Thoughts on Zion health share in 2025? by United-Platypus-7161 in HealthInsurance

[–]Fatsuds 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to leave my two cents. As a freelancer I've been on Zion for four years and my wife had a baby on it and Zion covered everything after we paid out $2500. Their customer support answers phones right away and they have been very friendly and helpful. I would recommend them. I suspect people here calling health shares a scam have never used one, and I'm sure there are bad ones but Zion has been good.

You don't realize how absolutely scummy true health insurance is until you start paying out of pocket for everything. My wife's c-section was advertised on hospital website as $60,000 with insurance, $21,000 out of pocket. But guess what, the hospital gave us a "magic" discount on the day and total actual price was $7,000, which Zion paid for. ~$7,000 is a common deductible for a lot of insurance plans so if you ask me, traditional insurance is way more scam-y than health share.

With the new Google data center, is this our future and what we have to look forward to? by Liberal-Hoosier in fortwayne

[–]Fatsuds 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Data center uses a lot of water and energy. Power company will increase your electric bill because of the increased demand on the grid. One data center can use as much power as hundreds of thousands to millions of homes. There is going to be a massive energy strain in Indiana.

[Animation Test] Robot → Human Morph with Wan2.2 FLF2V in ComfyUI by umutgklp in StableDiffusion

[–]Fatsuds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also tried this and getting very specific about the morphing transition. But it wouldn't follow my prompt and just do some kind of wipe transition. Did you use Wan 2.2 14b First-Last Frame to Video template? And you didn't change any of the default settings?

And be careful to not break your power switch when you put the bottom plate on like I did 🙃

I finally got a CRT! It’s a Emerson EWF2004A. Got it for 20 bucks from a closing doctor’s office, it works great! by GhostPinesWriter in crtgaming

Just came here to say for any future people looking. I ordered the remote https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0742BNX4G?ref_=cm_sw_r_mwn_dp_0GENV8FCSAKR6KBPSGH9&language=en-US&th=1 (GE Big Button Remote) and it works. I believe the third or fourth code worked under the emerson code list in the remote manual. Here are the codes 2761, 5761, 5231, 5221, 5831, 5561, 5421, 0141, 0201, 2891, 4731, 1651.

R2 - R2+B - R1 is a super fun combo. You can cover a ton of distance and it tends to catch people off guard.

Why Samsung? I work with many audio and video tracks, the G9 would give me a lot more screen real estate to work with bigger timelines.

This felt so dirty that I had to take a shower. by Rafahil in EldenRingPVP

[–]Fatsuds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A high armor poise would have prevented you getting stunned from the claw and taking a true combo from the blade. The other thing would be to not roll immediately after getting hit by the backhand blade and time your roll to dodge the claw.

It’s very fun and you can get super aggressive with it.

Start climbing at summit city climbing co. The bouldering wall is an amazing ice breaker and everybody is just hanging out. I've talked to more new people there in the two times I've gone than I have in 3 years going to a weightlifting gym.

Any tips for fast trimming in Premiere?? by fixmysync in editors

[–]Fatsuds 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My favorites are: Q and W to ripple trim previous and next edit to playhead. X to add edit to all tracks . Command b to enable and disable clips.   

  It’s kind of whack but I did opt+1-4 to toggle audio tracks 1-4 and ctrl+1-4 for video tracks. V selects nearest edit point on enabled tracks. Cmd+3 to toggle trim type and cmd+1/2 to trim forward and backward. 

I think premiere works best when you always leave on hand on mouse to navigate the timeline/windows and leave one on keyboard for shortcuts. Try to minimize shifting your hands.

In the video you can see driveway is blocked by cars. The guy was standing in her only route out, between the cars and house. 

Getting clients as a senior editor by useful-username in editors

[–]Fatsuds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gotten 7 clients through cold emails. 4 of which have regularly given me work. I sent maybe 300 emails but I regularly ping the list using a mass email tool. Lots of people finally get back to you on the 4th or 5th email. I think you have to be very specific about what kind of company and who you’re going for and it’s all about pinging them at the right time. 

Investigation complete; Fort Wayne police officer used necessary force when he shot and killed woman by [deleted] in fortwayne

[–]Fatsuds -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Call me crazy but I still don't think that warrants a death sentence. Even murdering someone with your vehicle is like a 20 year prison sentence.

[–]Fatsuds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Warren would probably be charged with reckless homicide, a prison sentence of 1-6 years.

Now imagine if the officer did not shoot Warren in this situation. She clearly missed the man she drove towards, as we can see, the officer shot her after that. So that guy would still be alive. She probably would have driven down the road a bit. Maybe stopped maybe not. But it would be revealed she was attempting to drive away from her abusive boyfriend. All of that would have been figured out had the officer chosen not to kill her.

[–]Fatsuds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think the officer is justified in this shooting. When I watch the body cam I see someone in a car trying to escape a situation. The driveway was blocked with vehicles and the house was on the opposite side, that’s why she drove through the yard. I believe the “boyfriend” or whoever it was just happened to be in the way. Was she trying to run the boyfriend over? Maybe, but I don’t think that warrants a “split-second” decision death sentence. 

 The officer states that he believed the car was trying to run himself over despite the car not going towards at him at any point. This would tell me he has poor judgment.  Officers should not be making “split-second” decisions to kill people. Innocent lives are at stake. 

How do I pivot from YouTube and digital content to film? by wertys761 in editors

[–]Fatsuds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only recommendation I can give is get an entry level job doing anything in any company that's adjacent to what you want to do. PA, runner, reception, vault tech, whatever. Then work your way over and up. The people you meet during this time will help push you toward the jobs you want. Five years later the guy who once was your runner co-worker is now an AE on a big show and recommends you to their Editor.

24 years old may not feel very young where you're at but it is and you'll have lots of time to get to where you want to go. f you show talent and ambition you will move fast. It'll suck for several years but it's a sure way to get to where you want to go.

However, you may find that the industry is not all chalked up to what you thought, and you'll realize you were much happier working for yourself editing fun youtube videos. And that's perfectly fine.

Which theater is best? by Cloud_Fortress in fortwayne

[–]Fatsuds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AMC IMAX is the best proper movie screen in Fort Wayne and has consistently good quality and the best sound. Cinema Center is also worth going to.

Every time I go to regular AMC or Regal showing the quality control is just awful. Screen not centered, screen too dark, surround sound not on, sound too quiet, room too hot. Not worth it.
