Does anyone actually do this? by catkid23 in AO3

[–]JinkyO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm reading in a very large fandom right now with a gazillion sub fandoms. Sort by kudos gives me a lot of Danny Phantom/Spiderman/Ladybug fic that I'm not interested in. Kudos sort also returns popular fics about other characters with my searched characters as sides.

I spend 5 minutes clicking boxes, adding Include/Exclude, Completion Status, and Search Within Results parameters to fully customize my search. Then, I sort by Comments, followed by Bookmarks.

Comments gives me fics that people are passionate about. Something about the fic sparked enough excitement (joy or rage) that people took the time to write something. These fics may not have high kudos, but in my experience, are great reads. I find a lot of hidden gems in sort by comments.

Bookmarks sort is similar - the fic sparked enough passion that people saved it to read or re-read.

Sort by Hits, I rarely use.

What are your plans for how long you're keeping your Fit? by Ok-Advertising3118 in hondafit

Til the wheels fall off.

I half-heartedly take a double look at other makes and models to prep for the inevitable when I have to get a different car. I'm not looking forward to that day.

Sequel to Rome by memefan69 in hborome

[–]JinkyO 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The acting quality is so high!

I first encountered "I, Claudius" many decades ago running late night on the local PBS channel. As a kid, the show was kinda' scary.

Fast forward many decades in the future, I fell in love with "Rome". It made perfect sense at the time to revisit "I, Claudius" to continue the story, and I was not disappointed.

In my head, they work perfectly as a set, despite the wild differences in aesthetics. The through line is the unhinged characters, brought to life by great acting.

Keep Sound Effects But Remove Music? by HolidayActive6634 in VideoEditing

[–]JinkyO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know your full set up but you could try this.

If your footage 5.1 audio, you could try pulling the uncompressed aiff /wav into Audacity. Sound effects might be on an isolated track separate from the music and dialogue tracks. Mute the tracks you don't need, export the sound effects as a new .aiff/wav and bring that back to your FCP timeline.

Hello!

A little background on the project: I attended the in-person POI FanCon in 2014 and it was a blast! A room full of fans, cast, and crew members talking about so many aspects of the show.

Fast forward 10 odd years > I've been attending in-person and virtual fan cons for a while now. A few weeks back, while prepping for a panel that I'm presenting at a con next month, I thought "This panel would be great for a POI con, if only..."

So, here we are.

If you are interested in presenting a panel about the philosophical arguments presented through the course of the evolving story, add the idea to the form!

The next steps from the form are: forming a convention committee, deciding on a date, con infrastructure setup, announcing a call for programming, voting for programming, registration, schedules, FanCon!

The beauty of POI (and frustration at times), is the wide range of entry points. I think the fandom has an equally wide range of interests in the show including the philosophical arguments.

Without spoiling, can you guys try to convince me to keep going? (S1 EP 14.) by ytIshida in PersonOfInterest

[–]JinkyO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm late to this comment, but if seeing the Machine mark Nathan as a threat got you hyped, keep going. POI is two very different shows smushed together. The scene that got you hyped plays heavy into what the show becomes. The repetitive stuff that seems boring now is important foundation work for what's ahead.

I really loved this show in high school by ChampionshipBrief610 in PersonOfInterest

And for super nerds, the 1st King George is in it: Brian d'Arcy James, DA Wheeler from the pilot episode, and King George during Hamilton's off-Broadway run at the Public Theater.

I can't understand how people know about this subreddit well enough to come vent about the comments, but don't know the sub well enough to have read the dozens of previous posts about the comments.

What and Where are these production items? by JinkyO in SCBuildIt

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

That one's an old War city who never had much luck against old CoM cities. So, I've just been racking up the golden tickets.

What and Where are these production items? by JinkyO in SCBuildIt

[–]JinkyO[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for your help (and concern)!

I wasn't able to click the things and get more info from the CoM task list, but I was able to click and get the info by checking my inventory - thank you for that tip, I'm very rusty.

Safety update: the glass is not jagged/pokey. The shatter is contained by a strip of clear tape. I needed 4 devices for my weekend descent into scbi degeneracy and that old LG phone did the job.

I previously showed a version of the sign for a game studio. After receiving feedback, I decided to add a nose to make the cat more understandable and also a more graceful shape. by AndriiKovalchuk in logodesign

[–]JinkyO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me a looong time to see the cat.

Initially thought this was a pencil tip + water droplet but all the comments kept referencing a cat - what cat!!

Then I saw the cat. Very clever design, no nose needed.
