  • Also, the floor pattern where her left calf was (our right), is blended over rather than having the pattern’s white knot design. So it seems he definitely moved her with a photoshop. Still crazy how well he rendered the rest of the man in the background. The dude’s too good to seem real, which is an awesome compliment imo




  • Even bad press is still press? I don’t have an opinion on Stonehenge yet; I’m pretty sure the art they “defaced” was only the protective casing; and I haven’t researched them enough to form a true opinion of my own

    But now I’m curious as to whether (or not) “I think” their motives are “ignorant” or somehow “nefarious” at times. I’ve seen them in the news for a while now, and I haven’t always agreed with their course of action… sometimes I believe it to be too impulsive. But they’re still doing it. They’ve forced a discussion that keeps the issue in the forefront, and now it has me wanting to look-into their situation more. And I do believe-in what they’re advocating, even if I’m not sure it’s the “correct” way to do it

    Yet here we are, talking about it. “There’s no such thing as ‘Bad Press’”, I guess? Are they right?.. maybe. Are they detracting from the plight?.. also, maybe. Am I sure of my opinion of their protests?.. no, not really. Seems like something I’ll have to read more about.

    So maybe, mission accomplished (in-progress)? Idk, but I see the merit regardless of their actions









  • I began learning on a cheap acoustic that made it incredibly hard to play, but I never knew any better.

    Many years later, I was given a nicer acoustic and I realized how much easier it was to play. Suddenly the F chord wasn’t such a monster to hold down.

    I feel like the cheap acoustic absolutely stunted my learning, and possibly caused me to pick up bad habits. But I still have it cause it was my first guitar and kinda like the sound of it. But holy shit, it’s still hard for me to play it


  • I’ve always loved using Linux, but sometimes I just need things to work; so that whatever I’m doing is quick/painless. But as much as I’ve switched back and forth, I keep getting pulled more into Linux, the more I learn about my (personal) technical problems

    Sure, I can fix it on windows… but the more I delve into Linux, the more I begin to understand the underlying principles of all of it. And for a lot of things; the more I learn about Linux, the more I’m able to navigate across multiple OS’s. Learning a little Linux has taught me a metric shit-ton about how computers “speak”, and that knowledge has crossed over to a lot of different applications.

    I still don’t use Linux full-time. But I’m definitely starting to prefer it the more I learn. I hate fighting against locked-out bullshit on windows, when I “just need things to work”. But I still like being spoon-fed sometimes, when I don’t have time/patience… but I now much prefer taking the time to make my computer work for me. I’ve learned a shit ton about computers because of Linux
