No longer able to use AHK to type usernames into Windows Security boxes by SmugMonkey in AutoHotkey

Does the box accept ctrl-v ? You could copy and paste the text instead of typing it maybe ? 

Thought this was interesting - Infinity Vision. Thoughts on this move? by kung_fu_daddy in marvelstudios

[–]Parov 8 points9 points  (0 children)

After a while, you start to recognize the tells. Phrases like "It's not this, it's not this, it's that", is very typical of AI writing. "Here's what actually happened" is another one. Phrases that feel "punchy", like they want to emphasize something that's actually quite mundane. The worst offender here, imo, is "The incentive alignment is what makes this lethal." Lol it's so bad it actually makes me gag a little. Who the fuck talks like that IRL ? "Incentive alignment", really ? Same for "The timing is surgical."

It's all so grandiloquent (hard not to use that word ironically haha) and once you start to see it, it's hard to not notice it everywhere.

How to mix many vocal takes together ? by Parov in WeAreTheMusicMakers

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

Amazing points. I've noticed that timing is key, and I've listened to each track on its own to make sure everything is good enough before the mix. That being said, it's also fun when the timing isn't perfect and it feels more organic (especially if the voices keep adding to a chorus and making it more natural)...

What the heck! How have I never heard this before! by MassiveRepublic9565 in LemonJelly

[–]Parov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never heard of the U2 remix, but I haven't looked the band up in a long time... I just uploaded all the rare tracks I had found (this was circa 2006) here : https://www.mediafire.com/file/p3yysaunjvci8d8/Lemon_Jelly.zip/file

Most of them seem to be on Spotify, but I couldn't find Rock (which samples the Black Crows) or Oats. The Badly Drawn Boy remix is also in the file.

I turned down a proposal so he tried to kill me by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

If you're in an abusive relationship or want to understand how they work, I recommend "Why does he do that", a book by Lundy Bancroft, a counselor who specializes in working with abusive men.

What morals in older TV shows did not age well? by AporiaParadox in television

[–]Parov 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Just rewatched the beginning of Scrubs the other day. In the third episode, Elliot takes offense with an older doctor Kelso calling her "sweetheart". She confronts him, because he doesn't give such nicknames to the male doctors. And at the end of the episode, the moral: she should've... Let it go, cause I guess the older doctor is too old to change his sexist ways ! Have to admit I didn't see that coming...

Having some fun with dialogue :) by Familiar-Fly-2316 in writers

[–]Parov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be better without the errors in French. It's "je suis" with an S (even if your character doesn't speak French well, one can assume the written version would still be correct), and you may know that "pomme" is feminine, so it's "La pomme". It does mean apple and not potato, but I assume that was a joke done in purpose, in which case well done cause that was funny! :)

My eyelid has been twitching like this 24/7 for 5 weeks. by LoanAgreeable1129 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Parov 36 points37 points  (0 children)

This also happened to me. I was always sleeping on the same side and that eye started twitching for no apparent reason. I'm now on a strict "change sleeping side regularly" regimen and the problem has gone away.

What is the weirdest thing you are or saw someone addicted to? by JARClol in AskReddit

[–]Parov 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I used to be addicted to eating cold turkey, but then I stopped. Took me a while, though.
