  • As a pro I’m just baffled by the choices made with lighting, I guess they tried to go for “powerful” but it just comes off as unflattering and tbh unprofessional, the right hand side is blown and the ratios are all off. Also for some reason it seems like they either blocked the light on his suit or it’s just that all the extra brightness on the face is sloppy post work…



  • That’s basically the conclusion I reached for my car insurance, once I started having somewhat nicer/recent cars I used to put the highest insurance on them. I had two minor incidents (one my fault one not), during which they said “sure, we’ll cover the costs to repair your vehicle, but we’ll also make the monthly premium go up by X and by the time it’s back to normal you’ll have paid 10x what it would cost to just fix the thing”.

    So now I get the minimal legal insurance and I’m just ready that I’ll have to pay myself for my own car (which I already was anyway due to issue described above).





  • Most restaurant or premade Cesar salads are not that healthy and have just as much calories as other options. Lettuce in itself is basically just water with a small amount of nutrients so eating it does basically nothing (positive or negative), for some people it might help with satiety by giving you a full stomach feeling but personally I’d rather not chew on greens for hours like a ruminant and prefer to drink ample water alongside/after my meal for the same effect while making sure I eat plenty of vegetables for the actual good nutrients etc.

    Anyway yeah these Cesars from restaurants etc are doused in sauce and have a bunch of calorie-dense ingredients so they’re not always a great choice (but fine to have as long as they fit your calorie allowance, just like anything else). Just make sure to balance your carb/fat/protein ratio and not go over the calories, but otherwise just eat whatever you want!



  • I guess we have most of the ingredients to make this happen. Software-wise we’re there, hardware wise I’m still waiting for AR glasses I can replace my normal glasses with (that I wear 24/7 except for sleep). I’d accept having to carry a spare in a charging case so I swap them out once a day or something but other than that I want them to be close enough in terms of weight and comfort to my regular glasses and just give me AR like overlaid GPS, notifications, etc, and indeed instant translation with subtitles would be a function that I could see having a massive impact on civilization tbh.










  • Dunno about the US but these pants are all alive and well in Europe, it’s just that the experiences they provide tend to be petty extreme (in the case of datura/belladone for example), and/or too weak or impractical compared to the modern offerings. But yeah any psychonaut worth their salt would at least know about them if not tried some of them.
