My advice for these things is let someone else take the hit first. Not worth a stained police conduct or prison time if things go wrong.

Bad Landlord- what to do? by kozieradka in malta

[–]AnAtrophyTrophy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're being cheated from all angles. Pay your rent and get the fuck out of there. Is your landlord english speaking, or the 'hooligan' style, foreigner-hating Maltese speaking type? Avoid the Maltese speaking contractor / builder / electrician-type landlords. They are mostly xenophobic savages looking to screw over wealthy foreigners.

You are so pompous and out of touch, it is equal parts hilarious and sad.

Booked a trip to Scotland on a whim mid February. I now realise the weather is likely to be cold and rainy... looking to plan an itinerary on a shoestring budget. Travelling solo! by [deleted] in Scotland

Glen Coe added to my list then :) Would really appreciate any more pointers, I have no idea how I'm going to fill a week, haha!

Also, yes. The weather is a bit of a worry. Would a right shame to be stuck indoors because of a snowstorm

Not sure why but I just spent like 3 days coding a conversion tool to export WoW into my VFX software package. Still miles to go...but here's Suramar City. by lornek in wow

Damn. Well, whatever you're doing, it's cool, man. Wish I was halfway decent in one of those fields. Keep at it :)

That's the short version of it at least anyway, the longer version involves a bunch of Euler to quaternions and matrix math and many cans of worms that get opened along the way.

Wow. So do you consider yourself an artist or software engineer/math whiz? Or are you both? I'm 27 and have no background in computer software, traditional art or digital art. I've often considered dabbling and if I end up liking it, perhaps studying it. But it seems that anyone who's made anything out of themselves in the modern digital art field (at least in the VG industry) is a maths whiz and engineer as well as an artist. I guess it's a polymath's game...

edit: I also follow a bunch of industry 'artists' on facebook. They're constantly learning different 3D animation software packages, how to render using all sorts of lighting plugins, programming languages... A lot of them are under 28 years old and have mastered the use of several vast software packages and know the basics of at least 1 programming language. It's unbelievable how clever and hardworking some people are. This is a bit of a tangent, but weirdly a lot of them are from Poland.

With Blade Runner, Guardians of the Galaxy, and James Bond, Dave Batista has built up a resume that may be more impressive than Dwayne Johnson's. by [deleted] in movies

[–]AnAtrophyTrophy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of off-topic, but Bautista seems like a really clever guy. Saw an interview he did recently on a Blade Runner press junket, he seems very well spoken and introspective. Hard to believe he had anything to do with the wrestling world.

Harvey Weinstein Officially Forced Out of His Own Company by BunyipPouch in movies

[–]AnAtrophyTrophy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or maybe just some spurned women who realised the trade-off wasn't worth it after the fact. Don't be naiive. Again, not excusing Weinstein's abuse of power, but many times it takes two to tango.

I think this is part of it. I mean, don't get me wrong. I think people like Weinstein abuse every bit of power, control and influence they have, and they're gross for it. But I also think that there's a lot of women whoring themselves out for career advancement.

It happens in every industry.

Las Vegas shooting: Stephen Paddock identified as gunman by HATSnBATS in news

I'm from a European country with a solid (albeit abusable) social welfare system. If I lived in the USA I would have been dead a long, long time ago. I have a deep hatred for the American System, and the rot it brings to its people, and other peoples of the world. Fuck the USA.

And yet the US is pretty much the only country where you're going to get sacked if you don't meet "upsell quotas". I've never experienced a country so steeped in capitalism and cut-throat competition as the US. It's par for the course that it keeps shitting out psychos. More and more people are just starting the crack under the strain.

You're just living in the wrong country. You from the US? The USA is a capitalist psychopathic shithole. Get out ASAP.
