Heh, pretty sure you'd hate P5. I don't know what TJT is saying when he says the story is not that japanified... It's a social simulator set in a very Japanese version of a high school, complete with a talking cat companion. The story is ridiculous and about as anime as it gets. I thought it...

Ripple is a payment protocol/platform. XRP is the cryptocurrency they created to be used with Ripple, though they claim almost any fiat currency can be traded via Ripple. They are marketing it heavily to financial institutions. It's basically a private Venmo/Paypal, with its own crypto (XRP).

She didn't say shit even after Poe and co went all mutiny and said "THIS IS WHAT WE ARE DOING TO SAVE EVERYONE WHILE YOU JUST SIT THERE WITH YOUR THUMB UP YOUR ASS!" She just sat there and said nothing. And after she regained control, again nothing. This wasn't a case of "This is on a need to...

Yea... Poe escaping? Fine. Finn and Rose becoming the main protagonists? Even worse than what we got.

So I just read up a bit on Stellar and... no thanks. It's not even decentralized and there is very little information on it. EDIT: Oh, it's a fork of Ripple. And the founders of Stellar are claiming that's due to a flaw in Ripple and Ripple is like "fork you bro". See this is the biggest...

No, not really. I'm starting to get crypto fatigue. I'll never bet big on any of them (well, I'll never bet big on any stock or asset in general) and putting a pittance into multiple low value cryptos is just more hassle than I want to deal with in hopes of one of them skyrocketing like BTC...

It's definitely getting some buzz today which will probably push the price up a bit further in the short term

Getting to $10 is still more than 5 times its current value. The train hasn't even left the station yet, it's still a penny "stock". You should think about managing your expectations and maybe not getting ahead of yourself. 2 pages ago you said you put a little money in, not looking to get...

Oh really? You argued with me and then after the fact agreed with the bolded line. You're not too bright. GL with all your future investments.

Why are you guys arguing with this idiot? He's a "bootstrapper" who refuses to pull himself up by his own bootstraps.

I don't think there's much you can do about the responsiveness on PS4. I agree with you there, it's a bit clunky and unresponsive at times. Especially trying to use the radial menu for signs/bombs/potions. Being able to hotkey all that shit on the PC is probably heaven.

They weren't portrayed as "evil". They were portrayed as being as ruthless as the Narcos. They were badass "Don't get in our way, we're taking back our country and we'll do whatever it takes" types. Ya know... typical revolutionaries.

The controls and combat are similar to Bloodborne if you don't go sign heavy (and you shouldn't go sign heavy). The problem is they aren't as responsive and enemies aren't as unique which makes combat feel repetitive after a while if you're ignoring the story aspect of the game and of course...

Guys.... it was a joke. She wasn't even looking at me. Thanks for being bros though.

Another Netflix "Christmas" movie with a great cast. I'd give this one an 8/10, but I like absurdism. Pottersville (2017) - IMDb Some might find it a little boring but I thought it was good. And it's short with just a 1h25m runtime.

Luke wasn't in hiding anyway. He was in bitch mode self-exile. Pretty reasonable for a character to go into hiding to bide their time and wait for an opportunity to strike. That's not what he was doing. He was crying himself to sleep in green milk for the rest of his days because he was sad...

How? Did you accidentally put him on ignore for a while?

Started going back to the gym mid November after a few years on and off (mostly off). After a month of taking it slow and working on some mobility issues and conditioning I started a 5/3/1 Full Body Template this week. My legs are definitely a weak point for me right now so I want the extra leg...

As for the recommendations others have made over the last month to new PS4 owners my input is: Must Buys: Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection Uncharted 4 The Last of Us Remastered Bloodborne Witcher 3 (if you haven't played it elsewhere) Great games worth playing: Horizon: Zero Dawn...

I mean... I'm not wrong.

It didn't take long for this thread to devolve into an "addictive vs habit forming" debate.

Amazon isn't a bank, they don't offer a credit card. They work with a bank to brand a card, that bank is Chase.

Well then you're welcome. Merry Christmas!

I just watched Rogue One last night. That was an actual Star Wars movie. Anyone putting TFA, TLJ or any of the prequels before it must have a twisted sense of humor. God, TLJ is such a bad movie. It's so fucking bad.

It has an audience score of 52%. The 92% is the critics score, and who gives a shit about that?

Hah, shit. I just realized I never watched S3. Thanks for the reminder

Teledoors. More groundbreaking innovation from VR.

It's not a pyramid scheme Brutul. You should read up on the tech and the purpose. You may not agree with it but that doesn't mean it's a scam or scheme. What Cad was referring to is not value as a currency. The people he was referring to aren't using cryptos as currency, they are using them as...

I thought she was basically a direct ripoff of that character in fact. Same mannerisms. Same haircut. Same style of gibberish, child speak.

BTC is not a pyramid scheme and it is, in fact, real. The ideas and tech behind it are solid and it is now being leveraged by financial institutions worldwide (blockchain). The value has skyrocketed because it has become an asset that people are hoarding and it will likely never be seen as a...

The movie fell short in so many respects. There is no plot or character development at all. Stuff just happens.

No. Not at all. It's more like someone saying something because they just want to be left the fuck alone but also don't want people to think they are a sociopath. This movie isn't a social commentary in the least. Or if it was trying to be one it did a terrible job. The characters are just very...

Man, this movie is a shame. It's so goddamn boring. The setting and world have so much potential and it's just a fucking boring story. Will Smith's character is so flippant that he's completely uninteresting as a protagonist. All the character does is pretend to care about social equality while...

No, I just read the Wiki quote.

This isn't true. It's if your grandma wants to invest in it it's too late. It was a safe gamble in the past because you could throw a couple hundred bucks at it and just let it be. Who cares for that kinda money. If you dumped $20k into bitcoin in 2015 you were a lunatic. But you'd have "fuck...

Not in Michigan it doesn't

Turkey and Pastrami seem interchangeable in a Rachel.

This article sums everything about XRP that I believe will make it fizzle out as consumer contender. Everything he talks about has to do with being a bridge currency (something only banks will be interested in) and corporate savings. EDIT: I do think it will see a significant uptick in price at...

I agree with you that Ripple has great potential as a company and a payment protocol. But it is being packaged and sold to financial institutions primarily as a settlement system. It's not anything like Bitcoin or other cryptos. As such I don't think XRP is going to take off because it's not...

It's already #4 as far as Market Cap goes so what's your point?
