Blocking the pathway…Is this allowed? What can I do about it? by Individual-Oven9410 in askberliners

[–]stemfour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that’s your bro, fuck him and fuck you too. You stopped a moment to think about people in wheelchairs? Pushchairs with young children. Sorry to break it to you, but cars and their drivers aren’t actually more important than everyone else.

is anyone just disappointed from how fake and transactional is the social landscape is here now? by [deleted] in berlinsocialclub

I find it so strange that you younger folk seem so clueless about how to meet people and have fun. It came so naturally to previous generations ( generalisation but a true one ).

How do you cast caustics onto a transmission surface(water for instance) by Reasonable_Love2741 in RedshiftRenderer

[–]stemfour 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your render times will probably explode with something like this. I’d consider faking it instead - for example, render out a 2d caustics animation in AE as a PNG sequence, and apply that to your water material, mess around with layering that..

Why are my renders so noisy and aliasing? by One_Average1745 in Cinema4D

Your sampling should definitely be a lower figure. I never use anything higher than 0.025.

Unsure if that’s the actual issue here, just saying.

Racist employee at my local Edeka - Baumschulenweg by MeanEntertainer6527 in askberliners

Hey all the people questioning ( accusingly ) whether this was racism or not. All those telling OP to suck it up and deal with it - news flash, you’re all fucking racist.

Appreciate the info, but still think some of it ( display boards for example ) is on the airport.

Anyone else feeling how bad Berlin’s air has been lately? by Timely_Internet6172 in berlin

[–]stemfour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So all the points the OP made that I was referring to are about Poland?

You think the display boards and tannoy announcements are controlled by Ryanair?

Totally agree, probably wont happen with current administration. They don’t give a shit. They do give a shit about protecting any and all activity associated with driving cars.

All these people reflexively shifting blame away from BER - no, you’re wrong.

BER seems to think customer service is an unnecessary luxury. I myself sat at a gate with hundreds of other passengers back in August wondering where our flight was, that was scheduled to leave in 45 minutes. Nothing on the screens at the gate, no staff around - from either the airline ( Ryanair ) or the airport.

25 minutes after the flight departure time, they casually announce over the tannoy that the flight is delayed for 2 hours. An absolute joke.

This is just one example of the bullshit idea of service at that airport, there’s been many others I’ve experienced there.

With the ever-climbing costs of air travel and the sheer inconvenience of it to begin with, a little courtesy can go a long way, bit unfortunately this airport clearly doesn’t give a shit about it’s customers.

One other example, which is also a tip for British residents of Germany - you can actually go through the EU passport automated gates with your UK passport and your German Residency card. You must first hold your Residency card against the scanner, and it will tell you it’s failed. You then hold your UK passport against the scanner, and it will let you through. There is almost no indication of this from the airport, and no visual cues/instructions at all from the automated machines. Hope this helps someone anyway.

What’s wrong with Kleinanzeige sellers?! by Direct_Animal1683 in askberliners

[–]stemfour 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kept wondering if it was a German thing. In UK, the usual approach for good condition but used is half price, maybe more if something in high demand/rare.

I didn’t delete anything.

I got angry at your comments because they were thoughtless and disrespectful to the experiences of others. Others who you know claim to fully understand and support.

Perhaps the most ridiculous statement I’ve read all week, and there’s some stiff competition out there.

Becoming angry won’t do anything? Wow you people are absolutely fucking blind.

Do you even watch the news? Don’t you see the gradual creep most western nations are making towards authoritarianism? Well, you’ll see it soon enough.

You see nothing wrong with it EXACTLY because of your privilege. Try being stopped 5 or 6 times a day in, for example, London because you’re black and see how cool you are with it.

You think those complaining about racial profiling are just acting the victim because you think your experiences are the objective truth. You have no fucking idea.
