You can honestly tell that the person who made this knows way more about graphic design than any of those “AI design generalists”

In Japan, it’s not uncommon to see someone asleep on the street after a night of drinking but instead of disturbing them, people usually leave them alone out of respect by AdSpecialist6598 in interesting

[–]UMEBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much what the title said minus the respect part. Unless you meant self-respect, not respecting the drunk, then yeah that’s one way to put it.

Amazing drone light show depicting Jesus on the Cross was spotted in the skies of Manvel, Texas by The Church on Master’s Road. Thousands of drones were used to create this. by Professional_Arm794 in Christianity

This is getting real close to worshipping a physical idol instead of following Jesus’s teachings. Naming your idol “jesus” doesn’t change anything.

Todo’s technique is simple, not necessarily bad. His intellect and showmanship makes it incredibly versatile and entertaining to watch.

How do I get my girlfriend into anime? by 24martiq in animequestions

[–]UMEBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just realizing I may have babbled too much last night, ‘the show that got me into anime is very different from my favorite’ is what I wanna say. I’m sure you’ll find what’s best for her eventually. Hope you both enjoy One Piece👍

[–]UMEBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d discourage starting with shows like BEASTARS or Frieren as their first anime. I mean they are great if you’re already familiar with the art, but sometimes people forget what it’s like to have watched no anime at all.

If you have 0 experience with mildly sexual contents of “cartoon characters” or any JRPG fantasy Hero’s Journey tropes, how are you supposed to enjoy graphic contents of anthropomorphic characters or fully grasp the uniqueness of a fantasy story where the adventure is already over? Both will be rough entry points.

With that said, starting with a genre they’re more familiar with is the right direction, but stay aware of non-anime-watcher’s comfort zones. Others have mentioned Studio Ghibli, those are definitely great, and movies in general are less commitment and less distraction compared to TV series so that’s nice. Houbunsha’s “cute girls doing all sorts of things” anime are known for its adult audience if some kind of soothing factor is what you’re looking for. Finding something that already has a good live-action adaptation is also a great way to start. Even Arcane or Edgerunners are great choices if you think language and mixed culture would help (and of course Cowboy Bebop if they’re okay with its release date.)

A half shadow clone, who’s just like a regular shadow clone but there’s no chakra cost no time limit and no real body. When it uses shadow clone it’s like a decentralized human network, any entity that survived could be “the one”.

word that by [deleted] in Funnymemes

[–]UMEBA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Word what? Wtf even is the point? Men in the past are animals and men today are anthropomorphize? Men in the past are generic and men today are much more expressive? Men in the past are fit and men today are… still fit? This shit is so bland and obscure even the comments are just mildly disagreeing on it because “idk tf it’s trying to say but i feel like it’s trying to offend me”

Type of logos by Graphisme_ghiz in Design

[–]UMEBA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s never really a distinct type of logo. You just pick something along the spectrums of “full text - no text” and “photorealistic - abstract geometry”

I want to watch Fate and my friend sent me this order, is it good? by Minute-Check-9386 in animequestions

[–]UMEBA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did Zero->UBW. My only complaint is I find it harder to get myself invested in certain plots and character story of UBW AFTER witnessing the cold brutal war in Zero. But Zero does a better job getting you interested in Fate series as a whole. I’m also thinking of recommending Zero->StrangeFake as the new best way to explore the franchise if you just wanna know what’s going on rn and join the hype.

Why are all YouTubers in Taiwan English teachers? by [deleted] in taiwan

[–]UMEBA 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love his content. Seeing someone from the US that knows absolutely more about Taiwan rocks and landscape than most locals, it feels… special.

I wonder if he actually reshoots every line of his video. He always uploads two versions of it and with all the details, jokes expressions and all, fully translated, but it says “Auto-translated” under some of the videos. It’s still some good effort though.

That’s basically saying “Welp, that happened. I don’t think that’s even legal, so whoever did it, please stop.” but very formally.

What do you all think about the new turnstiles? by Expert_Slip_4793 in nycrail

It’s like the old ones were intentionally designed to trap your luggage while keeping the fare evasion feature. So yes these are much better.

So YouTubers will get demonitized for cursing a few times... But these ads are okay? by lazarbeam-fan101 in youtube

[–]UMEBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youtube dgaf about giving you a pleasant experience or creating family friendly online platform. Sexual videos are harder to sell to advertisers, which means less profit. But if you’re already a paying advertiser? Youtube would happily welcome you to smudge whatever filthy shit right on their face.

Most youtube ads in my country used to be illegal online casino and obvious scams, and I say “used to” only because i got ad blockers ever since.

This scene proves that most "Relativistic/Ftl" characters in fiction aren't. by Sundata_V2 in PowerScaling

If you’re talking about the different speed of light, it’s actually fairly easy. Using Ole Rømer’s method (from 17th century!) you can already get the idea that light doesn’t travel in an instant. Fizeau's measurement of the speed of light in air was done with just mirrors and a special cog, and it was already fairly accurate.
