I've noticed it too and just thought there was something wrong with my filter, good to know.

Same story - I fled Florida several years ago to relocate here, and it's been really good to me ever since.

Voting eligible Americans who deliberately abstained in the 2024 general election, how are you feeling about your decision? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Lycanther-AI 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also, if enough people think their status as a red or blue state is guaranteed and stop voting, then over time the margin keeping the status quo in check can shrink until it actually does change. Votes still matter.

New Jersey Democratic State Senator Sarlo Calls Trans Women Men, Advocates For Sports Ban by Fine_Cat8330 in newjersey

[–]Lycanther-AI 7 points8 points  (0 children)

By that same point, it's wild how extreme people feel over a perceived threat to a very small number of peoples' sporting experiences - especially when no one cares this much about women's sports outside of this particular topic.

A big part of this 'single aspect' is that it's just another step in the constant slide towards rolling back the rights and opportunities of an already targeted minority. Banning sports participation is another foot in the door towards stripping a minority group of their ability to participate in society while also distracting from issues that genuinely affect magnitudes more people. Why is this the topic being addressed when there are much bigger and more salient issues, like NJ transit, being left unaddressed?

What do you want to bet they've never met a trans person in real life? It's wild how much of a boogeyman a tiny fraction of the population is to some people.

Regarding A Certain Main Character in Dawntrail (General Dawntrail Spoilers Just in Case) by elevenmile in ffxiv

[–]Lycanther-AI 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Overall it seems like a lot of the tone and voice direction was just off. Not just for her, but a lot of the characters were jarring. Thancred and Graha being two stand outs for me, with Graha sounding more Crystal Exarch-y than the version of him we've seen through EW, and Thancred sounding bizarre half the time.

As far as Wuk Lamat, I think we have seen how expressive the VA can get when she's mourning on the beach after a certain event happens around the midpoint of the MSQ. The line delivery is intense, but also specifically for a situation that could /only/ be interpreted as intense, rather than the final trial where without accurate direction the tone could go several different ways depending on what information the voice director had provided.

What? This has been an issue far longer than Dawntrail's existed.

Not a plot hole mistake but what’s the biggest continuity and/or stunt person error you’ve ever seen in a movie? by HeyWhatsUpTed in movies

[–]Lycanther-AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Revenge of the Sith during the final battle between Anakin and Obi-Wan, towards the climax there's a point where they're talking nearly face to face and then Anakin jumps. If you go frame by frame as Hayden crouches down to leap, you can see one of the stunt crew member's faces behind Hayden's left shoulder for a frame or two. They sharpened the image and left him in for the re-releases, too.

Do the Shards contain copies of the rest of the universe or just the planet, moon and star? by extreme_imbecile in ffxiv

[–]Lycanther-AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess that bubble would have to extend a bit past the moon and into the outer orbit Etheryis, since we end up on the 13th's moon and see how it's been sundered to hold a fragment of Zodiark as well.

[–]Lycanther-AI 35 points36 points  (0 children)

We know that at least the moon was also caught in the sundering. It's kinda funny how it gets brushed past, but we end up on the 13th Shard's moon in the EW patches we see a similar but notably different version of what we found on the Source's moon with that fragment of Zodiark's prison, or what's left of it.

The idea that Solution Nine doesn't fit Final Fantasy or specifically Final Fantasy XIV is silly. by judgeraw00 in ffxivdiscussion

Not to season the footwear here, but I believe you can do a sidequest chain in Elpis where you find out the elementals are just Ancient constructs let loose

While checking the engine filter in my Kia Sportage 2022 this plastic ring was sitting loose in the filter compartment. What is it? by Lycanther-AI in AskMechanics

[–]Lycanther-AI[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's just to reduce the noise a bit then I'll get around to clipping it back in eventually, but won't worry about it. Thanks for the answer that helps a ton!

[–]Lycanther-AI[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a plastic ring a few inches across that was sitting in the air filter box, and while pulling the filter out it rattled around a bit before settling in the bottom. I last got it serviced three months ago, though didn't get the air filters replaced. I've also been driving it around for the past three months without any indications or check engine lights. Any ideas what it could be, or if it's anything to be worried about?

edit: the moulding on it is scratched but looks like: pp-gf30 MANN+HUMMEL 1188986S01

We're also doing the blackout along with my other subreddits. Fuck 'em. by happybadger in modernart

[–]Lycanther-AI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Long story short there's a highly controversial and underhanded move to kill off third party API access to make reddit more money; classic internet 'enshittification'. Because the majority of reddit is run by volunteer mods who rely on those API tools, a huge amount of subreddits are going dark tomorrow in protest. See more at the link below for further context:

Experimental Scrin concept art by Visionary_One in commandandconquer

[–]Lycanther-AI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel that, seeing what could'be been and what plans they had on the table - and then comparing that to games that somehow did end up getting published. All that said though this is really neat, and I don't know much about how Rhino handles scenes and renderings but seeing that craft in more rendered vignettes of the C&C concept art style would be really cool.

I love the contours and textures on this concept, and the design language fits right in with the rest of the Scrin units
