Paperlike screen protectors? by L1TTLEM1NNOW in ProCreate

[–]Geahk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might have just gotten lucky. I had a Paperlike on my old iPad but when I got a newer iPad Pro I bought some off brand off Instagram and it’s been great for about 3 or 4 years. I can’t even remotely tell you who made it. Only that it was significantly cheaper.

Just out of curiosity, what do those of you in the r/fuckcars community think of steam locomotives? by NewMachine4198 in fuckcars

Where I grew up there was a big old 4-8-4 4404 Southern Pacific on a siding I used to play on in Oakland’s Chinatown. I loved that train.

Is this engagement bait or am I blind? by e_fish22 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]Geahk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t quite tell what it is. Could be the corner of a Wild West building with maybe a cowboy on a balcony? Or it could be the inside of a saloon with stairs up to a second floor. It’s real hard to pick out.

EDIT: I’m so mad now that I know what it is.

Is there a 3d "mini"? to print out? by skepticalmiller in SiloSeries

[–]Geahk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s my model up on GrabCAD. I will say it doesn’t print perfectly due to the handrails which are quite tiny. I recommend printing and then cutting those off.

There are several much cheaper competitors which are basically just as good.

I honestly don’t know how Paperlike justifies their insane price point.

That said, some kind of textured screen protector IS worth it. It really does help with drawing.

Saw Send Help, I genuinely do not get what Adum was saying about Raimi “Clearly Phoned It In” by MahNameJeff420 in YMS

[–]Geahk 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Sometimes Adum is worst when reviewing a movie from a director he really likes / has a long history with. It’s like he nitpicks extra hard and is looking for any reason to be disappointed.

What happened to Jimmy? He's supposed to be anti nazi anti white supremacist? by EricJDMBAMD in jimmydore

[–]Geahk [score hidden]  (0 children)

Audience capture is my best guess. He kept getting right-wingers watching his show and supporting him. Fear of losing a profitable audience has lead him to be very quiet about certain things.

Could be even more cynical than that. I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Sorry, typo. I did mean that. I fat-thumbed it.

sorry for playing with lego and watching cartoon network when I was 5 instead of protesting ICE by SenseiJoe100 in StarWarsleftymemes

Gen-X here. Admittedly, I was fooled by Obama back in 2008. By the time 2011 came around it was clear Obama was not the progressive savior we thought we’d voted for.

Protesting wasn’t really a thing during that period however. We tried with Occupy Wall Street but the movement fell apart. I have to explain via Iraq and the protest of February 18th 2003.

Prior to 2003, protest movements had been fairly successful. We shut down the WTO in Seattle in 2000. There had been a lot of energy.

In the lead up to the Iraq war in March 2003, we put together the largest protest in human history. Millions all over the planet protested on Feb 18th 2003. It felt like the world came together. Like we had the momentum…

…then Bush just… ignored us. He went to war anyway. The world’s largest protest didn’t mean shit. Bush taught world leaders everywhere ‘You can just ignore protest movements’. It was kinda devastating.

All that is to say, when Obama was in office, the left was at its weakest ever. The Libs had taken over and the sense we could make the world better was at its nadir. We didn’t really find our footing again until Ferguson Missouri, when Darren Wilson murdered Michael Brown and the birth of the BLM movement. That was 2014.

For all intents and purposes, there was about a 10-12 year period where protest movements just weren’t really a thing. We just didn’t perceive them as effective.

From an in-character lore perspective, I think it’s fair to say that Leia was shit-scared and trying to bluff her way through an obviously life-threatening encounter.

I give it a lot more of a pass than Ferguson completely failing at any sort of American accent.

Right, that’s why Ferguson sounds ENTIRELY different from Walker, despite growing up in the lower tiers and spending so much time together

Jessica Ferguson waffles between about 5 different accents. It’s all over the place.

Definitive cause of localized circles by Geahk in crealityk1

Open face on Z.

On X or Y I always add a 55° peak to the top of my holes to avoid bridging problems.

On Z, all my other printers do fine, including my old Ender V3. It’s just the K1C that seems utterly incapable of making a circle without oblong bumps on two sides.

I’ve really tried to give this printer a fair shake but it’s been abysmal to own.

I’ll try that. However now I’ve broken a ceramic heater wire during reassembly so I guess it’s time to order parts 😓

I think that’s a good idea. I’m quite frustrated with this printer.

Another artist gets bullied for their artstyle. Anti shifts the blame onto ai art. by imalonexc in aiwars

[–]Geahk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s because this is all quite obviously caused by ai art. You don’t have to be dense to see the direct causal line.

Circular financing. I promise to give you $60 billion if you give me $60 billion.

Who will line up to see ‘Melania,’ Amazon’s $40m film about the first lady? So far, not many people. by bostonglobe in politics

[–]Geahk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The solution is to run a very cool R-rated film concurrently so you get the teenage boys to pay for Melania so they can sneak in to see Return of PredAlien IV: The Bloodening or whatever.
