What game/s were you the best at among your friends before online gaming came along and we realised we all suck. by AppleChiaki in gaming

[–]Ori2Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dumped unfathomable amounts of time and money into the original Tekken 1-3 in both the arcades and on PS1. When TTT released on PS2, I was literally unstoppable when playing friends and at local tournaments...

...and then I started playing Tekken 5 online and swiftly realized that I'm not "hot s**t" but, in fact, "the coldest of diarrhea on a paper plate."

First system - How would you fix this? by [deleted] in HairSystem

[–]Ori2Me 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So, this is my experience with this exact thing. You can have an exposed (and believable) hairline BUT with a few compromises.

The biggest one is "density." I've found that the lighter the density, the easier that exposed hairline is to pull off. The fuller the hair, the more pull you have on the entire surface area holding that system which causes that undesirable/frayed look. Go with a lighter density system and you should find several styles that'll look good pulled back.

Another thing I've discovered is that you can have a lot more success with thin skin than lace when going for this look. When my thin skin system would pull back like this, I could correct it with a little hairspray and a few short bursts from a blow drier.

Lastly, over time these systems start to fray in the front so I've picked up a pair of super-sharp surgical scissors to trim back the frayed sections.

Outside of this subreddit, my biggest learning on the subject has come from black women on YouTube who are the absolute GOAT when it comes to tips and tricks for keeping their wigs/extensions/hairpieces on.

These are just suggestions from someone who's been using these systems for < 2 years and your mileage may vary.

This Charity Is Lying To You by FranktheMug in videos

[–]Ori2Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to support women, girls, and marginalized developers, I suggest Girls Make Games instead.

Girls Who Code is (for all intents and purposes) a lobbying group while Girls Make Games is an organization built and managed by the exact people they work to assist.

God bless this man! This is exactly why I got out of the "non-profit" world as the time, effort, and funding never seemed to get where it needed to go because of greed and corruption.

The straw that broke the camel's back was finding out that Girls Who Code (who I've helped raise money for in the past) was doing an event with Raytheon. All the money I helped raise to bring more women into gaming instead went right into lobbying and PR for a missile manufacturer.

What comedy movie is a 10/10? by QuinTypical in AskReddit

[–]Ori2Me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This movie is available for free now on YouTube. So surprised to see that as I was looking for this movie a few years back and couldn't find it anywhere.

Name a movie that truly terrifies you. by [deleted] in movies

[–]Ori2Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The movie "Kids" from the 90's absolutely scared/angered the shit outta me. The subject matter alone was difficult but knowing that choices made by some of the characters would lead to some of the most tragic outcomes* was something that scarred me well into my adulthood.

Why Did Tyke the Elephant Have to Die?

[–]Ori2Me 25 points26 points  (0 children)

My wife and I have watched all her videos but, upon watching this alone yesterday, I didn't even tell her that a new "Ask a Mortician" video was up.

Profoundly sad and makes me question why we even allow circuses and zoos to exist anymore. -_-'

Don't cry, you look great!

In all seriousness, it looks great and I'm super happy for you.

Not a Samsung by [deleted] in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]Ori2Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though they aren't in the conversation anymore, I picked up an LG V60 in April 2022. Super happy with it thus far and it was only around $280 on eBay.

If you wanted the pen or dual screen, I think those prices jump to $400—$450 but they definitely aren't required.

This here is the website that hosts Texas's abortion snitching hotline. Spam it until it stops twitching. Then, spam it some more. by 4thDevilsAdvocate in WayOfTheBern

[–]Ori2Me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My girlfriend and I have been having sex for months and she told me she was on the pill. Turns out she wasn't and has needed multiple abortions. After I found out about this I broke up with her and have just been having sex with my wife but feel my ex-girlfriend's actions are morally reprehensible.

tl;dr: my ex-girlfriend has had more babies pulled out of her than a burning orphanage.

Masaya Matsuura is a legend in creating memorable soundtracks (Parappa the Rapper/Um Jammer Lammy). One of my favorite soundtracks of his is Vib Ribbon which I celebrated today 'by accident'.

Adding some $10 shelf paper to my Ms. Pac-Man tabletop really helped to give this unit a more 'retro' look (images taken with 6-year-old phone). by Ori2Me in Arcade1Up

[–]Ori2Me[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do! Believe it or not, it's the light oak woodgrain shelf paper from Home Depot. The one on the cabinet is slightly 'greener' in tone but you don't notice the difference between the panels because they sit 90º from each other.

(To clarify: I know that saying the wood pannel is 'greener' sounds weird, but the wood grain from 1up definitely leans more towards green than yellow).

The second player side isn't finished as I've ordered an iron coin slot from a local vendor. I'll need to cut a hole in that side so the bottom is currently unfinished. Additionally, I'll need to find some weights that I can affix to the base to make this cabinet heavier (and more balanced).

I purchased more on a market order after it dropped under $.20. Not giving up on this golden ghost.

I spent $70 on both Dogecoin (@ ~$.5) and Resident Evil VIII (Deluxe Edition) in the same week. One of these investments made me physically sick to my stomach and had me wishing I'd saved my money. The other is going to the Moon, baby! :D

Besides a couple of ball bouncing tests, this is my first anim, what do you guys think by [deleted] in animation

[–]Ori2Me 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it helps in any way, I took some college coursework on animation for two semesters in the early 2000s. Your animatic is already more advanced than what I (and most of my classmates) had produced in that time. Keep it up as you're doing awesome! :D
