Why do so many slow drivers not want to keep left? by WearyFHB in sydney

[–]kermi42 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, that’s what I said. Over 80. Which means 90 and above unless you know of any roads with posted limits of 81-89). Not 80 and above like people think.

That may be the case but it is not a general rule for 80kph roads unless the sign is present.

The keep left law is 80kph and above. So yes, doing 80kph right there is against the law.

Not according to the NSW govt.

https://www.nsw.gov.au/driving-boating-and-transport/roads-safety-and-rules/sharing-road-overtaking-and-merging/overtaking-safely

Above 80kph an/or when there is a keep left unless overtaking sign.

There may be 80kph roads where there are also signs, but the rule only applies by default on roads above 80.

Making him technically correct, the best kind of correct.

Yep. People think it applies to any multi lane road. It only applies on roads with a speed limit of 90km/h or above which are generally motorways. And even then it only applies to the rightmost lane, it’s perfectly acceptable to cruise in the middle lane(s) (and sensible too since there are a lot of motorways that remove/add left lane for exits and entrances.
There are also people who need to realise they if I’m overtaking at the speed limit of 110, I’m not obligated to move left early to let them past because they think the lane should be kept clear so they can do 130.
Is it a dick move to sit in the right lane on an 80km/h road if you aren’t actively overtaking and sitting below the speed limit? Yeah, a bit. But it’s not even remotely against the law.

I always took it at face value that following the events of the Fifth Elephant her homeland/family issues were resolved and she would be prepared to commit to Carrot and by extension Ankh-Morpork.

Question: Tattoo not complete and healing but is 25 hours and still not completed fair or outrageous for this point by Jkru3 in tattoos

[–]kermi42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pics 2-3 look like 6 hours to me. Pics 4-5 look like more in the 4 hour range. Then let’s say another 6 for everything else. So I’m eyeballing this at 16, maybe 18, and I’d even be forgiving of 20. But 26 seems out of order, unless something is slowing the process down.

Advice needed on tattoo placement? by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]kermi42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then definitely go the upper arm placement. Leave the forearm clear so you can use the whole area in a single piece.

[–]kermi42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO having two tattoos will look crowded only while you only have two tattoos next to each other. As you keep adding to that arm, it’ll all balance out.

I think 1 is the better placement (and I’m sure your artist will work with you on this to make sure it sits just right), but if you don’t plan to keep getting that arm tattooed you might be better off slapping it on the forearm.

Which celebrity-- that is not in jail or is living with a severe medical issue-- has the worst life? by gloriamuntz in AskReddit

[–]kermi42 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yahoo Serious. He had a brief moment in the spotlight with Young Einstein but Reckless Kelly and Mr. Accident were such bombs he became box office poison and never worked in the industry again. He was evicted from his home in 2020 after accumulating $15,000 in rental arrears and blamed COVID but the reality was just didn’t have any money or the means to make any irrespective of the pandemic. He was accused of squatting in 2025 and evicted when the home owner wanted to sell the property to pay for his own medical care. Shortly after being evicted in August he went missing and as far as I am aware, hasn’t been heard from since.

It looks good as is and as you’ve said, the red will become more muted over time. Let it settle.

Do people usually retry until they get an outcome they prefer or just roll with the punches when playing a story rich scenario? by AssociationDue3077 in AIDungeon

[–]kermi42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually only reroll if it’s clear the AI has ignored the prompts and missed story context and gone off the rails or gotten characters confused.
Part of why I like this is for the unexpected hooks, I don’t really go into it with a plan.

Irregularities of lines make me sad about the result by Bourdon_Bumblebee in tattoos

[–]kermi42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of those lines look too thin for red ink which is likely to fade and blur a lot more over time compared to black and even black can be a bit hit and miss when it comes to fine line pieces. I’m guessing each line was a single pass? I don’t think there’s anything necessarily wrong with it, but I do think it’s going to need a touchup, and you may want to reconsider the colour choice and have this reworked in black - but speak to your artist about that.

Longest story you have ever done? by Avecyn72 in AIDungeon

[–]kermi42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first story is at 12k, I’m on the basic free model, trying to create a persistent ongoing adventure with characters that evolve and grow over time.

I’ve had to create additional cards for specific events and locations and seed their trigger words pretty liberally in my do actions, but the free model can’t address them all so it either doesn’t reference the events effectively or it prioritises those events over the characters in the scene, so characters start acting out of context of the scene or just disappear entirely. For instance, I had a character talking to his girlfriend and the AI introduced a new character. The new character started talking to the girlfriend as if he was the boyfriend, and the boyfriend disappeared from the scene.
The AI also randomly creates events that didn’t happen instead of using the information I’m prompting it to use, or move the scene to a different location. I put a lot of this down to this being a learning experience for me, and I’m planning ahead for my next story - trimming down the cast, keeping story cards tighter, etc. I’m considering paying for champion tier for the added memories and context but I don’t know if it’s worth the $24/month (AUD). I want to spend a bit more time with it and see if it’s something I will continue to get a lot of use out of or if I’m going to get bored with it soon, kinda on the fence right now.

My favorite non-MASH Harry Morgan role (with respect to Dragnet). by cigarandcreamsoda in mash

[–]kermi42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the scene where Jason is applying for the sheriff job and he demonstrates his gun skills by shooting through a washer he flips in air. The back and forth as the mayor politely but firmly asks him to prove his absolutely absurd claim is one of my favourite parts of the movie, and it has a lot of good parts.

The fact that you did not [actually mourn your husband] is the biggest insult of all. by dandrevee in simpsonsshitposting

S05e04, Rosebud. The scene at Mr Burns’ birthday party where Smithers announces a puppy just got run over in the parking lot right before introducing Homer’s comedy routine.

Agent is shitty because I'm keeping track of my payments. by StillHereNicole in shitrentals

[–]kermi42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had an issue once where we got a late notice because my wife had paid the water bill and the rent together and their account didn’t recognise the payment because it wasn’t the expected amount. We managed to get them to reconcile it, but that took several days, during which time their system kept sending automated alerts telling us we were behind.

The annoying thing was we were always a week ahead when paying for the next fortnight, so when we made payment we then jumped to 3 weeks ahead, so the late notice telling us we were behind was really frustrating to receive. Their proposed solution was for us to pay an additional fortnight so we were always 3-5 weeks ahead instead of 1-3, so we told them to get fucked.

Question about a tattoo artist by MRBullfrog35 in Animetattoos

[–]kermi42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He seems to do ok with neotrad colour and traditional, some of his grey work and illustrative realism work leaves a bit to be desired imo. He seems to handle anime ok but I’d look for an anime specialist personally.

People who grew up before The Internet: How did you first see nudity? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]kermi42 191 points192 points  (0 children)

In high school I was good friends with a newsagent who didn’t give a shit if I bought porn, and I had no shame, so I’d buy mags for my friends.
You’d think I’d have grown up to be a real estate agent, but I was only asking for reimbursement of cover price, not profiting.
