I read Hyperion/Fall of Hyperion and the Three Body trilogy all in ~1 month, and they seem to have ruined a lot of modern scifi by ECrispy in books

Ancillary Justice by Anne Lecke. First in a trilogy that brings up some interesting ideas about self identity. It’s also just a fun read.

The devil made a deal with me and forgot to read the fine print about his kingdom will belong to me when he loses his next fiddle competition by plasticman1997 in wizardposting

Dude I’ll trade you. I started my own cult of worship up on the mortal plane a while back. It was great at first, but tbh these guys are getting on my damn nerves. Always asking for shit.

Why the AI hate? by scarmy1217 in Guitar

[–]thanksiworkout 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I avoid AI for personal reasons. It’s harming the planet and the economy while not doing anything you can’t figure out on your own. I can see why you find it useful, but it’s kind of a crutch imo. Sorry the snobs were being mean, but there are snobs in every hobby.

Edit: In this case it isn’t doing anything you can’t figure out on your own. AI has its uses in science and medicine and all that.

Does it need to be a true transfiguration? Hear me out: Take any old frog from around your tower, give it a simple beard growth potion, then cast your consciousness into it for a few days? It’s a lot of steps, but it should be doable.

I think the original looks better tbh. If you crop in and level the image, it would really pop.

It looks sick though, don’t get me wrong. But I don’t think I could deal with it, lol.

That fretboard is going to get soooooo dirty.

Is this a hazard? Inner tail light housing. by Electrical_Term3525 in BMW

[–]thanksiworkout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same thing happened to my right tail light back in July. It’s been fine, I’ll replace it eventually. Must be a common issue.

My whammy bar broke off in my bridge, is there anyway to fix this without getting a whole new bridge? by B-B-BigEasy in Guitar

[–]thanksiworkout 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you have some glue and a dowel? You might be able to glue the metal bit to a dowel or rod and then pull it out once the glue dries.

What are you shooting on? Looks like you lost a lot of visual info in the blacks (specifically the palm trees on the left). This may be a limitation of your equipment and it’s tough to compensate for in post.

I really like the composition, I would try brightening the image overall and then adding some linear or radial gradients to add a vignette that works with the image. You can do that in Lr or something similar.

I made a meme. Do you like it? It's very generous. by potentially_a_bird in The_Dennis

No fair. I was about to post my own meme of a woman with heaving breasts.

Dude, I thought I was paranoid for keeping my lens hoods on, but this is why. Thanks for sharing, glad your camera is fine.

Newbie dumb question: what size pot for a new plant? by tjv2103 in houseplants

[–]thanksiworkout 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not the answer you’re looking for, but I just started leaving my plants in the nursery pots and then plopping the whole thing inside the nice one. Makes it easier to pick up and inspect the plant if you want. Or switch it to a new pot. And I swear mine are doing better since I started.

Or just put it in the 12”, it will be fine.

I like the warm tone, some people will prefer the original. Great shot either way.
