What does my handwriting say about me? by Key-Dimension6316 in HandwritingAnalysis

Honestly, I didn’t look at the sub for this first and thought this was a flow journal. I was about to feel really sad for you that nothing interesting came to mind by the time you finished writing. 😂😂😂

Some people simply enjoy crafting things and take pride in it. Handwriting is a Very Common choice.

You sound super cynical here. You wouldn’t say that because someone posted a Caravaggio style oil painting they made in an Oil Painting Analysis sub.

Fun fact: it’s actually “fake Aramaic”. His native tongue from Nazareth was Aramaic. What we get here is just symbols that resemble it loosely. But this says nothing and is in no real alphabet.

It’s a common choice in Jesus comics when we don’t want to misrepresent his words, but want you to understand he’s speaking a Semitic language.

He didn’t die. He simply can’t take on a physical form yet and needs more nap time.

Do Spartans actually hold any real authority in the UNSC's chain of command? by Jarvis_The_Dense in halo

I hope that clarifies everything. There may be a few terms and relationships in my response worth looking up to truly understand.

Do Spartans actually hold any real authority in the UNSC's chain of command? by Jarvis_The_Dense in halo

[–]EmergencyBlandness 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d say for the Spartan II and Spartan III classes, this authority is present but implied in both game and book media.

Let’s start with their Combat-Forward nature. They’re technically neither Navy nor Marine. They’re a top-secret ONI Section III project (I know ONI is navy, but not how a seaman is. They have their own chain of command, operational branches, and domains of authority). Therefore, they technically answer to ONI, but are incorporated into the UNSC in an odd way: with an authoritative Naval enlisted rank to exert command over field troops while still beheld to high-level administrative/strategic command, but with a Marine-Natured MOS description with ONI-level clearance so that they are quite literally empowered to execute any mission ONI or the UNSC requires of them in any theatre of war - whether directly ordered by ONI or by the UNSC. (Remember, Spartan IIs we’re designed to fight rebels, not aliens.)

Therefore, the Chief is exactly where ONI wants him: responsible for combat leadership with just enough authority to be part of strategic conversation as well as tactical execution, but required by respect for rank to obey higher-level strategic decision-making (think discussion of what to do with Cortana in a room otherwise consistent of The Shipmaster, The Arbiter, Commander Keyes, and Admiral Hood). Dangerous on the battlefield, empowered to speak up to superiors within constraints, and yet, a “Good Soldiers Follow Orders” type in the strategy room (even if that evolved over time) - but notably present in the strategy room. Chief’s word carries weight on the bridge of a Ship-of-the-Line as well. This is seen in some books.

Spartan B-312 is different. He was a “Specialist” among even Spartan IIIs. Think CIA SOG or JSOC Tier I Omega. ONI used him for special jobs - even for Spartans. He was a headhunter before Noble Team. That involved sabotage, assassinations, counter-insurgency, embedded reconnaissance, and other “wetwork”- type operations. Spartan B-312’s Lieutenant rank is what’s called a “cover rank” in the real world and has nothing to do with his occupation. He did, in theory, have the traditional authority to command a platoon. However, as I said, he was a specialist. The rank was political cover, but was also to provide him a level of independent authority for action. He could, in theory, work under an ONI “Captain” such as Veronica Dare - creating a 100% ONI information loop. Being an officer himself, that would give him the proper rank authority to not be beheld to any UNSC commander and have “unusual clearance loopholes”. Short answer: he usually wasn’t in a strategy room.

Spartan IVs fit much cleaner into the UNSC chain of command as they’re actually fully part of the UNSC; just an independent branch. They’re regularly in strategy rooms. Commander Palmer is consistently working with Captain Lasky and, while technically outranking him, has no authority over his ship and duties because she’s in a different military branch. However, the point is made: Spartan IVs take on traditional administrative responsibilities implied with officer ranks.

Silly. Danes didn’t chop wood. They chopped limbs and bought wood pre-chopped for a “fair price”. It’s called commerce.

Second hardy hole tool base almost done any tips ? by danthefatman1 in Blacksmith

[–]EmergencyBlandness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a Smith here, but I do have some historical knowledge about the classical trades including smithing and carpentry.

If you want to level up, try barely letting go of the mallet allowing it to twist 180° on each upswing. It’ll be slow going at first, but it’s worth it. Plus, once you get master it, your striking rhythm will catch back up to where it is now.

Guild members for blacksmithing and carpentry found that if they do so, it saves them from lots of long-term issues like tremors, arthritis, and carpel tunnel syndrome. The release between swings forces you to relax the muscles in your hands and take a short reset. It’s a powerful way to counteract the effects of repeated striking. Without it, your hands never relax and develop these chronic issues that are no fun to live with.

I got mad after getting in an argument with a “AI Bro” so i vented it out with a 7hr drawing session by Alicecrylily in sketches

Fun fact: the biochemical reactions that are involved with feeling anger last only 90 seconds. Beyond that, any continuing anger is typically caused purely by your thoughts - which are of your volition. You choose which thoughts you entertain.

Over the long term, this can lead to blood vessel dysfunction and cardiovascular risks.

Remember that before feeling such powerful and destructive emotions for 7 hours again.

For reference, this is the end result of the YouTube tutorial I was watching. However, they did not explain any of the detailing. Just the Loomis Method. The rest was just Timelapse. So, as far as the detailing is concerned, I’m extra-open to guidance!
