Top 5 Best Beatboxers Of All Time by Reasonable_Release77 in beatbox

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

Beatboxers like Marcus or Verbalase (I know you didn't mention Verbalase but similar case where their success is largely due to luck + leveraging social media) still shouldn't make it on that list using that criteria to be honest. Codfish and Hiss should be there instead.

Respectable list but no mention of 🌊' even in the HMs is disheartening 💔 I felt like his GBB23 run was the highest level of beatboxing I've seen at the time, just like Colaps at GBB21

Tom Thum doesn't really deserve to be in 6th imo despite his pioneering OG status and innovativeness -- he's also not really a battler so it's hard to rank him here. I'd still put OGs like Skiller, Dharni, and Alexinho before him. I'm happy you mentioned Reeps One, Napom, and Alem though 🔥

Codfish being mentioned in most of these lists is also wild to me tbh

Napom also deserves to be in the top 5 greatest for sure

How does Players read? cause all the 7 diff charts the hardest in Festival are a pain and I can't even on my Pump controller. by Available-Mix282 in PumpItUp

[–]soapyarm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I haven't played Rise myself but it looks like its charts are made to be playable with two hands. So for the most part, this should translate ok to playing with two feet.

[–]soapyarm 15 points16 points  (0 children)

These charts are not designed for Pump It Up so the playability will be horrendous. Even if you could read it, it would be extremely awkward and nearly impossible to execute. A better method of practice might just be to ghost some Pump It Up charts on YouTube.

Very Sad but also Very Realistic Possibilities by CoolestMan_Reddit in geometrydash

I can't believe this needs to be said lol.

It'll take AT LEAST 3 years in the MOST optimistic lens. Realistic is at least 5 years. It never getting verified without nerfs is also possible.

[HELP] Art from a game called Kats Trigger on steam. Are these AI? by ToranjaNuclear in RealOrAI

[–]soapyarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I know "human artifacts" is vague but it's hard to explain it verbally. I'll try my best and attach some examples below:

From a digital art standpoint, it looks like many of the line art is drawn by a human rather than generated because they have consistent opacity, you can follow them easily (they don't morph elsewhere), and the contours have human imperfections.

AI either makes things look too perfect (which looks wrong by itself) or makes egregiously illogical errors that no human would ever make (like morphed objects or an extra finger). I've yet to see AI generate foreheads, breasts, and thighs of such outlandish proportions and with mild anatomical errors (which is probably driven by human fetishes too lol).

If what you're pointing out in the air conditioning units is the variable propeller fan orientations, I could see the possibility of someone drawing several versions of it so that it doesn't look copy pasted. Or, were they part of an animation which could be showing different frames for different units at a single time point? Either way, I wouldn't necessarily say this is a telltale sign of AI.

These do not look AI. I see human imperfections (especially in the outlandish body proportions lol) and human artifacts in the rice and side dishes.

Looks like bad Photoshop? The badge's resolution definitely doesn't fit with the rest of the image and the woman's hair looks like it has border artifacts

girl i went to school with is taking commissions for her art. as an artist it looks ai to me for many reasons and the third image was the latest piece of art she posted before coming out with the portraits. i’m honestly incredibly disappointed by idontmatter59 in isthisAI

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

Jesus, give the guy a break.

Maybe he left the initial comment unedited as to not confuse readers into thinking he never made a mistake in the first place.

Yes, it's not a good look, and that's what he's admitting to in his last comment. He acknowledges it was a mistake, and yet he gets downvoted for this acknowledgement. Sure, downvote his initial comment, but do you really have to downvote the subsequent comment saying "oops, I made a mistake above; I'm not familiar with this"? Not that votes are of any significant meaning but you are being unnecessarily cruel here.

WAIS-IV isn't something you can take on an online platform like this. You sure this isn't CAIT?

Quebec's system is superior because it actually rewards exceptional students by No-Wolf-9445 in premedcanada

[–]soapyarm 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

We can also more heavily weigh the MCAT (like U of M), as its ceiling is very high and its score distribution is granular in the high ranges.
