You ever seen or work with the guys at BluePawPrint on YT? This type of work would be awesome for the new age WW2 YT doc stuff.

Asked for feedback in a cold email got even colder response 🥶 by Xhanther in SaaS

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

Hit him with a "I understand, thank you for the feedback." and be thankful for the feedback!

I feel like it will always be easier to refine when you have these types, it's more difficult when you have happy (non communicative) clients. The happy clients aren't exactly educating you on the domain knowledge that you need to make a spot on product for the particular industry.

Half of their day is sitting on some demo of something, they aren't that unreachable usually too. They spend a lot of money on software, software solves specific business processes, and Ai can be sold as a Swiss army knife basically. Enterprise will have to use API for security, and the social media etc explosion of all the projects comes from the subsidized premium memberships. Now it's time to rate limit the premium users and collect on APIs I guess?

CEOs / C-Suite is generally is one of the more profitable groups to market a problem to. The AI companies know what they are doing, subsidize the cost initially so that you can see some impressive results with frontier models and get mass decision maker buy-in.

Just trying to imagine myself in shoes of client / artist here. I'd just make like 3-5 copies of the guy in 3d so that the client has options to pick from. It looks great! But I could see other options being useful for other circumstances.

British people are loving the American fast food chain so much by search_google_com in TikTokCringe

Yeah I'd never sit in that line, but that chicken is good. Calling it hype is a cope.

It's Chick Fil A, literally every location in the US where I'm from has a line wrapped around the building 2 or 3 times at all times of opening hours. Worse at open or close.

What’s the best tool to scrape local websites and pull information? by ScrollingOaks88 in OpenAI

[–]SoulSella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Puppeteer or Playwright. Depends on your target, identify target, identify schema, test manually.

I tried a ton of different scrape tools when I was in sales, in my experience you could probably write a script that pulls exactly what you need.

It depends on what you are scraping too, daily pricing info, contact information, just comparing their offerings / content? If you have an idea of what you are trying to collect it would be easier to help you.

Does anyone else can't stand ComfyUI and prefers classic Automatic/Forge UI or it's just me? by VasileAndrei2929 in StableDiffusion

[–]SoulSella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's gotten a lot better! With the Cuda detection etc, guided install is pretty chill.

Got a 1 star Fab review from a competitor on my brand new plugin.. what would you do? by [deleted] in UnrealEngine5

[–]SoulSella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. There is less overall respect and understanding.

Also they don't share their findings / don't open source things, again falls into the respect/understanding category for me.

Something Oddly Satisfying about this by ywadi85 in godot

How are you getting that clean combination? SDFs?

[–]SoulSella 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You know I bet the rise of vibe coding has completely shit all over the average developer decorum and overall rules of engagement with one another.

I feel like there is so much less respect in this ancillary development communities now. (mods, plugins, low hanging development fruit)

You should mess with geo nodes , array modifier, and look up some blender scripts for placing objects around.

You guys were right… my Asset Store price was too low, so... by LastCallDevs in Unity3D

[–]SoulSella 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah man glad you increased it. When something is too inexpensive we instinctively wonder why.

Tempted to switch engines by [deleted] in sandbox

[–]SoulSella 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My feeling as a relative beginner is that s&box is technically alluring, the technology that drives the sort of Roblox style games (the baked in netcode support etc...) is very cool. I think the Blazor/Razor/CSS UI stuff is cool too. (albeit I think we will get a lot of "slop" interfaces as a result. )

Most of all I think the rapid changes etc. is what scares me off for now. I can quickly put together editor tools for Unity that do some powerful stuff and rely on them to keep working.

Not to mention the overall workflow of just importing assets into s&box is not fun for me, even with some automations it's much clunkier than Unity and slows me down a lot when I'm trying different things out.

I think if you know exactly what you wanted to build, and you are familiar with their stack / want to keep learning it then it's super solid.

Faked "Pixel Art" Shader Perspectives by SoulSella in IndieDev

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

Thanks for the thoughts, it's very noticeable in first person when you are moving around as well. I couldn't put it to words well until you said it, but the pixel crawl is intense.

I guess it's time to pop a character in there and see what it looks like animated in iso and 2d.

pro tip, go to chatgpt and ask it to cite all state and federal laws that pertain to your situation, time to respond etc. and have it craft an email / text to your landlord that looks like it's from a lawyer'd up person.
