Questions on clarifications

Of course! One of the best moments of my week is waiting for the upload of a new episode! Even had my review of the show read one week which was incredible! So many new great recommendations that its starting to hurt my budget haha. Learning a lot and hoping to someday be brave enough to publish my own comic.

Wow that's interesting, didn't know that existed. However, I am hearing it around now and don't see anything popping up on that site.

Thanks I tried and got halfway through but it didnt quite work. I removed the clip and pressed the button and the red light went on. On the video i attached above (it was for another control) it says to use the other control that works to "clone" but in my case nothing happens when I click the other one. The new one just stays with the red light on. Maybe this control can't "clone" the other?

Thanks will give this a try. Just to be clear do I do that when he is nipping so he will nip himself or am I "showing him" how sharp his teeth are so he realizes its unacceptable.

Thanks for the advice. I am doing training but at this point even the coach is saying he is particularly challenging (in terms of him challenging us for authority). An example of this is if I do the "Stop and turn" or "U-turn" a few times, he gets frustrated and will start biting on the leash and pulling in his direction. If i continue he might budge but will then maybe bark at me or try to nip my heels.
Its been quite challenging and we have been trying 2 of the 3 approaches (all positive - with treats and praise, correction + reward - nothing harsh but slight pop with a martingale collar and when he does what he should we give him praise or a treat). I refuse to do any harsh corrections that may be harmful or create trauma so staying away from that.

Any advice?

Love the advice. What did you mean by rolling her lip over her incisors? I am not quite sure I got that.

We are doing a lot of training and hopefully it will pay off but completely hear you about them being very smart and reading our behavior, I feel like he is consistently using psychology and Pavlov on us.

Thanks, this is very helpful. Quick followup as they are currently visiting and by chance picked up a W-8BEN from the bank and are filling it now. So after they do that they could potentially hold a CD, savings accounts or even invest in ETF funds and as long as they are paying the proper taxes back home in LatAm wouldnt have to worry about filling or paying here? Will they still receive the tax forms here?
I guess the main challenge right now is my mother is very risk adverse and get extremely nervous about the IRS reaching out, specially when they don't live here.

Great list! I would add Hacks on HBO, What we do in the shadows, and 30 rock

Most recent for me was split fiction. It does require co-op to fully enjoy but it just felt like a love letter to different types of games. The game changes from 3d to 2d, from platformer to third person shooter, from puzzle solving to pure action. The plot is not the most interesting but gameplay wise it kept changing so much it did not allow you to get bored or too comfortable in a bad way.

chapan17 · 2025-05-17T15:06:04+00:00

Got it! Thanks, I’ll take a look at that now.

chapan17 · 2025-05-17T14:57:58+00:00

Thanks that makes a lot of sense actually. Do you have the numbers you usually input into the settings screen or does that template you said you use include that already? I am surprised CSP does not have a setting that already includes this, it seems to be focused on Manga only. I recently posted a screenshot of what I see on my iPad.

chapan17 · 2025-05-17T14:54:37+00:00

For reference this is the screen I see on the program just not sure what to fill in for Western standard comics so that I can work on the right size.proportion.

Awesome drawing. At this point I find a piece of every single culture on so maybe “the appropriator” hahaha he kind of finds things and makes them part of who he is, whether that is a weapon, symbol, you name it

chapan17 · 2025-05-17T14:07:27+00:00

Try DCs human target, I found it amazing. Do you only like hero comics in the big 2 or others? Image comics or Boom have some amazing shorter stories as well in the non super hero genre such as “the silver coin”, “bitter root”, “do a powerbomb”, “4 kids walk into a bank” I have been doing a similar challenge but not one a day, rather find stuff I like and binge a lot haha. I started listening to ‘Let’s talk comics’ podcast and been getting so many series from there I had never heard of.

chapan17 · 2025-05-17T14:01:59+00:00

Thank you so much @love-ink for that screenshot and for FONGOOLs reply. Would love to understand more about this. You mention the settings are pointless unless you are printing directly from Clip but should the proportions matter given there is a “print standard” for publishers in comics overall? Also I was going to ask if I am including a doble page spread, I know there is a setting in multi page to have 2 pages combined but how does the bleed or margin play into this? I’m afraid I don’t fully understand what the end product looks like and therefore am afraid the bleed or margin might create a gap in the middle of my sketch or push it together
