I always thought people held phones vertical if they're trying to not be obvious they're filming something.

Just shoot in whatever way best fits the subject and action in the frame. We're not constrained by film projectors any more, so who cares? If your player can't adapt to different aspect ratios without giant bars, then the player is the real problem

If the only way to view videos was on a phone or tablet, vertical video would be maybe be acceptable in rare cases. But, TVs and computer monitors exist, and there are zero cases where a vertical video is better on those screens. If you film vertically than you are guaranteeing that some, if not most, people viewing it will have over 2/3 of the screen be ugly black bars. Phones should film horizontal regardless of how you're holding the phone. Vertical video is a plague and must be stopped.

I don't give much of a gently caress about vertical video since they're all short and I never full-screen that poo poo. A lot of sites just pop-up the video by itself, same as a portrait-oriented document or a photo.

Jastiger posted:Holding a phone vertical for video isnt a sin. Its how you use it to talk, and i see most people text that way. Why the gently caress would you automatically go horizontal? Did you ever look at a human face and notice that the eyes sit next to each other horizontally.

Most vertical video is viral poo poo people snap at the last second when something crazy happens. Idgaf. If movies start using vertical video by all means I'll join in on the bitching.

The main thing is that we all need to agree that that thing where they fill the black space with the video but, like, enlarged and blurred a bit? That's good and solves all issues.

This is the most offensive Tiggum opinion I've ever seen ITT.

I want a phone that films horizontally while I hold it vertically, so I can enjoy a fresh popsicle with one hand while I film my older brother shattering his ankles trying to kickflip into the pool from the roof with the other.

Um, it's your brother's decision and you should be more mad at your family for putting all this dumb pressure on you, not be mad at your brother.

I can understand being personally disappointed at their decision, but it's completely absurd to actually think that their decision is wrong just because it's not what you want. It's like asking out a girl, her saying no, and then saying "But this also affects me! I wanted to date that girl, but by rejecting me she is making my life worse! My parents also want me to get married, so her decision to reject me also negatively impacts them!" Like, the above is actually not even an exaggeration, those two situations are almost completely analogous.

Knew it was the right thread for it. e: Plebian Parasite posted:you should've pointed him to that one e/n thread where you write anonymous passive agressive letters to people in your life, his busted brain problems aren't really an 'unpopular opinion' per say. Glad you can diagnose mental illness based on two paragraphs of me being disappointed by a disappointing situation. You should be working on the new DSM, not wasting your time posting here! e2: and to be clear, I'm not saying that girl should go against her wishes and go out with you, or that they should go against their wishes and have kids just because I want them to. I'm just disappointed and the rhetoric that it's none of my business is complete bullshit. It has plenty of effects. walrusman has a new favorite as of 19:36 on Apr 13, 2017 |

No, having a kid is the most selfish thing you can do, you're putting your own genes over the needs of tons of kids that need to be adopted.

WampaLord posted:No, having a kid is the most selfish thing you can do, you're putting your own genes over the needs of tons of kids that need to be adopted. I consider adoption as "having a kid". Also calling people selfish for having their own children instead of adopting is some fine concern trolling, unless you have done the latter, which, if it is a moral imperative according to you, is always an option, regardless of your ability or willingness to have your own offspring. steinrokkan has a new favorite as of 19:30 on Apr 13, 2017 |

Deciding whether to have children is a selfish decision either way, I think. There isn't anything inherently wrong or hypocritical about a decision being selfish, I think.

My parents also want me to get married, so her decision to reject me also negatively impacts them!" iirc there was a quote in the Idiots On Social Media thread from the "incel" subreddit where someone was accusing a girl of wanting to murder him because she wouldn't have sex with him. His logic was that by rejecting him she was making him depressed and when he was depressed he would consider suicide, ergo she wanted him to commit suicide and by that logic she was a murderer.

They're saying this because either he doesn't have the balls to make enough sperm or she is barren and it's their way of justifying why they don't have children to themselves as they talk about how their career is too important or this world is too cruel to bring a child into but deep down in their heart of hearts they want children as all couples do whether they admit it or not.
