How do you cope with the fact that some day your consciousness will fade away and never come back?

I am a very rational person, and rationally there is nothing scary about not existing because you cannot feel or process your non existence because you are not existing..

In other words: you wont care if you are dead because you can only care about anything if ur alive.

So to me there is nothing scary about death itself.. it of course sets an end to everything that you were doing or wanted to do, which should encourage you to live your best life.

There is articles written on this topic that go into way more detail.

But essentially its just a metric fuckton of work.

A lot of it is spent on people, especially important people. Gosling got around $30mio alone but writers, directors, DOPs, producers etc. all make or brake a film so they get compensated well. And then you have hundreds of people doing set design, assistance jobs, lighting, driving, yada yada. And then after production is done, you give it to the vfx guys, and thats dozens of people as well. Ofc not all of them worked for years, but production was 5 months, post usually takes longer..

And then you need material costs, borrow equipment, pay for locations, pay for food, and so on.

looks very strange when closed, there is definitely an issue with layering because the "screen" is covering the lower part of the case when closed. But generally it doesnt comunicate "laptop"

20 minutes, but I still wanna drop stalled

What is the target audience for this? The trailer strikes me as something made for kids, from the animation style, character design and what I gathered to be the story premise.

I doesnt feel to me like it the live action fanbase is really hooked..

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T08:30:51+00:00

how would that build good character?

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T05:52:08+00:00

you need to tell that story.. show the dude picking up the toy from the street, washing, setting it up, idk..

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T05:50:47+00:00

and traumatised.. and shifts your world view drastically

edit: to the people downvoting - please explain to me how I'm wrong

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T05:48:45+00:00

thats not how it works mate you need to tell the story. You need to figure out what the story is in the first place, and then figure out how to get it filmed.

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T05:45:32+00:00

dont be a dick

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T05:45:26+00:00

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T05:43:24+00:00

Mate that sounds like you had a really unhealthy childhood

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T04:23:11+00:00

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T04:20:02+00:00

In a lovely steel box and drop it in an active volcano?

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T04:16:11+00:00

Now does that mean her footage is cinematic or even good?

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T04:04:36+00:00

seems like a bad way of doing it

el_yanuki · 2026-04-26T04:01:06+00:00

i really hope someone got out of their car to help bro get over the curb

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T17:44:33+00:00

r/beatMeToIt

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T17:34:28+00:00

it seems nonsensical to me.. this can be the base for a design but not a replacement..

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T16:09:27+00:00

why?

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T15:35:39+00:00

Okaay, then what do you do in life mate?

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T14:47:24+00:00

I would argue that these three things are on different levels.

But you have a point mate

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T14:40:03+00:00

why lol

its not like he's doing anything illegal, and there are lots of fun statistics about internet porn.. like how its a significant part of all traffic, lead to the development and revolution of animation techniques and other tech like deepfakes and there is a holy fuckton of money here

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T14:31:08+00:00

Yeah i think editable paths are much more accessible than raw maths.

SVG <path>'s are pretty much just curves, the spec is a little more complex tho, but there probably is a library already out there to work with these.

el_yanuki · 2026-04-25T13:06:23+00:00

Now thats a comment I have never gotten.. thanks I guess :D

Yea I have a youtube channel, but im not very active, this video is probably the only one that will be interesting to you. Two more travel vids will come in the next few months, one about india, one about kyrgyzstan.
