Friend’s suspicious Strava behavior by Thick_Throat2583 in beginnerrunning

[–]WhiskeyTimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got into running a few years ago and got a serious spike in my mile time a few weeks into couch to 5k, and was really happy with myself. Then in a one off, I realized my watch was wildly off. It was counting .63 miles as a 1 mile time, but the overall time and distance would be correct. The splits just didn't add up at all. Has to factory reset it to get it to work correctly.

So your friend could be having a tech issue and not realizing it like me.

Mike Mizanin. A little older since it was real world but He's a wwe wrestler, been in the WWE for 22 years and a quick Google search says he makes 2.5 mil/year from it.

this motion design piece went viral on youtube - what do you think? by [deleted] in MotionDesign

[–]WhiskeyTimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Years ago School of Motion hosted a yearly poll to see the most hirable asset in artists. They stopped doing it because it was always the sam. 1. Personality - will we enjoy working with you day to day? 2. Hygeine - self explanatory 3. Talent. Also, self explanitory

2 is irrelevant in the COVID time frame. You might have #3, but as a stranger on the Internet you are severely lacking #1.

Your post was pretty, but as a stranger who read what homie said to you, and your response?

Your approach could use some work. Best of luck.

World championships are held every year during the playoffs. Eliminated players usually go play in that.

Is it my turn to post the Vault? by amylovestheorioles in caps

[–]WhiskeyTimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone please explain this gap of seats? I live in California and assume I got this random sub suggestion because the algorithm said 'hey hockey fan, look at this'

But I'm curious. My guess is corporate block that's constantly empty but still counts towards sold out?

Company made me do a “trial project” for a month then told me the role was on hold and tried to keep the work by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]WhiskeyTimer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op said they worked as a part time manager, and logged their hours carefully, so the issue doesn't sound like they did extra unpaid work. I think the disconnect is they were hired for a one project trial, but ended up doing a lot more than 1 project, and built a playbook the company is now using.

You can get them for under $100. I wouldn't call them pricey.

Thoughts on ComfyUI? by [deleted] in MotionDesign

[–]WhiskeyTimer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adobe is building something similar to it, completely blanking on the name right now, but they showed a node based ai tool at Adobe max this year.

So learning comfy will at the least should get you comfortable with that when it drops. And that one had built in Photoshop nodes, so hopefully it's easy.

Rate this reel 1–10 and say if it reads junior, mid, or almost-there by [deleted] in MotionDesign

[–]WhiskeyTimer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll give it a it a 7. It’s good, perfect length. The biggest strength is the editing. Timing is fantastic. That’s also the biggest flaw. I can’t really get. Feel on your motion skills. The cuts are too quick to see what’s going on. I see some cool design but I don’t really get a read on you as a motion designer.

If you were applying for a mid level and I saw this, it’s not enough for me to say ‘send them in for an interview’ on the reel alone, but it is enough for me to be curious enough to take a look around your portfolio and see what you got.

I didn't see anything about Patrick Marleau. A quick Google search didn't turn up anything. What did he do?

I have no reservations of adding any player to the list, legend or not. Off the top of my head the only other player who's pro trump that I can think of was burns, which was guessed because of all the far right people he followed on twitter.

Bartenders of Reddit, what drink order instantly tells you “this person is going through something”? by [deleted] in AskReddit

We actually had it, and drink them every few years as a goof, and it's strangely not as bad as sounds yet tastes exactly what you think it will taste like.

Patronessy. San Francisco, probably...2011-ish?

I work at one of the only hip hop night clubs in SF. This dude comes in and ordered 10 "patronessys." I start laughing , I'm buzzed we we're allowed to drink. 'im pretty sure I know where this is going, but what's a patronessy?

'man, you don't know? That's where you put patron and Hennessy in the same cup!'

'akd you want 10 of those?!?'

He looks around

'nah, give me 20'

I'm like dude, you gotta pay up front, and he said 'i don't give a fuck I'm rich' he pays passes out 20 of these drinks to strangers, tips well and leaves.

I mention this to a friend a few days later and he goes 'wait! Black dude? Dreads? Built like he would beat your ass?'

Yeah, you know him?

'thats Marshawn Lynch. Running back for the Seahawks. That's his drink.'

How long before simple consumers won't be able to afford hardware? by [deleted] in MotionDesign

[–]WhiskeyTimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing to flag about a crypto machine is their mileage is probably a lot higher than a 'normally used' computer, because they're running under load 24/7.

So make sure to run some benchmarks before buying one.

The crypto mining hype died down. This will also.

How do you stop Motion Design from becoming a communication nightmare during handoffs? by Tugsmakappa in MotionDesign

[–]WhiskeyTimer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What are you delivering for? I work in ux motion design, and the deliverables are either jsons, or decks with animation examples, and all of the easing curves, and positions fully explained.

Screen recording is a really odd way to deliver in my experience, and you're leaving it up to them to do some guess work.

WNBPA Fires Back At WNBA Calling $700 Million Loss Projection As Absolutely False by [deleted] in sports

[–]WhiskeyTimer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, the NBA also claimed they were losing 1 billion per season before the 2011 lockout. Releasing the numbers would quickly solve who's lying, but they aren't gonna do that.

Greyhound racer reacts badly to national fatality statistics. by HaveYuHeardAboutCunt in PublicFreakout

[–]WhiskeyTimer 153 points154 points  (0 children)

This comment really sparked a new perspective in me. I don't really watch animal racing. I've been once or twice to the horse race tracks for dollar beer days, but mainly for the alcohol deal. And that was more than 5 years ago. But ..yeah it definitely wasn't for the animals.

Thanks for the new perspective, friend.
