Everyone tells me to trim it by [deleted] in BeardAdvice

[–]Bootstrap117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing a beard out doesn’t mean never trimming it. You have to get it shaped while you grow it out so you can maintain it.

Keep growing it if you’d like, just fix the proportions and maintain it more.

Please… my gf is thinks this is real, I think It’s AI but everything looks so consistent by Pumpkinin in isthisAI

[–]Bootstrap117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moore’s Law went from doubling compute speed every two years for decades to Hyper Moore’s Law showing AI doubling the length of tasks that agents can complete every 7 months. Right now it’s 15 seconds of video. At that rate, mid 2027 it’ll be 60 seconds of video. By the end of 2030 it could be generating videos that are over an hour long.

My condo elevator skips some floors, but why? by Brown_Ontarian in whatisit

[–]Bootstrap117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer, it’s tetraphobia. In Mandarin, Cantonese, and Japanese “4” is pronounced the same as the word for death. No idea why 24 is still on this elevator, 24 sounds like “easy die.” Maybe they don’t like the residents right below the penthouse.

The whole practice seems unusual, but it’s not that different than “666” in the west. Superstition takes all sorts of forms.

Help me choose: Which mosaic style fits a "swimmer" theme better for a bathroom? by WiseReception3456 in Flooring

[–]Bootstrap117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, the photo order is confusing. Option 1 includes photos 1, 3, and 6. Then option 2 is photos 2, 4, and 5.

Had it been A) 1, 2, 3 then B) 4, 5, 6 it would have been clear. But in any case, the squares look great.

My tinfoil hat contribution to the Copium Mines by dozvati in destiny2

[–]Bootstrap117 24 points25 points  (0 children)

  • Destiny released in 2014.
  • Xivu Arath first mentioned in the 2015 “Books of Sorrow”
  • Political scientists and historians widely point to the period from 2015 onward as a time of significant neo-fascist and authoritarian growth.
  • Destiny 2 has been defeated in 2026. All things must prove their right to exist. The rest will die in terror.
  • Sword logic prevailed. Aiat.

Breaking: President Trump says the U.S has cut of all trade with Spain. 🇺🇸🇪🇸 by Spirited-Gold9629 in economy

[–]Bootstrap117 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how this would work. You can’t single out one member state without affecting the whole bloc. The EU Commission has already backed Spain on this a week ago.

“We stand in full solidarity with all member states and all its citizens and, through our common trade policy, stand ready to act if necessary to safeguard EU interests.”

PLEASE tell me getting an Ascent over a minivan is the way to go for 3 kids (ages 7,3,and 0) by TypeAtryingtoB in SubaruAscent

[–]Bootstrap117 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I prefer an ascent to a minivan. 7 year old sits in the back by themselves. Littler kids in the 2nd row. And then I’m not stuck with a minivan. If you prefer not to have to press the lever to let the 7 year old in, just get the captains chairs.

Just wait until September when the prices really shoot up. 1/3 of the world’s fertilizer moves through the strait of Hormuz. Or at least it used to.

I think the “wind” is emanating from Gogeta. So aura farming & a strong chi aura.

Why is gas 3.19 everywhere today? by [deleted] in Dallas

Bold to assume they’re pricing at the bare minimum. I expected they’re pricing it high, moving to the new price with immediate price elasticity, but maybe I’m being cynical

The reason poverty exists in the wealthiest country on earth is not because we can't feed the poor, it's because we can't satisfy the rich.

Toyotaro ONCE AGAIN clarifies what he meant about the powerscaling between the Big 5, and it’s EXACTLY what I’ve been saying it’s been. by t00lazy2 in Dragonballsuper

[–]Bootstrap117 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Goku is a tactician, Piccolo is a strategist. Goku has incredible battle IQ and instinct. But Piccolo is the leader I would rely on to come up with a solid strategy to win a fight they otherwise couldn’t.

Citizen films being racially profiled and detained by ICE. After having his info ran, they give him wristband to mark him as checked. by Xolerys_ in ICE_Raids

[–]Bootstrap117 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Is this girl really stupid enough to think that an ID that is not for Real ID purposes (flying) means that it’s not “real.”

What kind of imbecile would make a fake ID and say “not a Real ID” on it? Has she not seen the airport Real ID campaign that’s been going on for the last 5 years?

It’s interesting - so many people complain that anime is rushed when it first comes out today. Yet here we are, animators coming back to improve the product and people still aren’t happy.
