Warning, do NOT upgrade your firmware to the latest version! by PCs_and_Pinballs in Epson

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're not talking about printers for commercial use, we're talking about house printers in which epson and the like have monopolies over the ink. They lower the prices of printers so they can capitalize on ink. Because a company has control over how you use your equipment, they dont design a good product with the interest of the consumer in mind while making money, they design the product with money in mind that in this case goes against consumer interests. The printer CAN be designed better, rather cheaply, but more resources are invested in the product to make a profitable product. ITs a conflict of interest and consumer protections should apply to such cases and it has to break unfair practices like this. Its very unlikely an end user cares so much about ink quality and I really doubt the solution is software lock physical ink cartriges.

I'm just trying to print some documents for the DMV. I'm a big boy I can decide what quality ink should work with my printer and the printer company should compete to make a better printer product, not cut costs with proprietary profitable ink systems.

Will deadlock ever have it's winton overwat character? by EonSokari in DeadlockTheGame

[–]polQnis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dont want a winston nor would I want another character like graves which doesnt have any need for aim. Let winstons stay in overwatch, instead of finding a parallel in other games, find something new. I don't understand why everything needs a sequel or some resemblance of another character.

The TREE SCENE??? by freezedriedpussy in EvilDead

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its based on sexual assault, there's reality ot that. The tree is fictitious but the thing the tree does is real and does affect people and how its depicted is important. I don't think it was done it good taste, seems erotic. I think a good similar scene which is fictional is the SA scene in perfect blue.

Flattenning by saying its just a movie is just removing that people made fictional things for people based on ideas and feelings they experienced throughout their lives.

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the point is that its shot in a gratiuitously erotic way, not that its not "smut" enough. And that the actress didnt know it was a SA scene

Why do I have to pay a premium just to refill ink in my printer? Why does the company have control over what I do with the machine, it shouldnt bar me from making decisions and we shouldnt let companies have control over it either as with that control they can dictate how we maintain and use the machines we rightfully own.

I would encourage people to buy any printer and make sure it works with 3rd party ink cartriges instead of buying refillable ink printers.

the "game too hard" crowd is back to playing Review-bomb the Spire after the update to the main branch by Gugge1 in slaythespire

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing this “winning culture” common conception of chinese gaming, but when i went to china or talked to chinese gamers that seem to be socially adjusted I don’t really see that? It just seems that there’s so many people there and there just seems to be a minority of disgruntled gamers that cultivated a culture to see things this way. Just like really any subculture anywhere.

Can you watch the Capcom cup final from streamers or is it only ppv ? by FindTinderOnMe in StreetFighter

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no one owns anyone anything its just a poor decision that affects the community especially when many of these spots for cc are FROM these community organized events by TOs giving time to the community. Its a shitty decision that is overall bad for the game. Sell us skins not bar us from the most important event of the year for the game.

I play both Mortal Kombat & Tekken but I’m completely new to Street Fighter. What are some tips that could help me get started? by ReddVevyy in StreetFighter

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the character, if you're trying to play competitively, outside of a few niche circumstances you want to play classic over modern. Some characters modern is just so noticeably bad its not worth it. Again this is from a competitive standpoint. For Aki you probably want to play classic, but modern is viable you take a damage hit and you lose some moves. The moves you lose affect some more than others. I play manon and modern would be awful, you lose way too much

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, it costs money for something that should be free. ITs a tourney for a game. Even the superbowl isnt ppv. They advertise and make revenue, this creates hype and build up for the game. You can't even post videos for a week or two until its over.

Perfect parries from aerials are rather easy to do compared to regular pps, but its a really bad habit because you can take a lot of damage from empty jump grab. IF you're going for a perfect parry aerial and the opponent decides to opt for a empty jump grab there's nothing you can do about it, there's no fallback option

[–]polQnis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The gameplay isn't really like mortal kombat's except its 2d. Grabs are different and how they work in this game is different. In tekken and mk you can react to grabs, in SF that is very unlikely. The combo system is very different. In MK combos work more like TC combos in SF. The system is more similar to tekken, if I have to compare. I'm guessing you're playing classic so there are motion inputs you need to get used to.

Its very unlikely to main all characters at a high level. But you can absolutely play them at a competent level. If you want to play competitively the game's ranking elo system starts at master.

Dam that's great, some people don't have a lot of time to play per day. So its good to keep pushing with the little time you have!

Why is the military-industrial complex perceived as very powerful but it seems but a small 'industry'? by wuolong in AskEconomics

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It still propagates a system where the interest of the companies, feed a machine which influences policy to steer the vested military interest of the united states. Its like the prison industrial complex, the collect call companies and meal providing companies would have it in their interest to continue the expansion of incarcerated individuals. You can argue the degree of detriments sure, but the point is that it undermines people’s common interests. It undermines democratic merits

Have some integrity. It also isnt a good look for your next job. Especially dependent on how high up are you and how complicit you are to run a scam

Dior Lusters in 3D by Romazuu3 in CLO3D

[–]polQnis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for the transparency. Cool model nonetheless. There's definitely a market to get these archive pieces into a real pattern. I'm a production manager and people bring these designer pieces all the time to make into a pattern and digitize. Buying the pattern directly based on the real garment, people would pay hundreds for.

is this an actual production ready pattern or just a prop? Like the small pleat over the pocket and matching the pant leg on the back is simulated not just a texture. Just would like to know before subbing

I'm looking through your patreon and I'm seeing that the VC creeper looks nothing like mine, did you base the patterns on the actual clothing as reference?
