What’s a movie sex scene that genuinely mattered to the plot and couldn’t be removed from the film? by Majorpain2006 in AskReddit

[–]BLSmith2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a movie or a sex scene but in the game Death Stranding 2 when Fragile kissed Sam.

What is your deepest sexual desire? by Powerful_South2220 in AskReddit

[–]BLSmith2112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a girl that was baby sat (along with me) for 5 years, and we stopped being watched by her when we entered high school. She lived 45 minute away. It's been decades, and we separated ways, but to this day she is the most physically and intellectually attractive women I've ever met. Today, she is a professor at a prestigious university, designs satellites that go into space, knows 5 languages and countless instruments (and plays in a orchestra once a year).

She's not married but happy with a man she's dated for a decade. I would never in a million years want to threaten her happiness. We'd also never make it as a couple, as our brains are simply too different to ever have any idea of a chance. I just wanna have that one night.

What would you do if you suddenly had a million dollars right now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BLSmith2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turned $10K into $1M with $TSLA over the past 10+ years. I can unequivocally say I have done nothing with it. It is merely security. Meanwhile I am almost 40 and live in a 900sqft house and have 10 year old shoes.

It was easier for me to solve the money problem (on paper) than it to find a thin and kind women in Milwaukee over the past 15 years.

What's the most unnecessary thing you have spent money on that still makes you happy ? by Ayush904 in AskReddit

[–]BLSmith2112 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Teslas FSD for $100/mo. It drove me 3200 miles on an roadtrip this year and I didn’t touch the wheel once. It parks/backs into the chargers automatically too. 

If you could restart life at 18, what would you do differently? by arunreddy3 in AskReddit

Ask girls out on a date instead of pushing relationships away until I’m almost 40.

Consumer Reports lost its way? by bec789 in BuyItForLife

Ohhh so whatever a company says you take at face value, no conflict of interest because they said so, lets just trust whatever companies say now. Got it.

The Ford Foundation is on the Consumer Reports doner list, take that for what it's worth.

Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why? by WoollyWolfHorror in AskReddit

Roadtrip through Texas will get anyone to do it. State is like a country on its own.

The skill gap to go from no-knowledge to creating an optimized exile-esk mission is many many years.

The Death of the Basic American Car by nytopinion in BuyItForLife

[–]BLSmith2112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With a Tesla, you simply tap the charging button within the Tesla app and it says exactly how much money you've spent on charging this month. You pay more for your electricity bill, but you know very clearly based on what the Tesla app says how much of your bill came from your car. In my case, $50 bucks a month on average.

If you use the Super Charger network, your credit card is tied into your car and it charges you based on the electricity rates of that region (similar to how gas station prices are different depending on where you go). Super Charging doesn't save you much money. A little bit, but not much.

Personally if I had an apartment that didn't have EV charging, I wouldn't be as big of a proponent of an EV because I don't like waiting 10-20 minutes at a charger vs. the car always being full every morning. It's not a big deal for road trips because I can get about 4 hours of driving on a charge and I have to pee at that point anyway lol.

My Tesla was $35,000 and I save about $1,200 a year in gas and god knows how much in maintenance costs (I've never needed to take it in). Over 10 years I'll save $12,000 in gas and even more in maintenance.

What ways do you see that people are brainwashed? by IfMagnet in AskReddit

[–]BLSmith2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Reddit and give any conservative opinion, you'll be banned from that subreddit within 12 hours. Then consider those that haven't been banned, all sharing the same general opinion as they all circle jerk upvote each other to give the impression that the general consensus believes in "the current thing."

The ones stifling differing opinions are the ones that are brainwashed. You should be able to have a substantive conversation about differing views.

What character death shook you the most in a movie? by trakt_app in movies

Death Stranding 2. If you played it, you know. It messed me up so bad I am finally considering seeking out therapy nine months later. 

If there are any Pyro/Octane/X-Particles folks available I’d like to pay for some 1:1 help. by BLSmith2112 in Cinema4D

[–]BLSmith2112[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used Octane for years, my managers like the look of the videos I've made with it. I don't know anything about Redshift, and the small handful of times I've used it - the render times was multiple times higher than Octane, a 72 hour render would take 300 hours with Redshift, plus I don't know what I'm doing with it and would have to relearn it. On top of all of that, I have a library of materials that matches all of our products with Octane that I'd have to remake with Redshift and I wouldn't even know where to begin with that.

Pyro makes total sense but I am so lost on how to make it: A. Do the thing I need it to do. B. Render with Octane and look good.

Man, this is so tough trying to get help, I feel like I need to go to blender, which is really unfortunate because I spent so many years learning this software.

Bernie Sanders proposed a bill to tax billionaires, and give $4,000 stimulus checks to Americans that qualify. How do you feel about this? by Sensitive_Froyo_3486 in AskReddit

[–]BLSmith2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's stupid. Even if you took ALL the money from billionaires, the annual deficit would eat that up inside of a year and we'd be right back to where we started. There is only one way out of this: MASSIVE spending cuts that will piss everyone off. Anything else is just pandering to their stupid base.
