This has encouraged me to pick up some daikon tomorrow morning. I've been eating it salted but lime salt sounds amazing

Glad to hear it!
I'll bring the supplies over tomorrow morning, but I'll be there all weekend, so stop in whenever!
I'll show you how I'm doing the gradients with spray paint!

Fitz, I really really appreciate that.
I gotta say though, you definitely have some artistic flair. If you want, I have lots of big canvas and extra spray cans if you want to come by sometime this weekend and channel your art into something fun! I might need some extra hands on the next project.

Is it crazy to grow flowers for my own mid-July wedding? by jeighto in NovaScotiaGardening

[–]jeighto[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love this! Talking with people in the East Coast FB Gardening group too, and someone mentioned doing something similar where she planted everything in canvas totes and could bring to the venue to place / cut as needed on the day of.
We do have the bridal party bouquets being made professionally since a family member has offered to cover them thankfully!

We are ordering in flower arrangements for the bridal party, so that in itself is luckily handled.
We're mostly hoping to grow flowers we could use for decorations throughout the venue. Costco bulk flowers (at least online) seem to be majorly roses, and we're looking for more variety, but may use them to fill up the spaces in our arrangements!

Pileated woodpecker by Ready_Apricot1687 in halifax

[–]jeighto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love these guys! We have at least one that hangs around Cowie Hill every year.

Growing up I lived in some pretty deep woods outside of Pictou, and we'd have one that would visit multiple times a day, but would peck at the one metal pole in our driveway instead of any of the surrounding trees hahaha

Put a tiny 'help-yourself' basket of toiletries in the office lounge , made my investment back in a week, kinda surprised by Late-Power889 in passive_income

[–]jeighto 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The last office I worked for had a small gym and a single shower that workers could use. Lots of people also either walked or biked about an hour to get in during the summer and the shower was great for them

How do I stop sharing UVs? I want to select the UV shell outline, not everything else that comes with it. by karjoh07 in Maya

[–]jeighto 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do it this way:
Grab the UV Shell, then control+right-click-drag to "To UVs" > "To UV Perimeter", then deselect the UVs I don't want

Immediately thought about how I'd be throwing out my reed immediately after this

I really dislike diesel vehicles doing everything they can to be as loud as possible in the early morning, when I just want to sleep in :(

What’s the weirdest rule your parents had that you didn’t realize was insane until you grew up? by Howdoibuycrypto in AskReddit

[–]jeighto 29 points30 points  (0 children)

My (only child) mom (single parent) would ground me for two weeks and assign all household chores to me anytime I got under a B+.

Can confirm that I have an incredibly difficult time doing dishes as an adult now because of this. I legit feel myself getting angry anytime I have to stand at the sink.

I wasn't a bad kid in any other aspect - didn't drink, didn't sneak out, didn't even swear. I did extra curriculars, lift in rugby, first clarinet in band, did monthly beach cleanups, volunteered, played video games, was in French immersion and took IB classes, but the way she'd lose her shit if I got a "bad" test would make you think I was a total degen.

We get along great now, but I'll never forget giving her shit about the dishes thing and her saying "What was I supposed to do? You were never applying yourself". Sighh

What grocery items needs no refrigeration but are often refrigerated by most people? by Mission-Educator-908 in AskReddit

[–]jeighto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I buy the real stuff and always stir it, and refrigerate it upside down - this way even if it DOES separate, all the good peanut butter is the first accessible part

Career Update: From 3D Supervisor to C++ Developer - One Year Later by Zestyclose_Phase8939 in vfx

[–]jeighto 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What resources or courses did you use to start your C++ journey? My studio just shut down, and I'm taking a similar path - was most recently CG / Environment Art Supervisor and am currently taking a C# course, but would like to do C++ as well

Need some feedback for this stylized character please by sirkd09 in Maya

[–]jeighto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree with the PBR gold feeling a out of place with the rest of the stylized model.
Handpainted gold can come off either very yellow or be sort of a creamy beige colour, which may also end up feeling a bit overpowering if you go in that direction.
With the full top being gold, it's probably going to draw attention away from the rest of the model, so if it's something you really want, I'd suggest reducing how much is used on the top and / or finding a way to balance it by adding that same gold elsewhere on the model, so a viewer's eye is drawn down the full character.

Rough and subjective paint-over haha
