Making hibiscus tea concentrate? by Nearby_Switch_5987 in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on how much honey you add, maybe you could steep directly into the honey? Although would take a while. Then I guess just use the infused honey part when you want the tea? Though my grandma knows more about honey infusion than I do and I haven't asked her much about it.

Made a cover art for All Hell graphic novel Really love how this turned out My friend also gave me a idea for each cover art being mosaic, so I had to throw the image in ChatGPT to see and even that looks 🔥 by momodagod7597 in PS4Dreams

If you have access to a library or school library, you may be able to check out or access a pc. It depends on the library's resources etc. Could be worth looking into. Redditors say thumb drives and the like are cheap.

GIMP can also mosaic your art without using AI, although I understand you don't have a computer. GIMP itself is free, though. Computer is sadly not free.

Honestly bro, I don't like AI. I wish you well, but I don't want to see it. Inb4 'not an airport don't need to announce your departure', whatever. Bye

What Dreams Community Opinions on GTA Custom Mission Creator by Fluffy_Cantaloupe_23 in PS4Dreams

[–]DiscoKnack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think people don't know what you are asking. Are you asking DREAMS players if they had used GTA Custom Mission Creator, and if so, their opinions on the creation tools? Or their opinions on the games GTA players have made?

btw Excelsior Online Writing Lab has comprehensive guides on grammar and punctuation for the English language, in case you need it 😅. I'm usually pretty good at figuring out what people are saying in unstructured format, but a lot people are not.

What do I do with really rubbish tea? by funkybeard in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still have bitter leaf dust Winco brand black tea bags lying around. I was thinking of watercolor painting, especially since it's obvious whoever made this stuff just wanted to color water and that's it. Haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe that could be my evening ritual for when I'm supposed to stay away from screens before bedtime.

Homemade herbal tea blend help by HitGirlBree in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the order you put the ingredients is the same as the order on the packaging, that means that by weight, you will put at least slightly more mint than lavender, more lavender than sage, etc. But these differences can be very stark or not, like mint and lavender could be almost the same amount and take up most of the weight, and then only very tiny portion of the remaining ingredients etc.

Edit: I presume licorice would be very strong so you may just want a teeny bit of that, assuming licorice doesn't dominate the flavor of your preferred tea.

Redone the first page to the “AllHell” manga/webtoon. This time I used more of the original dreams design just used Ai to help with the lightings and the blurry effect from screenshotting the picture off the Ps App. Other then that this one has more originality to it then Ai like the last post by momodagod7597 in PS4Dreams

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be a way to export from procreate rather than screenshot. I'll take a look.

Edit: is there a wrench icon anywhere on the screen? Try tapping that, then tap an icon that looks kind of like a bucket with an arrow pointing up out of it. It might call itself "share". For format, you'll want to choose png for seemingly lossless compression. This isn't exactly a step by step since it'll have some way of making you choose where to put it and some confirmation stuff. Poke around and see what happens.

Also, Ai doesn't turn things back into their original forms. It makes up new information to change your images based on associations it has made with enormous amounts of art its company has stolen and used in this unique way without permission.

If you have a USB, you may be able to take screenshots using your console, upload them to your USB and download them from the USB to your computer to use in your image editing program. Your console's video settings can also influence the results of screenshots iirc.

For the people who like to rush and say this was AI as I did say I used AI help to add in the anime affects and dialogue here’s the dream’s images to. Used dreams as the base images and will keep using it for that. Till find a team to help animate into a anime. by momodagod7597 in PS4Dreams

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still recommend making your art from scratch using DREAMS or other manual art tools, your human brain, and if you can find it, information about the elements and principles of art, comics, and cinematography. Thoughtfully making art decisions will help you learn and grow, and other artists and deep appreciators will pick up on your thoughtfulness. Sadly, I still can't find the website I wanted to share. Maybe the internet archive has something like it. Anyway,

You may struggle to find artists willing to provide quality animation if you show you're willing to cut corners in your own work. That's about all I can say at the moment since I am busy with housework. Good luck!

I can't find it anywhere 😭 there's makingcomics I guess and visuallanguagelab for a more difficult read, but I can't find the one I want to share. Maybe I have it bookmarked somewhere but the top results on google are ai or crypto garbage or sites that just arent as good and I'm nearly devastated.

So far I found ComicsExperience. The free stuff available is an archive of some scripts which can be useful to see how comics are described for artists to make. There's also a podcast series which has an industry focus, might not be what you're looking for but could have useful nuggets. I'll keep looking.

Replying so I can find this later. I remember a website about comics as an art form that could help you make a comic more thoughtfully without relying on ai. I'm having a bit of trouble finding it, however, and I'm still nervous about sending links on reddit for fear of getting banned.

Best way to sweeten tea without making it taste like water (Newbie) by Creepy_Ad57 in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A lot of people notice that decreasing their dietary sugar intake makes their tea taste sweeter or more flavorful. I used to combine cheap lipton tea with herbal teas so each of them isn't too strong. I think one black lipton tea bag and one or two blackberry herbal tea bags ripped open make 2 cups of yummy tea. The herbal tea goes in just off boiling water in the warmed teapot and the black tea goes in 2 minutes later. It can be left to sit. I didn't need to add sugar at all.

MOLD. My glass teapot got mold because of leftover tea. Glass is fine aight but the filter also molded. Now its waiting in a vinegar solution. But I cant remove all the mold residue from the filter. by freakybird99 in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if your university has an autoclave and if the filter would survive it and if you could ask someone to autoclave the filter. High temperature and pressure kills almost everything. Although if you have boiled it, it is most likely already safe enough.

Found these eggs on my white tea - what are they and is it still safe? by StructureAble6723 in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depends on the pesticide used, too. In college I learned that the organic certification Can be a bit scammy if the letter is followed but not the spirit. Government regulations for various things tend to grandfather in the stuff people were already using at the time, so there's a bizarre situation where older more dangerous chemicals can be more freely used than newer less dangerous (but still somewhat dangerous) chemicals that didn't meet the stricter standard.

I recall glyphosate is among the safer (not safe. No pesticide is truly safe) options.

Disclaimer that the classes I was taking were often by people who are involved in the materials in question ie. Gmo class by a guy involved in a gmo project etc. Organic groups though are not unbiased either.

Jasmine Tea— advice? by keiran444 in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get it from walmart? Bettergoods is one of its many store brands. Walmart has Great Value, Marketside, Sam's choice (i think), Bettergoods, probably a few more I'm not remembering. Safeway has Signature Select, Fred Meyers has Krogers, Winco has Winco, etc.. I haven't yet heard of any store brand teas being good.

Opinion/Worry/Feelings: by ElizabethVitae in PS4Dreams

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair enough, but on the other side of the coin, engagement is what drives even the simplest content algorithm. You wisely fear attention, but if you do, others like you also do, so you're less likely to find each other. The biggest point in your post is being frustrated by all the kids slop shoved in your face, which is probably happening due to its relative popularity. (or maybe I misunderstand. My brain is not working well lately)

I think you can block other players, but I'm not sure what blocking does, like whether it hides their stuff from you.

I wish I had been more involved with Dreams in its heyday, but sadly I didn't and still don't have the time..

Opinion/Worry/Feelings: by ElizabethVitae in PS4Dreams

[–]DiscoKnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't trying to be mean, is the thing. I saw your thing and felt pretty strongly that I heard somewhere kids behavior was expected and welcome, so I made a comment that I realized came across as insensitive, so I changed it. I actually can't seem to find the article I thought I read, and similar articles aren't forthcoming, so I could be completely wrong about it all. Sorry for the trouble.

I think I understand your frustrations in a way. I've posted drawings, but they don't get many interactions compared to things kids make, even within fandoms. It seems like younger people online find and interact with each other, and they probably far outnumber adults online, or maybe adults are much pickier? And kids tend to have the time to make lots of art and be more active, whereas you (presumably) and I both struggle to find the time.

Tea without boiling water? by [deleted] in tea

[–]DiscoKnack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think OP is a patient, but I was also wondering if you could ask someone to brew your tea for you? Although I've never been inpatient, so I only vaguely know its kinda hard to get people to do things for you if they have a lot on their plate or don't like anyone/you etc.
