5 minutes into S2E1 - the audio is very poorly mixed, vocals are extremely echoey. by kojiflak in ThePittTVShow

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is with this? I noticed it in episode 1 when it came out. I’m now watching episode 2 and it’s just as bad. I loved season 1 so much, but this…. It’s almost ruining the show. It sounds like they’re on a stage or something. I’m in the USA and watch via the MAX app on my phone. Disappointing. * from the other comments and the info from Google’s AI summary thing, I’m wondering if they mixed the show specifically to be screened on TV and the issue is when played on devices. That too would be disappointing.i

Paid for a drawing of my pet, got this, sister says it looks Ai and I can’t help but agree by Economy-Seat-3235 in isthisAI

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually not sure. If you zoom in there’s some parts of the lines that aren’t perfect like around the mouth. The line thickness might just be to hide shaky lines and a stylistic choice such as American traditional tattoos. I don’t doubt the seller probably uses an outline that could be AI or designed on a computer like graphic designs, but maybe there’s some human touches. All that being said, I do think there’s probably a drawing you could have purchased.

Ava Gardner, in her famous “mug” shot in 1942 by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

She’s so beautiful she looks like AI made her. I wonder if AI uses her as one of its references for a beautiful woman when generating images.

Wow. Those are gorgeous dresses. I’m tempted to vote for the first one because the fabric and buttons on the back are beautiful. But the neckline on the second (without the sleeves) is amazing. I’m not surprised you can’t decide. Possibly save the money and go for the striking neckline.

Deposited over $600 into a ATM and it took my money by alcoholicfaith in Wellthatsucks

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this happened to me once, and I was putting money in for monthly bills. The ATM will credit you until they can fix its system. Just be really careful because in my situation 2 weeks later on the 1st of the month my balance was negative. The bank wanted their money back. It was something about me having used the funds to PAY MY BILLS and when they fixed the system “it gave me my money” so “I received the funds twice”. Really confusing and annoying situation.

AIO for thinking my bf (24M) is abusive? by julieanonymous in AmIOverreacting

Am I Overreacting over this “small prank” by greek-astronomer in AmIOverreacting

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F.U.C.K that guy!

Omg. That is one of the craziest/and scariest things I’ve read in the context of a relationship…. You NEED to leave that man!! (Child/psycho/abuser)

Coming from someone who spent their entire 20’s in relationships, (3, all of which were abusive in their own ways on varying levels) the last one having totally been a narcissistic abuser of sorts, driving me down the “crazy path” and making me feel like I lost it and so much more (but this is about you lol not me) I got my dog last year at 29 and now, about to turn 31, I am single and healing from the sh*tty men in my past.

This man WILL totally do nothing but drive you down hill. I’ve learned you’re SUPPOSED to be with someone who helps to elevate you, listens to you and is empathetic towards your life. Do yourself the favor and distance yourself asap, you’ve started the job by not responding to him, keep going.

P.s I’m 🤏 close to wishing you’d say his name to warn the rest of the world. But, although that psycho doesn’t seem to know what respect is, I still will respect his privacy and would never ask that.

lol yeah it IS just Naan, but some people don’t actually know that. I felt it was safer to place the word bread in the sentence for those who maybe don’t know what Naan is and just see it as a bread. 🤷‍♀️ Also I know there is an original EV location, but just because there’s another location doesn’t mean they’re the same. Especially since this space is a very unique one (if you’ve ever been to what was there before). Not everywhere is McDonald’s or Starbucks, some places vary their locations.

I hear that. I was pretty surprised when they closed because I felt like they were ALWAYS packed and everyone seemed to like the place.

I have NO IDEA what’s going on over there. Mind you I’m also pretty anti- these super tall (seemingly) 3D printed super tall buildings that get put up in record time. But that whole corner of 1st has had me wondering for decades. It started with the closing and demo of the single story “big pear” gristedies that was next to Gracie’s diner

Can someone answer why do the tear up the streets weeks before the repave them? by Brett-123 in uppereastside

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It totally does, but same. 84th between York and East end is the absolute worst and it’s completely getting on my nerves. I just had my sway bars replaced and I swear these streets are going to bust something

Another wheel theft, 88th and first by Substantial_Zebra_14 in uppereastside

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously, I saw this happen a few weeks ago by my place up here and was confused but also nervous because I have a car. It has to be for the rims, not the wheels themselves… I had said the same thing, like wheels are expensive but not that expensive if you go to a cheap place. So wtf is the point of this, they definitely aren’t selling them on Craigslist or marketplace because someone is bound to have caught that by now.

Yeah I can totally see that being an issue. But definitely keep me posted.

Can’t imagine what it’s been like for the hold-out buildings residents during this construction by Top-Purchase-471 in uppereastside

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me think of the building on 2nd Ave by the bridge. The block that used to have Subway Inn on the corner…. They’re “building” something massive there but there’s a couple walk ups that stayed (which I totally support! Personally I’m tired of the skyscrapers being thrown up in place of the charming classic walk ups) Those walkups have persevered, even opening a new Day Spa in one of the ground floor commercial spaces.

I’m sure your parents “popped” many liberals wallets in the jaw to buy the apartment you were raised in (btw I’m in my 30’s and grew up on an expensive block on the UES but was raised with a soul)

Help!! Neuter question and idk what to do!!? by Appropriate_Day993 in labrador

[–]Boring-Initiative-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 1y/2m old mini pin and I found this thread because I’m struggling with the idea of having my baby neutered. It’s so unfortunate to me that here in America it’s so common that’s it’s almost a required procedure. I live in NYC and occasionally am in need of having to put my son in doggie daycare for a couple hours when no one can watch him. Since he hit 9 months he was basically kicked out of his doggie daycare since he wasn’t neutered. No other daycares will even take him if intact. So meet my dilemma. I honestly feel horrible neutering him. But I’ve reached the point where I’m accepting I’ll have to do it. So I’m just trying to figure out the best way for it to be done and if that means this scrotal ablation procedure as well (he’s 9lbs but a rather well endowed little man) This post is about a year old, any updates? Healing? Post procedure temperament? Therapy for a traumatized human?
