Depends, how fat? Like I’d say I’m fat if I’m not fitting in my clothes and that’s probably 4kgs extra. If I had a partner I’d expect support to get to my desired weight again. Even if I’m still within an acceptable BMI with or without those extra kilos. If I was going too underweight I’d expect them to talk me back to my senses.

Hi there. My feet are the same size, although I would say the whole left side of my body is slightly, just slightly, larger than the right. I don’t feel any difference between my feet with regards to shoe size.

Having said that, I do get callused soles on my left, and I wear out the shoe soles slightly more as well.

I used to wear cheap shoes when I was younger, but my experience is that they always rub me off on some spot or another in a painful way, or just feel painful when walking or standing for long periods of time. I haven’t had those kinds of problems since switching to expensive shoes. I also noticed the expensive ones are not that much more of an investment since they last longer.

So yeah I’m not saying that’s the solution to everything but good quality shoes definitely helps.

Ok, just curious, I can think of other things that would make someone “successful” in the music world but I think talent would still be in my top 10 for sure. Not essential as I said, you don’t need to check everything in the list.

What are your top 10s?

Fame comes with the right social connections and luck. Talent helps, but is secondary. Of course, if you have all three, you become very very well known and people will feel you deserve in some way the fame and fortune you have.

Sir/Ma’am all you had to do was phrase it as a question, not a statement

I’m sure there have to be more specialized communities for this though

Pirate zbrush and try Nomad. I don’t have a tablet so I never gave it a go.

As for Zbrush, Maxon has done absolutely nothing of value to it since its acquisition. I purchased the perpetual license when it was still Pixologic and that’s what I keep using. I hear from industry professionals that I don’t miss out on absolutely anything new at all.

No.

There is only so much you can learn that is applicable to real life situation about body movement. I guess you can read that if you hold your breath and relax, or keep a certain upright posture with your arms extended, then you will remain afloat. But that’s about it. You need to go and try it. No matter for how many years you read, you need to first go and try the basics.

You can say the same about riding a bicycle I guess or rollerblades or a skateboard

That’s a really good point a lot of people miss. There are a lot of right answers in this post, different people, different results; age; etc. But if you don’t level up the challenge and make sure you are meeting those challenges correctly then you will stagnate. True for everything

But 2-3 car lengths? It really bugs me when they do it in a left turn lane causing a back up to the travel lane resulting in overall congestion.

This reminds me of one time I witnessed instant karma. I was driving behind someone doing this in crawling-slow heavy traffic, and got to one of those large intersections with such lanes. Here in Australia they’re right turn lanes, though that’s irrelevant for the story I wanted to share.

So right in front of me there was this car with at least four guys in it, loud music, and an imbecile on the wheel. I got stuck behind him on a single lane road with no means to overtake. He was driving somewhat below the speed limit for no apparent reason and leaving a massive gap before the next car in front. He still left a large gap when we both merged on a crowded multi lane road, and he kept that 3 car spaced gap at every red light stop. He would lag several seconds before starting to move, obviously not paying attention. I honked a couple times to nudge him.

One of those irritating assholes I guess.

Now, somewhere behind me on the lane to the left there was some other guy with a red convertible and an attitude that screamed “YES I’M OVERCOMPENSATING”.

We got to the intersection where the turn only lanes appeared, and the idiot in front of me was once again holding traffic as he lagged to resume driving. But the lane on my left, which continued straight, moved just enough to let the red convertible guy right beside the idiot. And then all of a sudden the convertible revved and zoomed right in front and across the idiot, cutting him off and overtaking him on the turn only lane, sliding right in that annoying massive gap he was leaving.

That was the only time in my life I celebrated such a douchebag move. The slow idiot went insane. Started yelling at the convertible, gave him the finger. The convertible was the last car able to turn on that change of lights so the idiot and everyone behind had to wait yet again for green, but I wasn’t mad. Watching the car in front of me shake with rage until the lights changed again made up for it. He didn’t lag once they went green again.

I agree it’s highly unlikely. However, I’ve been rear-ended once, and my car got pushed forward the space of at least another car and a half, in spite of my panicked reflex of pressing the brakes as it happened. I didn’t crash into anything because I was first on the lane, I got pushed into the intersection.

So yes, you can get rear-ended and the gap in front of you will save you in money and insurance claims bs time if you don’t hit anyone in front as well as a result. It will make little difference regarding your ability to switch lanes though.

In saying that, I don’t leave this massive space in front of me. I stick to the “see the next car’s tyres” rule and if traffic is really packed (as during rush hour, when everyone crawls start stop) I sometimes reduce it to curb parking distance.

The roo is good and I would have it more often if not for the price tag.

The ants and mealworms were pan fried, sauteed I guess. They were good. Ants were like a zesty citrus crumb and mealworms were sort of like popcorn.

Not many, I’ve had crickets, ants, mealworms, venison, kangaroo, I think that’s it for unusual. Not sure if things like duck and eel make it to the exotic list for you. I’ve had kangaroo more times than I’ve had eel though, probably just because of location.

Presuming you mean meat I consistently dislike no matter if it’s well prepared or in good condition: None. I would say beef and chicken but those were isolated instances and you removed them as options too.

Then… I don’t know, every time I tried something else it turned out to be good. Once I had a codfish that wasn’t well prepared. It was tough like a shoe sole and full of bones. But it didn’t taste terrible, so I’m not sure if it’s a suitable option.

It just gives the audience a clearer picture of the artist’s process. I’m not saying artists (and btw I’m an artist) need to disclose every piece of reference they use for everything, every time. However many artists do share their process, and the way in which reference is used can vary greatly. Many artists use reference to practically copy the subject, others just use reference to understand the subject and then create something completely different. Or in a completely different pose.

As someone consuming art, I would appreciate knowing what type of mastery and skills the artist has- did they envision this in their minds? How much? What inspired them? Is this an accident or deliberate? Etc. This may be irrelevant to some people, but many at some point want to understand how the artist thinks and feels.

Before AI it would have been obvious that if the subject is not realistic and not found elsewhere then it has to be the artist’s imagination, or an accident. Now an artist could be copying AI instead and you would never know.

I find that artists that tend to copy their references with high fidelity (such as many wildlife painters or illustrators, or personal portraits) are also among those disclosing their references the most. This makes the audience appreciate the artists’ skills more. You can see the difference between the original and the result whereas you would otherwise have to guess.

I can see the fuzz. Yes it’s probably the brand of paper. That’s a nice granite brush holder you got there.

That’s if the dust is caused by the paper.

Okay some people are answering with Bidet as a solution, which makes no sense (you are not going to hose down the bathroom are you?)

A photo could be useful in diagnosis, but maybe not. It could be the TP brand, it could also be regular dust since you mention it gets behind the toilet seat too.

Are you near a window? The worst cases of dust in the bathrooms that I’ve seen were caused by debris from the window. It doesn’t even need to be a large window. My money is on the TP brand from the sounds of it

Bring more homies, and more guns. What could go wrong?

Well it’s probably going to burn a little whenever you take a shower. In terms of time that’s difficult to estimate since everyone has different times for healing and we don’t know how severe or large the patch is. For reference, I’ve had boiling water burn my fingertips a couple times and it takes about 4 days to a week to heal enough so that I don’t feel it anymore, maybe add a few days until it’s gone for good. Your arm will be different though

No, though I think the right thing for the artist would be to disclose that the references were ai.
