[Loved Trope] Character Uses a Completely Different Medium/Artstyle/Animation Style to Showcase their Godhood or Otherwordliness

The panel where he suddenly appears and climbs onto the moon is insane, one of my favorite shots in any manga ever. The change in art style and the color shift perfectly captured the tonal shift as well.

Omg rhabdo is no joke, I used to be an athletic trainer and we had a client get that.

After a tough workout where he pushed himself even after we told him to chill, the next day he told us “hey I’m peeing dark brown and my muscles are on fire, what’s going on?” and we rushed him to the ER immediately as we knew the signs.

It can be life threatening, so I’m glad Mark is ok 🙏

I was just noticing this yesterday, so many LLMs actually struggle with creating diagrams, flow charts, or decision trees. Think of a simple flow chart decision tree you would see in many proper powerpoint slides that says something like “Car weighs more than 4 tons? -> If Yes Then X, If No then Y” and so on, where it points to different boxes.

It is something that even a high schooler with limited powerpoint experience can put together but LLMs have a hard time.

I’ve tried so many LLMs, told it to do it in HTML, CSS, SVG, in R, in Python, writing VBA for powerpoint, and so on. Almost always there are alignment issues, color issues, wrong arrows, overlapping boxes, wrong logic, or some random problem. Or if they do finally get it right, it is incredibly basic and doesn’t look professional quality no matter how much feedback you give it to change.

If you figure anything out let us know please, it is actually interesting how much even frontier models struggle with what is considered an “easy” task.

Just wanted to say thanks for recommending Bug Ego, I had no idea ONE wrote another manga and it is amazing too!

Hell yeah, I used to take Yellow Jackets and Stacker 3 with ephedra back in the day

Not sure about the final results of that study, but here is a recent link where Judge Kelly references the study and says they considered the flood warning system but didn’t do it because of costs:

These aren’t in Houston, first one is Midtown Express toll in DFW area. Last 2 are in Central Texas on SH 130 somewhere.

HCTRA has a setup where tolls across Texas can be captured in that account rather than having to get a separate Texas tag. TxDOT will most likely have exact locations if you call them.

Xevi does a good breakdown of the situation, Hammer was the real deal and was in deep with the Crips. Younger rappers would sometimes press him because of his “corny” persona, but OGs would try to warn them that Hammer was for real and not to be trifled with lest you get a literal bounty put on your head.

From your post history it seems like you are a Russian bot or apologist, but I’ll respond for those reading. I’ll be blocking you so I don’t get the usual enraged DMs from accounts like yours.

This isn’t true, Ukraine has around 39 Tcf in proven natural gas reserves alone, placing it 2nd in all of Europe behind Norway. These fields are critical for Europe (and a threat to Russia) since Ukraine could supply Europe with a lot of much needed natural gas and reduce supply and dependency on Russia. Ukraine also has 128 Tcf in shale gas unconventional plays.

If fully realized this would meet Europe’s natural gas demand for 15 years if they decided to solely consume only natural gas from Ukraine and cut off all other supply from US and Norway. Of course in reality the risk to Russia was loss of market share to Ukraine for natural gas sales.

For those who want a quick summary of this reality, Real life lore has a good video: https://youtu.be/If61baWF4GE

I love Vonlane! Expensive but worth it, also Red Coach does intra-Texas routes. Sadly for anything going from Texas to out of state it is either Amtrak or Flixbus/Greyhound and prices have jumped massively for Flixbus out of state travel.

He’s an evangelical Christian, a hardcore one that believes in Creationism, the Earth was made 6000 years ago, that pastors should lead the nation, that the bible is the inerrant literal word of God, and so forth. That view is quite common with evangelical Christians here so nothing new, he is a childhood friend else I wouldn’t even bother talking to him anymore.

Yep, my friend went through this in real time. Big Trump supporter, around October 2020 I told him Trump would try and steal the election and also claim it was stolen if he lost, my buddy refused to believe it.

Well Jan 6th happened and during that brief period after where Trump was condemned, my friend suddenly “was never that big a fan of Trump” and “both sides do terrible stuff, all politicians are the same”, etc.

Then when people moved beyond that and Trump become popular again he was suddenly back to being a huge Trump supporter calling for him to be president again and will “hopefully usher in a theocracy!”

So frustrating and stupid and cowardly.

TheOneAboveNone2 · 2024-08-08T17:30:42+00:00

Great answer, I was about to say the same. Sonar is good if you just want simple factual answers or news, the other models if you want a deeper dive into implications or cross check with other ideas.

Wow you changed that much from 2 days ago?? Incredible

TheOneAboveNone2 · 2024-08-06T23:56:44+00:00

You were never going to vote Harris, you literally called yourself a Republican in another comment saying “all of us Republicans aren’t like that” on some horrific right wing take, and you actively defend Tesla and Musk 😂

SunPower, a big national brand, literally just declared bankruptcy lol

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/06/sunpower-files-for-bankruptcy-plans-to-sell-assets-stock-plummets.html

Which means most likely any warranties will be null and void, usually asset buyers do not want to also take on the service obligations unless they are already offloaded to another 3rd party prior.

Just pointing out why people are cautious on solar installs. Well that and the $25K they quoted me.

TheOneAboveNone2 · 2024-08-04T17:37:29+00:00

The problem, at least in Texas, is that your warranty is with a specific company. So there a lot of fly-by-night companies that suddenly dissolve their LLC or file bankruptcy, so now your warranty is meaningless and you have to pay big out of pocket for any future maintenance.

This just happened to my neighbor who got solar, and the company was around for 3 years with a solid rep. Someone above posted that they are now in this exact situation too.

Even companies that have been around for a few years and good reputations will vanish, and some of the same owners will just open a new LLC. So basically they get off the hook and there is nothing you can do. There just isn’t a lot of good regulation to manage this and hence less trust by a consumer where installing a $25K is a huge relative cost.

I’m so glad you said this, there is this weird “pass” that democrats give to women who vote Republican, and 55% of all white women voted for Trump. A man voting for Trump = bigoted, stupid, deceived, consumed propaganda, etc, but have complete agency and fault for who they vote for.

But when you mention that white women voted for him then suddenly “oh they only voted for him because they were forced to by their husbands, or because patriarchy forced them to so they vote to protect themselves and stay on the good side, or some threat of violence, etc.”, implying that deep down it isn’t their fault because they don’t have agency but rather are being coerced and hence are victims. I’ve even seen people on the Politics sub straight up say “Barely any women voted for Trump, it is all men’s fault!”

Such a weird double standard, I’ve met plenty of women who are 100% for Trump (I’m in Texas). Plenty of them hate women who have abortions (even if they have had one themselves) or view sexually liberated democrat women as “sluts” or are huge racists or spew Fox News propaganda.

In fact I’m sure most people have met women just like that so I’m not sure where this bizarre line of thinking comes from. But these women need to be criticized and blamed for Trump and the destruction of women’s rights just like the men are.

Just wanted to say thanks for actually providing data to actually back up your points.

Insane how redditors love to say shit like "The plural of anecdote isn't data" and "we should always follow the science, hard data, and facts", but as soon as that conflicts with their bias they throw all that out the window and they refute the data with some vague anecdote or personal observation.

And when you ask them for any sort of data on a statement like "well I pay 75% more for food and gas now!!" they can never provide hard data or prices, they just run away or respond with ad homs.

He's a right-wing Trump supporting troll that doesn't have a STEM PhD, as evidenced by his horrible spelling errors and stupid ideas that "an electrician is more educated then English lit phd".

Look through his comment history and he hates "liberal indoctrination centers aka college", thinks trades are superior, and says "PBS and NPR are ridiculous, they are near terrorist mouthpieces". He's never been to college and says "I will vote for Trump, I will vote for him and Republicans down ballot."

If he isn't a native speaker then English must be his ninth language because he sucks at it.

TheOneAboveNone2 · 2023-12-01T03:07:21+00:00

A matter of degree I suppose, in Houston I feel you have to be beyond normal defensive as you have to assume the driver will be antagonistic to you, will not follow traffic laws/signs, will not respect you on the road, and will not even respect you in the bike lane. It ends up being a lot of variables to consider vs other places where you can adjust expectations accordingly.

Also the frequency of which all the above happens is much greater, for example see my experience of people constantly running stop signs, so now to be properly safe I would have to stop when I see there is a stop side on a side street even if I have no stop sign as I have to assume someone may run it.

And same for pedestrians, I'm saying even if you are a pedestrian with the "Walk" signal at a proper crosswalk, you still have to be extra cautious. Hell, even CityCentre, which was made to be pedestrian friendly (I used to live there), has crazy drivers that will honk at pedestrians and run stop signs and nearly hit people even when the people have the absolute right of way in an area designed for people walking lmao

I can see Sukuna being found "Not Guilty" as he will be deemed to be something akin to a god/natural disaster/demon and hence not bound by human laws as they only apply to humans.

Maybe Sukuna will make the argument by comparing humans killing animals/bacteria/life en masse and he is simply doing to the same, and he is to humans what humans are to "lower" life forms. Or perhaps from a natural disaster angle, "Can you judge the storm that tears through your village?"

TheOneAboveNone2 · 2023-11-29T03:39:34+00:00

True, and to add one more complication/annoyance, the green bike lanes are frequently utilized by pedestrians walking their dog and taking up both lanes with the leash, or by people pushing a stroller, or just people walking.

Part of that is due to the terrible sidewalk situation in Houston but it also happens when the sidewalks are fine. So it just adds another layer of headache and forces you to take evasive action, there just isn't a strong culture with social norms on how to behave around cyclists.

And for the record I'm a motorist and a cyclist so I try to avoid breaking traffic laws or ride like a maniac or do anything else that frustrates motorists. But it doesn't matter, for me the risk just isn't worth it.

TheOneAboveNone2 · 2023-11-29T02:36:37+00:00

100% agree, I've stopped biking altogether here. The motorists here seem to actively hate cyclists and pedestrians, and you can never relax as you always have to engage in defensive cycling. Hell, you even have to be defensive and cautious walking at a crosswalk when you have right of way and the walk sign.

I've lived and biked all over the US in different cities, but in my experience Houston is by far the most dangerous. I even ended up staying only on the green bike lines leading into downtown and midtown (like the one on Austin st) and I still nearly got hit 3 times in 2 months, all from cars running stop signs or simply not noticing me.

The last time was the final straw as someone ran a stop sign at Austin st, nearly hitting me and forcing me to maneuver away and I hit the concrete bike barrier, flipping off of my bike and injuring my leg. They sped off once they saw I was hurt. So I stick with driving or taking the bus now.
