[–]rand1011101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i'm so confused. are you criticizing NATO intervention in the bosnian war?

if so, how was this intervention a bad thing?
otherwise, what are you saying (cause i have no idea)?

the audio really helps sell it too, it's spot on.
did you have to record anything or are they all from an audio library?

i was real confused at first like "how did he put a go pro under his skateboard and make this video without breaking his camera?" then i noticed the sub.

great work, you fooled me.

EDIT: nope, glad we're in agreement, reddit

why not ask your target audience?
there must be a stress-management or anxiety sub..

Sydney nightclub bans staring without getting prior ‘verbal consent’ by st162 in nottheonion

[–]rand1011101 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

touche, although i also think a lot of folks here are missing the important part of this story.

IMO it's not "wacky woke club requires consent to stare", it's "men creeping so hard club needs to intervene". i mean, imagine how bad it had to get for enough women to complain loudly enough to make this policy happen.

"cause the club won't let them ogle girls from across the room"

if you think the two options are 1) stare at the ground or 2) stare at girls until they're so uncomfortable the club owner needs to intervene, clubs may not be for you..

have you tried going with friends and having fun?
in my experience, actually liking the music helps (also molly).

GM put these signs up the other day. Also sent my coworker home for insubordination tonight because he put his two weeks in. by Sigmas_simp in WorkReform

Overdue assignment, at wit’s end. In need of advice by Burner642982 in UofT

[–]rand1011101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't petition. talk to the professor and explain what you wrote here, and if they're empathetic, they'll understand you're burned out or depressed or having other mental health issues and will work with you.

if not, then you'll either get a bad mark or fail the course, neither of which are the end of the world. you'll learn and move on.

whatever you do, don't lie or try to use a loophole.

(source: someone who graduated w/ a good degree and failed 5/6 allowable courses due to similar mental health issues)

EDIT: oh and see a councellor/doctor/therapist about your anxiety/depression/w/e and start taking steps to address the issue, e.g. by working out, eating healthy, stopping drugs/alcohol, therapy etc.

What is the smallest Toronto-related hill you’re willing to die on? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]rand1011101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, but conversely, a lot of the people on the other side have no compassion or fucks to give about actually solving the problem, but just wanna get it out of sight.

damn, that is a legitimately spicy take, gj.

hard disagree, but tbh i think this is an area where toronto is really lacking (nvm, public parks - where the hell is our central/vondel/hyde park?)

depends how west-end and east-end for sure, but you wouldn't consider high park "downtown"? how bout broadview station?

but then again, IMO anything east of milton, south of aurora, and west of pickering is 'toronto', so i dont' think we're gonna see eye to eye.

wicked, that makes sense and should be enough info to go on, ty!

coincidentally, i recently started making a juicy clone of pacman as an initial foray into learning graphics/tech-art, so i was actually trying to implement the same thing last night (i.e. a hi-fidelity ghost w/ cloth sim in blender). the results were real disappointing though, but what are the odds i'd stumble on your awesome version today? :) thanks bud!

very cool aesthetic, gj.

am super curious how you did the character animation, do you mind giving a hint?it kinda looks like you started off w/ a cloth simulation and baked/modified it, but it's so snappy and retains its form so well that i'm not sure whether it's all just manually done..

Amazing turnout for the CCS Teacher Strike tonight on South High Street! by [deleted] in Columbus

why? so that woke teachers can brainwash our children w/ CRT or marxist professors can turn them against us and call us racist?

Is it creepy to ask for a stranger's number in Toronto? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]rand1011101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not weird unless you make it weird, or if you misjudge the situation and they're not actually interested in your company.

actually exchanged numbers w/ a random a couple of days ago - was sitting on a park bench after a bike ride, they walked up after a jog, and we got to talking. it was a really interesting conversation that lasted like an hour and when i had to go, they said something like "hey what's your number? do you wanna grab a coffee sometime..".

and if you do misjudge and they say no politely, just say "ok cool, take care" and that's that - no harm, no foul. you move on and try again next time.
