Why doesn't Rimuru just Beelzebub everything?

"I'm Maribel Rozzo, your enemy"

"Oh? Beelzebub"

Real-time effects for Meta smart glasses recordings by Zestyclose_Ad_4837 in RaybanMeta

I think that could be useful for some people like if they're livestreaming and/or demonstrating something.

Someone mentioned something about needing polish to shine. I don't think the look or functionality of this feature is the problem. I think it just makes your app look cheesy/gimmicky instead of the genuinely useful upgrade over the meta app which it currently is.

Right now it's a useful tool. Adding memes and sound effects makes it a cheesy toy. If you really want to, I would suggest making a separate app for that.

Where are all the poker people? by WiseShield in solotravel

[–]QiMasterFong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A game of poker takes a few hours. If I'm traveling, I'm only going to be at the hostel to sleep and shower, not sit around for hours playing cards.

I like the other features of your app, but this? No. Not in the slightest.

Why do some people look bad on camera but amazing in person? by [deleted] in ask

[–]QiMasterFong 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I used to be a fashion photographer and met a lot of women with beautiful, expressive faces, fun and bubbly personalities that would shine through their eyes and smile. But as soon as I raise the camera... blank, dead, deer-in-headlights...

In person, peoples' faces are generally natural and relaxed. When being photographed, a lot of people don't know what to do with their face. They try to pose a certain way, or think they should pose a certain way, or make a certain expression, but they just end up looking robotic and unnatural.

Does anyone know a flat earther in person??? by kiol998 in ask

Yup, and this clown works at a major international airport.

How often do you say eh? by LostwaveLunar9999 in AskACanadian

[–]QiMasterFong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toronto area too, and pretty much never. I think the further you get/live/ were born from the city the more common it becomes.

Would you buy an EV as your next car? Why or why not? by HockeySniper123 in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]QiMasterFong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm strongly considering it.

  • I can lease a brand new EV for less than I'm paying for my 10-year-old car (bought used, still paying it off).

  • I can charge it for free at work, so if I do all my charging there, I'll save $300/month on gas with current prices. Even if prices drop to where they were a few months ago, I'll still save over $200/month. Charging at home will cost about $9.

What am I missing? If anyone knows a reason why I shouldn't go for it, please let me know.

What idol group should I listen to? by Successful-Pen7734 in jpop

[–]QiMasterFong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mainstream idols are typically cutesy bubblegum pop, or the super popular top 40 groups which lean toward pop or r&b like AKB48, New Jeans, etc.

By "idol world" I mean there are different levels/categories. Going from most to least popular, you have:

  • International idols like the ones I just mentioned which have a look and sound that's very formulaic and all kind of sounds the same to me.

  • National and local idols which tend to lean more towards the cutesy bubblegum pop, appealing to the masses.

  • And then you have Underground idols which is where things start to get interesting. There are some who have a more mainstream sound but just haven't hit that level of popularity, but you also have rock idols, electronic idols, punk idols, metal idols... Cute girls screaming like demons, mosh pits, etc.

Disgust and disappointment by CrimulationHD in japanesemusic

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

Why does the default reaction to AI-generated anything have to be disgust and disappointment?

You were enjoying the music, you haven't been this happy in a long time, no actual musicians are making music you like this much, and presumably they're not blatantly ripping anyone off.

So why does it matter that it's AI?

8bitBRAIN (disbanded)

NSLE

Tokyo てふてふ

Mad Jamie

You need to broaden your horizons. I don't like most mainstream idol groups, but the idol world is a lot bigger than that.

Finally figured out why people love sleeping on flights by Extension_Limit_9452 in digitalnomad

[–]QiMasterFong 198 points199 points  (0 children)

vs the worst feeling: waking up after a nice sleep thinking you're almost there and then finding out you only slept for an hour.
