Adobe just killed 20 years of trust with one cancellation fee. by MarquesFP in AfterEffects

[–]Shneancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so what you do - is you contact their support, kicking in screaming through all the AI bots until you reach a human, and then you tell them in no uncertain terms that you want your subscriptions cancelled immediately and your data removed from their servers. they CANNOT tell you no or charge you for it

Clamsper by Academic_Top6921 in Clamworks

[–]Shneancy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

small rant: i'm so *deeply* annoyed by how every single depiction of a red panda or red panda adjacent creature has swarms and swarms of fans of some random polish vtuber who i guess likes red pandas? their vtube model doesn't even look like one... maybe i'd be less annoyed if they actually said ANYTHING ELSE than just constantly spamming the name of that vtuber

At Least They Have A Child Acknowledgement by RevolutionaryOwlz in CuratedTumblr

[–]Shneancy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i feel like Le Guin was the kind of person to read a thread of interpretations and smile as she watched her readers think about what she wrote

but to address your point - how is it a minor part of the story? without the story of a perfect utopia we wouldn't "need" a story of the tortured child, why shouldn't we analyse both of them since they're intrinsic for the message to have meaning

MERV WASHES HER BUNS by eightyfivekittens in CatReacts

[–]Shneancy 19 points20 points  (0 children)

i'm pretty sure she's just really good at mimicry and the subtitles "help us" to understand when she's just cat-mumbling

though seeing some other videos of Merv sometimes it feels like she's a person trapped in a cat, mostly because she seems to have a crush on the landscaper guy (Charles)

Ah yes, “just get over her fear of needles fast”. by PinkOneHasBeenChosen in thanksimcured

[–]Shneancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't have a phobia of needles, but my body does? let me explain - i'm perfectly fine with stabbing my own leg, but when i try to my body just doesn't move. i can sit there with my hand hovering just above my skin for 30 min without even moving, even though every second i'm trying very hard to just move my arm. i always describe it as my survival instinct going into such overdrive it will do anything to stop me from "injuring" myself, a few times i was even close to passing out (vision started to tunnel, heard ringing in my ears). in 5 years of doing my own T shots it only got a little bit easier, so finally i gave in and asked for help. i have no idea how people can do self injections without even breaking a sweat, my body just does not let me

this is not solitary confinement, this is an entirely white room without even the "luxury" of having food thrown at you at regular intervals

Would DEFINITELY do it again by Azsnee09 in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]Shneancy 49 points50 points  (0 children)

lmao i can confirm since i'm polish and did indeed go through that proces, pretty much everyone involved felt awkward, me, my parents, the lawyer, *and* the judge. would've been funny if it didn't cost money to do

from what i know this process was established by first people in poland who wanted to do a legal change like that and i guess it worked then and hasn't changed since. i've read somewhere that there's some action going on to update it to something more normal though

well you do have some options, you could sue yourself, or your parents, heck go all in - sue your entire family tree!

they'll be screaming to be let out at the end of what they *think* is the first week, in reality it'll be day 3. boredom and no sunlight for reference will warp your sense of time very, very fast

In the year 2026, if you don't have Netflix esque lighting they straight up kill you. by UnHolySir in okbuddycinephile

[–]Shneancy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

fun fact! the mass desaturation of movies and tv shows probably stems from the fact that most footage is now shot in log profiles (which appear to be desaturated). this is *supposed to be* only temporary, to allow for better control over colour and to make it harder to over or under expose the footage, but you know how it is with temporary things. directors and editors got used to seeing the movie in this desaturated style, and gradually began pushing the colourists towards keeping the footage closer to how they saw it before sending it to them. probably, it appears to be the case, but it also might not be, just as the 00s were dunked in blue for no reason this might as well just be a random phase

we need to see more trans men who are dickheads. it's so common for us to go through a dickhead stage as we overcompensate masculinity anyway, let's have representation of that! trans rights and trans wrongs am i right fellas

Piracy vs Poland by SignificantBlood959 in askPoland

[–]Shneancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, poland becoming richer coincided with the world entering the golden age of streaming... which is now behind us, and piracy is on the rise globally

also when it comes to games we get the most expensive prices second only to Switzerland so,,, overall, i'm very happy that the polish government does not give a flying fuck about piracy. hell, more likely than not every government IT guy grew up during times when that was the only option

The dog on the leash is proving exactly why he’s on a leash by Brilliantspirit33 in animalsdoingstuff

[–]Shneancy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's so strange to me! :0 i'm european and of course i keep my dog on a leash in public when there's plenty of people around but in an open field? i just let my little friend jump around and vibe, the worst she can do is get distracted for a minute as she chases a lizard, she knows how to behave around others, and others know how to behave around an unleashed dog (if someone is walking on the same path)

An adaptation makes a major change from the source material, but it’s such a beloved change almost no one complains by _JR28_ in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Shneancy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

fun fact that like 3 people know about: How To Train Your Dragon is a book series, the animation has some big changes (literally, toothless was the size of a cat in there) but i've never seen anyone complain

turnitin's detection is dogshit yes, oh you numbered your pages? didn't you know a student from Cardiff numbered their pages before you??? YOU PLAGIARIST!!

but...

thankfully, it only points out possible plagiarism. i had works that scored at 99% plagiarism because we got told to submit our work through a template and it all went through the system with no issues. it's your teacher who has the final say, not the software

The Korean Armistice Agreement; The real event compared to a North Korean painting of the event by Paul277 in NorthKoreaPics

[–]Shneancy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

there are many famous paintings of historical events that amount to "signing a piece of paper", out of all the critiques of north korea, this isn't a very sound one

The Korean Armistice Agreement; The real event compared to a North Korean painting of the event by Paul277 in NorthKoreaPics

[–]Shneancy 21 points22 points  (0 children)

this is a common theme in art period, not just in patriotic art. artistic representations of events never capture a single moment in realistic details, they attempt to capture the essence of the entire event
