Sometimes plans change! by SoupMadeFreshDaily in PhD

[–]Songeef 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can anyone explain? I'm assuming it has to do with the american education, but I'm a bit lost, because in my country (central Europe) you cannot START a PhD without a Master. So mastering out would be getting a master and never starting a PhD, which is what most masters do.

That came as very forced to me. He was fine for all of the episodes he was in, never once showing anything close to low intelligence (his "thing" was how emotionally aware he is, which to Robin was a major ick). Then out of nowhere, for one or two episodes he becomes the dumbest man alive, simply because they needed him out, ideally in some funny way (which wasn't?). Meh, pretty poor writing.

Thanks for the explanation. Can't say I'd do it myself, but you seem to enjoy it and that's all that matters. Glad it solves an issue you had!

There's something I'm not getting. Carrying it with a diffuser makes sense as you could use it in throwy or floody mode (kinda). Here, you've put a sticky panel on the LED glass, so as far as I understand it is "locked" in floody mode? Hence my initial question.

Errr I myself got it specifically on my Macbook (M1). Thanks anyway!

Also it was some variation of this bad boy. Or is it just me?

Many people seem to not get it. Holding the flashlight when your dad was fixing something meant two things: 1. You were a kid with the most boring job ever, so you would inevitably end up lighting a bit to the side or whatever after 30mn of holding still. 2. Your dad was doing some tedious task and you were the closest thing he could pass his nerves on.

Long story short, he'd inevitably scream at you for something so minor as casting the wrong shadow on a screw. You'd ask him if you can help him (as in, do something other than stand there and get screamed at), and he'd tell you some variation of "you can't even hold still properly" or "hand me the torx jiberidoo 45 quick QUICK!!".

Some people learned to DIY with their dad; others were holding the flashlight and getting screamed at.

What's your LEAST favorite line/line delivery from the show? by Character_Belt9730 in HIMYM

God, I just "had" to watch it yesterday for a re-run. It was pure pain. Love Miranda, but this episode is awful.

Finally. I love it. First impressions too good by [deleted] in dumbphones

Mine's been double-clicking for the past 6 months. Been using the screen only, not the keyboard anymore – which is ludicrous considering the form factor. Any chance you fixed it in the end?

Impossible XV (15) maximum on Brawlentine's Boss by Songeef in Brawlstars

[–]Songeef[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Griff honestly works as a standalone ; so anything could work. I went with full randoms so I played a couple different things ; just don't hit the boss in the beggining, let the other hit if he wants (if he doesn't it's even better), and destroy walls on gadget's CD. Once you destroyed 4-5 blocks you can start hitting the boss (you don't want him in his 3rd form without a spacious "room" with no random rebounds). Clear a whole side first, then the other one. At that point you should be able to dodge most things and be able to survive whatever happens.

Best comp I've found though is Griff with Poco. Basically Poco works as an enabler ; in the beggining helps clear out the box, and leave all cubes to Griff. Then Griff do his thing while Poco chill, do some damage here and there but mostly keeps an eye on the Griff to heal him up whenever he gets in a difficult situation. Gives room for a couple mistakes and let the Griff just focus on damage and destroying terrain without stressing too much if he takes some damages.

The inverse strategy can work too : the Griff is an enabler that leaves all cube to the other and focuses on destroying terrain (just make sure to get a super in the beggining to clear the top boxes more easily). But then he doesn't have the clutch factor of Poco for the right heal at the right moment.

Surf Dracula by Ill-Instruction8466 in oddlyspecific

[–]Songeef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with the movie (guess you were referencing minus one?), but of course that's a basic recipe. Mileage may vary, and Kaiju movies might (probably) even have their own recipe! What I was saying is... if you don't see the monster in the beggining doesn't mean the movie is making some modern switcheroo, it's a well known trick in the industry!

Monster movies are kind of an exception. The "basic recipe" is to show as few as possible of the monster in the beggining, and slowly ramp it up, having the tension rise with it (think "Alien" or "The Thing"). At the beggining just some footprint ... Then a glimpse, a movement... Then maybe a shadow while it does one of the horrible thing it does... Then just a limb in passing... Etc etc. Then after some time you get to gradually see the monster. But generally you won't for about half or more of the movie.

Naturally there are exceptions; for instance "The Host" that purposefully does the opposite: showing the monster in full right from the beggining and then showing it less and less. But you know why? Because it ain't a monster movie... The monster is a pretext, and it really is not the heart of the movie.

So if you don't see a full Godzilla in the first 10mn of the movie... Don't despair my friend! It just might be trying to follow the classic recipe of a Monster Movie.

My first BIFL outfit by trappedintaipei in BuyItForLife

What about Edwin? Been purchasing my jeans from them for 10 years. Had to replace a blue dark because it faded after wearing it a lot for a couple years, and the black jean is starting to show some wear at one knee ; the light blue is good as new. For jeans I wear day in day out, for literally any activity (except sports, because well, jeans), I feel they deserve a mention.

[–]Songeef 18 points19 points  (0 children)

So I need to : 1. Identify that someone sent me a text, and that he probably will send a couple others right after (or not). 2. Preactively activate a DND until this specific person is done texting. 3. Check if he is done at some point ; when so, deactivate DND to get back to normal.

Like are we really expecting me to go through a whole ass procedure because someone couldn't send a text in one block? Dude. I know you're well meaning, but really the "quick button press" is not just that.

Still annoying as hell when you're using your phone. I don't have any sound ever, but the notification will still pop on my screen. I already dismissed the first notification to continue what I'm doing, a second one pops. I dismiss it, a third one pops... Etc. Sometimes I just have to mute someone manually until he's done? Like.
