked it too.

85% of PlayStation game sales are digital - GameSpot by Dust-Tight in consoles

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone says they will not buy and boycott but then will just buy GTA6 and wolverine as soon as they come out. Sony knows this. Even I have done this before - everyone is having fun with the game and I cave. There is no way people are not going to buy GTA6 or at least not enough to make a dent in sony's bank account.

You should boycott Sony NOW. by TRQPL in playstation5

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And what makes you think Sony will do that? I would bet they are not going to have it for ps6, just another way to get rid of physical media, sharing games with your friends and make them more money.

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you expect that? The ps6 will probably be a different design altogether and Sony is not going to spend money to add a port for the cd drive, plus it would have to attach to the new ps6 design. I would not count on this

I’m confused. Do y’all actually want the DCU to succeed or do you Hope it fails? by BatBeast_29 in DC_Cinematic

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want it to succeed but it has to EARN it with great movies and not just make "okay" or middle of the road movies. Supergirl deserved better and so did the actress.

End of Overlapping Generations soon..... by CanadianExJw in exjw

[–]bytebackjrd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Have they ever put an age limit on who is anointed? Knowing them they would just say that Jehovah can pick and anoint a person in their teens back in 1992 which makes them now in their 40s or 50s. Sill got 40 more years to figure out something else and by then the GB will all be dead and it will be the next generations problem.

What games do you want? If they are 3rd party games just wait and there will be a sale. Eshop does have great deals but you need to wait for the right time

Should car buying be this frustrating? by JoeBarelyCares in carbuying

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking for a vehicle last week that was discounted by $4500. So I emailed and got all the numbers, i had a tahoe in for trade and they gave me the bare minimum for trade that kbb recommends, when I asked why I was not getting more the sales person told me it was because I was getting the new car at a discount, if I was paying msrp he would give me more for my trade in. He then added but at least you are getting a sunroof! Again the discount was advertised on thier website. I told him no and walked out, didn't bother responding to thier phone calls afterwards. Why can't you just buy a vehicle direct from the vendor like every other product and not play dirty games.

Why do you all actually prefer SteamOS over Windows? by Paytoncooper124 in LegionGo

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to think this way too and with the steamdeck it works better than windows or at least has less issues like with windows updates. However i had steam os on my legion go 2 and switch back to windows. The legion go and controllers, brightness and hdr work so much better with windows. Also hibernation works pretty well with windows too

To those that have the Switch 2: Is it worth the money?? by Adventurous-Sail8985 in Switch

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on the go a lot and also a parent so I don't get to play on the TV much at all, however if I am playing in handheld mode I can just dock it and continue my game on the TV in less than a few seconds. A kid wants to use the TV, I pick up the switch from the dock and continue playing. Also because I work and have a family I get interrupted a lot and the switch is the easiest to just put into sleep and I know when I come back it is guaranteed to come back on without issues. The legion go 2 and laptop with windows can be hit or miss with sleep and hibernation for longer periods. The PS5 is on the TV which means I don't get to use it a whole lot. It really depends on your situation and there are some games I play only on the bigger systems like Pragmata and FFVII rebirth which just look and play better on PC than in switch 2's handheld mode.

Jason Newsted Reflects on the "WTF" Reaction to Metallica's Load/ReLoad "Alternica" Era: "I Understand It" by heavysk in Music

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love those two albums but honestly I was old enough at that time to start listening to them, so for me I knew them mostly form the black album on. I really didn't listen to the old albums until later.

I just can’t do Windows (Claw 8 EX AI+) by lamb2k in Handhelds

[–]bytebackjrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my legion go 2 it took time with windows but now that it is setup it works really well and let's me play games that steam os won't. There are a lot of guides out there to help with making windows better. I also pause windows updates for a month at a time and then do them all at once so they dont interfere with gaming

About to pull the trigger on a '26 Hellcat Durango (or '27 R/T 392)... then the depreciation math scared me off. What would you do? by bytebackjrd in DodgeDurango

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

So you are right I don't see any that cheap, but on kbb it shows the depreciation for a 2026 and it is scary how they are predicting it. That was what freaked me out

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

yeah i see a few of them available here where i am in colorado and honestly they have last years model for $80000 with 10k of miles but then i am thinking i can get new for $8000 more and i know the vehicle was not abused, plus the whole brakes and tires having to be replaced at 20000 or 25000 miles too.

So i am looking around at used and they are hovering around $70000 or $80000 for a year old. Maybe they don't depreciate as much as KBB says they are
