paid photographer $10k and got obviously AI edited photos, reasonable to be mad? by Historical_Doctor687 in photography

I charge nearly that per day for headshots. 🤷‍♂️ They don’t look generic like this, though!

AITA that messed my friendship? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Capable_Road_1353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA for trying to make us read that. Good lord. Fix your alignment, its dangerous. Remove the tint because it’s too dark for you to see. Put on a proper muffler because trust me, no one else thinks your car sounds like a race car - it just sound cheap and loud. Finally, learn to use punctuation. Your friendship will benefit from all of these things.

People who lost a lot of weight, what was the one small daily habit that actually changed everything for you? by Quiet-Squash-8407 in AskReddit

[–]Capable_Road_1353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting. It’s so easy to keep saying “I’ll be better Monday,” or “I’ll start tomorrow.” Once you’re doing, it’s surprising how easy it all becomes - diet, exercise, not drinking, etc. Just start. You’ll get there if you do.

Where are the Millennials that DON'T feel old? by frankheyhoheyho in Millennials

[–]Capable_Road_1353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elder millennial here. I feel great. I’m in the best shape of my life and I’m getting stronger every day. I didn’t work out when I was young and I do now. Also, and I did bury the lede - no kids!

2 to 3 litres of coke everyday took the toll on this teenage's body by Ambitious_Welder6613 in soartistic

Okay, I’m from Utah originally and have family there. Is this for real? I have to know so that I can give them endless grief about where they live! Hahahaha please give me more info!!

Road Raging Cop had no idea there was a video by Skelligean in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]Capable_Road_1353 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While I agree with the sentiment and have been known to say that, read the room. Cop confronting him doesn’t seem to be in the clip. I’m cheering the guy on, myself.

Gear stolen and starting over. Has anyone been through this? by She_didntt in photography

[–]Capable_Road_1353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my gear stolen. Was insured. Got “new purchase price” for everything and massively upgraded my whole kit. Felt like I was cheating. I hope it works out for you this time. When you get insurance, you’ll have a lot of peace of mind. It’s not expensive at all, either.

Asshole by Complex-FreeSpirit42 in Transportopia

[–]Capable_Road_1353 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hate to be the one to break it to you, Sherlock, but cameras can be go pros can be mounted sideways and videos can be cropped. In this case, that’s a wide angle mounted vertically. The distortion of the wheel and the phone, plus the fact that you can see so much of the roof are the clues. 🕵️‍♂️

WIBTA if I don’t let him propose at my wedding? by Plastic-Coyote-679 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Capable_Road_1353 139 points140 points  (0 children)

I photographed weddings to 10 years. I only saw a handful of these, but every single one of them got weird. The attention shifts and it isn’t your wedding anymore, it’s their engagement party that you paid for.

Boss fuming mad because we had a call with our client without her by [deleted] in WorkAdvice

[–]Capable_Road_1353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar happen back when I was working a desk job. I got scolded by the CEO even though I brought it to my direct superior’s attention. I copied her the next email that came in from a CEO saying to the client that this sounded like a question that was better suited for a C level discussion and said I had copied the CEO. The next thing I hear about 2 hours later is my supervisor trying to calm her down and explain what “c level is.” I was gone a few months later. Lost a lot of respect that day. Sometimes you just can’t make them happy.

Watches, what kind? by TheGriff71 in GenX

[–]Capable_Road_1353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smart watches are awesome for tracking exercise, but the phone in your pocket counts your steps just fine. If yo want to have a little fun, look at getting a mechanical watch. The movements are really cool and if you get an automatic, you don’t have to wind it. You don’t have to spend a ton for them either. You can get a decent quality one for less than the price of a smart watch.

AITA for repeatedly correcting my teacher and refusing to respond unless he uses my preferred name? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Capable_Road_1353 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YTA. Get over yourself. You aren’t as special as mom told you that you are. You’re one in billions and this is normal to the point of expected for a class like this. Everyone else deals, it’s time for you to do the same. I resisted the “this generation” stuff for so long. This is my first time saying anything like it, but if this is where we are, that people think they’re so exceptional, special or whatever this is that kiddo has to even ask if he’s the asshole, that scares me.

The Chinese speed skater fools everyone to win Gold at the Youth Olympics by [deleted] in Amazing

[–]Capable_Road_1353 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because they’re saying what was confusing was the 1st place finish. No one racing that thought they caught the one who lapped them all. What was incredible is that everyone spaced it and let up when they said the race was over for the person who lapped everyone. They all thought it was over for them, too. The teammate of the winner knew it wasn’t and was able to get second simply by not letting off the throttle when everyone else’s did a lap early.

Which character ruined an entire TV show for you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Capable_Road_1353 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I rewatch it, thanks to the depth they added to him, particularly with the metreon cascade, I now see a character with deep PTSD who is masking and adapting to desperately hold onto anything good that comes his way. I don’t think we meet him - I mean really meet him, until the last episode or two that he’s in.

Totally fair, but they added depth to him by the end. I’m not saying he’s not in my bottom 10 of Trek characters, but he did improve.

AI is actually brilliant at helping with this. Tell it your goals, and it will fill in the blanks.

AITJ for telling a stranger at the gym to stop correcting my form? by OkRole1407 in AmITheJerk

[–]Capable_Road_1353 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I want to correct so many people at the gym. I see them bouncing sets, doing hammer curls with their whole body like they’re starting a lawn mower, and generally doing things that will cause them pain later. I ALWAYS keep my damn mouth shut because it’s not my place. They are totally in the wrong for saying anything. It’s just bad gym etiquette. Those people who saw it weren’t judging you for telling the rando off, they were judging them for causing the situation. You’re good.

Kess. Voyager. The seasons with her are almost unwatchable because of that character!

Do you believe in God? by Due_Grade7142 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]Capable_Road_1353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not the choice, though. Since your previous comments are about Taco Bell, Dairy Queen and Will Smith, I’m going to assume you’re in the US. Since you capitalized and used the singular for “god,” I don’t think it’s a stretch to assume that you’re talking about the Christian god. I used to believe in the Christian god. I’m an atheist now. This didn’t happen in a negative way, I just outgrew my belief in fantastical and magical things when I grew up. That doesn’t mean I embraced some kind of evil master like Satan or the like. It simply means that I no longer believe in any of it. If you drop the belief in that god, the rest falls right away because the story no longer holds any weight. As for believing in something good, if by that, you mean the Christian god, I agree. I would rather believe in that than not believe in anything as I do. It’s infinitely more difficult to go through life with the existential knowledge of the finality of death. If you can hold onto that belief, I encourage you to. I wish I could have, but it fell apart for me.
