I get so frustrated with window's dogwater snipping tool. It takes far too long to get from> dragging the window size on what you want to capture > instantly saves and becomes png on the desktop.

I. Do Not. Need. Anything Else.

I've tried various recommended screen capture softwares and if im honest they either felt bloated or it had FAR too many unnecessary features. If it worked the same way apple's did, it's a two-key command shortcut to freeze and slightly darken the screen, dragging reticle reactivates the region's brightness, releasing instantly saves png to desktop. With another variation (cmd+shift+5 as opposed to cmd+shift+4) if I wanted to screen record a region, rather than just capture.

The differences are, in most (all??) other 3rd party screen-recording apps out there, none of them (to me) seem as utterly brainless/seamless as the native mac screenshot functionality. I'm desperate.

If this is the wrong sub kick me to the curb but I look far better in gold colored jewelry and am wiling to spend hundreds for good quality but I know almost ANYTHING that is plated will eventually rub off and such. I'm not expecting to be able to shower with these or saltwater swim, but I want to be able to wear them semi daily and have the gold color stay intact for years and years.

Are there ANY kinds of alloys or material sciences that can achieve this? How would I even research unique jewelry like this? Or am I truly SOL and need to buy real solid gold rings/necklaces?

Will be in Tokyo and Kyoto in late September and was wondering if any of you fine people had
recommendations for unique clothing shops that would have anything that would fit a slim build 193cm human being.

Was a tad underwhelmed by bitterleaf's offerings this year. I'm looking for some standout classics such as dongfanghong or aofuhou, any interesting sub-varietals, or really any kind of top shelf dancong with complex fruity/sweet/berry notes. Ideally not exceeding $1.25 a gram.

Would appreciate any recommendations <3

Thanks oolong loving friends

Does a lighter exist (torch/soft flame/arc) that produces a kind of ‘half-globe’ shape? I feel like that would be so convenient for lighting cigarettes or joints, to have it hold that consistent ‘orb’ shape. Especially the smaller the chassis was. Would be sick

Staring down Skunk’s menu and am seriously stuck between:

Kabuki sour (your maine plug)
Pineapple zikigai (papermill)
Icicles (hidden forest)
Kiwi sours (stony brook)
Toaster strudel (faraway)

Grabbing likely only one.

As a recent deep-diver of rosin, I'm wondering if I'm storing it correctly for weekly usage.

I'll buy some take it home, throw it in the fridge for a few hours.

I'll remove it a couple hours later to try some, letting it come to room temp for about 30 minutes before I crack the jar.

I'll use a little hot knife tool to scoop some into my pivot, then I'll cap the jar and put it back in the fridge.

I basically repeat this until the jar is done.

I see so many convos about 'stirring' or just letting it sit out room temp indefinitely.

How do I keep the consistency the best it can be?

Thanks folks

has anyone slotted in the original DJ smokey tags into Soma? or has a clean rip of the original?

I love the release version ofc but I'm ITCHING to hear those absurd, perfectly fitting tags. I miss them badly, even if it's in a bitcrushed mp3.

So I make all kinds of tea, mostly oolong and puer.

Being brewing almost exclusively in the gongfu cha style for over 3 years, and I’ve always been kinda embarrassed to ask this stuff—

When brewing in a gaiwan, (this might be dependent on preference or the kind of tea it is), after pouring into your pitcher, do you tilt the lid on the rim to cover the gaiwan for some heat retention but to let the steam escape, to not steep the leaves any further? Or do you fully remove the lid before you start your next infusion? Sometimes it’s an hour or two between infusions, sometimes it’s 15 min.

Another question I have is, when watching gongfu cha content on socials, I often see the person remove the lid and let the boiling hot water hit the lid very quickly before filling the gaiwan. Respectfully, wtf is the point of this? I would think the 10% of the water you’re pouring in would become less hot and not ‘scorch’ the leaves, but all of the rest of the water used to fill the gaiwan is surely hotter? I hope this makes sense. Usually I will let the stream hit the side of the gaiwan first to avoid this, regardless. When I try to use the method described above however, I end up spilling boiling water on my counter and thinking ‘this has to be pointless’.

Would love any thoughts on these or guidance.

Cheers folks <3

Im down to half a cake of bitterleaf's 2017 'eden' manzhaun...it is just DELIGHTFUL.

Any suggestions for younger or middle aged (post 2015?) cakes from this same region that I would love if I liked Eden?

Thanks folks.

Natively or with plugins, I'm wondering how to create a 3D depth/bump map effect (is that what you call it?) with a huge plane/dot grid. Ideally with adjustable properties like random seed of the bumps and the speed of the 'waves', the size/density of the dots and keeping them all sharp whether I zoom in or zoom out.

I'm pretty sure you can achieve this somewhat* easily, I've searched around youtube but only found bits and pieces of 'similar' effects. Especially if I wanted to wrap the dots around a (real or 'fake') 3D shape such as a sphere and manipulate it like that.

If this is easier to do in a 3D software, any best practices to achieve this would be very appreciated.

Thanks fellow artists

I honest-to-god really hope he drops that this year. Unbelievable vibe. I have had it playing nonstop for a week.

Really been digging the hell out of Matthew Halsall’s music and everyone on Gondwana Records- such evocative, soulful, passionate, introspective sounds.

I really like the lively sounding ones, (coming from discovering I enjoyed jazz from video games and J fusion)

Could I get some artist or track recommendations in any of the styles/genres I’d mentioned above?

Tyvm :)

Anyone have any idea where I could recert my med card under $75? Ideally in the city proper or online. Tired of getting shafted by leafwell.

Thanks friends
