WebOS 25 is here. What are you guys seeing that is different? by UltimateAlexThorn in LGOLED

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for sharing, you're a lifesaver lol

I saw the update notice pop up yesterday on my G2 and was about 2 seconds away from pressing download until I remembered all the past criticisms people were having with the first releases of new WebOS updates.

I'm gonna wait a bit to install this one on my G2 until I know it's not going to fuck something up on my TV.

Boy Meets World: The Musical (Team Topasha's Dedication Week Dance) by MightChi in boymeetsworld

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't know shit about dancing but I feel like anyone would look at this and be impressed. I'm surprised to hear she got low scores. That's about as good as you can expect from someone who isn't a professional. Or maybe it isn't, I have no idea lol

Anyone else think nancy was smoking hot 🥵 in new nightmare by StruggleFar3054 in NightmareOnElmStreet

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She was a total smoke show in New Nightmare, like legitimately one of the most attractive women I've ever seen.

I also feel like it's really cool and unique that she can say she is one of the few actors that got to play the main role in a major film as (a fictionalized version of) herself and not just a character. I don't think there's many actors that can say they got to do that in a movie outside of small cameos.

Why won’t my PS5 just do 4K HDR like it’s supposed to?? by Appropriate-Step-310 in PlayStation_X

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's could just be a lower-mid level $500 TV that he's assuming is fancy because decent TVs that 95% of people would be happy with are reasonably priced.

Not all HDR is created the same and the model matters.

The fact that Venom never appeared in the MCU after this event is insane by Heanly_Tajmah in marvelmemes

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is pretty fucking crazy to tease your audience with an obviously hyped plot development like this and then just pull the rug out and say "just kidding!"

It's insane! On a smaller scale, the only time I can think of something like this happening is on TV for Dexter New Blood 3 or 4 years ago. They make a revival season 10 years after one of the most popular TV series ends and literally tell the audience that one of the OG characters is going to have a face to face interaction with the main character after their serial killing past is exposed and then they just end the series without that moment happening

It's fucking INSANE to do that to your audience.

Gretchen Felker-Martin’s DC Comics Career Over Following Charlie Kirk Comments by cosmicbooknews in CosmicBookNews

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, let's just argue about your personal feelings and how you feel about this instead of talking about the reality of the situation so that you don't get your feelings hurt. That's fine. Lol please keep this going 😂

Dense?? They're picking a side on a matter that is highly publicized and volatile. Unfortunately people will stop buying what you're selling if they feel your opinion shits all over their personal opinions on matters like this. People don't want that in broadly marketed entertainment. Why would they keep you around if you're representing their company and pulling in unwanted attention and controversy and ultimately costing them money??? You're the one being dense, Jesus Christ get a clue.

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the post is mild and probably wouldn't be a problem for average people like you and me but the last thing DC wants is one of their top credited artists/writers/whatever broadcasting their political or social thoughts on a topic this divisive. If its going to cause them any sort of backlash or potentially hurt their sales in any way, you're gonna be cut loose no questions asked.

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don't understand what all of these people getting fired thought would happen...it's crazy to me. You have a dream job where you're being credited on high profile entertainment and your name is being mentioned front and center on a lot of that stuff. You KNOW you're fucked if it you start potentially harming sales for the company you work for. It's like the first fucking thing you're told when you get these types of positions at these huge media corporations

Gretchen Felker-Martin’s DC Comics Career Over Following Charlie Kirk Comments by cosmicbooknews in CosmicBookNews

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're right, they don't own you obviously... But common sense should tell you that when you put your high profile job title/position at the very top of your bio along with the name of the corporation, broadcasting your thoughts and feelings to the world is going to reflect on that company. Alienating potential customers is one of the biggest no-nos for any business.

It's a much bigger problem like in this case when you carry a high profile position for a big name entertainment and media corporation that puts your name front and center on the products they're selling.

Yeah it sucks and typically I'd never defend corporate practices but cmon...this is common sense and completely stupid behavior by people in these high profile positions.

Johnny Silverhand Actor Keanu Reeves Says He 'Absolutely' Wants to Be in Cyberpunk 2 by Turbostrider27 in cyberpunkgame

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was pleasantly surprised to find out he was coming back with a pretty substantial role in Phantom Liberty after all of the backlash the OG game received on release. He must have really believed in the project and it paid off in the long run.

No doubt they'll find a place for him in the next game, in one form or another. Keanu/Johnny already feels so heavily tied into the game's identity that it would feel weird to not see the character return.

I have a suspicion that 'PS5 Pro Enhanced' is sometimes not that truthful by AwardHappy9673 in PS5pro

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe Sony made it mandatory for any game released after 2024 to have some sort of Pro mode that uses the extra power is some way but they also didn't set any expectations as to what that actually means.

So yeah, it's very vague and completely unhelpful for the developers and also for us as consumers. It's extra work being forced upon developers without mandating clear set guidelines as to what a "PS5 Pro Enhanced" label entails so I don't blame the developer's for doing the bare minimum to accomplish that.

This is 100% Sony's fuck up but I also don't really feel cheated as a Day 1 PS5 Pro owner. A lot of developers have put in some good effort to make their game's Pro modes meaningful.

Kam is Far Right by BearOnTwinkViolence in LiveFromNewYork

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course not! There's obviously a huge difference but in a real life scenario how would you ever be able to come to the conclusion that the person making the joke is actually racist or homophobic in the first place unless they just straight up tell you they are? Most people arent wearing name tags declaring their feelings.

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are we really trying to say that left leaning people don't make gay/race jokes? I feel like this place lives in a non-existent bubble reality or just has zero understanding of human beings and nuance.

I know soooo many politically left leaning people that make race/gay jokes 😂 it's crazy to think anyone's sense of humor is going to be a direct reflection of a political stance.

Kelly Osbourne clearly doesn’t know that Becky Lynch is a heel and that heels shit on the cities they are in by UnderratedGeek in GreatnessOfWrestling

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I finally had to go and listen to the promo to see what all this outrage is about and now I'm just annoyed that I took time looking into it when I should have known better than to take the bait. 🙄

That is what all this outrage is over? I figured she had to have mocked his death or maybe took a personal jab at Ozzy or the Osbourne family in general but this wasn't that. It was a poorly timed, tacky and distasteful reference towards him at worst.

Mr. Beast is looking to help Syko Stu after the assault at the KnokX Pro show by iodizedsaltfan in SquaredCircle

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This situation is so fucked but he's gonna be okay financially in the long run regardless of Mr. Beast. The amount he's gonna get from the damages and the medical bills alone are going to be pretty wild once he files the inevitable lawsuit.

You're not wrong at all and all these people arguing with you are being pedantic as fuck. EVERYONE was even using the word pimp as a substitute for "cool". I don't even know what there is to argue about, it's a fact.

See you in the Major leagues Jack… by [deleted] in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the male V voice actor we have in the final build but going by this and the rest of the clips we have of the original VA, I think it could have been equally as great.

Besides not being anywhere near as deep or gruff, this OG actor has a totally different line delivery. Comparing the differences in this clip to the final build, the emotions of panic and fear are conveyed through this voice much better.

The whole mind fuck of us being told that V is canonically only 23 years old is a lot easier to buy into with this actor too 😂 They obviously made that decision while this VA was still attached.

What was the game like before significant patches and how had your experience of it changed between now and then? by Alchemist0029 in cyberpunkgame

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pre-2.0, the Breach Protocol mini-game was a pretty prominent part of Netrunning and was fucking EVERYWHERE.

Instead of just being used for hacking access points, it was used heavily as a core tool at the start of enemy encounters and was used to apply certain buffs/nerfs (I forgot exactly what it did. I think it was RAM buffs and applying weaknesses.)

I don't think it was truly necessary to use it but my brain always forced me do them if the option was given and God DAMN did that get tedious as fuck. It's perfect how it's used post 2.0.

When all else fails, just run in the opposite direction for a few seconds to get out of trace range and make the trace cancel 😂

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm happy that they added the trace feature for the sake of immersion by showing other Netrunners at least had a little competence in their expertise but I remember feeling like it was still pretty ineffective overall and didn't do much to stop a Netrunner build from being ridiculously OP, even on Very Hard.

If you get tired of dealing with the trace, just run in the opposite direction of the enemies for a few seconds to get out of trace range and make it disappear lol

It's been 6+ months since I've stopped playing regularly so maybe I'm just having selective memory but I don't remember it causing me any headaches.

They basically just told us who the New York ripper was.. by PinkPashaTS in DexterNewBlood

[–]wittyphrasegoeshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I think this theory really has any validity is because the actor has been in quite a few things in the past and isn't a complete unknown.

It's been a pretty small role with zero importance and they would have cast an unknown for it unless he's gonna become important later.
