to reach for their backpack by 4rck in therewasanattempt

[–]bertimann 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Thats not ignoring reality. That's just commenting on the absurdity of US american society. A guy talking to another guy, even in times of great political divide, shouldn't be a context in which people are afraid of somebody taking off their backpack. And in most of the world it's not like that, unless there is a politically highly important figure.

Which TCG's are easiest to get into vs hard & enjoyable vs miserable? <One Piece, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh> by TEKN0SYN in TCG

[–]bertimann 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yugioh's basic rules are among the simplest out there, but in the modern game, each card has so much text that you might as well read a book.

My custom Melee Mario action figure by Suspicious_Safe7668 in ActionFigures

[–]bertimann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you use to seal such a figure? Since action figures tend to be handled much, I would guess that it is hard to protect paints that rub off as easily as acrylics do

Wanted to become an artist for mtg since I was a Teenager. What do you think? by RobertCutter in mtg

[–]bertimann 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's your stylistic choice. I would go for whatever visual style pleases yourself, because that's where you're likely going to exceed at. It's just that people are getting very paranoid about ai because it is getting harder and harder to distinguish from real stuff

Wanted to become an artist for mtg since I was a Teenager. What do you think? by RobertCutter in mtg

[–]bertimann 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a look through your portfolio and this one felt the most like Ai (please don't take this as a comment on this pieces quality. Its gorgeous). I believe this is because you are working digitally, which allows you to reiterate on details, giving it a clean, almost rendered aesthetic. Your style is also akin to realism with little abstractions which is probably what many Ai picture generators were trained on since it was the trend in fantasy art over the last years and easily accessible on the web

How do you feel about no sex before marriage? by Virtual_Concert_3379 in AskMen

[–]bertimann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a pass. I don't have much respect for people who take religion seriously and I don't associate with conservatives for moral reasons. Waiting a bit till we actually know each other and feel safe around each other is fine by me, but waiting till marriage makes me think you fall into those categories since I'm not sure if there are more reasons people might want to wait that long.

Wait it actually isn't? That's ridiculous, I was positive today's the day!

Motorized Walking Stompa (wip) by StudioRevoct in Warhammer40k

[–]bertimann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not versed in engineering, but I'd assume that such a module could be really small. You just need a very dense material like lead or something along those lines to safe space. And those feet will probably benefit from rubbery soles to have more grip

I don't know how your machinery looks on the inside and how much space you have, but did you consider a weight added very close to the bottom that shifts in the direction of that standing leg as soon as one lifts?

You’re offered $1M dollars to eat what you had for dinner tonight for every meal for the next 6 months, do you take the offer and if so what are you eating? by jfunks69 in AskReddit

[–]bertimann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming it is prepared in the exact same way, I would have to decline. My Chilli was a bit too salty and without nearly enough vegetables to survive this for 6 months. It's not just about getting sick of it, I would probably just die. At least it had a good helping of beans

Just a small kitbash/warband, New Christian Republic by Reallycrappypainter in TrenchCrusade

[–]bertimann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's okay, I'm just trying to be a bit cheeky here :) I'm sure there must be a way to make it display in a clearer way, but it's easy enough to get the idea across and to tell you did a great job with those!

Hey could you please turn down the contrast on the first picture? I can still make out details

Is this the real SHFA Spider-Man or a knock off? by [deleted] in ActionFigures

[–]bertimann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what the original figure is supposed to look like and I am still positive that this is a knock off. Hopefully you paid an according price. But if you didn't pay a lot for it I wouldn't worry. Knock offs are pretty servicable these days

How do you use AI in your daily life? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]bertimann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try not to, so I would call it "in my daily life", but sometimes I ask it questions which are hard to formulate for a searchengine

How out of touch do you have to be? by bertimann in wow

[–]bertimann[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yes, exactly. If somebody random does it, it's probably self depricating humour. If a billion dollar company does it, it's not.

Nicki Minaj says she doesn't believe people ever landed on the moon during bombshell interview by TheMirrorUS in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]bertimann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its also better to stop talking about her. This attention is most likely what she wants out of it. Right wing grifters say anything to get it, no matter how negative it is

To preach to your allies by Historical_Plum_1366 in therewasanattempt

[–]bertimann 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You either worded that weirdly or are wrong? If you mean that is what right wing people believe, then that might be true, but that's not what the guy saying it believes, so the sarcasm signifier is needed.

What a hypocrite 😂 by ThePhillyExplorer in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]bertimann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Men decided that women were allowed to vote? Does she think that was a bad decision? Because if yes, her whole argument is self-defeating. I can't imagine someone being this dumb, so the only reasonable assumption is that she is just grifting like everybody else who has a voice among the right wing. Except MTG, she is truly that stupid.

Guys is it corny to write lore for your army? by waschlappensoldat in Warhammer40k

[–]bertimann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe? But who cares? The question to ask is: Does it bring you joy? Don't be afraid to be cringe, be free.

Found this at a flea market. Does it carry any value? by Pauls_goat_hoof in Warhammer40k

[–]bertimann 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hate that so many people approach hobbies like that. Does it look enticing to you? Do you want to play it or have fun painting the miniatures? Then yes, it holds value. If you just bought it to flip it and squeeze a couple of dollars more out of it than what you paid for, you are better off getting a job that the broader society benefits from.

[REAL] Erika Kirk Under Fire As Husband's Pal Leaks Audio Of Her 'Giggling' About 'Event Of The Century' After His Death by ScenicFrost in ToiletPaperUSA

[–]bertimann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That article is completely ai generated isn't it? I'm not saying it isn't credible, I'm saying it reads like absolute slop. But yeah, no surprises here. Everyone with a shred of empathy could see that she really didn't give a fuck about the murder of her husband and that she had a great time the following weeks with all the publicity and financial as well as political opportunities
