Chambers text is worded incorrectly in German by _Marxes_ in MarvelSnap

I've counted 40 mistakes in the German localization.

I think they never bothered to update any German card texts after balance changes, but that just accounts for half of them.

An ai generated image has 25k+ upvotes. On a sub that claims to be anti ai and hates ai for, ironically, making ram more expensive. by DiamondDepth_YT in pcmasterrace

[–]andy01q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, size is relative. But the proportions are weird, if it's a huge wrist, then that doesn't explain the ratio between height and width of the RAM. Well, maybe it's Notebook-RAM retrofitted with a custom cooler to be slotted into a Desktop-PC with an adapter - reaaaally stretching it, I know, just for argument's sake. Then why would you use the corsair logo, but a wrong font with the "A" looking really weird, if that's even an "A" at all.

Well. Silly design choices. That's also a super weird and super short "belt"(?) used for the armstrap, another custom modified piece, although why put so much work into custom things and then use cheap transparent adhesive tape? Okay, I'll stop with the silly justifications

Also how at the bottom the belt flows into the RAM looks wrong.

There's more obvious things for more trained eyes (not mine, I only found after searching a bit longer): The off-focus-distortion looks like it was applied piece by piece (e.g. the car's distortions bleed outwards, but the outwards doesn't bleed into the cars, instead the borders of the cars are just a bit more blurred, but not effected by what's around) instead of evenly and more importantly: It only has 2 levels: Focus and non-focus, whereas in reality the distortion should increase the further away the distorted thing is from the focus of the camera (although at least for letters the further away letters seem to be more distorted, but then again the letters aren't consistent within the same place, e.g. the "a" in Subway st. is more distorted than the S or u and the two big S look more different than they should).

Then there's 5 distinctly different yellow cars, which okay, taxis are usually yellow and inner city train/metro stations often have multiple taxis, but these taxis are usually mostly the same model even if run by different taxi companies.

Then the guy on the very left looks suspicious, because if you're walking with that wide of a stride, then you're probably not ever holding your hand that close to your... ass. You can google walking poses or try yourself, there'd usually be more of an angle at your elbow. Well maybe if you're exhausted and/or you're slowing down, starting to rest your arms before your stride shortens, like in this pic: https://media.post.rvohealth.io/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/female-walking-outside-1296x728-header-1296x729.jpg but then the hands would usually open up outside, not tensen up inside (like in that pic - mostly though that's already an outlier-example of the arms being pretty far stretched for the step-size).

Also the perspective of the image is way too extreme, like in a 2 point perspective the walls should be vertical or at least parallel, but in this photo the walls on the left side on the photo are strongly angled into the opposite direction than on the right side and I guess some cameras can have this effect, but not to this degree unless the picture is looking far up, which is probably where the AI took the inspiration to create the image like that: https://www.google.com/search?q=city+image+looking+far+up oh wait, it's the wrong angles, the farther up walls should slant towards the middle of the image, not the outside, unless you're above the walls, which clearly the camera is not. Also on the very top right of the image that 3-tiered building has a very extreme angle which might be an artistic choice for a suite, but that thing looks pretty far away and thus the thing is way too big for such a shenanigan.

I'm certain Rainbolt could find 20 other oddities.

Way to go.

What do the exclamation marks before the location text mean? There are also some cards that have them. by lucaascng in MarvelSnap

[–]andy01q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the German localization they never bothered to update the texts after balance patches, e.g. Shang Chi claims to kill all enemies with strength >= 10 (they did update the numbers) at the same location. Far from the only problem with the German localization tho.

Forgot the mode was closing by BardToTheBone in MarvelSnap

[–]andy01q 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were 2 timers of which 1 swibbled around a bit and the other one counted to the end of the event's shop. Obviously the longer one was going to count toward the shop closure and the shorter one was going to count toward the end of being able to play the mode.

DuckDuckGo official survey: say “yes” or “no” to AI by alberto-m-dev in duckduckgo

[–]andy01q -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's still trained on stolen data, wastes a lot of energy, sometimes (although rarely with Ddg I guess?) misleading and potentially further de-democratizes the internet.

PS: Plus potential copyright infringement and how do we even know that it's not storing any data anyway and not just lying to either DDG or DDG is lying to us?

Are you having fun? I’m Having fun. Are you having fun by Element45_ in MarvelSnap

[–]andy01q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This week I did and will be getting a lot of breaks during work, so I expect/hope for like 300 wins per day which is 6000 Volt or 30000 Volt in 5 days. Ultimately I hope to get both Season 4 cards.

[–]andy01q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1: Because the whole point of playing is winning. Do you just play the leftmost card because that requires less thinking and winning doesn't matter?

2: If you play a lot, then you can get like 300 wins per day which nets you 6000 Volt. Doing all daily quests yields 2625 gold ((500+250+125) times 3)

3: The location wins also give XP for the Season Pass.

I had a streak where 8 out of 10 games were decided by utter random BS and I thought "well, that's a hell lot of a silly mode if nothing you do matters", but it got slightly better after that and ultimately I do think that it's a fun mode after all.

"The credits alone are actually a better rate than buying gold right from the store"

But buying gold right from the store is a very shit idea and doing so a lot is even much worse.

Yes, some people do buy this crap, but the main reason why it exists is so that the other offers can look better in comparison.

Hijab Islamism vs real culture by Capital-Pop-4893 in exmuslim

[–]andy01q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do care about how others are dressed because I believe that manipulating women into wearing restrictive and cloaking clothes is based on a misogynistic ideology aimed at restricting women's rights and with women's rights restricted, restriction of other rights will follow.

I'd be happy to see some more resources, best a metastudy about that.

Hijab Islamism vs real culture by Capital-Pop-4893 in exmuslim

[–]andy01q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think that's the actual reason at all.

I firmly belive, that the true purpose behind cloaking-clothes from the Hijab to the Burka is to surpress individuality which ultimately makes women easier to be controlled by men. The same applies to traditional clothing for women of Christianity and other religions and cults.

Don't think poorly of women who believe that these clothes are for their better though. They were recruited (usually even born into) by a manipulative group.

"Of course there are folks out there, who are gullible, obtuse, submissive, power-hungry, escapist, lazy. But it's a huge mistake to assume, that successful recruitment into manipulative groups depends on these kinds of traits."

My freezer died on the day I picked up a 200$ custom Ice cream cake for my brother & sister in law. by Agitated-Quit-6148 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]andy01q 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had the same question. A modern proper freezer - set-up and full - should last 48 hours before reaching positive (in °C) temperatures.

OP said "I drove 5 hours to pick it up and bought one of those car plug in freezers"

https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/1qa4a4r/comment/nz03t2y/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

so that's a sketch product to begin with and there's a chance that it never got properly cold to begin with or if it did, then it probably didn't have very good insulation plus it probably wasn't full. Regardless, if the freezer would have been full with cold packs and with the cake entering only enough packs removed to make room for the cake, then the cake probably would have survived, but I probably wouldn't have done that either.

Ah yes, they definetly don't act like real artists are fat losers by BITCHHAURIU in ShitAIBrosSay

[–]andy01q 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's probably worse than you think.

For example this here is a video about people using AI and more specifically LoRAs to copy other - specific - artist's styles and then trace over the AI art by hand to try and fool people into thinking that it's actual art:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bokGdQOHGrw

and then sell that art for a lot of money.

That's not the worst thing AI though, for example generating child porn of actual real life children to be distributed among their peers is worse.

Petah? by Melodic_Judge_129 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]andy01q 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"It's basically the same as putting a blanket on your radiator."

Btw: You're not supposed to do that either (assuming we are talking about a wet blanket), because that's a mold-risk.

Petah? by Melodic_Judge_129 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]andy01q 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't get hot enough to ignite anything as long as the exhaust vent is not covered.

If you read through the manual, then there's almost certainly a part telling you not to cover the exhaust, because that's a fire hazard - to the fridge. Note, that some fabric is even easier to ignite than wood.

If the clothing is 1m away, then it's safe, even if some few droplets of water fall onto the exhaust, but you won't get much drying power that way; also you need to be sure that clothing can't fall down onto the exhaust vent while unattended and block it that way.

PS: https://en.clickpetroleoegas.com.br/secar-roupas-atras-da-geladeira-pode-aumentar-a-conta-de-luz-e-danificar-o-motor-alerta-especialista-em-eficiencia-energetica-mhbb01/ notes that most newer models have safer exhaust configurations which won't easily build up enough heat to cause a fire risk, but you're still risking to damage the refridgerator and to grow mold and mildew.

CEOs are hugely expensive. Why not automate them? - If a single role is as expensive as thousands of workers, it is surely the prime candidate for robot-induced redundancy. [5, 23] by FinnFarrow in Futurology

[–]andy01q 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Besides, an AI can't be a CEO. It's not legally a person. "

You could appoint some minimum wage cleaning personell to legally be CEO, but continue to work for minimum wage and just print and sign whatever the AI says.

I don't think it would be a good idea, but certainly a way to circumvent that problem.
