Little Girl Serenades Herd Of Cows
The little girl plays her little Accordion to call a herd of cows.
You will be awestruck to see how this little girl calls these cows using just the power of music.
This is the power of music and this is why we love music.
Purchase this music instrument from Amazon.com

i keep lizards for that job
wait, so you are afarid cows might be like cute vulcans, but you embrace lizards into your life.... sounds like propaganda that a lizard might tell
can my cats see that lizard real quick?
I wouldn't say Vulcans. More like..... Romulans. Sinister little fuckers
who wouldn't want fresh milk straight from the teat
i liked how you placed that brush in this still life to hint at the perfect hygiene that this kitten likely undergoes regulary
its 2023, who really knows
this is wrong
you used ai generation to make it right?
Nah thats a member of the Royal Cat Navy
rofl
my cat is very upset now
why is horse seeman not you profile pic though
profile pics are too small to tell what kind of seeman it is
now thats a beautiful horse
mullets are totally back
animated!
This sounds limiting to my religious expression
question: anybody getting OBS to properly record high fps when recording UE5 editor? framerate is slower than my printer
while in UE4 its 60+ fps at 4k
Show off
XD ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It is fine on my AMD CPU but I had more issues with my Intel. No idea why (OBS recordings). UE5 though, not 4.
ye i use obs, cam stuff in ue is just like totally confusing if you just wanna get a screengrab, but qualitiy is of course better inside ue
Im just setting up my laptop for screen cap, now I gotta work out the audio...
calamari seeman?
standalone editor recording is fine, but regular editor-viewport. blergh
ue5 also has some rendering tools now if you dont mind loosing realtime, can even output in super high res by tiling each render frame into multiple images and such
yea, I'd need it to be realtime
for showcasing realtimevfx work to boss-man
discord stream then 🤹
seems like you need to tweak the obs settings
I used obs like a month or 2 ago, it worked fine
not sure why its happening, and its annoying af
i would, but discords compression sucks, and I need to post the videos on jira
I can give you my settings in about 30 minutes when I get to my pc
my settings are fine, anything else it records at near uncompressed 60 fps at 4k
only unreal 5 when editor is open
wondering if its a dx12 issue
<@&213101288538374145> I have an issue where I want to get in touch with a number of people who have openings in the #freelance-jobs and have stated that I should DM them, but whose DMs are closed. Can I tag them here?
If you are using gpu encoding try cpu, the editor could be maxing out your gpu and dropping frames
pc is only using 8% of cpu, 15% of gpu in this scene.
Hmm nvm then
settings served me well these past 8 years
UE5 is also fooking up my pre-amp, resulting in 10-20 second audio delays when ue5 is open
Hm that looks fine
What capture source are you using
tried both monitor and app
Hmm except trying cpu encoding I have no idea
i'll try it next time I need to record, cant hurt to try
🤔
if its just one or two, go ahead,
worst case when there are a lot, try to keep it in one post.
Are you on the latest obs version?
yuz
Ok I think I asked anything I can think of 😅
i'll let you know when I try cpu and see if that makes adiff.
There are at least 10.
Why don't people open their DMs if they post jobs 
just one post with @ ing them all, and slapping them with a trout for being dummies XD
Lmao
I have made the post and as expected it's hit the limit below 10.
I think if there's at least 10 people without open DMs, maybe it's them or I should open my DMs and see if that's not a problem because of me.
Imma try that out briefly and leave all the crypto servers because that's where all the unsolicited DMs usually come from.
you can give it a few attempts, either by changing a letter or add a space somewhere.

How are you doing Luos?
he's too busy listening to A'Dam song on repeat
🤷🏻♂️
He went to grab a chicken prolly.
very possible
No, it specifically said I have reached the maximum mentions limit. No amount of Whitespace should change that.
okay so it appears I can send them messages
Let's ignore my post for now, but I want to use it for contacting everyone asap.
allrighty
You should add them all to a group chat and have them bid for you
Let the poker decide.
I'll take the non-nft queen
If the exposure is with AI girls, it might work.
But the maiden-king??
I sense a trap here 🤔
I also feel it
eew no.
Who knows at this point, aaanyway
That's... a harem isn't it
people in a harem do your bidding
I don't exactly have the sort of pull that a bunch of employers would bid for me 👉 👈
they don't do bidding
but I kinda understand the concept of wanting to create a bidding mechanism like Fiverr because I have limited time as a person who can die
do you know people that don't die?
I can offer 15!
Yeah, but those are a 0.001%
one doesn't simply decide to do a phd
I read "lie", noice 
I was wondering about these immortals
lol
no I am definitely travelling to Wimdledon for my part-time job every Monday to teach a bunch of kids and seeing all the cringey billbboards with the ads for the championship
also tennis is nice I think
and got a shitty book that I never opened
(it was with school)
I couldn't care less about tennis
I was watching it for the women maybe but I do like the whole strategic part where you don't want to get exhausted first
which is like a major repeating theme in most individual sports
and team sports
and martial arts too!
not sure if watching tennis to look at women is something you should mention in public
london is not india
women are actually respected there
most of the time
not to the tennis aficionado for sure
I beg to differ about London lmao
if it's one thing I have seen, nobody defaults to being respected, it's just something that's earned
you will be shocked if you meet me IRL honestly, not much a Discord chat can do in my favour
That's so wrong in many ways....
Because there is people that do that, isn't mean to be that way
why of course if by earning you only ever think about sex then yes
but if you don't think like that then there's nothing wrong with earning respect as any human being rip
what does this have to do with sex lol
Welp I'm lost
and that's just a depressing way to look at the world and can cause youself trouble
Ah, by respect if you mean having courtesy, then that's a different thing
you should default to the opposite
respect people until proven otherwise
and even then
to be courteous doesn't mean you give respect to the other person, only that you don't want to punch them for annoying you honestly
you are a strange human
I come from the opposite camp.
Let me link a video.

That I mean, and even if someone disrespect you or don't value you, the best you can do is still keep the respect and leave that people away
for startes treating tennising women as humans and not a hunk of meat to gaze and drool over is a tiny sliver of respect
I default to courtesy, openness, and good manners, but I don't yield respect unless it's earned.
Wasn't that a joke though
lol no
Does watching tennis for women who are struggling physically while playing strategically necessitate treating them as objects?
I think you are not steelmanning my position here.
oh it sure does lmao
Isn’t pickleball the same thing as tennis?

dont forget that just its because minimum wage doesnt mean it's good. That has to cover your living costs and everything. You also arent guaranteed to be working constant hours like with minimum wage. What happens if you only get 1 2 hour job for that week. Are you going to be able to live off of $50? Probably not in London.
but also keep in mind that your pay should be based on what you bring to the table
that too
if you suck ass you can't ask 300 pounds an hour
USD 25 is above the minimum wage in London by a lot, and it does account for rent, energy bills, and a lot of items assuming I am working 50 hours a week.
damn
double flag
Ohhh I get it pickleball just the mobile app version of tennis. It’s smaller and uses lower quality hardware.
who wants to work 50 hours a week sheesh
You can't guarantee you will be working 50 hours a week can you?
live a little
I literally have no idea 😅
Wait 50h per week ?
I had to Google it
Well there's a catch -- I am working all of those hours, potentially as a PhD student with an assistant academic position.
I work 38 and it's already a lot lol
you guys only work 50h/week?
I am squeezing out all the hours in my week (while not dying)
I could live with like 10
why does that word even get flagged
Spain is one of the countries were the people work more hours in EU and isn't 50h per week
...skeet is an adult site is my best guess
who doesnt nowadays :P
don't they nap in the middle of the day?
I thought they were chillin
lol
yeah is siesta, nobody does that tbh
yeah could be
johns for dieter
my spanish friend does take like 3 hour lunch breaks
defuk
But yes my calculation does give me a lot of weekend time and I am also discounting the fact that it's based on my current schedule.
he's a crazy man
na the breaks here for food etc are 30mins
I can choose my own break but has to be a minimum of 15 minutes every 6 hours
Yeah I do also, but is more random when you work from home and shit happen
does your calculation account for the fact that there is no guarantee you will receive 50 hours worth of work. I mean if you can guarantee that, that's pretty great. But its good to be safe
this is my typical week rn
I most often take like 25 min though
I do between 40-56 hours a week but I work from home so I do my daily hours in chunks, not in one sitting
I'll get at least 20 additional hours tbf.
you gonna work during classes?
You're never going to eat a meal?
not really, it will change right
I just sit on my ass for 8 hours and pretend to work for most of them 😄
You are working now for yourself or externals ?
good thing about being salaried
lol
you gonna drop school?
That's why a lot of people in this country wants to work for the goverment
External/hired
All the black areas are free slots so I can eat during them.
Also the blue slots are not strict -- I can get up and eat food from my kitchen so it's got 1 hour of free leeway.
thats why governments are trash
I could replace him with a script in 2 days probably
they attract people who dont want to work 😄
they also grow that culture themselves tbh
Also the orange slots with Gurudwara visits are "have a meal and return the favour with service" slots
that makes the schedule look a lot less horrific then :P
But they don't do much and get paid each month and have holidays in this country.
And a lot of people find in that "quality of life" so they can travel and don't have any worry in life.
next to the time you have free though, you also have to find people willing to hire you
yeah it's cushy, I just would be bored out of my mind
Na, in this country I found families of people that don't want to work lying to the state so they get 1k per month for free
already on it!
they also qualify for loans more easily here
Well that's good then
But yeah in those is probably a mix of people with people like that too
A lot of those are the people that later in the profile bios have something like "the opposite of living is not taking risks"
yeah the risk definition and any really depends of the person that makes the sentence
as long as you get paid for doing them
we don't get anything for working overtime so why should I bother
not even holiday compensatino
not that I have too little vacation days lol
I get 30 every year
I struggle to use them all and just pay out the ones I can lol
working on it
yeah I get paid per hour so I tend to do some weekends sometimes
taking this friday off
yeah, if it was by the hour I'd probably do some extra 😄
for overtime you get taxed even more though here 🙃
belgium is like the opposite of a tax haven
Well as self employee never have holidays or vacation days, not even local holidays because work for other countries and they don't have a clue about
I tend to have my "weekend" on like tuesday and/or wednesday. Then work weekends. I'm weird.
And there is always an extra that can be done without get extra cost
I'm just too comfortable where I'm at atm
But from my exp the worst case is when you get a client that disrespect you as worker and as person, and not because the hours
Tbf there is something satisfying in taking a day off in the middle of the week when you know you should be working instead 😅
Lol
If you're lucky only once and you're set for a few good years
That never happened to me 👀
but is there much difference with working for that company directly then
strange
Why would that be illegal?
If you have only one client and you are self employee is considered fake contract
Your own schedule? Can nap at lunch everyday? Take 3 days off whenever
tax dodge
Yep
You probalby have less rights.
Ah. Well technically I'm self employed and work for a single company... I pay my taxes, though.
well depends how much you charge I guess
Yeah they basically do tax evasion as Laura said, plus they don't want/have to pay your health care etc
can depend on the contract though
in belgium there is a loop hole but you have to wait 3 years
I think the only reason I'm "self employed" is because the company I work for isn't in the UK.
It is used here to skirt the 48% tax for salary. Make a company, hire yourself at minimum wage, only pay like 10%.
like if you're the founder of the company, any money that has been in the company for 3 years you can pay yourself at 15% tax
instead if the 40-50% of normal wage
I mean you can be with a client only for 2 years lets say, but you had the company 4 and had other clients prior is fine
and of course you can shove all kinds of expenses in your company
Is HARD to have a client for more than 1 year usually with the changing state of this sector
Sell some stuff on the ue marketplace - new client!
Yeah that's true
from freelancing companies that tried to recruit me they worked with 2 year contracts average I think
damm
depends what you do I guess
I think that's basically all my company has...
Maybe had bad luck lmao
That is also illegal (sort of) here. You'll pay more if all you're doing is "consulting"
like if we hired someone for what we work on, it would be useless to have them for less than 6 months probably
but then again, we don't really hire consultants
Also a external contractors shouldn't be a normal worker, with the same hours etc
Usually companies mix the concept
we do work with an outsourcing company, but those people are pretty much full employees
some of them been with us for 10 years
Like yeah its fine to be at some meetings or common ones, but damm
I was thinking of working for a freelance agency first to see how it works and get some connections and more skills
but idk cause they take a cut
maybe waste of money lol
I'm just afraid I wouldn't find anyone to hire me lol
but then again, I have pretty much no view on the freelance market
true
but then the contract expires 😱
I need to look more into the tax details and benefits and tradeoffs tbh
but idk anyone personally that does it
Is never late to try things
that's the scary thing, I have a home loan coming up lol
Freelance market can be wild. I mean foreign companies jump on us because we're still cheap versus western EU but pay so much more you can live in luxury
tbf money is nice without kids
I have noticed that if you have no standards you can find a job in 1 working day probably lol
I kinda want the kids thoung 😅
"yeah sure ill write you an mmo in 1 day for $20"
Better have them before mid 30s or you'll just be too tired to enjoy them
Tbh that's usually a good plan, but the non risky part finds it too risky to be with that person 
I'd love to be a stay at home dad if my gf was rolling in money
You have time to make 2 or three! That's so young lol
unfortunately I do outearn her atm
3 is the plan 👀
Well that's nice to listen that can happen
Don't contribute to overpopulation!
need some to fill the absolute giant castle I'm building
I'll kill some people to balance out (jk)
There are more cats than kids inb my country already
phew almost banned
Where are you from, btw?
S-Pain
Ah. Heh.
s🥖
LOL
my favourite country is sfrench_bread :P
You have plenty of time to discover things
Even though they're assholes they're so great
Croissant are better
ngl i kinda want a bread portal
well I wanted to specifically indicate french bread
as in the language
just click one of those free nitro links
hows that ?
I had the Discord nitro once and all the gifts they gave to me were for Xbox and such
so cool
it's a trap always, to be fair I didn't knew Discord gave gifts, so is a welcome thing for the people using that platforms etc idk
i think it's rather bait than a welcome thing
"Come for the shiny things, stay for the $10 a month emojis" - Discord
what are the gifts though?
I know theyve done things liek free gamepass and gameplay drops before
Many years ago they did some free games too
It's kind of like twitch drops just nowhere near as useful :P
They are. Cats are better than people. Fact.
and they make great alarm clocks
a cat motivated me to update to 5.2
just to spent a day fixing crashs etc. to figure out that 5.2 groom is even more broken on my system
pic or it didn't happen
Oh, an orange cell
can you go to jail for grooming cats?
go figure
If under 18
or 5.2 hotfix which will probably never drop
currently it looks like their focus is 5.3
for a second it looked like the normals of the cat were inverted
it's only the fur
damn it was just born like that, don't be insensitive
🦴
shush Dieter
HSM was sent to travel the world... now hes confused, well done lounge...
nice
🙂 You love me really
who
you
idk what you're talking about
He's a Fukushima?
I only hate people
are you sure about that ?
🌅 beachlife bb
except me of course
i bring bad puns no one can hate that
obviously
OOh good one. Brotherhood by far for me. AC2 being a close second.
oh I loved brotherhood
Then I'd probably tie black flag and Syndicate for third place
was also my first though so I'm biased
they're doing a remake of black flag for some reason
so you do not hate all people
and the studio that is still working on skull and bones is making it lmao
i hope its one of those remakes where they also give it more content
fair point
Ac2 isnt that close if im being honest
Brotherhood will always be my favourite.
ezio is bae
To remake it without bugs?
who knows
I own the Ezio trilogy on like 3 separate things i like it that much
yeah
Ezio's Family is probably one of my favorite tracks from an OST
Any relation to the Sundance Kyd?
any relation to Rider Kyd?
Or Billy the Kyd?
stop kydding around
this comes up on my spotify so much
didn't even know it was from AC lol
I can definitely hear the resemblance
same, only because i added it though :P
spotify is the one subscription i dont regret buying
it's the only thing that keeps me sane when commuting
yeah I use it so much
oh i see Laura is back
spotify duo 💯
my playtime in 2022 was only 56086 minutes though
was higher the year before
but apparently that's still top 4% in belgium
96% of people are wasting their money
does it work on your phone?
that works ?
doesnt for me. I was actually using a dns adblock for a while, and the reason i stopped is because it broke spotify
well I mostly listen on my phone, subscribing was worth it
@unreal ether ♥️
lmao
yep
I use it all the time though, so don't really mind paying atm
maybe if they ever raise the price I'll ditch it though
I was a deezer guy before, but they raised it to 11E
Honestly if youtube manages to implement a working anti adblock then i'll probably switch to youtube premium
it sucks but at least i still get music n stuff
I came from the old school and just plug a pendrive with the music tbh
unrelated: playing with Dear ImGui is kinda fun
I had a Cowon mp3 player, it was mind blowing
I had an mp3 player once. When teh apple ipod things were newish and only had like 512mb space or whatever.
Mine was half the price and had 32gb of space.
i had a walkman cassette player
Me too once.
I mean now the cars come with the pendrive thing always so
and a 4gb tiny ass sony ipod clone
you could (and i did) watch movies on that thing's 1.5 inch screen lmao
The 00s
Ok
Near the end we got like few spindels of these. Was a bit hard to search for one.
man early 2000s were a mood
CD wallets?
oh oh oh, does anyone remember what a sub woofer was? 😂
is that what they are called? i dont know
||have you heard of xManager...?||
no
I was considering premium + music instead of spotify, but they don't have podcasts outside of US yer for some reason
threw out a pair of broken those a few months ago lol
||it's on github. pretty cool app that allows you to manage your spotify "patches"||
that's odd. I can't do podcasts personally. Theyre just a bit boring to me.
which they also provide
thats pretty cool
good film
Oh new option on discord
nice
next up it is named to mixer
Lol

hi 👋
Something about a dev stream and bad hair settings I think
have you tried https://antennapod.org/ and https://gpodder.github.io/
idk how better it gets
the Apple one is really primitive near those

i honestly think eating dirt in a forest tastes better
If you say so 🤔
You don't want to drink algae?!
Yeah me neither
well it does look a lot like dirt
tastes like rotten moss
You're supposed to mix it with water. XD
Disclaimer: That will not make it taste better.
alternatively, it's not for oral ingestion!
Nasal feeding tube?
🤔
i think you are all strange, wanting to eat forest dirt 😐
that would be the best thing for the body 😉
Triple Choco cake ♥️
I'm getting a sugar sickness just by looking at it.
package service never showed up to my house, then say I wasn't at the door, classic
then they say they'll deliver it to a nearby store
and now they say it is delayed and will be delivered tomorrow
still to the store
If you have a camera, complain.
we had one guy that either just threw it in front of the door, or just looked at package, and then be like, fook it, nobody home.
Recorded him doing the latter, just looking at the heavy box, looking at the door, shrug his shoulders, and drove off.
^
I was literally home all day, he didn't even pull up or anything
never passed the house
sucks to be you
they said packages could be delayed due to bad weather
but then don't say it's my fault and go deliver it somewhere else
worst one was prolly when I ordered the bobblehead for alexander paschall (previous community guy for ue)
ship it to spain, but alex was away, so it got shipped back to the US.
I explained what happened, it got shipped to spain, but again, by that time, he had to be elsewhere.
went on a few times, also since it was a present, his gf/wife wanted to pick it up, but didnt have alex's credentials, so was denied.
blablabla
and in my case, either shits never delivered, or I get the wrong stuff.
< orders super expensive headset, get a pokemon card holder book.

So @sand oxide where did you disappear to for a long time?
That is a sketchy answer but ok

Did you fill in the pokemon book tho?
the horizontal scroll wheel on my mouse doesn't work in the UE editor

adress on the box was also in dordrecht, so after calling the company sending stuff, gf decided to drive to the people who had my headset. problem solved.
lol, took on a courier path, heh
you're lucky they swapped the packages then
🤔
hehe
baaaan
got a 10,- voucher for doing the couriers job as well.
imho, if someone is dumb enough to click on such a discord link, they dont have any right to be unbanned afterwards XD
i kinda felt stupid reporting that knowing you had just posted mere seconds before it but hey
prolly just muscle memory XD
no free pr0n discord
which makes no sense, there is enough of that out there.
there is your free nitro as car gif
dieter no package to box nearby wasnt available?
this delivery service doesn't do this
sounds like a multi level marketing sceme 😛

we dont even have such high tech bags here, transparent shader and all
its those big plaid bags you dont wanna be, you know the ones, every homeless person seems to have acouple
transparent shader is prolly useful to make GPU particles to simulate them flying all over the place

I see this new window popping out since latest release 
how would i remove it?
Haven't this been always the window?
I suppose I always had a preference that hide it then 
This can't be.
i like that you are protected by a hypervisor, i always liked visors, they just bring this flair of autheticity and playfulness to any outfit
Trying to find this game, it was an nvidia showcase one on unreal engine with these like alien bugs crawling around
nvidia bugs?
It was on UE4, was actually one of the earlier games but I think it might have died 😦
I saw that
I think they hate the post 6 episodes sequels?
No thats definitely not it, it was like microscopic aliens with heavy depth of field
haven't seen those yet
Infinitesimals?
Thats the one I always think it is but its not that
Were they like black blobs or crystals?
You would think so by the name but it was more alien, more like monster bug type aliens
Whats with YouTube search lately do I have to buy Red to get more than 10 results?
I only get recommended after the first few and theyre shoving shorts everywhere
I had a search earlier and it had 4 lists of the same shorts in different orders scattered in the results...
but yes Infinitesimals is not it, even though the name kinda suggests its what Im talking about. I think this is why its confusing because the project Im talking about was advertised along side that game as they started at a similar time earlier in UE4s development
clearly elon is limiting youtube api requests

he closed up Twitter so fast they had to pay to put stuff in storage for Twitter and now theyre suing
He owes rent worldwide from what I can tell, wasnt just San Fran
Meanwhile on Threads lol
did they release it yet?
Yeah man its pumping
rip
oh right yeah cuz you have strict data protections
where us Aussies let the ISPs collect metadata on all our junk pics
the zuck can't just steal all our shit like that
he first has to pay the bribes
then he can steal
pretty sure he already did
it is instagram but text... its so weird because isnt that just facebook
I guess IG is for the cool kids
facebook but aimed at non boomers?
no one wants to hang out with the old people on FB
I seen Boomers on TikTok... where will all the kiddos go
college hopefully
That sounds like a cool app
I'll make money on that and drop out of school
And we got the Twitch exodus to Kick going on too
gotto get dem kids addicted to gambling early on
From what Ive heard Kick will be paying streamers with regular crowds pretty well just for being on the platform
They need to offset those profits I guess
70% in best case
Im building my whole Twitch persona around boomer shooters
You're.. Doomed?
you should stream on facebook to shoot the boomers
FB video shudders
but not quite as bad as the dreaded Twitter video
Compression got you down, try gifs on imgur
It's quite hard to compress a video to be in 140bytes.
ascii animation, you can make a single character do the floss
prove it!
Anyone try easyfog?
looks neato
whats that website to search for UE stuff?
it was like the marketplace but better lol
like orbital MP or somethin
i bought pizza yesterday
bills i think
I have a single slice of peperoni from a pizza today.
dude
... for 2 weeks
Was fantastic, I just took a memory hit.
I had lasagne today... it was a pre made one... i put it in the combi microwave on oven setting wich i hardly ever use
i put the plastic microwave thing over it and it melted
...
i have no idea where they sell a new1
if you have memory problems just get one of these new home computers to store your thoughts
pretty much everywhere where they sell microwaves
ahh cool,. gotta get 1
I usually use an airfryer now
i also got a combo microwave which is supposed to even make pizza
but somehow it's not as good as from a real oven
i had a microwave and it had lightenings coming out of it... I called it the mojo jojo machine... i kinda miss that thing
it has circular heating like an air fryer tho, and a grill on the top, but still
yea i dont like combi micro pizza either... the airfryer does a decent job on it tho
it fits in the air fryer?
well i have to cut it in half
i could fit it in, but than the air wont circulate
i use the air fryer to heat up pizza slices from the day before, which works perfect
just put it ontop your rtx card and turn unreal to cinematic
i bet the pizza could go in one go if i fold it, but thats just not the same
you could ge two of those safe microwaves and put them next to each other maybe
could also get the smaller size pizza, picolinis are perfect for airfryer tho
I used to make pizza from scratch, but now i usually get frozen and put extra stuff on it
both works
i watched this for 2 minutes until i noticed what is actually going on... 😄
You didn't notice it was virtual?
No no.
and i guess, that brain decision made it hard to to spot it
He's a serious shut-in truck driver otaku.
also i watched in fullscreen and portrait mode
so focus was always on a small portion of the video rather than the whole
so i pretty much never paid attention to the upper 25%
which is what mostly gives it away
idk
rather drive a real truck then?!
i dunno.. a truck went right trough it, and the truck started to fly

one blue man is trolling the other, they marked the troll orange

I need to watch that anime
you're really not making this easy 😭
I generate AI images and stuff 😛
havent seen it myself
im sorta watching trigun stampede.. but havent watched any in a month or so, watch pretty good and not many episodes so ill prolly finish it sometime
Trigun Stampede was way too disney for me.
Looked like they should be building snowmen or something.
@broken sigil where can i report abuse of moderator powers?
I feel like my user rights are getting violated
dont talk about fight club?
i didnt tell about fight club... i just did an interpative dance
There are far too many Adams on this server.
Are any of you on Threads?
could you give me moderator powers... just for a day... see how it goes?
I dunno... it really feels like im the hero in this story
let me just find some radioactive waste i can roll around in
Is there going to be a Unreal Threads?
threads is going to be part of activitypub's fediverse, so that's theoretically possible. Hm!
Good morning everyone! (it's 6pm my time)
looks like a good pizza
No pineapple so no
at least it is from Mercedes-Benz
i bet it is vegan 💀
Why does this happen? I got banned from my twitter account as well. I don't post anything on it and just read game dev related posts.
how is it so far?
these new apps might be good for game devs tbh
just gain a bit of following on it first
before other game devs come on it lol
tomorrow i'll get on it
that was a strange sensation. I had this oddly powerful desire to watch Heroes, and the only place i found it reasonably priced was the NBC streaming service., so.. now i pay for another streaming service :/
That's called Intrusive thoughts. Letting them win.
bad news is news
Nah.. I'm enjoying Heroes now! 😁
oops, unintentional ping
Didnt take long for all the promoters to jump on
Not sure how they select the content for feeds, I think its just based on views and interactions
Dare I say it but I prefer TikTok lol
Sometimes it is better not to say anything.
This is why my Threads and Twitter are so bare 😛
someone claimed these are the permission reqs
It is nice Twitter is still visible w/o account. Or was it 🤔
Nah, some stuff on Facebook requires you have an account. Groups, clips (I got sent those).
I didnt see any excessive permissions when I installed Threads, it might use Instagrams permissions possibly but I dont even allow that to access my camera unless I say so
Public groups you can view without an account
It seems a lot of celebrities and brands were courted for the launch.
it might just be 9gag propaganda too, i have not researched
but you can post content to groups for the group only which isnt considered public
I just jumped on to secure my user name
You can always request new emoji in #969360633386655744. That's the best place so other people can see and vote it up if they support the idea.
huh pfist woke up from a nap
Believe it or not, there is life outside Discord.
Lol that was quick
I can't take naps anyway. They really mess me up.
pfist was all excited to share his haberdashery and was in for a rude awakening 😛
I wake up feeling worse than before the nap and with a massive headache every time
You weird guys, I heard that before. I take a nap and at worst, feeling a bit sleepy for few minutes.
I avoid them because it messes me up every time
System bug
My first impression: Very intriguing. I like Instagram's simple UI style, and seeing it applied to a Twitter-like app is actually really nice. It feels very fast and easy to use. So far the community is good, but it just launched yesterday so we will see how long that lasts. I joined because I am interested to see how it develops, and because I use Instagram to promote my music.
Unlikely I will create a personal account there. I really only use social media platforms to promote my projects.
Can't tell if it's a hardware or software issue tho 
I opened Threads and was unable to see any kind of button, search or whatever. Only one link to a post I was able to open.
It feels odd though, am I bad for expecting more from the worlds leading social media company?
On the other hand, you can rotate the 3d particles Threads logo.
Maybe some sort of nostalgia, an attempt to recapture Zucks youth perhaps
I'm kinda hoping it flops tbh
Oh god I just had a realization...
Am I turning into an old grumpy man
I have read a few interviews with the developers as well as the Instagram CEO. It sounds like they see this as a risky but worthwhile experiment, so it's intentionally launching bare bones. They have plans to support ActivityPub in the future, which is interesting.
No. You're like half my age.
You just think more than most of your peers about this stuff.
BM is speedrunning the mentality.
@ Blue Man 'one of us.. one of us..'
I meant mentally 
Youre obviously on FB with the other grumpy old men 😛
like me 😄
I haven't used Facebook in many years.
I might be half your age but I feel 75 😅
I was gonna say that, BM soaked too much from this server of oldies.
Youve been Boomered
Alright. I am going to go watch a horror movie and eat Tillamook ice cream.
It's on the same decentralized protocol as Mastadon and its related kin; not sure if that means you can use a non-meta account to access threads, or if it's going to be a one way relationship.

I just hope Threads doesnt turn into News, everyone gets grumpy reading the news. Id be happy to leave that sort of thing on FB
Threads required an Instagram account.
Theyre heavily promoting IG integration though
And ActivityPub support is not available at launch. That will come later.
This server has ruined me, has grumpified me 😅
The Instagram integration was a smart move. 24 hours after launching, they have over 30 million members.
Network effects are powerful with these kind of apps
maybe this channel should be grunge instead of lounge 😛
The question is... does YouTube embeds work
I bet they dont
Hm ok if I can use my ig account I might hate it a tiny bit less
What is discord though
discord is when you pull on a thread
but tbh I think discord is like ikea in this analogy
because you gotta build your own furniture
the name threads just reminds me of that british nuclear holocaust movie
I used to view disaster films as just fun, now they're the most horror there is
😮
I hate Meta, but i think Elon is even worse
at least Zuck doesnt pretend to be a gift to humanity 😛
zuck accepts reptilian life
look he can smile, just like a real human
asking BBC if you should wash your rice, if it gets less sticky etc:
"More recently, with the heavy use of plastics in the food supply chain, microplastics have been found in our foods, including rice. The washing process has been shown to rinse up to 20% of the plastics from uncooked rice. "
honestly... holy fuck...
well think the mark and elon on court room
didnt he just fire 90% of employees?
dont they see that people just use discord anyway?
its not like you still reach people with either Fuckbook nor twatter
both need logins to see, which defeats the purpose of becoming an exhibitionist clicklike whore
Do you think he'd know if I cheated
Shouldn't that be in #generative-ai
Mmm... I have a big box with ice-creams mix
#gluttony
Are you having a stroke? 🤔 Can't understand a shit.
What is the discord server for people using/learning blender that is similar in style, function, and community to the Unreal Slackers discord
There is a big Blender server, if you duck it, you will find it.
Omg
I left time ago, it was too big.
I just realized what people mean when they say 'duck it'

I have the red blender discord and blender community discord
dont check em often tho
3D animators are going to love this.
This is ChatGPT-4 for Blender.
& It’s available for everyone to try👇

I thought maybe there was some weird profanity filter or something. My brain is smoother than your wildest imagination
uh, lol
I abbreviated from duckduckgo it, akin to google it. Just because I use ddg and not google usually.
Oh, you powerful gpt bro, make me an waifu
I figured it would be the easiest to learn for my purposes
yes
I figured it would have the most resources helping people like me learn* Is what I should have said
you prolly learn best from youtube with key capture on
look at what hotkeys they use
I had to turn off vim motions because I was getting so overwhelmed trying to keep the contents of my brain from spilling out
hotkey in edit mode.. not the same as hotkey in sculpt mode 😄
So that's going to be fun
Blender hotkeys are pretty cool. Kinda Z. I like Z keys. Cool tech. Big benefit. Much wow.
Time is my biggest asset
it comes with a monkey head
I would take Blender UI/UX anyday instead of whatever Autodesk is smoking.
the .net UI in the newer Maxs is sooo bad
well does all ui start to look the same
