Topic | ITT: I play Kingdom Come Deliverance (ongoing spoilers) |
Taharqa_ 02/17/20 9:42:34 PM #434 | I just installed it and started playing. The beginning part kind of seems like a drag, interesting game so far though. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |
Topic | Pope slaps overzealous woman's hand |
Taharqa_ 01/02/20 12:03:16 PM #44 | The Pope was in the right to stop her by tapping her on the hand in that instance. The man is in his 80s and likely has degenerative arthritis, she jerked him pretty hard and could have hurt him. She probably meant no harm and was a little overenthusiastic but you still have to respect a person's personal space. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

Taharqa_ 01/02/20 11:59:27 AM #48 | 12amMadman posted... It's probably because I'm selfish but mainly because I don't want the responsibility. "You don't know the joy! Y-you don't know the joy!" It's always folks that have kids that try to pressure people without kids to start making babies. Meanwhile y'all are going where you want and doing whatever you want to do lol. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |
Topic | If you dont have kids.... why not? |
Taharqa_ 01/02/20 11:57:07 AM #46 | But seriously though kids are expensive, and right now that's kind of overriding my biological urge to procreate. I'm in the process of trying to build wealth and assets. I want to make sure that I have my kid in a good spot to succeed. Also I'm 34, if I have children first off I want to be married. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

Taharqa_ 12/31/19 9:11:32 AM #3 | Ryven posted... Thats the biggest thing that pisses me off about the new trilogy, among other things: Han and Luke never had any screentime together. Total bullshit. And now with Carrie's passing we'll never get to see that. I think that's what pisses me off about this trilogy the most. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |
Topic | 65 inch Samsung OLED for $700, yay or nay? |
Taharqa_ 12/31/19 9:10:13 AM #1 | At Best Buy, catch is that it's a floor display and it has a dead pixel. I didn't even notice it until the salesman pointed it out but he was like "Bro, it's $700". 65 inch OLEDs are usually always priced at 2k or up. The dead pixel doesn't bother me but the fact the it's a display TV is kinda worrisome, I'm thinking about it though. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |
Topic | College Football Playoff topic anyone? |
Taharqa_ 12/29/19 11:29:55 AM #42 | OSU had their chance to step on Clemson's neck in the 1st half (especially when their most reliable receiver went out) but they didn't. Clemson defense did their part to keep it from getting out of hand. When they were held to three FGs I immediately thought that they left the door open, then boom two TDs by Clemson to close the half and it was suddenly a game again. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

Taharqa_ 12/24/19 2:06:34 PM #34 | 2SweetforTurtle posted... The prequels told a far more coherent story compared to the sequels and thats saying something. The only bad things about the prequels were that George Lucas wrote the script himself instead of using someone who actually understood how humans speak to one another, and Hayden Christiansen and Natalie Portmans performances. Like hire real script writers to work with Georges story and two actors who actually cared a fraction of what Ewan McGregor cared, and youd have the best SW trilogy by far. This is true. The sequel trilogy had no direction, no plan or vision and the movies suffered as a result in a disjointed mess. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

Topic | Probably the worst thing about living in the UK is manual transmission cars. |
Taharqa_ 12/23/19 11:08:54 AM #53 | Steve Nick posted... The 10 speed automatic they put in Ford Mustangs is more efficient than any of those plebs are going to be with their manual transmissions. I mean dual and single clutch transmissions are more efficient than actually taking your hand off the steering wheel to change gears, unless you have superhuman reflexes then that's a fact. But you also don't have the engagement in autos that you do with manuals, it takes away from the fun of it and makes the experience feel more robotic. Drove an R35 GTR and while it's a marvel of engineering I could feel myself getting bored with it after a while. That's why I'm glad Porsche decided to keep the manual option for the GT lineup of their 911 and Cayman. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

Topic | Would you rather have a Native American or a Woman as the US president? |
Taharqa_ 12/23/19 8:30:29 AM #34 | For me it doesn't matter if the person is a Native American or a woman. I'd rather have anyone that's sane, does not have Narcissistic Personality Disorder, has an attention span longer than a goldfish, has respect for the rule of law and our governmental institutions, and is not the 3rd gen head of a white collar crime family. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

Taharqa_ 12/23/19 7:59:41 AM #17 | DanHaren2019 posted... The only good argument for manual is that its more fun, which it most definitely is. All other reasons listed are just bullshit. But having a manual commuter car has its downsides too. Often times I'm juggling several things in my hand and manual is just that much harder when ur multitasking. Why are you trying to multitask when driving? Are you messing with your phone? --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

Topic | Another pit bull kills their owner |
Taharqa_ 12/22/19 7:38:11 PM #32 | MarqueeSeries posted... Unfortunately for this argument, the science doesn't always agree with you. The only real Pit Bull is the American Pit Bull Terrier. If those pedigree papers don't have lineages of historic pit fighting dogs then it's not a Pit Bull. Most of these curs and man biters are bully breed mixes and mutts. Most people can't ID a Pit Bull as is, and using the term "pit bull" as a catchall term to describe four different breeds with very different breed standards just adds to the confusion. All of them have been separate long enough to be different breeds. --- "If you want to move fast, practice slowly...if you want to move like lightning, practice in stillness." |

I assume because he was willing to forgive and redeem the tyrannical murderer of billions, but not the kid who hadn't done anything wrong yet All of this. They didn't fucking earn it in TLJ. People don't have a problem with Luke having a moment of weakness but it has to be built up, not some 30 second flashback.

They didn't send him to tell him, the guy was giving him a heads up and Kennedy managed to record the conversation. The bank fired the guy who told him.

They dont see people like you a lot. Mr. Kennedy recorded the conversation and shared it with The New York Times.

And it completely lacks exclusives, making a gaming PC objectively superior. If you have a gaming PC there was really no need to get an X-Box One.

Topic | Yahtzee - Jedi Fallen Order is about as good as AAA can be now so it's great |
Taharqa_ 12/04/19 1:25:00 PM #12 | It's a 10/10 Star Wars game, a 7/10 for the rest of it. The combat is a bit like Dark Souls/Sekiro but nowhere near as fluid as either one. The traversal is like Uncharted but can also be a bit janky when wall running and jumping, you'll fall...a lot. It can be hard, not in a Souls hard way, but more of a cheap kinda fashion. If I die in Souls/Sekiro/Bloodborne then I can see how I fucked up and it doesn't feel cheap. In Fallen Order on a lot of my deaths I was like WTF. It's not perfect but maybe if a sequel comes out they can iron out the kinks. It does things just good enough gameplay wise to not kneecap the whole experience.
