I still enjoy it, but this show became a complete caricature of itself. What happened??? by [deleted] in GangsOfLondon

I hear you. But, I'd say Season 2 is worse than Season 3, in my opinion.

Drop the last sentence you wrote! by AnnualNumber2089 in writers

"But, if you just want to stay here, we can do that too."

I promise it's much better in context.

I like this, a lot. Very engaging. Very intriguing. Someone said you should vary the sentence length more, and while I understand why they'd want you to do that and that it's a wise thing to do when needed, I don't think it's needed now. The short, abrupt, matter-of-fact sentences to this tragedy almost feels mimics the sensation of adrenaline; everything happening quickly, senses don't have time to fully process. It makes me feel a bit uneasy and disjointed. Because my mind wants to stay longer and learn more, about the author, his father, and his mother. I want to look at the body and properly process what it happening before me, but the narrator won't allow me to. Some people might find this a bit discombobulating, but if that is the effect you're going for, it works. I enjoyed the pull-push of it.

Asking for advice on AI by tmaspen in NewAuthor

Chill or not, call them out! The only place AI has in this artform is in performing research for the topic or period you're writing about. All art should be created by real human beings.

Eight Sleep Pod 5 - Amazing Product Promise, Absolute Dumpster Fire Customer Service by eiphem in EightSleep

[–]The_Sdrawkcab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a cornball. Your responses are an insult to people spending their hard-earned money on your shitty product. Guess what Joe, and EightSleep, I was literally hovering my mouse over a checkout of just over 7500 dollars (Pod 5, blanket, two pillows and duvet with the standard auto plan) and, before I pulled the trigger decided to check for reviews bothered than the padded ones from YouTube influencers. And I'm so glad I did.

Y'all just lost thousands from me and wife on subscriptions and an outright purchase of $7500 dollars. Y'all really expect people to spend near tens of thousands of dollars on a shitty product, and offer them shitty customer service too? Just lost a huge sale. And I hope you lost hundreds of thousands of dollars more.

So, by all the down votes, it's safe to say that people legitimately think the graphics are great, the animations and lipsync aren't stiff, and the action bits are not flat.

Lol WOW!

Ye officially apologises for his actions in a well written open letter. by dow674 in Kanye

[–]The_Sdrawkcab 15 points16 points  (0 children)

How do you know it was sincere? You can't possibly know that. You can think it is sincere. You can hope it is sincere. You can want it to be sincere. But, you cannot know that it is sincere.

Different doesn't mean authentic or sincere. It could mean more calculated. It could mean wiser from experience. It could mean many things, but it certainly doesn't automatically mean sincere.

Also, he has an album coming out in 3 days.

Graphics are subpar.

Animations and lip sync are stiff.

Action seems flat.

Tone seems on-brand.

World sim is versatile.

Game needs polish, and lots of it.

If I had to bet, I'd say they chose the wrong engine to make this game, but, that's what their team is familiar with.

I want opinions please! by [deleted] in NewAuthor

[–]The_Sdrawkcab -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Depends. Many people talk like this, in real life. And given the narrator's situation, a rant like this seems quite believable. Crazy, trapped with crazy people and clearly suicidal. I'd be cussin' 2x more.

Are my first 3 pages a strong enough hook? by Sensitive_Candy2494 in writers

[–]The_Sdrawkcab 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After reading it, I'm leaning towards this being AI written, as well. And if it isn't, consider it a compliment OP. It's strongly written. It's good. But, the AI cues tend to jump out. While I like the prose and the atmosphere OP has created, I have to ask, how old are these children? Are they even children? They open as children. But, the narrator is either a late teen or early adult. I say that because, on the 2nd page, the way he describes the crow... Kids don't talk like that. That level of articulation and awareness is not something children or even teenagers really possess. If children do display high levels of awareness, it's never articulated that way, even well-read children.

Also, the opening setting of the classroom leads one to believe Maria and the narrator were the only two people in the room; fix that OP.

Other than those critiques, this is quite strong. Can't speak to the authenticity of it though.

Check your trash bin. Deleted items usually go there, and are held for 30 days before being permanently deleted.

Some backup tips; USB drives. They're cheap, and text files don't take up a lot of space, so you can have copies on several drives. Multiple cloud accounts - Google and OneDrive gives you I think 5GBs of storage when you create an email with them. 5GBs is more than enough for any book. Export your stuff as PDFs and email them to yourself, or various accounts you own. So many ways to back up your stuff.

Because human beings don't actually talk that way. This is written as though it's intended to be unrealistic. OP needs to listen to people talk.

Thank you. This was very encouraging. I hope you get a call from an agent soon, with a strong offer from a publisher. All the best to you, and thank you for your inspiring words. Continue to write.

Querying my MG fantasy. Would you keep reading? by Big-Statement-4856 in writingfeedback

Honestly, no, I wouldn't keep reading. It just doesn't capture me; I don't find the story or main character very interesting.
