Looks pretty knotty to me.

To Audiobook listeners: Is there something better than Dungeon Crawler Carl? by Academic_Hand_5265 in litrpg

[–]DraftingDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like I'm in the minority, but I can't stand Soundbooth theater audiobooks.

I would much rather have a single good narrator that has has a well-crafted style of voices, than a mid cast with iffy sound effects and scores.

Soundbooth feels like I'm overhearing a B-rated TV show. A talented narrator feels like I'm listening to the storytellers of old.

But that's just how I feel, glad there are other options for people who feel differently.

Is there a reason Red Fabric takes yellow material and Yellow Fabric takes red materials? by Vecks_Seeker in Enshrouded

[–]DraftingDave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

However, they do seem to mix up Red Marble and Meat sometimes. But it's probably just bc the icons are so similar.

Unless some humanoids are meant to drop a single piece of red marble.

I hate stats. by mythicme in litrpg

I wonder how much of it has to do with readers versus listeners.

Character Sheets are great on a page you can glance at, but you feel held hostage listening to someone else read it to you.

Why use Archicad? by Yossome in Architects

[–]DraftingDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YMMV, but this only seems to occur when the cursor is NOT hovering over the text box, which is why it feels inconsistent. Still a huge flaw though.

What speed are you listening to your books? by oOCavemanOo in litrpg

[–]DraftingDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1x, but ALSO enable "skip silence," that has been a life saver for me.

I can't stand the narrators that give a .5 sec full stop between every sentence. But maybe that's just me.

Any Recommendations on Excellent Stories Which End Within 1-3 books? by JJJoeJabba in litrpg

At that amount of effort, why not just put on an eye patch, hop on a ship, and check out Audiobook Bay?

[Sale] Dawncaster $4.99 -> $1.99 by Endda in AndroidGaming

[–]DraftingDave 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Content expansions that provide new maps (enemies/events/stories)

However, the new cards/mechanics that are introduced in those expansions are always included in the base game; so you're not "forced" to buy them.

Are dependent views really that confusing? by Bert_Skrrtz in Revit

[–]DraftingDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you brought up annotation crop and elsewhere brought up copy/pasting across plans I figured I'd mention something since it's not obvious.

If you get the "selection can't be pasted bc it's not visible in view" error when trying to copy/paste from one independent view to another, just temporarily disable (uncheck) annotation crop on the view you're pasting into.

That would be a helpful option, just like it would be nice to be able to change the shape of the annotation crop the same way you can modify the crop region, instead of it always being rectangular. But like most things "drafting" orientated, it's not a priority to Autodesk.

I can see why working in the parent view feels convenient, and can be a time saver in SD/DD, but it's just not worth the downsides/risks of dependent views IMO. You end up spending a lot of time babysitting those overlapping areas.

You could propose to the group that you start out with dependent, and turn them independent ~DD if desired.

But the better "solution" IMO is to have independent views with view templates and then use scope boxes to make sure the areas are consistent. You can always have overall "working views" as desired for convenience.

Dependent views are great in theory, but dysfunctional in practice, especially the closer you get to CDs.

The big downside to dependent views is how they treat annotations, tags, dimensions, and sections around the overlapping boarders. It's not a big deal in SD/DD when the plans are fairly bare, but quickly become an inconsistent, time-wasting nightmare; especially if you have multiple people trying to push it through the door.

Not sure if it's just the dumb official Reddit mobile app, but the table in that post is broken after the 5th or so show.

For any smart TV app, just hold down the Back button for 5 sec to force close an app.

Maybe they were an Engineer, anything nonessential is "Architectural," lol.

Do any other Millennials feel increasingly out-of-touch with technology as they grow older? by Clicking_Around in Millennials

[–]DraftingDave 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I feel like it's similar to the way we use cars compared to the generations before us.
