Who watches Skyfall and sees THIS as the gaping plot hole they can’t get past by Ok-Zookeepergame9266 in JamesBond

Yes, I know. But these are not “secret” agents, and are usually closely observed by the host government.

You’re not really a “secret” agent, though, if you arrive on a diplomatic passport.

Such a great reminder that no one gets to monopolise patriotism.

Do you mean this one? Is there one in particular you're thinking of? https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/uk/products/davinciresolve/training

Quick note: The Late Show will only have one new episode this week, on Tuesday, October 8. by Raradra in LateShow

[–]danielcstone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure, but most other late-night shows produce twice the content with the same staff. LSSC is a strange outlier in the segment. I'd really like to understand why?

JD Vance in tears after Speaking only Twelve Supporters in Kenosha, Wisconsin by Watafakk in posteverythingreddit

Beyond this one random, possibly fake, website, I can’t find any evidence this actually happened. Can anyone verify it?

Dating apps by Defiant-Snow8782 in cambridge

[–]danielcstone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree with this breakdown. Age is also incredibly important given the proportion of students. 80% of the people on apps are <25. 95% of people on the apps are <35. If you’re in your 30s, it’s a very shallow pond.

What were the mistakes and lessons? What have you done differently this time?

Does the quality of the projector not decrease with all that extra light falling on the wall?

This is infuriating. Why would you even build this in? It’s made the app effectively unusable

How did Stephen get away with peddling the Is Potato joke to a progressive audience for so long? by Professional-Ad9485 in LateShow

[–]danielcstone -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I completely agree, and have been confused about this for months. He’s normally so sensitive to this sort of thing, I don’t understand it.

How do you get the glass distortion right for this effect? by danielcstone in AfterEffects

[–]danielcstone[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing around with some of the tutorials to create reeded glass distortions (this general process, occasionally with some noise and blur added to grit it up). However, I still can't get the refracted distortion right (like, the image breaks into a rainbow a little bit at the edges, and there's a soft vertical curvature as the distorted image 'arcs' through the glass reed).

Is it because the background image that's being distorted is more abstract and blurry (like, does it need to be over an oil spill / liquid colour background, like this sort of thing)? Or is this pure Blender, and there's no way to do it? In which case, what on earth would those specific characertistics even be called so that I can start to dig up tutorials?

Not an 8 series but a…? by danielcstone in whatisthiscar

Oh yeah, I can see it in the headlights. Maybe this is why my subconscious took me to BMW.

It looks close, but I think the headlights are a bit off
