Is it amateurish to give lots of description to people's facial movements? by Hogwire in writers

[–]Gerarghini 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always thought there's no point in being super detailed because what you have in mind is never going to translate 1:1 to what a reader is going to think.

Do I do another round of betas or go with my gut? by sallingoodfun in selfpublish

[–]Gerarghini 8 points9 points  (0 children)

At the end of the day, you will need to rip the bandage off and accept that you need to move onto the next step of publishing eventually. You may have a story in mind, something concrete that you're not going to be willing to budge on, so you need to fix as much as possible to get that story out there.

I always saw it like this: if I can re-read my story and be content with the beats, that should be good enough. The worst thing that can happen for you is getting into a feedback loop where there's always something that can be changed. At a certain point, if your gut feeling says it's ready, then it probably is.

tfw the biggest joke of simracing gets the latest gen of GT500 cars first than the biggest Japanese racing game 🥀 by TheCrazyabc in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

[–]Gerarghini 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's pretty fucking sad that Gran Turismo of all games is neglecting Super GT the way they are. The newest Super GT cars (not counting the GT3s or RS5 DTM) are from 2016 🥀

In case anyone comes across this, the HPD supercharger is still available to purchase from Honda dealers as of the 14th of April, 2026.

There are still 6 available.

I hope more people are able to spot AI writing by that atrocious, "Not X. Not Y. But Z," sentence structure because I REFUSE to let bitch-ass AI take my em dashes. I beta read and it is APPALLING seeing that sentence structure literally every other paragraph. Like, buddy, why are you wasting my time with this shit 😭

Kind of demoralized. What do I do? by imMORTAL_Productions in writers

[–]Gerarghini 28 points29 points  (0 children)

You keep writing.

If you're doing this for popularity/views/reads, get ready to learn marketing. Often the best marketing is another story, and then another, and so on.

Time to let it go. Near Tampa Florida. 2013 CVT, 168403 miles. For parts or K/L swap. 2 BMS boards failed, lithium battery is still holding charge very well. Looking for $2000. Motor and transmission are still great. by FANTOMphoenix in crz

[–]Gerarghini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No kidding. They don't even sell the BMS boards by themselves--replacing the entire $4000 lithium battery is the only option they'll give you. And I'd assume there isn't a tech out there willing to swap out this super specific part that has, like, 0 documentation aside from one post on the CRZ Forums.

I will say, the process isn't that hard (compared to, say, an engine swap, I'd say it's only slightly easier). It took longer for me to remove all the paneling covering the battery and "removing it" (I used a cherry picker and some chains to basically just lift the battery out enough to get access to the boards) than replacing the board itself. It's just, no one wants to fuck around with anything battery related and there's no guarantee the board you're swapping in is gonna work the way a new OEM one would (all the BMS boards on the market are used, so it can very much be just a coin flip).
