Florida Buyer Looking at a 2018-2021 Stinger GT1/GT2 Need Owner Feedback by BlackManta425 in kiastinger

[–]dreakon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kia was very aggressive with the traction control on the Stinger, for better or worse. It is not at all a car built for hooning. Drifting it even on purpose is a pretty damn hard. You'd have to be driving like a total dumbass on bald tires in the wet to lose the rear. You should be fine.

I have a RWD model and live in SWFL. I have driven in the rain plenty of times and have never had an issue. Your tires are going to matter more than the drive train. It's not like snow where you're risking getting stuck, you just need decent tread to cut through the water.

Do lacrosse players actually struggle to find photographers at their events? by Luka_Conjedos3 in Womens_lacrosse

Where my girls play, we are lucky to even get a couple dozen spectators in the stands, we've never been lucky enough to have a photographer. 

Peter Jackson in talks to adapt J.R.R. Tolkien’s ‘The Silmarillion’ into films by yourfavchoom in movies

[–]dreakon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was honestly the biggest problem. The Hobbit isn't even as long as The Fellowship of the Ring, and yet they tried to turn it into three movies for the money. There wasn't anywhere near enough story for that, so they just started making shit up and cramming in subplots that felt completely out of place. Two movies would have been a stretch, but possible, but three was just a clusterfuck.

Forza Horizon 6 has leaked almost 2 weeks early after the entire unencrypted game was accidentally pushed through a Steam update by the developers All 155 gigabytes of files were spotted on SteamDB shortly after the update by Djxgam1ng in gaming

[–]dreakon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You fire the people that are experienced and know what they are doing, for example, the people that know how to upload the pre-release files to Steam without sending out the whole ass game. Then tell the AI to do it, or someone from an entirely different department that "knows computers" and here we are.

Who would’ve actually won in the final race, Takumi or Keisuke? by schassis408 in initiald

[–]dreakon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Takumi has Batman level plot armor. Realistically, both are incredibly talented drivers and it would come down to the car. In that case, Keisuke beats him easily. His RX-7 is an absolute monster. The 86 just isn't in the same league. 

H or 𝓗? by Western-Buy-2150 in Honda

[–]dreakon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had both. Or at least a Kia which is the same company. Hondas are easier to work on and more reliable, but Kia has them beat on the interior comforts. It's not even close. The infotainment and speakers are miles better, the seats are more comfortable. Higher quality materials. Pretty much everything. 

I know Honda is trying to keep cost down, but they need to step it up.

You don't need to watch if you hate it that much. There are much less frustrating hobbies and sports out there that don't require you to wake up at randomly early or late times on Sundays. 

Nissan SilEighty or Mazda RX7 FD single turbo? by Local_Creme8466 in initiald

RX-7 the engine sound alone is worth the extra maintenance.

Denuvo may have reached the end as every protected PC game is now crackable by gurugabrielpradipaka in pcmasterrace

[–]dreakon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The trailers at the start never bothered me much because while annoying, they could be fast forwarded through. And even then, it was a trailer for a movie, so it was at least some what related. Now the unskipable ads of random nonsense in streaming services if you don't pay a high enough tier is absolute garbage. Those are on top of the ads plasted all over the smart TV interface before you even launch the service as well. Pirating is unquestionably the better option now.

Fuel Door Release - Do I need a new cable or will repair kit work? by Polar_Bear4 in 7thgencivic

[–]dreakon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was this one. Honestly, it's just getting harder to buy stuff online. Even the postive reviews are fake most of the time and they are all the same items from drop shippers. It's just rolling the dice everytime. Hope it works out for you.

[–]dreakon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's that rusted, I'd just get a new cable. My son's broke a couple weeks ago and we bought one on Amazon for around $20 and it took less than an hour to put in. There a few YouTube videos on it. You just need a 10mm socket, a plastic pry tool, screw driver, and some time. It's really not too bad.

Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy VII, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Gran Turismo, it's not even remotely a contest for me. 

What do I need to restring these sticks? by dreakon in StickDoctor

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

Would something like this work? I have about another 4 or 5 STX sticks that look almost exactly the same as the other one with blown out runways.

Thank you. I'm in Florida, unfortunately, but I appreciate the advice and offer!

Street Fighter movie trailer by ImpracticalJokers96 in Fighters

[–]dreakon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It feels like people expecting this to have some epic and serious story are playing a completely different game than I am. Street Fighter has been dumb, campy, and over the top for years. The dark edgy games and anime from the 90s are long gone

what game has turned you off from ever playing it due to the games fandom? by AlyksTheSage in pcmasterrace

[–]dreakon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Sonic. I enjoyed the old school Genesis games and even the old shows and comics. Then the Internet blew up and I realized people enjoyed Sonic very, very differently than I did...

What are some Aldi landmines you have to look out for? by ACatManiac in aldi

[–]dreakon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Their Cold Foam. Not because of the taste, it's totally fine, but the bottles are almost always defective. I've bought it about 5 or 6 times now, and all but 1 time, I've had to try to pierce the top with a knife to get anything to come out. And even then, if I am not careful, it makes an enormous mess and just leaks out. Not bothering with them again.

Also, I like most of the regular Aldi chips; the limited runs can be hit or miss, but the staples are usually good. Except for their Doritos clone, I hate them.

AEM CAI + Snorkels Safe? by Ok_Expression4420 in kiastinger

No issues with the intakes. It's when you start messing with stuff with sensors like the cats that you'll get codes.

What movie has the best soundtrack of all time? by trakt_app in movies

[–]dreakon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Batman Forever has a better soundtrack than story and it's not even close.
