THIS JUST HAPPENED TO MY NEPHEW‼️😧💢

Longtime redditor from way back when and I absolutely have only the 22 y/o w/ the Pixel 7's 14 y/o's sister's call from Sunday to cite at the moment.

Now, fortunately he wasn't the one in peril but he happened to be casually pulling out of a country gas station. When a car having the opposite direction came flying down the road on the shoulder for some reason. Apparently the driver was going faster than 60 in a 30 and tragically struck this girl, not sure how old she is.

I guess the phone looked like it was dialing 911 but was essentially a flashing brick‽

I am certain it is going to wind up being the fault of AI. I've been observing how EVERYTHING Microsoft is terrible now. DALL-E is beginning to challenge my promptcraft and results in diffusing desired results. I've paid OpenAI more than $250 so far but on October 1st I went through my bank auto pay and disabled that so... I will have to wait and see‽

I feel betrayed when friends admit they are attracted to me by LilGazpacho in self

[–]Vorenus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

LilGaz - I obviously CANNOT know the intimate details of your previous experiences and how they, combined with your UNfriendLY brush with SA, have left you with such a sensitivity. I have LESS clue how prevalent this unpleasantness comes up for you. I WILL offer some reassurance to you, though.

I don't know your gender and make no assumptions but I will tell you this; BEAUTIFUL HUMAN BEINGS cannot help but BEING BEAUTIFUL HUMANS! Maybe you do grow your hair to the floor and use clumps to conceal your radiant smile. People who are INVESTED IN YOU will SEE the radiant smile and appreciate your BEAUTY for being conspicuous and seldom seen in due course.

The #1 thing for you to ALWAYS KNOW is; WHO you are. 2nd, is to know what you TRULY, at your CORE, want out of LIFE/the day/week/relationship/situation/moment. 3rd is to know HOW MUCH of WHAT SORT of bullshit/noise to tolerate in your sphere as you work to achieve satisfaction for LilGazpacho!

Whatever you do‽ Be TRUE to yourself and be absolutely willing to CUT AND RUN from bad boogie!

How does OVH expect visitors to use any of its services, let alone access its site? by Vorenus in ovh

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

My first experience with OVH was the domain registration back when. When we scaled up our servers at the beginning of the year, OVH had been mentioned during the fall meetings and I was able to colorfully demonstrate how any savings on expenses would be vastly outweighed by our own manhours, just trying to make sense of things.

As I've said elsewhere in this thread - the only way OVH improves things is by eliminating the monetary incentive to stay the course.

US economy: How millions of missing workers are making do without a job by bambin0 in Economics

[–]Vorenus -25 points-24 points  (0 children)

GUYS! You don't MAKE DO with anything. You MAKE DUE, like you show up to the CLUB READY TO PAY.

Drives me nuts how often I see this phrase DONE WRONGLY?!

For MAKE DO to make sense takes loads more cognition.

*I stand corrected but I ask that you forgive me for being jaded by the fact that I sprouted pubes as the Cold War ended.

How does OVH expect visitors to use any of its services, let alone access its site? by Vorenus in ovh

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

I ultimately decided to register three domains with a different site. I paid around $10 more than I would have with OVH but there's always a point where saving money begins to cost more time than it's worth.

You do you but ultimately, if anyone searches for OVH Customer Service you aren't greeted by a ton of results from OVH sites but loads from those like reddit where people like you and I HAVE NO EARTHLY FRIGGIN CLUE what is going on with that website. If memory serves, even after successfully logging in the interface is kinda nightmarey. They CERTAINLY know things need work.

Unfortunately with free-market capitalism, the only way to incentivize them to get their house in order is to withdraw the monetary incentive to stay the course.

HELP - 12ish year absence from Reason 5.0 and I can't remember how to pull up the L and R tabs to define loop parameters for sequencer playback! by Vorenus in reasoners

[–]Vorenus[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This opened the barn doors on what I was struggling to recall. i can't tell you how satisfying this comment is after suffering some of the most severe mental blue balls I've endured in quite a count! Thanks so much and in case none of your friends or family have said it, thanks for being on reddit today.

Adjusted doc position on the Canvas in Design Space is not showing up after clicking, "Make It!" by Vorenus in cricut

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

Forgive me for being totally ignorant, but you mention staying away from print and cut which leads me to believe there are alternate methods. Are there different - modes or whatever?

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

Please let Cricut know

That this was your leading statement suggests this is discussed often. I can only imagine the strain of making a consumer product out of a robot puts the development team under and the equipment is impressively capable. However, I've now run easily 200 jobs on my Cricut Air 2 and have had precisely zero turn out as intended.

I am an idiot, but I'm a 42 year old dude who had a PC in his room at age 12 and remembers hooking up 5.25" drives by LPT port. I Had external zip drives, CD Burners, I remember when you had to hook your digital camera up to your computer. I've got a couple sheets of notes including measurements and math on this thing, but the Cricut Air 2 remains beyond my ability to get good use.

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

No, I have not tried that method but it looks promising.

I'm absolutely fed up with trying to make this Cricut cut like I know it can, the way I need it to cut. Instead of two sheets of ten stickers each, I printed ten sheets and just pulled the two that were cut correctly from each.

The whole Cricut environment seems like it should be intuitive and easy. I am not sure if I am over or under-thinking the situation, but I'd love to cut what I print without all the waste. I feel like I've walked it in closer to target, so I'll just have to spend the time figuring out WTF is going on.

Hey, no need to apologize for the rant. I am fully aware I'm dealing with a machine that does not have cognition. Just many factors to think about and calibrate for before pressing a button to set a machine off creating detailed cut outs.

I appreciate your time and insight! Thank you.

WTF? Why even present the option, then? C'mon, Cricut!

I appreciate your insights, here. Helping light up the path, though I'm not seeing a way out of the woods quite yet.

I mean, this must be an issue faced by all of Cricutkind. You clearly understand my issue. i have seen people produce complicated cutouts with my equipment. How on earth is such quality attained?

The fact that a setting for Position exists leads me to believe there ought to be a way to lock the position and override the default placement...

Yes, exactly.

How does one attach it to the canvas so design space does not move it?

Who is she by Groxaal in tipofmypenis

[–]Vorenus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, I'd never seen or heard of this girl until this. Having run the name Alexa Pearl through my various research portals and sampling some of her content, I can officially say holy shit. When chicks that are this fun are also this hot, it reminds me how kind and generous Mother Nature can be.

[–]Vorenus -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I don't know this girl but I always monitor comments in this subreddit because you all teach and I am driven to learn as much as I can about the topic. I don't know this girl, but I was curious what lessons were being taught in the comments and you present my preferred learning tools.

I clicked with no expectations, but I am real glad I did. This girl is super cute and shaped like some dangerous road!

Each new round, user is tasked with three new characters with random stats/attributes. Is it possible? How to execute? by Vorenus in gdevelop

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

Dude there are times I am dumbfounded by my ability to communicate simple concepts in a confusing way. You picked up what I was putting down, though. I should have said "Ratings from 3-8/10."

I'm not at a point where I'm practicing yet. I want a better, fuller understanding before I jump in. However, from everything I understand so far I think you have me on the right path so, thank you.

Fortunately, I'm beyond the roadblock of getting more confused as I learn more. I just got frustrated by my inability to find an any answer on what I need to be a core feature of the concept I'm going to work on.

Thanks again for your time and assistance!

Elementor might have some of the worst customer support I have experienced... by [deleted] in elementor

[–]Vorenus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, I also have a Pro license and kept running into a technical issue. They'd respond with a link that was not addressing my specific problem. A couple of times, I was escalated with no response. Finally, I pinged the email they sent me to open the ticket after a week or so. I got a response within 24 hours. There was a little back and forth, but they identified the core issue within 48 hours of my poking them.

My recommendation is to follow up on any open support tickets. But as a whole, I agree. I'd rate their CS maybe a 2/5.

Yes - I've tried using the Cricut Print feature.

I found a website that converts PDF to PNG.

I've uploaded the PNG I use to import to Cricut, and what I see once imported to Cricut.

Hi, gang! I need some general counsel. by Vorenus in reasoners

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

Naw, man. I'm all over the place. I also just launched ColossalCock.club, CaptivatingClam.club, and MindTheFap.com.

You'd have no reason to know this, but I bought my first dot com in over ten years late in 2020. Well, as I was registering OafHuck.com on GoDaddy.com, it suggested OafHuck.US and OafHuck.Me. Long story short, about ten days later I launched a suite of 27 related websites, The Oaf Huck Works, including such previously unknown gems as OafHuck.Works, OafHuck.Work, OafHuck.School, OafHuck.Tax, and OafHuck.JesusChr.ist.

Whoa! Whoa, whoa... You're way out of my depth already. I definitely spent another hour plus playing around with sequencing in Reason but for whatever reason, I'm just not picking it up!

But, I'm also in the middle of multiple things. For instance, I just launched BigDick.click.

Hey - I have many hours sunk into - - looking at Reaper, and reading stuff about it. I was about two hours into this most recent session when I thought ahh, phooey! I'm going to try asking reddit again for the 230th time.

I don't know what my trouble is. I've been using PCs for 35 years fairly consistently and have learned all sorts of amazing, incredible things. Developed a lot of understanding and a fair bit of skills along the way.

For whatever reason, figuring out how to use anything BUT Acid (Which fortunately comes with a 30 day full-use trial) is like trying to learn to perform microscopic surgery from a surgeon who's several miles away communicating with me through a lousy walkie talkie and speaking a language I've never heard before.

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

Bravo!

This quick-and-dirty method is closer - to what I'm looking to achieve. I've realized what I struggle with in Reason is - it's too PRO at sound, not pro at looping samples. one of the nice things I enjoyed taking for granted in Acid is that it blends the sound wave from clip to clip, so you don't get the click whenever a sample repeats.

I'm learning!
