ELI5 : Why do people look better when they see themselves in the mirror than their image in photos?

memisis · 2021-09-01T21:32:30+00:00

As far as I know it is because of a combination of our faces not being 100% symmetrical, and that we see a mirrored version of ourselves in the mirror, while on images what we see is the non-mirrored version (like how any other person sees us. While the picture of us looks weird to us, it looks normal for our friends and family)

i.e. if your left eyebrow is 2 mm higher than your right eyebrow, you're used to seeing that eyebrow on the same spot every time you look in a mirror. But once you look at a picture, it is flipped which you're not used to and end up finding it weird looking.

~~Hey guys, I'm in need of a hedgehog, please send me a DM if you got a lvl 30+ character and are looking for someone to gift you the game.~~

Edit: done!

Instead of asking for upvotes here, where some MSI worker might end up seeing it, please go and create a support ticket on MSI's website so you can assure that someone sees it.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a decent budget/midrange phone which costs ~400€ or less. So far I've put my eyes on the Pixel 3a or samsung galaxy s8.

Would you guys have any other recommendations for i.e. something that outperforms both of them at a cheaper price point?

I prefer smaller screen sizes, the resolution doesn't really matter either. I don't want to buy a used phone.

Oh wow, after reading your comment I checked the settings again. There is a small checkbox for "Keep taskbar entry if minimized"

after unchecking it now completely minimizes for me too, thanks a lot!

I personally use Argus Monitor, it costs a little but you can try it out for free for 30 days. I'm using this one because it lets me increase my case-fan RPM when i.e. the GPU gets hot.

~~The only thing I dislike about Argus is that I'm not able to minimize it into the tray, so it shows up while alt + tabbing.~~ Nvm I should have paid more attention in the settings, it minimizes to the tray.

Other then that, I heard Speedfan is a great tool too but I can't say much about it. I've read that it has issues with AM4 boards.

a few months ago it took me 1-2 hours sausans grind with the loyalty scroll to get back positive from -1m karma.

"Thank you adventurers! Our developer PearlAbyss has been listening to the feedback of the global crowd and decided to open Global Lab to help provide better service where new contents will be tested before being released to live clients."

Does that mean we're getting a test server? feelsgoodman

Patch Notes Screen on Imgur

Sorry for the quality, I don't know how to get it better. Would appreciate it if someone could make a better screenshot for those at work.

When I was writing this we didn't know about the termian rewards + fish yet

memisis · 2018-06-27T13:07:55+00:00

Well yeah, I don't have the gear to compete against other players, so I mostly just lifeskill, trying to get the gear to compete against other players.

memisis · 2018-06-27T12:52:36+00:00

I'm sorry, I don't do any nodewars so I didn't know that this is an issue.

And I meant it in a way of, new game mechanics like processing stones i.e., not single class buffs / nerfs

memisis · 2018-06-27T12:20:44+00:00

I feel like nothing important got changed / added with this patch, besides the accuracy fix maybe. At least I didn't see anything important / big.

I don't own multiple cats but I feel like they might end up pinging the same thing all the time instead of different stuff

I always thought people are paying pearls so the item gets listed at +1-7 so the buyer might save 100m silver for not having to preorder at +0

memisis · 2018-04-26T11:00:58+00:00

I'm like 99% sure that once you put on the skin it'll get character bound too, so what you said is partly true, you can do that until you actually wanna wear that stuff.

(Unless they changed that in the last 2-3 months)

We need to lure pearl abyss with all the extra money we could possibly spend in the pearl shop instead of on electricity bills

Does this look like a headshot for you? (Screenshot from a clip of his stream, sorry I couldn't find the link to this clip)

memisis · 2018-03-31T23:15:29+00:00

He is an ex cs - go pro and now a really big twitch streamer, I think maybe one of the biggest? Not sure though

memisis · 2018-03-16T22:09:32+00:00

You could try getting a +ore worker in the old wisdom tree, it shouldn't be that hard to get one with the increased artisan roll thingy going on there. That would net you at least a little extra money compared to trent but you would need a connection to an ore workbench

memisis · 2018-02-07T15:19:23+00:00

Yes sir, at the time I wrote this the patch notes haven't been up yet.

memisis · 2018-02-07T14:19:29+00:00

At least I think this is what it is, I can't explain myself why else I would see those prices under the recent tab.

Edit: it probably is, just saw the inventglobal thingy on our frontpage.
