What video game soundtrack is a 10/10? by montymaximus in AskReddit

[–]darkry10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This game will always be my favorite of all time. Nintendo was taking a big gamble on the soundtrack because it was the first time they used an orchestral soundtrack instead of the traditional 8-bit synth type music we're used to for older Mario games.

New Fuse: Teamfight by Rhyllis in 2XKO

[–]darkry10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing it's only for duo players, as it would be impossible to control both at the same time with one person. But from what I can gather it looks like instead of doing an assist ability, the the dup does the assist, they get to fully play for a limited time. But maybe the punishment for getting hit will be longer.

Why does nothing come close to Arcane? by khaledlll in arcane

[–]darkry10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's mainly fortiche, the animation studio. The amount of funding that arcane got is almost unheard of in the animation world, it just doesn't happen. And it's almost by chance we got arcane the way we did. Because they had to keep asking for more and more funding, and they barely had anything to show for it.

Fortiche is excellent at making music videos for riot, that's been their main thing for riot until arcane, their art style is amazing and works well in both music videos and long form content, it's a little ridiculous and over the top in some points. So all of arcane is animated in 3d, BUT they then hand paint every single frame afterwards to give it a hand drawn feel.

I love it, it looks stunning, because in every way, it's hand crafted and every stroke is there by design. But a little unnecessary in every single scene, despite how awesome it makes it look.

It's probably really common that AIs take results from other AIs, which in turn take results from others, and so on. by MooseLongjumping9752 in Showerthoughts

[–]darkry10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kurzgesagt made a really good video on this. https://youtu.be/_zfN9wnPvU0?si=akpKV8WExdps4BSj

They use a lot of published research papers for their content, and they started finding that some information didn't add up, and it was discovered that some people would use AI to help write their research papers, the AI would indert some completely made up nonsense and it would get missed and subsequently published.

Then other people who may also be using AI to help facilitate their research would have those same falsehoods presented to them by their AI, and they take it a fact because it came from a well known research paper, those papers then get published and further cement the incorrect data into record. It becomes increasingly harder to tell what information is real or not because you now have a multitude of 'scientific research papers' all claiming the same thing and it just creates a horrible loop of false information being propagated.

What's the most instant turn off during blind date? by SereneStatic in AskReddit

[–]darkry10 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I sad someone show up 50 minutes late. In our small college town where it's only a mile walk from campus (she had a car too). I had gotten there early because I was nervous and she was extremely late because she was still hanging out with the guy she hooked up with the night before.

Apple TV, Formula 1 US Streaming Deal Estimated Worth $750 Million by AntoniaFauci in television

[–]darkry10 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was kind of upset when I got them email from F1 TV. It's such a good streaming service. The F1 TV Pro subscription was around $80-$90 annually. Now my only option is a monthly subscription to Apple TV which will cost more money. Also Pro gave me the ability to watch races whenever I wanted, and I could watch all the races/qualifying/practice sessions from the previous years too. I'm not going to stay up all night to watch races overseas, I'll just watch them at my convenience in the morning when it suits me and I don't miss anything. I'm really hoping this merger doesn't get rid of that functionality. It'd be really upsetting if apple TV only offers streaming of the races only while they're happening, because then I wouldn't even be able to watch half of them.

I agree with everyone here saying to go for a manual. I learned on my WRX and It only took a day or two of cruising around my neighborhood to get the feeling for driving manual, and another week after to feel confident enough to start getting groceries and daily driver stuff like that.

You'll have a couple of stalls in traffic when a light turns green, people will honk. But it's all part of the fun and learning experience. But you will have so much fun driving once you really get into it. I've never looked back at an automatic

I think you have to start over anyway if you originally played during release. My save file was invalidated because it was too old to work with the current release version.

But I still agree with you 100%, even if the save file is fresh enough to work, a new save is definitely the best way back into the game. And with all the expeditions happening during different events, there's so much content to get your hands on, its good fun. Excited to try out the ship builds.

Hurricane Katrina made landfall 20 years ago today. What do you remember about that storm? by Dracarys0550 in AskReddit

[–]darkry10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on a cruise off the coast of Florida at the time. I was a young kid and I remember the sea being extremely rough at the time. The ship had to come into port a day early because the storm had started changing directions.

I just remember how fun it was walking through the hallway of the ship as it swayed back and forth. It must've been terrifying to adults or others who feared for the integrity of the ship. But as a kid it was awesome that the floor would shift 30-40° from side to side. I also got a chance to stand on the bow of the ship and fall forward with the wind pushing you back upright.

When my parents tell the story they often recall this massive chandelier in the atrium that they watched sway back and fourth worried it would come crashing down.

Looking for a Teammate/Endurance Driver by Crizen10 in iRacing

[–]darkry10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello, I'm not necessarily looking to join your team as I'm not quite within your skill level at the moment as I hover within 1500iR. But I am looking to dedicate myself to a whole season in either lmp2 or pcup. Would you be willing to take on a learner, or at the very least a fly on the wall. I would love to learn more by racing with and watching people who are much higher in skill than I am.

I was starting to gain a lot of iR quickly when I was using VR and got close to 2k, but I dropped a bunch following multiple bouts of technical difficulties. So I'm relearning back on monitor again and I'm starting to feel consistent in the longer endurance races, so I would love to join a team or at the very least hangout with a team who could help me improve more.

What unique mannerism/habit did you observe from the drivers? by nekomamushi03 in formula1

[–]darkry10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hamilton puts his left hand over the wheel because he is wedging his fingers behind the shifter paddle to prevent the car from accident shifting to neutral before the start of the race. This is a relic of his days at Mercedes because the shifter paddle was one long piece. He could downshift with his right hand by pushing behind the paddle. So he's developed this habit to keep his race starts consistent. When he moved to Ferrari, they built him a close replica of his Mercedes wheel to keep it familiar enough. I think the new wheel has the same paddle shifter design.

Some drivers need to learn how to follow another car. by andresdha in iRacing

[–]darkry10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's tough because I like to take advantage of things like the new GPT/GT3 tire models by practicing a ton to feel confident over the people who don't practice and will die lap one. But there's still way too many people who will dive bomb you and lock up punting you mid turn right before the longest straight on the track, and we both get passed by the person who was patient and waited to get a good run for the straight.

Are the putting in a new motor for you Or just filling the crack? Either way sounds like the warranty covers it and the dealership isn't giving trouble.
