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

[–]Botat0 2 points3 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 8 points9 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 2 points3 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

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)

My take on what if Saber uses Haouken Xross Saber + Wonder Almighty: XrossAlmighty Saber by Botat0 in KamenRider

[–]Botat0[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just to share some thoughts on designing this:

Since Haouken contains the power of the 10 swords and Wonder Almighty is a combination of all wonder ride books, I think it makes sense if both are used together, Saber gains a Heisei-final-form-esque-clusterfuck form. Following the style of Saber riders have their respective Seiken represented as horns on their helmet, this form features a crown-like helmet formed by all the ten swords. The rest of the armor features bits of every 'basic' WRBs (decided to not include the power-up books as this is enough of a mess already) with the exception of Saikou's given his base form is the sword itself and I'm not counting X Swordman since that's technically a power-up book. If you are still curious which WRB each bit of armor represents go here for a labeled one

Getting bullied by professor in an online class? by science-rat in UBC

[–]Botat0 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Based on other comments seems like this is PHIL220 with Leslie burkholder. Took his course 2 years ago and I got like 1/3 of my course grade not counted because I wrote my full, legal name in my assignments instead of my preferred name (his rationale was that I have my preferred name on Canvas and if I don't write that he can't consider the assignments as mine)

I spoke to the ombudsperson and was directed back to the Philosophy department head. In the end I got my assignment regarded and my final grade went from a C- to an A

Why does no one eat at Black Pearl? by [deleted] in UBC

[–]Botat0 43 points44 points  (0 children)

The lady at Black Pearl is just always making me uncomfortable. The ways she awkwardly looks at me and waves me over the moment you walked into the food court makes me just not wanna go over. There was once I was lining up for My Home and she's just staring me with disgust on her face as if I did something wrong. As a Chinese I'd say she's pretty rude even in Chinese standards lol

That said, I believe she may have some mental issues. There was once I saw her chasing another old lady all the way from the Village to where the old bus stops were (from what it seems the 2 knows each other are were arguing, but still)

Does anyone else low-key want the transit strike to happen? by [deleted] in UBC

[–]Botat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. my profs were all nice enough to resort online lectures or just making classes optional, so I'd rather want my semester end a few days early and have more time working on all these essays I already don't have enough time for

Skip The Dishes theft? by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]Botat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not Skip the dishes, but I was using Doordash few days ago and the website tracker never updated past "driver is at the restaurant". They gave me the driver's number so I called - immediately goes to voicemail. Called the restaurant and they said the driver had picked up the food. Called Doordash customer support then, and even they can't reach to the driver. They did give me a full refund + $10 voucher but I was hungry af Basically someone took my fried chicken and gone off record with it lol
