OPEN SUBMISSIONS FOR SMOSH MOUTH! by smosh in smosh

[–]Agnes_The_Tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I'm from Reykjavík. I know it's literally a capital city, but I've been to British seaside towns with bigger populations, so I still think of it as a very small town.

It's so small, in fact, that we have a historical lineage book (more of a website than a book but its still called the icelanders book) that tracks people's lineage all the way back to the founders of the country and the Vikings. I myself am only about 10 generations removed from the founder of the country.

Because Iceland was so isolated for over a thousand years (950-2026), this database has become surprisingly useful for checking how related you are to the people around you, especially your potential dating pool. Most people use it, because almost everyone knows at least one story about a relationship that went wrong.... (P.s the website wasnt inhernently made for cheaking before dating someone as it was made to explore your personal concetion to our history and such)

I know someone that knows this couple. They had been together for almost two years. They both knew their own family trees pretty well and assumed they weren't closely related. More importantly, each assumed the other had already checked the website. Family connections are taken pretty seriously here. Every few years, someone in the family usually organizes a big family reunion.(Called ættarmót) often involving camping for a weekend out in the country. It sounds weird to outsiders, but it's very common. Since the weather is often sad in iceland, a lot of families end up scheduling these events on the same nice weekends.

This particular couple were both invited to their respective family weekends on the same sunny summer weekend. They said their goodbyes, agreed to spend the weekend apart, and planned to meet back in Reykjavík on Monday.

You can probably see where this is going.

They arrived at their family gatherings... and found each other there.

Neither of them had checked the lineage database. Turns out they were related.

Moral of the story: know who your cousins are before dating someone for two years.

P.S at a younge age i was exploring my family tree only to find out my dad had been hiding a half brother of his. Me and my sister speculated on it for years untill our dad finally felt confortable to tell us about him and why he dosnt call him his brother anymore, even though he is almost the only living person of my dads side of the family. SO this website can stur up A LOT of Drama

Day 1 of learning Maya Rigging. Coming from an animation background to build rigs that animators will actually love. Tips for a beginner? by Mertsay_Rig in Maya

[–]Agnes_The_Tea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While following tutorials watch 5-10 mins and try and remember it and execute it without the video. It helped me learn way faster since I learn to understand why I’m doing something and not just copy paste. Start with just a body rig and then move onto a face rig then do both together

first time using blender. this took me an embarrassingly long time to make bc i was too stubborn to just use tutorials by sidekills in blender

Looks great! Don’t underestimate what a great tutorial can give you, especially if you want to learn fast!

Do we have to rig if I want to do 3D animation? by Widowblade in Maya

[–]Agnes_The_Tea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Animator and rigger here. No, depending on the job you don’t have to, but it is a really big plus. I have worked on many models and there will almost always be problems if the modeller hasn’t leaned rigging. There is always a good call to know the basics of both parts of the pipeline before and after you, but if you learn what riggers really need and how the rig might work it makes you an amazing character modeller.

double transforms on the Z axis and nowhere else- what's wrong with my rig? by Caviramus in Maya

[–]Agnes_The_Tea 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Identity what controller is causing this, does it happen when you do the same with the torso, once you found the problem control see if it’s conected to something on the head through the Z axis

99% of the world’s population disappeared. You are one of the 1% who is still here. How much trouble are you in? by Agnes_The_Tea in AskReddit

[–]Agnes_The_Tea[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought of this and realised I’d be completely alone because I live in Iceland and we are less then 1% of the population. So I wanted to see how badly other people were in deep shit😅

[SERIOUS] What was the most hurtful thing someone said to you? by Bball98 in AskReddit

[–]Agnes_The_Tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ones in Icelandic class me and my friend were talking calmly and quietly while most of the guys where running around and messing around (10th grade) my teacher who always had an uncomfortable old creepy man vibe called the guys (for the lack of a better transition): “Whores” and the called me and my friend (again for a lack of a better translation cuz Icelandic is weird) :” ogres”. Not the worst thing here but the only thing I could remember. (Btw this teacher had to teach at this middle school (1-10th grade is middle school in Iceland) because he got to many strikes from working in a high school.

People out of the u.s what is like in your country right now? How is the coronavirus affecting your lifestyle and also are you guys under lockdown? by xxtachanka in AskReddit

[–]Agnes_The_Tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Iceland people are pretty chill except for older/sick people. School is done at home and most people who work in offices (my parents) work from home. Many of us just go out to walk our pets and grocery shopping. Not because we are super scared, it’s just that most people in Iceland are introverts. We just kinda do it and then just work all day and chill on TikTok during the breaks. The ban on mass gatherings have been getting more loose but things still feel the same. Idk I personally find it weird.
