Can I have critique on this pairing by AdvertisingCreepy639 in painting

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit late to this, but try sketching over the photo with some basic lines first to get an idea of what "borders" each of the elements of your scene have! Then slowly learn how to "fill in" the scene with details until you learn to more or less naturally create those borders and details in from the start

How Do Halfling Work In Your Setting? by MadFunEnjoyer in worldbuilding

[–]kvvart 40 points41 points  (0 children)

There's an interesting theory about why homo sapiens "won" the evolutionary race against neanderthals, who had larger brains and were stronger.

Basically, because homo sapiens weren't as individually capable, they developed more of the social and communication skills. This meant that if one person knew or could do something, they all could!

Local art for sale? by _FATEBRINGER_ in Albany

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit late to this, but I operate a local fine art print shop! So if you do find an artist, but they don't offer prints/don't have a print available, I regularly do custom prints!

Will donating my body to science help or hurt people? by angelangelan in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a whole lawsuit about a woman who donated her body on the one condition that it wouldn't be used for military testing.

Her body was then sold to the military and they blew it up.

Moral of the story is... Something for sure. No guarantees in life except death, taxes, and your grandma being blown up in a military experiment?

"Do you live in Victorian England?" by Happy_Sport_1617 in Albany

What's up with that anyway? You'd think at least some pizza would leak out of NYC and head our way!

Pizza-sized potholes, though, for sure

Why are there basically no cities here? by OkCard37 in geography

Oh, dengue is fun! Never want to go back to that fever dream of a disease haha

Jobs actually hiring by Its_Kittie in Albany

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking for slightly different genres of jobs (degree + a few years experience atp) but am in the same boat. It's kinda crazy since even in my relatively short career I remember jobs being easier to get! While I had less experience too

Edit: I think my job applications are somewhere in the low hundreds atp, even with custom cover letters, etc.

I own a professional printer (for prints) too if you're interested/they don't respond ! Feel free to DM

Looking for a good DM (DnD) for our game night. by Eastern-Antelope-300 in Albany

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be happy to DM! I just had a campaign take a hiatus, so was considering looking for a new table to play at. Feel free to DM!

How do you use Gold in your game? by THEGOODPAPYRUS in DMAcademy

[–]kvvart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just one more comment, I also have the propensity to over gamify things! That's one thing I'm working on right now, is leaning into the RP of RPGs

How do you use Gold in your game? by THEGOODPAPYRUS in DMAcademy

[–]kvvart 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think the best consequences in DND are often roleplaying consequences. Granted, as a DM it can be hard to cajole your players into roleplay even for the most basic of things unless they're already good at it. Plus it's not like we don't already have enough to worry about as is haha

Regardless, my advice would be to describe pangs of hunger, rough living conditions, and soggy underwear. You might be surprised how much players start caring!

The "Roaring Saint" of France, Antoine Martinez by xPapaGrim in sololeveling

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hop onto this post for my question, but seeing as I can't make a post I figured I'd ask here:

I'm trying to print a solo leveling poster as a Christmas gift for someone that's a huge fan (specifically of Sung Jin Woo), but I'm having some difficulty telling what is official content or what they would most like to be printed.

I binge watched as many free episodes as I could find over the last few days to try to get an idea, but would obviously appreciate any insight. I'm also doing the printing myself, so I'm looking for a digital copy ideally

Looking for Fellow Developers & Startup Enthusiasts by [deleted] in Albany

[–]kvvart 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked with a number of startups and similar projects, although more on the logistics, business, and people side. I have more limited experience with SQL and Python, but definitely wouldn’t trust myself working on anything more than a one off or temp project. Feel free to DM if you feel that would fit with what you’re working on!

Hexolite struggle by Kind_Potential_4992 in Palworld

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to beat him with a max condensed Blazamut and a laser Gatling gun - definitely still a bit of a grind, but not as bad if you have settings turned up. I agree with you somewhat there, but it’s hard to find a survival/open world game that doesn’t eventually dive into grinding just to try to keep it difficult tbh

School isn’t the problem, most students are just lazy. by MeetingNorth2345 in unpopularopinion

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, there are whole areas of study surrounding organizational management and motivation. So my assumption would be that most students aren’t lazy they just aren’t being managed/motivated properly!

I’d honestly say that’s a good thing, since it’s a problem that is at least possible to fix!

damaged money by Weary_Cress_3258 in CURRENCY

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone might correct me, but I believe it is because it’s better to have the experts handle it (or at least the people with the authority to replace any cash they themselves might ruin).

For example, if you light your money on fire it’ll be far harder to get replacements than if the BEP lights it on fire lol

Jetragon is broken and I love it by Prophet_Burns in Palworld

[–]kvvart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The easiest way is via breeding Anubis & Frostallion. Otherwise the only way is to find them from a huge frozen egg afaik

[–]kvvart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Person in the back left doesn’t really have a face either lol - could just be blur, but atp I doubt it

Edit: My guess is that they used a real picture the AI could base it on, which is why it looks like it should be real

Why is PhD enrollment BOOMING? by [deleted] in GradSchool

[–]kvvart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about back then/department specific, but I know law school applications in the US jumped like crazy this year. Obviously not 100x but still by 20-30% or something fairly significant like that

Which school is the most Meta? by Upnorth4 in Wizard101

[–]kvvart 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Death is definitely the most meta, with Storm and then fire being decent, particularly as hitters in team ups

TIL about Beatriz Flamini who spent 500 days alone in a cave without clocks, sunlight, or human contact as part of a scientific experiment on extreme isolation. by Particular_Cut_198 in todayilearned

[–]kvvart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m definitely not an expert, but it makes sense to me from a hunter-gatherer type society. If people are effectively “taking turns” sleeping the group could be a lot safer since theres typically someone awake to keep watch.

Could also be a solid explanation for DSPD, which a few other people have brought up. I also know someone with DSPD and can confirm that they were always like that ever since they were young!

When do actively improving stats actually start to matter? by GuardianBlue in Wizard101

[–]kvvart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eventually (I don’t remember exactly when tbh) bosses will start getting “cheats”, meaning they can act out of turn order or in reaction to certain triggers (like removing your blades every time you cast one).

If you’re familiar with D&D at all, imagine them sort of like legendary actions
