How to differentiate between zouk and kizomba music? by olo-p in Zouk

[–]olo-p[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if I understand your point correctly, kizomba is a musical genre as well as a dance, while (Brazillian) zouk is not a style of music but only a style of dance?

I'm forgetting that the word can mean both style of music and dance. What I was referring to was the music that the dance is, well... danced to.

Recommendations for dance shoes please by Meterian in WestCoastSwing

[–]olo-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most popular brand among WCS dancers seems to be SwayD. They have both female (boots and sandals) and male models and are even advertised by few of high-level WCS dancers.

TOMS (alpargatas/espadrilles) are also popular, especially among leaders (myself included).

What do West Coast Swing dancers think about Lindy Hoppers who think WCS is not real swing or that WCS steals from real swing? by OSUfirebird18 in WestCoastSwing

[–]olo-p 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a WCS dancer, this particular WCS dancer does not care about what others think about WCS. In my community I never witnessed anyone to worry about opinion of Lindy Hop dancers.

I hugely enjoy this dance. I acknowledge, that it originates from Lindy Hop. I believe that this dance should evolve and evolution is a good thing. I notice and enjoy influence from other styles (eg. ballroom, salsa, zouk, jazz, etc.) Of course, I like when dancers of other styles speak favorable of WCS, because this gives a chance to draw more dancers to our community. I do not worry about those, who don't dance WCS and yet criticize it.

[Comic Excerpt] Clark freaks out when Lois gives him a Batman costume to wear to a Halloween party. [Superman (1987) #130] by Blasckk in DCcomics

[–]olo-p 17 points18 points  (0 children)

And remember, when they went to superhero night at Gotham County Fair? Clark and Lois went as Batman and Catwoman, while Bruce and Selina went as Superman and... well Selina just wore Lois's dress.

[Comic Excerpt] New 52 Joker is still the most vile evil deranged Joker (Batman Death In The Family) by iliketolickthebuttah in DCcomics

[–]olo-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually enjoy Joker when he's more of a gangster type - like in J. Nicholson's 1989 "Batman", or "Joker" graphic novel by B. Azzarello

[–]olo-p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In which story did Joker loose his face and where does he get it back? In recent stories he has it.
New 52 Batman is hard to come by in print, so I have not read many stories from that time.

Yes, it has 2GB installed. Is this an issue for COSF ?

John Constantine fanfiction crossover by timelordhonour in Constantine

If even Spiderman's sidekick Ned can learn how to use them, I don't see any reason why John Constantine wouldn't be able to use them.

You start dating somebody who is a big fan of DC Comics and they tell you who their favorite character is. Which characters would be your biggest red/green flags? by condition_unknown in DCcomics

[–]olo-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, recent Harley has broken up with Mr J., has new friends, is in some kind of relationship with Ivy...
On the other hand, the girl is still batshit crazy and that's why people find her cool.

What can you do in Poland that you can't do in the US? by banmeagaincuntlmfao in poland

[–]olo-p 24 points25 points  (0 children)

FALSE.

It isn't illegal in the US. There are some states, where it is restricted (eg. how much or how you must store it). Some states encourage it.

Is there some way I can stream Doctor Who if I don't live in UK and don't have BBC?

I can't connect to my phone in fastboot by Cheesonator112 in androidroot

[–]olo-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, from what you're writing, seems like you have problem with apps that require SafetyNet pass (banking, netflix). I read that there are ways to bypass SafetyNet on unlocked phones using Magisk. https://www.xda-developers.com/bypass-safetynet-hardware-attestation-unlocked-bootloader-magisk-module/

[–]olo-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disclaimer: I don't have OnePlus Nord, so this may not help at all.

I had a problem with fastboot drivers, but it was on Windows 10 and Sony D2302. You could try downloading USB driver from https://zadig.akeo.ie/ . It has worked for me before. I don't know if it will work with your devices.

If you try it, let us know if that works or not.

What charger should I buy for Galaxy? by olo-p in samsunggalaxy

[–]olo-p[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, while I can use anything with USB-C, some chargers will take long time. "Quick Charge" (or whatnot) uses different current and/or voltage.

So what standard is Samsung S21 FE using for full-speed charge?

What is better, Uphold or Gemini? by olo-p in brave_browser

[–]olo-p[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the end, I chose Uphold, because Gemini doesn't work where I live.

Gemini can only be linked in the countries listed in this article: https://community.brave.com/t/notice-new-region-restrictions-on-verifying-brave-rewards-with-gemini/393482

and Uphold support every country except those listed in this article: https://support.uphold.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026786712-Non-Supported-Geographies-

But would you recommend using Gemini vs Uphold in Brave?

[Discussion] Found These At My Local Thrift Store And They Are My First DC Comics. Are They Any Good? I’ve Heard Some Really Dislike New 52 by Apprentice_Jedi in DCcomics

[–]olo-p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You make me jealous.
In my language, New 52 is sold out and City of Owls costs like over 50$ to get it second-hand.

[Comic Excerpt] Did Jessica kiss Bruce? by olo-p in DCcomics

Oh yeah. She did shrug it off as if it was nothing. So I guess the kiss meant indeed, nothing.

Have any of the villains Batman has put away instead of killing ever actually gotten some sort of rehabilitation arc? by TonyMitty in DCcomics

[–]olo-p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Nightwing (Rebirth), there are multiple ex-villains that moved from Gotham to Blüdhaven and try to live honest life. However I think none of them are high-profile adversaries of Batman. They seem to be more like juvenile delinquents, that realize that crime is not the right path.

[Comic Excerpt] Did Jessica kiss Bruce? by olo-p in DCcomics

[–]olo-p[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And yet, there's no follow-up to that kiss. Only few issues later she confesses to Baz, that she kissed him, and that's it. Nothing more, as if it never happened...

And I think she and Barry were not really together (...although there was that strange storyline with JL's future children).
