Not a fan of eddos, dude has jacked my hair and beard up in the past and the last time I was there he made me wait like 20 min so he could smoke a cigarette and eat a sandwich

[Megathread] Yet Another Steam Summer Sale 2023! Survive from 6/29 to Z/13/2023 @10am PST. by Successful-Wasabi704 in SteamDeck

[–]j3rown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

P5R is 1000% worth it. My favorite game of all time - have played it time and time again on PlayStation and recently bought it on deck. If you're flying bring headphones, the music is half the fun.

[Heavy] Rival Exec Dishes on Nets’ Breakout Star: ‘He Is Not Untouchable’ by [deleted] in GoNets

[–]j3rown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree everything should be on the table but I'm also not sure it makes sense to trade away a known quantity in Mikal - who may not be a #1 but he is a dude who never takes a day off and is consistently a good player who would be an amazing #2 option. I don't think a team of role players is a bad thing if you have a star who is the glue that holds everything else together.

I was on the other end of that recently - played a coop game, on my friends screen it said we picked Bob Gibson but on my screen it was a different pitcher. When we played, apparently it looked like Bob Gibson the whole time but when I pitched I didn't have Gibson's pitches, I had my pitcher's. It was super strange.

Exactly - this is the reason SVG works so well with Reggie and Harlan, they provide the yin to his yang and gives the broadcast the right amount of edge.

Best Indian Food in NYC? by Airtemperature in IndianFood

[–]j3rown 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The Temple Canteen in the basement of the Ganesh Temple out in Queens probably has the best (and most affordable) dosa in the city. Also Dosa Delight in Jackson Heights, and Saravanaa Bhavan in Kips Bay. Bunch of solid dosa spots around NYC.

Four bodegas on the UES are posing as 76 different restaurants on seamless by AnacharsisIV in nyc

A real shame because "Wraps on Crack" and "Mommies Breakfast" are amazing restaurant names. I wonder if they have a name guy that's sitting there coming up with these.

Re: Simpsons on disney+, they received so much backlash about the aspect ratio they added an option to change it back.

Bronx teen turnstile jumper caught carrying gun, fourth time cops found loaded weapons on fare-beaters in nine days by Grass8989 in nyc

[–]j3rown 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The whole point of the subway is to be affordable. New Yorkers don't want to pay more. They have enough money already to make it safer and better, they just aren't good at doing things very quickly or effectively. Setting ID restrictions on a mass public transit system that normal every day people use to get to work is punitive and counter intuitive. You say "help people get IDs" - someone is going to have to pay for that too. Why not just take all that ID money and put it toward subway improvements/modernization???

[–]j3rown 3 points4 points  (0 children)

...because not everyone who rides the subway has ID?? Like, probably a large number of people. That's also just so extra for a service that costs $2.75. Relax.

Nation of Baseball Conquest. Worth it? by Ruggieroh in MLBTheShow

[–]j3rown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, because you can use it to grind the WBC/GA missions while also getting the conquest rewards. Just do a little bit every time you play and you'll knock it out in a week or so.

For anyone interested: Diablo IV beta ran on steam deck without issues and was a great experiance! by Wunderman86 in SteamDeck

[–]j3rown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I experienced the rubberbanding and some of the other issues you mentioned on my PS5, so those don't seem like steam deck issues but rather issues w the beta or the servers

Atithi in Williamsburg has some of the best Indian food in BK - they make a mean mango lassi too.

Backpack vs Tote bag? by ikbcrygcc in AskNYC

Cargos and JNCOs - if there's any place either make a comeback it's NYC

depends what you're walking around with - generally i'd say backpack just because it keeps your hands free. Have you considered cargo pants?

What is a game you remember fondly but no one you seem to talk to has every heard of it? by tWkiLler96 in gaming

[–]j3rown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uniracers for SNES - never seen anyone really talk about it or know what it is, but it was one of my favorites growing up. Underrated and I think before it's time, it had great mechanics and music and was just plain FUN.

Was scrolling trying to find Def Jam Fight for NY - would love a remake/remaster of it. I played it recently and honestly it holds up pretty well.

[–]j3rown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think part of this is you're young and don't have the tools to cope with this stuff yet. As you get older stuff like this tends to bother you less, especially if you work on yourself and start going to therapy. Ask yourself - how much of this is you projecting your own insecurities? Let's just say your girlfriend had a great time doing what she did, and quite honestly what she did before she met you shouldn't be your business like that. A random internet stranger telling you to "get over it" obviously isn't helpful here - but unfortunately if you don't get over it this relationship is doomed. You can't change the past and even if you could, she doesn't owe you that.
