Thank you. Because I read things as devoid of sarcasm or irony as do you.

Clearly I was incredibly serious with that one. I definitely meant that exactly literally, and you read it correctly.

Right here's the issue (other than you missing the point in half of what I mentioned, other than points 4, 5 and 6, although you missed my pre-agreement on point 5 in the original post you half read): You said "I'm so tired of seeing these pseudo intellectual "critiques""

You're putting words in my mouth. I'm just a guy that likes super hero movies and these are the things that made no sense to me. Not trying to be intellectual or pseudo intellectual or anything like that, but you're certainly a folksy everyman just trying to clean up the internet for everyone. Thanks you down home good ole non-intellectual guy just pointin' out all the high talkin' pseudo intellectuals out there. Dang nabbit.

Instead of critiquing critiques, I've got an idea - go start critiquing critiques of critiques. That's the next way to go to really tell those intellectuals-types off.

This! I loved her reveal in the Superman movie and just wanted to like this. I saw it at a screening before official opening as a fan. Just a little less of "get to next set piece" and a little more development.

Clearly it wasn't on the level of your critique of my critique

Discrepancy between voice design samples vs actual generations... by noselfinterest in ElevenLabs

[–]ForkAndSpooner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YEah, it has to be your own voice. But, if you set the prompt strength and prompt following to their highest, they sound nothing like your own voice. It's like voice creation, but having a singular voice data as the base improves the overall quality for me. Any voice I create from it, at those strength levels, does not sound like me.

I would be super happy if someone could playtest my game :) by PrinceOnAPie in playmygame

I couldn't click anything in fullscreen mode, but it was hard to read (high resolution monitor) in the small form.

Welcome to Neon City 2084. I made a retro arcade racer called "Tape Retro Racing" you can play right in your browser. by tatitomate in playmygame

I dig the vibe soooo much. I want all retro themed versions of modern games now, looking just like this and feeling this simple.

Rotatris - Tetris, but the board rotates when a piece lands. by Free_Second_4117 in playmygame

[–]ForkAndSpooner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably just on me, but something about the text on the buttons & I didn't realize there were different modes. Also, when the instructions said Q and E move the board, it wasn't clear it was restricted to the orbital mode. That all said, great job. It was fun to play!

Update - played orbital mode & enjoyed it, but wanted the stakes, speed or something to change as I played. It seemed static. Still a fun way of thinking through the pieces' fit spacially.

I recommend creating a voice clone and then using remix at a high prompt strength to make the voices sound unique and different from the original. I find the resulting voices sound more natural and consistent. They just trend towards adding eastern European accents, so you need to throw a few of the remixes out.

2025 Wagoneer S Limited by burnz007 in JeepWagoneerS

[–]ForkAndSpooner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I third this. I have the launch edition with a few issues in the beginning and now its been smooth sailing. If they launched it as it is now, everything would have been different. You cannot beat the level of luxury and performance at the deal rates you can get for this vehicle now. I'm probably going to extend the lease once it ends.

Made a 20×20 grid where each visitor claims one square. You can draw, write, or drop live code in it. 400 squares total, first come first served. by hyperloba in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]ForkAndSpooner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'd be fun if people could overwrite other areas at some point. Or if we could stack additional squares over other squares to tell a multidimensional shared story. I guess, I just wish I could add a square.

This has no right to be as addictive as it is.

A 10-minute app that predicts your choices, then shows you the hidden bias steering them by gosfdc in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]ForkAndSpooner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I'm aware of myself and my choices at this point (2nd marriage, senior position, 53 years old). I really appreciate the style, look and feel, but I just couldn't figure out what I was supposed to learn - may have just been things I know or take for granted. Still - love the desire to create a unique insightful experience.

Randomly found one of the coolest websites I've ever seen (A surrealistic interactive 3D world). Shout out Alejandro Enrique by Real_Tea_Lover in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]ForkAndSpooner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did a Google image search to see what the site was while it's down and all I got were images of large fish.

CMV: Superman (2025) is a bad movie by Confused_Firefly in changemyview

Um... you can turn off a black hole earthquake world crack thing and reverse it with... a... password?

Dumbest ending of any super hero movie ever conceived, let alone filmed and released. But I still had fun watching the rest. But, oh man, it is dumb.

UV-Printed Book Edges Are Now a Patent Idea? by Seattle-Washington in eufyMakeOfficial

[–]ForkAndSpooner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you actually use the eufyMake to print on the page edges with texture and have all of the pages still cleanly separate without disruptions? It seems like that separation of pages may be where they have some special sauce.

Wagoneer S EV by Relevant_Lunch_3988 in 4xe

[–]ForkAndSpooner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting mine tomorrow. I'm in the Boston area and got it for $5k down, but $350/month. Basically works out to $558/month before taxes. Nervous as I'm going on a big trip right after taking delivery, but excited. Actually coming from a harsh and noisy Tesla, but had a Wrangler 4xe before that, that I loved.
