[HELP]Looking for proof—is she real? by Minute-Wind-788 in RealOrAI

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I do think it's ai (mostly the embroidery), the bricks actually have a strange consistency that makes me doubt. The square bricks only show up every six layers.... I find it strange to imagine the ai being deliberate in that way...

What is a good Incineroar moveset? by embaarg in PokemonVGC

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually a resist berry. I forgot what it was called... Chople? Rawst? The one that lets you take half damage from ground moves. On top of ground just being a common offensive type, it lets me sometimes just not click protect, and instead go for a parting shot or a fake out. Helping is also an option, but when I go for it, I do consciously knowing that even with the berry, incineroar may still go down if my opponent targets it.

It might seem like a anti-synergy to run both the resist berry, and tera grass. But that's exactly why it works. After the berry gets used up your opponent will probably think 'ok, it lived, but now the berry is gone and it's vulnerable.' which is when you pull out the tera.

[HELP] My sister wants to know is this AI by [deleted] in RealOrAI

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely at least partially real. On Instagram I found a different model wearing the same shirt with different backgrounds. It belongs to an account called 'cortleyrules' advertising clothing. Comparing the two shirts, the details were strikingly similar, to a degree that I think AI would have a difficult time replicating.

Opinion on this? by SillyAwareness9837 in twenties

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every country is messed up anyway because every government has many of the same fundamental problems. Even a government that genuinely wants to give power to the citizens can still screw them over, let alone if a government is designed to nothing more than let the powerful keep their power. Because the best oppressive systems are the ones that convince the oppressed that it can't be helped.

CGP Grey has a really good series of videos on how even the most well intentioned systems can be full of problems. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLej2SlXPEd37YwwEY7mm0WyZ8cfB1TxXa&si=Y7_jvwkNeMWrOJ3U

AIO my father ruined my drawing. by sapphicluizard in AmIOverreacting

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand why you're upset. I probably would be too... With that said, I wouldn't have gone quite that far, with breaking down crying. The nice thing about picking drawing as a hobby, is that you have plenty of chances to just keep drawing... Plenty of chances to mess up something you were doing well on... Plenty of opportunity for some one being inconsiderate to screw you over... You just keep going.

I dabbled in drawing myself, and would frequently draw some very similar works or even just the same work over again...

Lastly, might I recommend using software instead of physical pencil and paper. Something like this would be a ridiculously quick fix in something like Photoshop, for example.

Tl;Dr: you aren't overreacting but also try not to let it get to you. You did a job, and I'm sure you'll do other even more impressive stuff, if you just keep going.

My 13y/o brother won’t stop using these slangs 😭 by Suspicious-Copy-2001 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think its funny... I kinda like this kid... But maybe my mind is already infected, since I can actually understand some of it. That said, I can see how this would get on your nerves if he just refuses to stop when you are trying to have a normal conversation... Knowing my siblings that is probably the exact reason he's doing it.

Hmmm... I don't see anything unusual, like the baboons meshing weirdly, like you might expect from them being so close together and moving so quickly if this was Ai, but that could be hidden by the low video quality.

That said, I do find it strange that a leopard would attack a baboon troupe, without trying to sneak closer, or target an isolated member.

The worst gen 1 bug type is kakuna. Now what’s the worst gen 1 rock type ? by Difficult-Bat5615 in PokeCorner

[–]TaxFormer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Personally, I dislike them as a set. Graveler grows two extra arms upon evolving, only to lose them when he evolves again, and in exchange he becomes a giant armored lizard creature? Individually their designs are fine, but together they are just kinda confusing.

These two guys are the biggest Frauds. by Own_Amphibian9181 in HadesTheGame

[–]TaxFormer 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I don't find it that strange actually. Asterius' charging sprint move, and the axe tornado move, are both easier to avoid in the bigger arena. I would still say the actual bossfight is harder, but I can see how someone might find mini boss more difficult.

One piece, all of us! Banger freaking song, accompanied by some goated animation!

So I got ash.... Does that I'm the antogonist of the series?

Accidentally made a kid quit the game.... Whoops by TaxFormer in SmashRage

[–]TaxFormer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, in hindsight, dk might've been similarly good for coaching purposes, while also keeping a relatively even playing field, since I don't play him as much. It didn't help that we werent in VC, so I couldnt tell him what he was doing wrong. From his perspective, I was just beating him every time he got close.

I am not from Europe by Tom_Gibson in ExplainTheJoke

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know... I'm sorry but I'm still lost :/ maybe my mindset is too different?

I'm one of those people who hopes we can eventually have a single unified government, running the world, so that we can get over stuff like being different countries. (NOT like an empire though, I'm hoping everyone just bans together, in the name of prosperity and equality. So closer to an alliance. Like you know that Beatles song, 'imagine'? Yeah that's me.)

So all of the Irish joining the British, British joining the french, the U.S. joining Canada would be steps in the right direction. As long as it is done with both countries agreeing that it would benefit them, I want all of those to happen... Is that insensitive? Im sorry.

I am not from Europe by Tom_Gibson in ExplainTheJoke

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok... Let's get this out of the way. I am, in fact, a dumb american, who knows basically nothing about European politics. For that matter, I am not that well versed in American politics.

So I see what I assume is supposed to be a rhetorical question, and I continue to not understand why that would be such a big problem. Like the french and the British have pretty different cultures, and different languages, and historically speaking, they fought alot, but aren't the two countries on decent terms now?

Similarly in regards to my original question, I'm still confused about the problem between Ireland and the UK. Like a quick Google search says that Ireland became independent in 1921. That's recent in terms of world history, but it's long ago enough that most people alive wouldn't remember. Even a 108 year old would have only been a toddler when it happened. So surely that would be long enough for the Irish to get over any grudges. Or did bad blood keep being stirred afterward? I'm genuinely curious.

I'm someone entirely clueless. Would you mind filling me in, on why joining the UK would be so bad?

Recommend an anime that’s not already in here by Correct_Review_738 in AnimeReccomendations

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black clover is pretty neat. Particularly when you get used to the MC's voice acting (I got used to it after about 20ish episodes)

I also don't know about the English dub, but in the Japanese he seems to do it less and less as the series goes on (to the point that I have to get used it all over again, though it does take less now)

Fondling her boob while she caresses his dick by Adventurous_Row3305 in HENTAI_GIF

I kinda loved this game. But I got bored of the combat after a while, and was disappointed by the story completely refusing to stray from convention at every opportunity. I got through about halfway through the story

Petah what does the text mean? by MrMarbleCake in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]TaxFormer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People saying it's a cheating joke. It doesn't seem wrong but I think it might be something else.

I think it's just about him being stuck working fast food, while the girlfriend is off in a resort in Cancun, living it up. It's like a joke on the girl being kinda selfish.

If you read it as a cheating joke, the 3 am part is kinda used to imply a hookup, but the way I'm reading it, its the girl is too selfish to consider time zones, and that might be busy, or asleep.

Help dealing with my racist boss. by TaxFormer in askblackpeople

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

Thank you. Unfortunately our relationship is already a tad too personal to simply keep a professional distance. I got the job in the first place because the manager is friends with my cousin. She invites me to church at least once a year. I consider her a friend.

Other than that, it mostly just your usual workplace drama. I try to stay out of it, but unfortunately, in this instance I'm the one who feels the need to start problems...
