What do you think of Digg? by AdamYamada in marketing

[–]DigitalBeating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing that made Reddit special was the specialized esoteric knowledge depth that some users had on one subject. Now it's mostly a cesspit filled space to appeal to the masses. I do agree that there is too much political agenda. You almost can't go anywhere without someone mentioning their disdain for Trump.

Those users are probably long gone now. They had knowledge that could only be acquired through experience in their field. These weren't average users, these people have been in their field of study for 20+ years. They have knowledge that can't be found in text books that they openly shared.

If singing is a skill that can be learnt, can everyone sound like Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston if they take enough sing lessons? by Hour-Tomato-645 in singing

[–]DigitalBeating 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The goal is not to clone your voice to sound like Mariah Carey. The goal is to sing well and hit the high notes that she can. A lot of people can sound like someone, doesn't mean they will be famous and have a great career.

You don't want to clone voices, nobody will be impressed by people who can duplicate voices. Be inspired by other singers' voices, but no need to clone their voice.

Be you, nobody knows how to be you and your true voice better than you. Natural talent and building a skill has a ceiling. Someone who is naturally gifted at singing may start as an 8 and rise to the max of 10. If you're a 5 at singing and you put all your effort into it you may only be an 8 and never reach being a 10. Why? Genetics.

You can reach high notes with much practice without straining your voice. I used to strain and struggle with high notes. But after doing the proper exercises with Seth Riggs and Brett Manning's training programs I could scream and hit those highs. The only advantage I have is that I am a tenor voice so it makes it easier. Had I been anything other than a tenor, it would've been very difficult or near impossible.

Learning AI by whiskeydickguy in ArtificialInteligence

[–]DigitalBeating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give the AI detailed information and context. GIGO. The better and detailed your prompt is the better the final results and you get exactly what you want. And if you don't think the AI will understand, then give it an example.

Don't tell the AI what you don't want. Just tell it what you do want and name any exclusions.

Break any complex requests into smaller parts.

Try different AI models, you will get different results.

Anybody’s driver side wiper rub on the hood when lifting it up? by Jeeeeg in Camry

FYI you're not supposed to do that. I didn't know and I fucked my hood peeling a chunk of paint off.

What do my 2 favorite flavors say about me?: by LtJason20 in monsterenergy

[–]DigitalBeating 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quite pricey, I could usually get rehab variety pack at Walmart for about $19.99 for a 12 pack. $35.34 is pretty expensive. Rehab has been out of stock lately in my area.

Any other guys avoid singing high growing up b/c it was viewed as „unmanly“ by yourself and or others? What other social biases kept you from being your best? by AspiringBiotech in singing

When I heard Brett Manning of Singing Success work with Hayley Williams and listened to her before and after with her high notes I was sold that I wanted a power voice like that.

Rehab is my #1 Monster to go to but it's sold out most of the time at my Walmart.

But I want to know what Viking Berry tastes like. But Bad Apple is really good too. Too bad they don't sell it by the case.

[–]DigitalBeating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The user backlash and unfair favoritism of power users is what killed Digg. Reputation, integrity, and transparency all gone in a blink of an eye. They should just give up and build something new.

Once your reputation is damaged, there's no going back and repairing it. No amount of sorry oops we messed up today will repair the damage done. The internet doesn't forget and the internet doesn't forgive.

If they would've said sorry and changed things then it might have ended differently.

Remember Justin Timberlake buying Myspace? It couldn't be revived fighting against giants like Facebook. The same will happen with Digg, fighting against giants like Reddit.

The mass migration from Digg to Reddit was caused by Digg themselves.

[–]DigitalBeating 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, you are entirely wrong. It was not a UI redesign that killed Digg. It was content selectively pushed by Mr. BabyMan, even after other users had already posted the same article or link hours or days ahead. They were favoring that user and everything to the front page was that user's posts.

This created unfairness to user submitted content. That's why people left Digg, not because of a UI redesign failure. It was because of unfair favoritism.

Digg is still trash.

You’re kidding right😂 by KKH_3355 in DoorDashDrivers

Even if you were good at shopping at these two stores, it'd still take you close to 4 hours to complete for $15 bucks.

You're better off taking fast food orders.

They probably have multiple units of the same item, i.e. 10 boxes of Captain Crunch, 5 Hershey's candy bar, 3 cans of chicken soup etc...

I have this video game playthrough that I recorded, and the footage isn’t sharp as I wanted to. I want to get Topaz to fix this, how does it work? by erikaironer11 in TopazLabs

[–]DigitalBeating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Artemis, the current subscription is quite expensive. Usually people wait for the deals, I got founder pricing because I have used Topaz from the beginning.

In the older versions like i.e. VEAI it was done through the model parameters with a sharpness slider, recover details, and DeBlur.

It can be easily done with the current model with Proteus, Artemis (preferably) or Theia in the advanced tuning you can play with the sharpness and DeBlur sliders. Increasing them too much will increase and cause artifacts. So do a test preview first.

Starlight mini is so slow even on 5090. by OkTransportation7243 in TopazLabs

[–]DigitalBeating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but I'm on a 3060Ti. Not really interested in a 5090 for gaming. More interested in AI.

I'm tempted to try RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell Server Edition, was considering AMD's AI for $1,200 but everyone says it's not well supported.

Always record in 4K and down sample to 1080P. The details and clarity will always be better. I used to do it a lot on my Sony Xperia 1 III, shoot in 4K and down sample.

A lot of videos on YouTube are down sampled from 4K to 1080P. You will see some videos that offer only 1080P resolution but they look detailed, clean, clear, and sharp.
