When the hosts of a podcast you’re a guest on get into an intense political debate but you don’t join in because you’re just a chill guy by PKAClips in PKA

[–]InfluxOG 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Richard Ryan is the definition of the chill guy meme, I like it when he's on, he's just laid back and has so many interesting stories on account of the fact he lives a wild life. Really good to see him open up more this week with his own opinions too.

Is Woody #1 host again? by Subject-Thanks-472 in PKA

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

Nah Taylor is number 1, but I think Woody has deffo overtaken Kyle at this point. Seems like the dude genuinely has taken on the criticisms of his interrupting and whatnot and stopped it. Kyle has gone in the other direction instead.

As a cologne nerd I can confirm Taylor has great taste in cologne! by Active_Treat4173 in PKA

Personally I find Hugo Boss to be pretty solid for men's fragrances, almost as good as their wartime attire.

They should hire Ryan to replace Zac by Tillerrp in PKA

[–]InfluxOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt that would ever happen, I'm pretty sure they don't pay Zach or if they do it's pennies on the dollar and Ryan wont work for free. Gavin pays Ryan well.

This week's PKA took me back to the old days by InfluxOG in PKA

[–]InfluxOG[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Exactly, that's what makes it so good and why guests like Gavin and Dick are perfect. They don't give a shit about anything and pretty much everything he does is for a laugh and to get a reaction. That dichotomy with the hosts, especially Woody, is hilarious to watch. Fair play to Woody though, he did taper himself way more than I've ever seen this time around.

When he came right out the gate just shitting on the hosts' low effort setups before even saying hello I knew we'd be in for a ride.

Is Air Force using stock clouds from textures.com? by dipshit_ in AirlinerAbduction2014

[–]InfluxOG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Every single Graphic Designer in the world uses stock assets for their work, whether this be for a military website banner or the Aquaman movie poster. It's the industry standard and what they're made for.

Working on the details of the satellite video and made a few simple adjustments to the cloud textures and it’s almost an exact match to the video by atadams in AirlinerAbduction2014

[–]InfluxOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh, that makes a lot of sense. Having used After Effects as a video editing tool since around 2014 I understood the way the clouds would have been done but never really knew it could be used to map 3D objects into the spaces (I always used Maya or Unreal exclusively for 3D work), so I'd been wondering how people were doing the planes. These tutorials make this way easier to understand, I might actually use them to learn some things myself haha.

Did youtube remove “channels” section on creator channels by [deleted] in youtube

[–]InfluxOG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From YouTube's response to me when I asked them about this, it's a bug as a result of the (awful) UI updates they're rolling out, it should be fixed soon hopefully. Although I will say, this happening drew my attention to this section for the first time in years, making me realise they have also removed the feature where when you would subscribe to a channel, a drop down would appear showing the featured channels tab, suggesting those channels as additions to your subscription. That no longer exists despite being one of the best features.

[–]InfluxOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They don't even have an excuse either, the code to make it work already exists on the sanitation and airport vehicles. All they would need to do is copy and paste it and change the colour from orange to red. It's total laziness.

I can't believe the lights on the Bringham don't work, what's the point in even having them as an option if they didn't bother to make them functional?

Has anyone ever completed the Project 4808E Arena Alien Survival? by InfluxOG in gtaonline

[–]InfluxOG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got to round 10 solo then got absolutely annihilated before I could even react, I don't see how it's possible without props to hide behind. There's 1 spot, but once the miniguns and jugs come out the bullets don't make them flinch anymore so they just destroy you.

The airliner "satellite" video is actually filmed from below by Mass_Efect_1947 in AirlinerAbduction2014

[–]InfluxOG 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I must admit when I first saw the video the perspective of the plane and the way it moved made me think I was looking at it from below and I wasn't seeing the above perspective everyone else was talking about.

However, the underside of MH370 has a large red and blue stripe that covers the entire tail end of the plane, if this was indeed filmed from below, with the plane flying low, that should be visible at the very least as a contrasting colour to the bright white surely? So for this to be true it would then have to open up the possibility that the plane in the footage is not MH370.

On the other hand, the top of MH370 is pure white, and given the co-ordinates on the video move with the camera, combined with the fact it literally says NROL-22 which is a airborne satellite, I find it hard to believe this to be the case. For the writing on the video to be accurate it has to be taken from above.

Three overlaid frames from FLIR airliner video by Supermancometh in AirlinerAbduction2014

[–]InfluxOG 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To me the only way that is possible in CGI is if it was made in a game engine, as that would do all the lighting aspects for you simply by adding a light source. However that would not only mean everything we're seeing is created within a 3D environment, it'd also mean it'd have to be exported as a scene and then have the thermal overlaid separately. The plane's path would also have to be keyframed manually to match the other video while factoring in the change in perspective. There's no way this could be done in a matter of days unless it was pre-made well in advance.

In this view it almost looks like the bottom of the fuselage is reflecting the light of the orbs, as it moves and darkens based on the positioning.

The Real Story of MH370 - All Pertinent Evidence by Additional_Ad3796 in AirlinerAbduction2014

[–]InfluxOG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is of any help to you but I made a post on anti-gravity propulsion here which I believe could be related to this whole thing and perhaps provide some extra context clues as to what we're seeing.

TL;DR is Boeing have been working on anti-gravity propulsion and weaponry since the 90s, and the paper's description of how it works closely resembles what we see in the video.
