I don't normally talk about people like this, but I can't get over how fucking stupid people are People applying for a research-heavy job that straight up lists your ability to research information and your attention to detail as requirements for the job just open the application page, click the first button they see without following directions, then send an email to complain that it's not working even though they're clicking something that's not for them and not noticing the account they registered to apply is on a third party site, despite it being said in literally the first sentence on the page there are directions to navigate them where to go and how to apply in a very brief chunk of text less that one page long in bulleted point format they don't read any of it they just hit LOG IN as soon as they reach the landing page with session duration of under 20 seconds (thanks google analytics), read nothing, then spend ten minutes in an email to complain that's meant to be a communication channel for customers, not applicants then the literal president of the company gets the emails, responds to these idiots telling them exactly what they've done wrong, and they just ignore it and respond with "i can't log in. this is a pain in the ass already!!"
i swear to christ i am going to take these people and put them on a submarine and make them disappear
>>427287 like several hundred people applying and this one person who won't take ten minutes to read and navigate the instructions to apply for a job that you desperately want (which is actually only like two minutes of content, you read it) want the president of the company to take an hour plus out of his day to help you and they won't take the 15 seconds to read the one-line response that says that they're trying to log into the wrong website i'm beyond frustrated with it. i'm livid even when they meet none of the qualifications, they still want other people to do the work of applying for them i fucking hate it i want them to fucking die

First of all, the first session should generally include the parent. Whether the child wants to be there or not doesn't matter because they're not the client and I'm providing services to the client. Second, the first time I see someone, I have to discuss the informed consent to treatment as well as numerous confidentiality laws and provisions as well discuss the fact that I'm in training and who my supervisor is and how they can be contacted. So I have to have the adult present for that because they're the person giving consent.

underneath the quite intact wall plug is the covering thing ment to be on it because that is currently in the hole, I can't do jackshit to it really I'd have to remove it and then block it I am thinking of just adding some small wooden block or such under the hole and then fashioning a slideable cover for it well two rather one with filter for dust and one that blocks it completely

Anno
>>427627 The fact that it does not have discontinued development like the classic Paint app, and is more likely to return on future iterations of Windows OS.
FormerRei@mobile
>>427631 Those aren't real advantages. Paint really doesn't need to be updated. Sometimed programs reach a certain point in their development that they don't need any new features.
Anno
>>427631 Just get paint.net. It's free, faster, and has been updated continuously for like 10 years or some shit. It also has a much more computer friendly GUI, and all of the features of paint 3D, as far as I know.
Anno
>>427633 That's fine; I'm not arguing it's some objectively superior to all other competitors image editing app. My point isn't -point is that it isn't just "Paint for tablets" since it has for all intents and purposes been supplied by Microsoft as a replacement for their previous Paint app. All I'm saying is that for Microsoft OS machines, it's the new Paint.

Anno
>>427634 It's figuratively paint for tablets not literally, I guess.
Then there was that weird demon thing hmm Ajin? that seemed interesting, but all the characters looked so alien the shading was just so bad, they all looked weird in every shot
Houseki no Kuni was a 3D CGI show I would argue was made even better by the fact that it was done in 3D CGI. They really put some of the effects they could work with in 3D CGI to their best to establish an alienity and weirdness to the characters. And the show at times actually had some astondingly good cinematography.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Is not like you can't make a good 3d cgi show, but most of the time they seem to do it to cut corners or shit or end up cutting corner or just accidentally make it bad, I guess maybe CGI in that regard isn't used that much in the anime industry. Weird considering how much they prop that into movies and games, but I guess those have bigger budgets.
FormerRei@mobile
>>427653 CGI isn't neccesarily bad, but it allows for very Err is conducive towards very lazy work just because of how different a work flow it is. In the case of Berserk there were many scenes with large amounts of clipping, in part because many of the models were just animated once then copied and pasted in a row (the skeletons for example).
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I for one question, why did they animate all the vechiles in say Yuru camp with cgi you istantly spot when the transition happens
Anno
Probably for the same reasons a lot of vehicles in anime get done in 3D CGI. Machinery on that scale can be an insane workload to deal with, especially for time-cramped animation teams. When you draw it by hand I mean. Having someone create a 3D model can drastically reduce effort.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Corner cutting indeed but still, it always looks bad
some monster/horrorish show would do well by having all the enemies be cgi monsters would further make them feel creepy and odd
Anno
can't blame an underfunded industry for cutting corners
Anno
there was that one anime about the crystal girls that one was pretty cool they made cgi look cool
Anno
>>427662 Houseki no Kuni. I've been talking about it a bit already. It was a show that really used the aspects of 3D CGI to benefit the show.
Anno
remember the cgi rendition of appleseed that was pretty disgusting
>>427660 I don't think it always looks bad. It's definitely noticeable when it looks bad, but a lot of shows can seam the object into the environment.
Anno
>>427663 oh yeah it was a good example of how to use CGI to your advantage i think the way sidonia used it was pretty good too it looks bad zoomed too far in but from a distance that show looked really cool
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>427666 Even if the object is done well, you just always notice it instantly when it is applied to a 2d drawn background
Anno
we should watch treasure planet
FormerRei@mobile
>>427668 I can guarantee that you don't always notice. There are ways of making stuff like that blend in much better, they just aren't used that often because its time consuming.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
WEll CGi in anime usually breaks cause they combine 2d and 3d a real bad instance was that ronja robber's daughter anime from a while ago

Anno
I don't think so. I do remember the 3D CGI anime set in the Sengoku era where some highschooler who's a dead ringer for Oda Nobunaga gets dropped into the time period and ends up becoming Nobunaga while the actual one runs away from his duties. That was a really fun series.
Berserk really irritated me because I love the manga, but the cg was just so bad. Also they completely skipped a ton of stuff. And >>427688 I'm sure it is, but it will still look bad, it just won't have as many overt poorly animated parts.
Anno
>>427687 try the bluray version it's fixed quite a bit
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Yeah, but when the original work is a stylished hand drawn work, and they make a 3dcgi adaption of it it just doesn't feel the same.

Maria
>>427802 Huh. I was gonna ask what sort of entity would be paying money to transcribe Alex Jones
Anno
well im not going to disclose my clients for obvious reasons but basically anyone that would want to use excerpts from that show to satire or parody on their show, which the news media is ripe with i'm sure you can think of several satirical news programs without even trying or even ones that aren't satirical yes, most other news stations have already had the same content transcribed previously, but since each company pays for that, they're not keen on making it a public asset so now other companies that want to peruse the transcripts to know what's usable segments for video editing and also which are quotable segments will just shell out the money to have it freshly transcribed it's but a drop in the bucket compared to paying a production crew, air time, and host/band for the programming duration
Anno
it's pretty spooky to be watching murder documentaries and have my cat walk over my -- what's it called, the little multi-outlets that you plug into an outlet to have more outlets and they have a bright blue light to tell if they're on and off -- that thing, and cast a shadow that slowly moves across the room just to jump on my bed and coo at me >>427844 who calls them that that sounds like a term somebody from canadia would use

I work with paper a lot and I have delicate skin. I am resistant to bashing weapons and weak to slashing weapons.
>>427852 The technical term is bludgeoning. I'm still a bit surprised that you got a papercut in the web of your fingers though. That requires a very moe level of clumsiness.
Anno
>>427852 maybe if you weren't working with so much complexity >>427853 i still think synthetic is a better term artifice by definition is closer to 'fake' than 'manufacured'

>>427855 I was pulling papers out of a manilla folder and one of the papers was snagged on a paperclip so I pulled hard and it went right between the fingers on my left hand.
>>427863 have you considered working gloves i use them for typing because my fingers lose a lot of circulation and get really cold you still get a lot of tactile definition and they're not as clammy or allergenic as latex gloves
Yuu
>>427871 It would be a little weird for me to wear gloves since no one else does. Avoiding papercuts would be nice though.
FormerRei@mobile
>>427874 What about those little rubber things you put on your finger tips?
Anno
>>427874 if they work it's not weird! i've always had sensitive hands things like writing on paper in school in cold weather gave me a lot of needly-tinglies when i was younger nowadays typing makes my fingers stiff and tingly when it's cold you're even more north than me so i'm sure you get problems like that, and papercuts, and the feeling of paper on skin is generally unpleasant anyway >>427879 what in the heck is eccentric about wearin gloves gloves are a thing that are commercially viable which means they have a substantial market which i think completely negates the social concept of being eccentric
Yuu
That would save me from some papercuts but only on my fingertips.
>>427878 I think it's still probably weird! Wearing gloves is kind of eccentric.
FormerRei@mobile
>>427879 Yeah, that's generally where people get papercuts. Since you know, people tend to grab paper with their finger tips.

>>428344 elevating people to sainthood always confused me it feels like complete idolatry
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>428346 cause it is that, atleast to me. even in orthodox chuch where they aren't that prominent as in catholic church, they still are "prayed upon" as I guess references like you pray to a saint and that saint takes your issues to god or something it still elevates some people way above others and in my opinion kinda twists the message of the whole faith
Anno
I mean the Catholic/Christian belief has been doing it since all the way back to Jesus, so it's not like there isn't precedence for it.
Kirara 🚗
From my point of view, Jesus seems like idolatry, but I understand the argument for it not being idolatry if you look at it from the Christian perspective, but it's still weird to me to see saints get elevated like that.
well that was one of the main thesises of Luther anyhow. I also don't think why non catholics think pope is in anyhow relevant aside from being the head of the largest branch of christianity
Kirara 🚗
>Elect saints to be representatives to go represent your interests to God this could be a funny cartoon or movie
Anno
>>428350 >I also don't think why non catholics think pope is in anyhow relevant aside from being the head of the largest branch of christianity You say that as if it's nothing to sneeze at. His role as a moral leader is extremely important, even if I eschew any concept of him being a god's voice on Earth or whatever.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>428352 YEah but if you aren't a catholic his words don't bear any weight on you particularly it is like saying the head of coptic church should be listened to or the head of the orthodox church sure you can listen tot hem, but they are just that heads of other churches In my opinion don't really pay heed to any head of church that much, they in the end are just heads of institutions
Anno
They don't bear any weight on me directly, but they bear weight on the...I don't even know how many millions of Catholics there are out there, which will in turn shape the tone of conversation around me because you can't fucking escape the Catholic Church. So the means to which the pope directs the Catholic identity is relevant to me. Human social circles aren't isolated things that have no impact on each other. Anything a sufficiently influential relative stranger to me does will impact my life, and therefore I have some benefit to paying attention to what they're saying.
>>428354 I dunno the history of my church starts with "Hey pope, I give you the finger and rob your churches to pay back my debts to the Hansa union, also FUCK YOUUUUUUUU"

>>428357 I don't see how this is contradictory to what I'm saying. I'm having a hard time picturing how it's even relevant.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
It is relevant on "we don't give a fuck what the pope says and do our own thing"
Anno
Yeah, and let me guess, there are now ZERO CATHOLICS WHATSOEVER in Sweden now.
>>428369 Again, I don't see how it's contradictory to what I'm saying. Catholics are everywhere in the world, and if you think they have no impact whatsoever on the social scape of your country, you're narrowminded as fuck.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
less than jews
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>428368 Yes but they don't have any bearing on the future of our church or our nation as we have complete separation of church and state the only moments our church has meetings that might bear any change are the ecumenical gatherings, but at those pope is just "an influential dude" his words or ideas don't bear any extra weight >>428372 well that is the simple truth of the matter here
Anno
>>428351 it basically follows the same path as political representatives with all the weaseling and corrupt influence that'd be fun
Anno
>>428370 Yeah man you're narrowminded as fuck. Good luck with that.

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But I still say as a christian, you shouldn't really listen to the pope as a religious figure, unless you are a catholic sure he is influential like say president of USA or any such large and powerful nation but to look upon him for guidance in life nah better figures for that, especially if youi aren't catholic

I've been watching Critical Role, a web series about a bunch of voice actors for games, cartoons, dubbing, etc., getting together to play DnD. They started up their new campaign with the new year, so I've just jumped on that since it means I don't have to watch a hundred episodes of 3-4 hour-long content. Some of the things that have happened are just sheer amazing.
They were in a battle with a manticore, and one of their party members had been paralyzed to the ground by an ally of it, and was about to likely take three free crit strikes because of it. So another character, playing this scrawny goblin rogue, ran over to the manticore's nest which held the manticore's pup, and just fucking SLAUGHTERED the baby. Which resulted in the manticore reasonably freaking the fuck out and diving straight at the goblin, effectively saving the paralyzed character's life. It's unknown if it was intentional or not, but that ended up being a saving move, since the paralyzed guy later got his saving throw, and went on to heal the party's unconscious cleric, who would then heal the understandably unconscious goblin rogue.

>>428436 it's so weird that so many companies are rallying against private servers
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>428439 cause LIVE SERVICES are now a thing and will keep the players as payers
Kirara 🚗
yeah but for a game in which the multiplayer services have been discontinued, you should be able to hjave a private server or something
FormerRei@mobile
Yeah it's a pain in the ass

>>428433 I predicted a bunch of plot twists once and my dm got super pissed because he genuinely thought I had read his notes secretly while he wasn't looking.
FormerRei@mobile
It was really really stupid tropey stuff that was easy to predict because we both had read a lot of the same stuff. Also it was so dumb I'm still irritated about it.
In a session a few months ago all the martial characters had gotten paralyzed leaving the spellcasters to deal with an iron golem which they ended up defeating. It was pretty neat.
Kirara 🚗
manticores are so weird
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
manticores should be quite impossible to beat predators they shoot their spines at deadlyt accuracy that contain paralyzing venom so unless you have plate armour or such, you are dead before you even see it most likely
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also check out this manticore he packs a GUN

>>>/watch?v=JAyT10WP-cY#t=3h28m16s The reactions from the rest of the party were priceless. I know it's a long video but the actual event only runs a couple minutes.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Kill the babty
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But you know what would make the whole story even more hilarious if the goblin then afterwards grilled the baby and ate it
Kirara 🚗
i think that lady from last week that was late for the session, the fake smile one, might be trying to get me in trouble lol but jokes on her i have documentation
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
For what? maybe she tried the whole therapy to try and get a lawsuit, though.
Kirara 🚗
idk for what but she discontinued services yesterday and now people want to see my session report and stuff i can't get in trouble or anything because i did nothing wrong but still this might be annoying
Anno
>>428454 I know it might sound hard to believe from the circumstances but the goblin is kind of in the business of trying to be good. Kind of. She also went immediately unconscious in the next sequence of events because the manticore re-aggro'd on her and hit her with two attacks.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>428458 t just might be a fun way to portray "cultural differences" or smething
>>428460 Oh well post-battle they sawed off the manticore's head and paraded it all the way back to the town they'd set out from for this mission.

>Picture this: you’re hanging out with your kids or pets and they spontaneously do something interesting or cute that you want to capture and preserve. But by the time you’ve gotten your phone out and its camera opened, the moment has passed and you’ve missed your opportunity to capture it. >That’s the main problem that Google is trying to solve with its new Clips camera, a $249 device available starting today that uses artificial intelligence to automatically capture important moments in your life. Google says it’s for all of the in-between moments you might miss when your phone or camera isn’t in your hand.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Hmm did Dogma have manticores? they had chimareas and those were damn hard to fight at times. I should finish the game at some point, but I ran into some giant floating eyeball thing that I just couldn't hit with my big ass sword so I kinda figured I'd reroll as an assassin, but never went with it got any tips how to kill a giant floating eyeball with a sword?
Anno
>>428462 That is kind of a reasonable premise for a self-activating camera. Ignoring the circumstances around it the premise alone is pretty interesting.
Kirara 🚗
Interesting absolutely but it's kind of a frightening idea too
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>428462 >automatically caputers things and uploads them to the cloud >what could possibly go wrong
Kirara 🚗
>>428466 >Google, aware of the privacy implications here, stresses that linking the Clips camera to your Photos account doesn’t actually put anything new in the cloud. All that happens, Google tells me, is that the app will download a handful of images from your account and send them to the Clips camera, where it will run its face-matching algorithms locally. You can also push the button on the front of the camera to take a direct portrait of someone who you want the Clips camera to remember and prioritize. >So while the Clips camera doesn’t know who these faces are in the way Google Photos does, it does know that certain faces are more “interesting” and will try harder to shoot photos of them (and, if you’re at a park, try not to take photos of people it doesn’t recognize). Google also says that all the data on the camera is encrypted, so if you lose it, the thief won’t be able to see your photos or the facial recognition information on it. >The Clips camera then takes this data and uses it to recognize when your kids are in front of the camera and doing something photogenic, like dancing or smiling, and then automatically capture a sequence. Pets are a little different; since Google’s algorithms can’t yet identify individual pets, it basically just looks for anything it can recognize as an animal and then opens its shutter. Google stresses that it is doing all of this processing locally and not in the cloud; the Clips camera doesn’t even have a way to connect to the internet itself.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also that would make the already dangerous virus/hack that makes your camera take pictures randomly even more dangerous as now it could hack that face recog thing and take picturers of all the people you point it at
Kirara 🚗
yeah but if the encryption is good, nobody will really be able to get anything from it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
"if"
Anno
It's a good thing encryption security is a thing a number of major tech giant are taking seriously.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
atleast they are doing it now considering how many giant leaks and shit there have been
Kirara 🚗
Apparently the camera isn't good at activating at opportune times, though.
Kirara 🚗
It also has a worse camera than a phone camera and can't be worn on clothes
ToNKirara 🚗
the aperture speed isn't high enough to clearly capture movement apparently
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
so it is actually useless
Kirara 🚗
seems so but that's how tech is the first incarnation of new tech is always shit and then v2 tries to be better
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I still fear that will be one of the many inventions that the users aren't ready for yet.
Kirara 🚗
>The camera’s ultra-wide-angle field of view (it captures something similar to what a 10mm lens on a full-frame DSLR sees) makes it easy to position without a screen and be assured that you’ll get something in frame, but it’s bad for pictures of people, as it distorts facial features in an unflattering way. Likewise, anything near the sides of the frame is wildly distorted. Your subjects also have to be within roughly 10 feet of the camera, lest they be tiny in the resulting image. But the Clips’ fixed-focus lens has a range of about three feet to infinity, so nothing close to the camera is ever sharp. Even then, subjects within its range never really look sharp, either. That wouldn’t be an issue if the Clips was capturing heartwarming moments that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to get, but as I mentioned earlier, that hasn’t been the case in my experience.
it seems like the camera itself is one of the most damning issues
Kirara 🚗
>It’s hard to tell what the Clips is doing when it’s on as well. A single LED blinks when the camera is on and looking for action, but there’s no indication of when it’s actually taking a series of photos. If you push the button on the front, three LEDs will illuminate during the seven seconds it’s capturing photos, but that doesn’t happen for automatic captures. That left me wondering if the Clips was doing anything more often than not, which led me to open the app a lot to see if it had captured anything. [worry]

>>428488 apparently due to american medicine, she was ment to be brought to a farther hospital if she was a minor or something and not rushed to nearest hospital, like they do say here
Kirara 🚗
>>428488 if she was a minor, the rules say she has to go to a children's hospital because shit is dumb 17 is close enough to adult that he can make a decision to take her to an adult hospital
skKirara 🚗
i almost died because of dumb shit like that when I was in first grade
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
That iws just retarded rulesets just rush bad cases to nearest hospital that can treat them or atleast make their situation stable enough to move to better treatment facilities sure some minor cases can be pushed away, that normally occupy hospitals
Kirara 🚗
local hospital didn't have room for minors so they told my parents i couldn't be admitted even though they did x-rays and said i was going to die
Kirara 🚗
then i almost died because my mom wouldn't let them bring me to another hospital with a helicopter she wanted an ambulance
sk
this is incredibly disturbing
Kirara 🚗
it's really great how everything is rigged against survival

i had some pretty rare shit but it was treated as easily as appendicitis and i was like literally hours away from dying because my mom thought i was lying about being in pain (my organs were shutting down)

haa, I guess I should start a social media presence to lobby for the city to co-operate with red cross to sponsor long distance travelling blood donors since the special donation locations are 1 in the bloody city meaning for people like me, it akes 2,5 hours of travel time and cost about 13€ would be goo PR for the public transit company to donate to red cross to cover those costs or shit selfish, sure, but at the same time it would promote people to be more active donors, especially on the longer operations
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but I definitely dont want them to go "we pay you for donating" road
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
just I dunno, atleast give them a ticket home
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
with the mobile ticket technology etc, you could easily have a system that gives you a 2 hour ticket for all zones before the scheduled time and then get a similiar 2hour ticket when you leave it wouldn't actually cost anyone money, really and the amount of "profit" hsl would lose would be miniscule sure some would no doubt abuse it, but those would then get black listed atleast temporarily from the system
>>428512 No, nokia is not bringing back anything Nokia is not in the phone business

I mean yeah that is simplier to say, but that is just not the truth Nokia only rents out the brand name to HMD global that makes the phones and gets royalties from them. and while HMD global in essence is the part of nokia that used to make the phones before microsoft, it isn't nokia telecommunications

>>428545 The gold probably costs less than that Do we know how thick the layer is?

then again it is a dessert in an expensive restaurant, so I guess the hook is to attract people for the full course and then get that thing
FormerRei@mobile
It's probably less than a micron thick.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Would be one of those moments, if I was dining in a restaurant and had that as an option and was rich I'd really be tempted just cause I could but then again, I doubt even if I was richest in the world, that i'd dine that much in expensive places like that
