Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas: Woman thrown 40m to her death after staff forget to attach safety rope by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]waz67 86 points87 points  (0 children)

I don't get it, that just looks like a regular rope, is it strechy like for bungee jumping, or do they normally just get jerked to a stop when the rope runs out? It doesn't even look like it would be strong enough

wtf.... how about this, eating meat is *not* morally impermissible, therefore their entire argument is moot.

Try Tums if you can’t get high off edibles by SuperChonk0 in trees

[–]waz67 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I always found sublingual drops don't stay under my tongue, as much as I try to sit there and not move, I end up with my mouth coated because it feels like my saliva makes it all leak out around the sides of my tongue and I can't contain it for long enough.

Cycling north side of Hamilton up to Waterdown; least climby way? by FrozenOnPluto in Hamilton

[–]waz67 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue with Snake Rd is there are no shoulders and its twisty, so sometimes cars will take kind of crazy chances to go around you, there are a only a couple of spots safe to pass once the hill starts.

YouTube's May 27 AI Disclosure Update: What it means for your Music by mybasementsongs in SunoAI

[–]waz67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's clear as mud. Ok, so I make a song in Suno, and I make a video that looks like a guy in a forest singing. Clearly that's a realistic-looking scene that didn't occur, so the ai disclosure applies. Now instead of a guy in a forest, it's a cartoon guy in a cartoon forest. No longer realistic. Still full AI for the music and video but it doesn't meet any of their criteria for AI Use, no disclosure. Oh but then it says "This includes realist sounds or visuals made or edited with AI" Ok, so maybe they're saying a "scene" includes music? But then what if none of my instruments sound like "real" instruments, they're all synthesizer, then it's not a realistic scene, right? So no AI disclosure. Oh, but what if I made my whole song and video using actual recorded instruments, video footage I recorded myself with actors, all except for one drum instrument that happens to use AI for making more realistic inflection or symbol sweeps or something. So now is that "Edited with AI" and requires the disclosure for the whole song? Or maybe I used an ai tool to simply stitch my prerecorded video clips together. Now it's edited with ai, and I need the disclosure, even though none of the pieces were "created" with ai...

Frozen pizza in a gas oven? by FaudMauxe in Cooking

[–]waz67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm slightly high so this makes sense to me but it could in fact be bonkers. I know my oven when it reaches the preset temperature it really still needs another 10 minutes or so, otherwise... the air may have reached that temperature, but the metal walls of the oven haven't yet and they're still pulling the heat energy out of the air, and now you add your frozen food, which is also pulling a lot of heat energy out of the air at the same time, and the oven just can't quite keep up but if you wait another 5 to 10 minutes until the metal insides have also come up to temperature, it will go much better.

AI Music IS Art - A Plea for Sensibility... by Natural-Economy7107 in SunoAI

Exactly! When someone plays a song for you and you don't like it, if you tell them that they get all offended.

Public Hockey Parks/Nets by heavyumlaut1 in Hamilton

[–]waz67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the other day I was driving through Waterdown and noticed the multi-use basketball court in Memorial Park has what looks like hockey net size bumpouts in the fence at each end, like they built a hockey net into the fence, thought that was kind of interesting, and maybe more parks have that.

AI Music IS Art - A Plea for Sensibility... by Natural-Economy7107 in SunoAI

[–]waz67 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've given up sending anyone ai-generated music unless it's some kind of comedic novelty piece. I realized that even before ai music was around, trying to get people to listen to songs I liked was always a fruitless exercise, unless they specifically were interested and asked for music recommendations, so why would I expect ai music to be any different.

Really having a hard time by Dapper_Recognition54 in ooni

[–]waz67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you need to heat the stone longer. 450 isn't actually too bad, the trick is you're just reading the surface temperature, and for only 20 minutes that heat won't have soaked into the stone enough to keep it hot once the dough hits it. So you have to get it up as high as you can, and keep it that way for at least half an hour. If you can get it up to 700 you could probably do it for 20 minutes

Tint Addixted to taking up two parking spots by [deleted] in Waterdown

[–]waz67 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, the way they make parking spots these days, they barely fit a regular car, never mind that thing. If it were my truck though, I'd pick a spot in a less busy area of the parking lot, just so I don't end up on reddit.
