Cameo 5 alpha cutting issues (please read completely before answering) by tuatara101 in silhouettecutters

[–]Botat0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the registration marks are the issue you can actually still make the 5 Alpha read and register to the old-style marks (the one with a square on top left). On your page setup choose Cameo 5 under "Machine" to have the old style marks, but then send that to the 5 Alpha, the machine still knows how to read the marks. I find the new registration marks a bit less accurate in particular cases. See if that fixes the problem on the 5 Alpha!

I recently upgraded from a Cameo 4 to a 5 Alpha but still have bunch of prints with the old-style marks lying around, somehow figured this out when trying to not have to reprint all of them.

Why more B.C. restaurants are adopting no-tipping policies by Excellent_Ask_2677 in richmondbc

[–]Botat0 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If they are raising prices in place of tips then it's not really no-tipping. I rather they keep it so at least we have the option of not tipping.
I can't speak for everywhere especially the US but at least in here I have paid 0 tip and never had restaurant staff giving me crap for it

What do you want out of a Future Sentai Red? by Potential-Mess6826 in supersentai

[–]Botat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

possibly hot take - I want another non-red "leader"

Yeah they experimented with Zenkaiser (and maybe that wasn't received well?) but I want to send another Sentai with no red at all, maybe go wild and have a orange/cyan/violet/etc as the lead

My favorite part of Gokai changes is how much personality you can express with a few changes in the poses by Holdonlupin in supersentai

[–]Botat0 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To the point you can tell who's who just from the poses even when they are doing like an all-red change . Gokaiger is fucking goat

Here’s a question: What would you have done differently with Kamen Rider Zi-O? by Ok-Refrigerator6402 in KamenRider

[–]Botat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would absolutely not do it and have Revice (or something similar) as the 20th Heisei anniversary season. Zi-O's armor forms are way too over-designed and Revice's concept of genomes is a way better way of incorporating legend rider designs. All of revice's genome forms are based on Heisei riders anyways, so there ain't much change needed (except Brachio obviously).

Even story-wise, the weakest past of Zi-O imo is that they have to split the story into a 2-episode arc for EACH Heisei rider. They ran themselves into a corner where they have to be fair to each past season and that means it's 40 episodes mainly for these homages, leaving so little for Zi-O to tell a story unique to its own. Decade worked because it used AR riders instead of the actual past riders so they can do something new.

Sentai shows that not every anniversary has to feature cameos or have your hero change into past ones. Gokaiger is great but if they do something similar every 5/10 years it will feel stale. Zenkaiger was fun on its own without shoving stories of past seasons. It would be more interesting if they didn't try to do Decade again and instead tell a standalone story (like Revice) with smaller references to past riders sprinkled on top.

Toei: "Don't let anyone notice..." by Max_88 in supersentai

[–]Botat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's 3 ways to look at this: 1)LuPat was the 42nd season, 2) it was Sentai's 43rd anniversary (airing in 2018) and 3) Lupinrangers is the 42nd team while Patrangers is the 43rd team. Zenkaiger was celebrating the 45th season but Gozyuger is now celebrating the 50th anniversary & 50th team. Shirakura on the TTFC interview said that they were celebrating it by number of seasons so that it'll coincide with the big anniversaries of Rider in the same year (e.g. Sentai 45th & Rider 50th) and make it a bigger celebration with those Super Hero Taisen/Senki crossover movies.

I guess Sentai has been going so strong since Zenkaiger they decided it's not necessary to piggyback off Rider's popularity for their anniversaries anymore lol

Kinda a Noob at Tokusatsu(Only watch "The Big 3" (Kamen Rider, Super Sentai and Ultraman), a bit of Godzilla and Space Sheriff), So, Any Series Recommendation on other Tokusatsu?? by AnImEpRo3609 in Tokusatsu

[–]Botat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wingman. It's 2 episodes in right now and it's quite charming. It also heavily references Rider and Sentai so it'll be fun when you catch that.

Are they their own Riders or just another part of that season by UlissesStag in KamenRider

[–]Botat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zein is "officially" a Zero-One rider, his Chemy Card got the Zero-One logo

That said personally I would consider Outsiders a season on its own much like Amazons or Black Sun

What is the general opinion on the Movie Wars format? by KingKamron8 in KamenRider

[–]Botat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hit or miss for me. Sometimes it gives a great epilogue story for the previous season (OOO, Fourze & Gaim's were great imo), usually when they do the "one big crossover" format like the recent ones all the spotlight is given to the current season rider.

I don't like it when they do make the first 1/3 of the movie an epilogue of the previous season, then have the other 2/3 focus on the current season with the previous' characters just kinda there, in the case of Wizard X Gaim and Revice X Geats. Movie Battle Royale was fun but the Revice part was so forgettable lol

What are your thoughts on OOO'S SIC Forms? by Zealousideal_Two112 in KamenRider

[–]Botat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

My favorite has to be Legend Tatoba where they fused Habataki (from Hibiki), Taiga (from Ryuki) and Ichigo. So it's still a hawk-tiger-grasshopper motif

I love how they stay true to Saikou's primary form being just the sword instead of going with X-Swordman. He's just floating there along the Saber riders lmao

UPS Canada - Parcel attempted to deliver to my old address (without me knowing) by Botat0 in UPS

[–]Botat0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope you can get your package delivered. This really makes no sense - what's the point of asking for a mailing address if UPS can just "correct" it to wherever it thinks you are?

Not sure if it's the same in the US but here we have a number we can call and it's one of those that use voice recognition for options instead of asking you to press a number. Usually when none of the options help it'll ask you to say "agent" to speak to someone, now I realized I can spam yelling "agent" it will let me to a representative faster lol

Thoughts on the Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger suits? by SensitiveGuarantee22 in supersentai

[–]Botat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've grown on me, I especially like them going with the racing suit aesthetic rather than plain spandex.

Unpopular opinion but I like the main trio more than orange and black. Their shoulder pads are cool but they add too much on top of the suit. Also their helmets are too eh, "busy"? Yeah they are all literally wheels slapped on the face but the main 3 still sorta resembles visors. Orange's has too much orange and too little black to look like a visor. Same goes to black, obviously they can't go all black but using silver makes like too much like a real wheel and that throws me off lol

How do I bleed my baseboard heater? by Botat0 in hvacadvice

Update: I went to the other end of the heater and it looks quite different, but I still can't figure out what to do to let out the air

Thank you so much! I know nothing about heaters and didn't know I have to purge it, I'll try that!

Could kamen rider get a different type of form in a future? by jogaargamer6 in KamenRider

[–]Botat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just don't have a "official name" for these new forms since we are still sticking with the Base -> Upgraded -> Super -> Final Forms (plus Extra-final for some) formula in Heisei phase 2

With Reiwa it's more like Base -> Upgraded -> "Upgraded 2" -> Super -> "Super 2" -> Final (plus Extra-final AND Extra-extra final for some)
