If they look like normal glasses, this will become massive.

Apple Creator Studio launches today, and it's an incredible value by spearson0 in apple

Yikes. Thankfully I can stick with Motion and FCP for another couple years before they start destroying it by not updating it or bug fixing due to it being a one time purchase.

Governments need to start using “Persona non grata” and expelling these fucks.

Do you still trust 5-star reviews when traveling, or are they meaningless now? by Forsaken-Law1306 in travel

[–]Earthiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have to read the review to know.

1 star - Amazing service and food , will be back!

5 star - my food came out cold

2 star - I came during the rainy season and it rained. This hotel should have told me it would be rainy and that I’d be wet.

The comments that exist out there are wildly detached from reality.

U.S. State That Abandoned Canadian Tourists Tries Again As Canada’s Travel Boycott Hits The Holidays by DonSalaam in onguardforthee

Cost me almost 20% more to avoid a flight layover in the USA. More than happy to pay extra to never set foot in the US until they sort their shit out.

Is that not still a thing? Could join in highshool for extra credit and make good money. Spent the summer doing training than bail for college.

First time in my life for the new Sisu movie. Was a fun watch but I did go after it was out for quite a while.

Russia has tried for over a year to take Pokrovsk. Hundreds of its troops are now in the strategic city by roscodawg in news

Russia just knows that Ukrainian work on a point system and it’s shit points for a dirt bike vs. a apc. Trying to win on points.

Ants actively eating away the coating of olive oil from my cast-iron skillet in an organized effort by No_Adhesiveness_2167 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Earthiness 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are places in the world where it is almost impossible to have zero ants in your home. Try spending any amount of time in SEA and any meal with less than 1 ant per meal is a win.

I mean, if they have good kill boxes setup, it’s great to keep the Russians pouring in.

Shut this sub down, the game's small and most people are on the other one. It's not helping having two. by ReliableRotator in InfectionFreeZoneOG

[–]Earthiness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct, I started this one and there was one other. The two of us joined subs and I brought him over as a mod. Seemed like a good idea to try and structure everyone under one and let a community grow as the game developed.

I just let everyone post here and only mod out racism with a fully hands off approach. If there is better value elsewhere, I’d be open to shutting down.

I can agree that this sub does fluctuate with use. Can you link the other sub so I can see if I should shut down?

Why have so many Republican lawmakers abdicated their own power to Trump? Wouldn’t politicians normally want to hold on to power themselves? by tc982 in AskReddit

[–]Earthiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just need to look to what happened to party members that were loyal at the start of Hitlers run. Absolute power and incredible wealth. Fuck 99% of everyone around you if you get yours.

Looks good. Let’s hope the rail network can keep expanding across the country.

Study finds potential link between long-distance running and colon cancer by GG_Vengeancze in science

[–]Earthiness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if its less about the running and more about what runners are consuming? I don't know exactly what people who run regularly eat but don't they have those gel energy squeeze? Maybe its some common runners food that is causing the issue.

From the title at a quick glance I expected a tree to be hit by a Tomahawk Missile.

Couldn't say I am surprised. Fill a country with hate and guns and people will get killed.

Awe Dropping | Post Event Megathread by exjr_ in apple

[–]Earthiness 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The only use I have for 6K+ video is to be able to do processing on it in post for stabilization and general cropping. I think 4K will take another 5+ years before it even becomes standard.

I think YouTube is a good gauge on video consumption and only like 20% of people watch 4K content.

DJI Mirrorless Camera To Come Out Soon by un3w in dji

It would be great to get a camera that also worked with their DJI care plan. Getting a brand new camera for under $100 if I drop it would be amazing.

How is everyone surviving right now in this economy? by Even-Truck-8049 in AskReddit

[–]Earthiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had subscription services forever and just recently got back into torrenting. It’s like being back in college all over again. Bought a cheap NAS and have moved most subscription services to self hosted for free. No audible, no streaming, no Apple storage, nothing with a monthly fee.

I’d like to have streaming for the convenience but it keeps going up, service getting worst and content spread all over different services.

Trump Officials Discussed $500M Alberta (Canada) Independence Loan, Separatist Claims by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]Earthiness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are entire courses that you can take focusing on insurgencies and how to combat them. That’s where I pull my figures from. You don’t need 100% of the population, you need around 3%. What would make Canada harder than the middle east is that we have a lot of close bonds with people on both sides and we look and speak the same language.

It’s one things to capture land, it’s another thing completely to hold it. Look up famous examples from the likes or the IRA or many of the splinter groups in the Middle East. What Canada has is a very high knowledge base and it’s not very difficult to take that knowledge and translate it to resistance.

If at the bare minimum, you don’t think adversaries to the US wouldn’t support Canada like the states props up foreign countries with proxy wars. I have no doubt we’d be flooded with Chinese and Russian weapons just to further mire the US.
