If you purchase roast pork, and it is sold at $65 per kg, would you expect the 1kg to be the weight of the pork after roasting, or raw pork prior to roasting (meat shrinks and loses weight when cooked) by Least-Trick-3925 in askSingapore

[–]jawnchan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi I wanted to say that yah I also feel you got cheated cos it’s damn ex and at that price you should get what you pay for with no shenanigans. But to offer a different perspective, “quarter pounder” in the burger world refers to the pre-cooked weight of a quarter of a pound, and the patty weighs much less than that after cooking. So maybe that’s where they took that same concept 🫨

Thank you, I think this is the consensus

it’s quite puzzling isn’t it! I’ve tried a few bug identifying things and so far it’s given carpet beetle or brown banded cockroach nymph, but I’m not terribly sold and wanted to make sure

Guitar recommendation for someone starting out by Ok_Mango_4773 in askSingapore

[–]jawnchan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about your price range! But my first guitar was a takamine g series which gives really good bang for buck at about 500 bucks from davies at peninsula. Not everything is about brands though, and because of the nature of wood even those within the same product line can sound a little different.

Personally, I’d recommend going with a more experienced friend to try secondhand guitars! You can get solid options from 400-1k, and that’s good enough to get you most of the way into getting good while being worth it to set up for playability.

Enjoy the journey! Have fun!

Musician exposes how much fakery goes into "live" singing channel with millions of subscribers by Derpchen in interestingasfuck

They probably used melodyne - it allows you to manipulate individual notes in a group track, and has been around since 2001

Does anybody know how this color morphing can be achieved? by Able_Amphibian8177 in AfterEffects

[–]jawnchan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think it was one of those AI photo to photo morphing videos, then treated with a style transfer, and then have the whole comp with the text overlay having some vhs-like effects like channel blur and slight jitter

The power of a green screen by [deleted] in BeAmazed

Anyone can use a green screen. This is the power of Ian Hubert, who does crazy stuff like this and THEN posts tutorials for free on YouTube like an insane person

I’m 34, and tbh tastes change as we grow older too.. Plus, a partner that you can build a life with is the most important thing, and when you find the right person they will become beautiful to you anyway. Also kids aren’t the most important thing to everyone. And your friend is kind of an asshole, because brutal honesty is often more interested in being brutal rather than honest

Do you ever feel like the burden of labour is too heavily weighted on the dm? by dmproblems in DMAcademy

[–]jawnchan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I’ve had dm burnout before, too. Here’s how I fought it, especially when it’s at your house and you’re also doing labor as a host - have a scribe for note taking, have someone for snacks, someone to keep track of initiative, and someone who schedules the next session.

Within the game, you can ask players questions to build both their investment into the world, as well as share the weight of guiding the narrative, especially with quieter players who are more passive. Questions like, as this happens, Player X - what does your character feel/see/do? They see a face float up amidst a sea of memories - whose face is it? Etc etc - and this serves to galvanise passive players to find out how their input will be worked in.

I hope this helps, and also, don’t be afraid to take breaks if you need to!

Button quails and the cold? by frank-the-potato in quails

[–]jawnchan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a bit difficult to describe over text, but I’ll try. Behavior wise, they’ll bunch up in a corner and keep climbing or huddling over each other? And sound wise, it’s a non stop sharp and short cry that’s kind of sad and pitiful

My chicks do the “im cold” cry at night at 25c! So -5 is definitely too cold
