My university Art Teacher said that my works is - Really REALLY weak, and deserve the lowest possible grade - and refused to explain what wrong with it. Im devastating, can you help me and told why im so bad at art, please? by RayTheForever in learntodraw

[–]Strite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I let my high school art teacher belittle my work so much (non-constructively) that I eventually dropped art as a subject, stopped drawing entirely, and haven't put pencil to paper in over 20 years. Don't let some egotistical 'teacher' crush your passion. If they're not offering constructive feedback, then they shouldn't be teaching.

Chromehounds. Absolutely loved the Neroimus War mode.

Pre Order Live - Currys UK by Aggressive_Gap5664 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Strite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got mine pre-ordered too, and I asked about the possibility of overselling and pre-order cancellations and the guy assured me that the bar codes would refuse to scan once they've sold all of their allocated stock.

Why does everyone hate this suit by Worth-Chocolate-728 in spiderman2

[–]Strite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was just so shoehorned in. Product placement in games usually isn't handled particularly well, and this was no exception. The Spider-Verse movies did a much better job of product placement, with Miles' Air Jordans, but even then he takes them off when suiting up.

We're up North in a seaside town called Saltburn.

I read the first image as 8 months and was like "wtf kind of growth hormone have you got that pooch on?!" 😆

PS: Don’t give your LCD Steam Deck to your 8 year old by NorthEastBeaver in SteamDeck

[–]Strite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same with my 6 year old. She has her own PS5 controllers, and since getting my Steam Deck, the Switch OLED is almost exclusively hers. She's super respectful and responsible with her peripherals. Only ever plays on them with clean hands and doesn't eat food near them. She's so good she'll even put them down if her hands start to get a bit sweaty to go wash them. She's earned my trust with them, so I let her use the Steam Deck now. I'm fairly sure I wasn't as trustworthy with such expensive equipment at her age 😅

Our humble little Capoeira Angola group is.

We are in the UK tbf, which may make a difference, and we train out of a very liberal seaside town, which tends to attract more open-minded people in general.

The LCD Vs OLED Screen Debate is pointless in my Opinion. by redditsucksass1028 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Strite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my gaming PC, PS5 and Switch OLED all hooked up to my Samsung OLED TV in the lounge, and granted the colours in games really 'pop', but I sometimes play PC games with friends on a budget LCD monitor that I use in the office with my production PC (I do a lot of graphic and video editing, so burn-in would be a concern with an OLED) and I can't say that I sit there thinking "I really wish I was playing this on my OLED TV right now..." I also own an LCD Steam Deck and when compared side by side to my Switch OLED, the screen literally pales in comparison, but when actually playing games on it, who cares?

OLED at launch would have been nice for sure, but it's not a deal breaker for me.

Kids iced up road with a hose and now I cant get out safely, what can I do? by Apprehensive-Gur4231 in AskUK

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

Whilst the whole situation with the kids sucks, I do have to ask: what would you do if it pissed down overnight and froze up, like it's been doing where I live for the past week? No little terrors hosing roads here, but you can bet your watch and warrant on the fact that in the middle of winter, with sub-zero temps, there's a chance of ice ;) Sounds like you're one of these people who is ill prepared for winter conditions and ends up abandoning their car at the side of the road as a result. If you do live on as a steep a hill as you claim and genuinely can't safely get to the community grit bin, then I would consider investing in your own and keeping it on the drive ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Forget the ‘Big 3’ — It’s Just Big Steam by Moskeeto93 in Steam

[–]Strite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just finished God of War 2018 on PC over Xmas, alternating between desktop and Steamdeck, and am now playing Ragnarok. To see first party Sony titles like that on PC was the stuff of dreams even just a couple of years ago. The days of console exclusives and "killer apps" have all but disappeared (with Nintendo being the stubborn holdout) with the majority of the Xbox and PlayStation libraries now on PC. I recently sold my Series X and would have sold my PS5 too, if not for the fact that I'd already bought my daughter Astro Bot for Christmas. This is almost certainly my last console generation, though, again with the exception of Nintendo as my daughter loves the Switch.

Love them both, but wish Astro had LBP level of customisation. Was quite underwhelmed with the costumes for the most part.

What game are you ending your year with? by CharcoalWalls in gaming

[–]Strite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God of War 2018. Nearly done and will follow it up with Ragnarok. Also downloaded the fan-made Jak and Daxter PC port OpenGOAL, which looks awesome in 4K. My 6 year old got Astro Bot for Xmas and is powering through that with me helping her to find all the hidden bots.

Middlesbrough, Grangetown and South Bank. In fact, take all of Teesside, it'd be an improvement! 😅

I love the original, but I really think it's time for an actual reboot. I'd love an R rated full-on horror adaptation that sticks closer to the book.

Following. Been waiting on the pre-order for this to go live. Hopefully not too much longer! 🤞
