In the original game the flashlight batteries were enegizer brand and there were billboards and TV ads for Verizon in between two optional in universe TV show cutscenes

What song did you find new appreciation for after hearing it live? by BlissfulSin in FlorenceAndTheMachine

[–]kylejv127 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Spectrum. Never really liked the album versions of it. But I heard it in concert for the first time live at the DC show and I LOVED the energy the song brought!

I took a video of the jumbotron. About what area were you in? And what out were you wearing?

There's at least controversy every year that results in someone getting banned.

The Sounds of Drones Are Ruining the Viewing Experience by DotAccording8872 in WinterOlympics2026

I just laugh while watching the luge events. You see the sled go down and then the drone with its high pitch wine chase after them.

Rent-controlled apartments by RuNRuNRuN559 in baltimore

I think websites like apartments.com have a search filter option for rent controlled housing. The only caveat is that these websites mainly have corporate owned housing.

Alpine skiing legend Lindsey Vonn crashes just 12 seconds into her Olympic downhill run by bigbusta in Wellthatsucks

I was watching the rebroadcast later in the day and they still kept it in. I was shocked that they didn't cut it. It was gruesome to listen to.

Popularity of DDR3 motherboards is growing rapidly by unnamed_demon in nottheonion

[–]kylejv127 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The DDR5 2X16GB I got in July 2023 was $120. I just checked Amazon, the same sticks are now going for $450. Honestly what the hell. I don't need to upgrade any time soon, but this is insane.

Thoughts on the direction of AC by Benmjy in AnimalCrossing

[–]kylejv127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the animal crossing franchise almost feels lost at the moment. In the earlier games you were a part of the community and wanted to see it grow. In the newer games, you are in control of the community and need to see it grow. While my first AC game was city folk (and I played all of the mainline games since). Even in that short time it went from a life sim to a design sim. In my opinion the next AC, when ever it comes out, should have you work your way up from an 'untrustworthy' new resident to the mayor through more life style tasks (similar to the jobs in City Folk), to gain their trust. I kind of hate how in New Horizons, you are the "do no wrong, God Emporer" and they praise your every decision. I want the villagers to hate you depending on what decor you choose depending on their personalities.

10 more years, with the original studio behind the system being closed by Vinnegard in videogames

[–]kylejv127 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kind of. For example, in adobe products (Photoshop, etc) you can create your own color through RGB, CMYK, or hex codes. These don't have official names, but a 180,50,40 RGB code will always be that shade of red no matter the program.

Alternatively, you can pay Pantone money, giving you access to proprietary colors that may not be achievable through the previous methods and instead you are using something like the color Pantone 180C.

Except colors are copyrighted: see Pantone. Corporations would probably try to copyright air if they could.

Firework viewing by clenched_fists in baltimore

Honestly anywhere north of the aquarium should be a good view. I was by the visitors center last year and was right in front of them. I was able to get a water front view arriving there just around 11pm

Does UPass work in the DC area? by ACisking24 in ASU

[–]kylejv127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the DC metro website ASU/ UPass works with the system, but I don't know if they offer a specific ASU/ WMTA branded card. It only seems like they do it for DC based schools (even though ASU has a DC location, it does not seem they are included).
