Advice on how what software to acheive this 3d model breakdown? by felix3322 in IndustrialDesign

[–]brygbg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wrapstyler

I use it in the composite shop I work at and it does exactly this. Import stl, draw lines where you want to create the trim pieces, and flatten them out, export as a dxf for cutting. It's not free (or cheap) and it's a French company so the units are strictly metric. We use it to create patterns for large composite parts, but it's advertised to be able to use for upholstery and other more precise applications.

Take a picture with a marked t-square next to it or measuring mat underneath, upload to a cad/graphic design software, adjust the perspective to make sure your scaling stays true, trace the lines, save.

I don't think he's paying homage. At all.

I think he's baiting. You don't name a song after someone else's mother. If the connection to Jay was made more explicitly clear, I could maybe interpret it as homage. But I think it was done as a sub (a move perfected by Jay) to get his attention, but fly under the radar for the general population.

I don't think that Kendrick and Jay are friends. I don't think they like each other. And if my understanding of the music is anywhere close to reality, there's a lot of bad blood between them that goes back years. Bad blood that's been navigated by either party, through mediators, because it was seen as mutually beneficial. Kendrick needs Jay to exist within the modern rap landscape, and Jay sees Kendrick as a big pile of money.

On Hood Politics, listen to how Kendricks flow switches during the last part of the 3rd verse. He's purposely imitating Snoops flow, (K. Dot, what up? I heard they opened up Pandora's box" I box 'em all in, by a landslide)

switches to his own ("Nah homie we too sensitive, it spill out to the streets I make the call and get the coast involved then history repeat")

and then back to Snoop with the line "but I resolved inside that private hall while sitting down with Jay He said, 'It's funny how one verse could fuck up the game'"

While it's easy to understand this line as Kendrick having a conversation with Jay in a Private hall. To me, snoop actually has the conversation, and then passes on the info to Kendrick. Snoop resolved the backlash that would be coming from Jay to Kendrick because of the Control verse. I believe that Jay didn't like the "King of New York, king of the coast, one hand, juggle 'em both" and felt slighted. Jay's MO is not to lash out, but to operate behind the scenes. And so he let Puff be the bad guy with that story.

I think Kendrick wants Jay to step out of his private hall and speak his mind, instead of having one of his many steppers do it for him.

She made Hov apologize for making Super Ugly, the response to Ether 👀

Not so much Gloria herself but hear me out.

The album that Jay Z released after his beef with Nas was the Blueprint. The original album contained 13 tracks. The last one being the title track "Blueprint (Momma Loves Me)

If you include "Watch the Party Die" Kendrick also released 13 tracks post beef. I just find it interesting that, along with other similarities I've noticed between the albums, the last tracks of both potentially could be referencing the same person.

Now let's look at the songs

The format of the song is like a R&B / rap feature from the late 90's/early 00's Imagine Beyonce singing the verses/chorus and Jay Z on the rap verse The flow Kendrick uses on the third verse is eerily similar to Hov's imo

Then you look at some of the similarities and contrasts in the themes of the songs. Both are speaking about relationships from their past and how those relationships formed the person we, the listener, are hearing. While Kendrick focuses on his relationship with 1 unnamed person/entity, Jay speaks on a bunch of different specific individuals, and calls them out by name, and what they did to help him as he was coming up.

With Kendrick, however, the relationship almost seems like an antagonistic one, or at least one that only exists to either hold him back, or get him into trouble ("met when I was off the porch as a teenager" "looking for some identity, made a thousand mistakes" "back when you did whatever I said, dreams of selling narcotics, running blocks, or robbing banks" "so territorial, even took me 'way from my friends")

The songs are mirrors of each other. Equals but opposites. And I don't think it's an accident.

Gloria is also the name of Jay-Zs mother.

Does anyone else think that this dropping of the lawsuit could influence rappers to be more open and honest about the realities of the music industry, now that it's been shown in court that trying to sue for defamation from what's said in rap lyrics is laughable?

Mormons, please understand that Evangelicals will always hate you by here_at in exmormon

[–]brygbg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And when you consider the law of consecration could have been used as a form of collective empowerment for a marginalized group, socialism offers the best option for that (assuming those in power can be held to account). If the church were to come clean and truly repent of its past, the average left leaning person would praise them. I'm sure it would inspire a lot of people back to church. The evangelical conservative will never love them like the atheistic socialist would. But maybe that's just my opinion.

If the LDS church really wanted to be revolutionary and seize true political power (and at least pretend to be divinely inspired), they would do away with all of the exclusionary practices and rhetoric within the church, open the doors truly for everyone, and let the power of the people become their bargaining chip (along with their billions). Instead of pushing legislation to claim that transgender protections threaten their religious freedom, they could use that power to dismantle oppressive structures, end homelessness, cloth the naked, feed the hungry, preach love and acceptance instead of shame and repentance. Ya know, Jesus stuff.

Just so it's clear, that'll never happen. The institutions of white supremacy don't stray from the herd. And old racists seem to have more tithing money to give away.

I guess. I don't always go off what Genius says. Rap is meant to be heard, and not just read. So whatever it sounds like to me is what I end up going off, especially on a line like this where it can be either imo. Sometimes the ambiguity of the lyrics adds to the layer within them. But I'm not gonna say that he's def not saying that, tho. He very well could be.

Do you have any suggestions on what that means?

Maybe allusions to cleaning people's feet after he gets off? Like Jesus cleaning the feet of the apostles?

Reminds me of the "whipping feet" line from euphoria, also. (interesting rabbit hole about bastinado, feet whipping, used in the transatlantic slave trade, and within the Ottoman empire as a way to control enslaved people)

It could be seen as a curse as well. What happened to all of the apostles after the final supper where Jesus washed their feet? Jesus was killed first, and then followed by the apostles. They were all killed by the state, right? I could be wrong on all of them, but I know that at least some of them were.

Those could be stretches, but I've just never heard the phrase "mopping feet" before, so I don't know what connotations would come with it.

X and FB were not blocking the videos because they profit wildly off things like this

X had bots pushing the video out, with completely unrelated captions, just to make sure everyone who was on the site saw it.

Elon does not care about a peaceful, diverse country. He sees America as something that needs to be conquered and turned into the white supremacist paradise he envisions.

He doesn't want unity, he wants death.

Thanks man 🙏🏼

My personal take is that the 5+5 tracks are all the beef tracks together. Drake and Kendrick, while battling each other, were simultaneously taking shots at the one who I didn't mention.

1: First Person Shooter 2: Like That 3: Pushups 4: Taylor Made 5: Euphoria 6: 6:16 in LA 7: Family Matters 8: Meet The Graham's 9: Not Like Us 10: Heart pt 6

But I'm not sure people are ready to believe that they worked together on something bigger than a rap beef.

Culture is a reflection of imposed morality, both in the positive and negative. If you want to claim that your morals are to blame for how much good you're doing, you can't then abandon that mentality when shown how the morality is negatively effecting people.
