anyone ever hire a photographer in asia?

[BiggChungus]

I never fussed over my pictures before but people are getting pickier, particularly on tinder. tinder isnt my favorite dating app but it is the EASIEST because if you match you can just immediately escalate, since you already know you beat out 99% of the other men. I like it just because it wastes less of my time.

have you noticed a big difference between professional pictures and cell phone pictures? it doesnt seem to make a difference for me in thailand or vietnam, but in korea (tinder sucks here) I am definitely taking a hit that I never used to take.

what websites am I looking at for hiring a photographer for a few hours in korea/thailand? have you noticed it making a difference?

Stable Diffusion

Most people are too stupid to train a LoRA on their own photographs so there's a slight barrier to entry, which is good. SDXL gens are literally indistinguishable from real photos especially if downscaled.

it definitely captures the look of a DSLR, but it looks uncanny. there are very few results which I would say are indistinguishable. that said, I have no idea what the average femoid thinks is real or fake. it has the 'style' that they're looking for, so, certainly, it would be enough to fool some of them.

does it really work for you? what percentage of women are so stupid they cant distinguish. I have seen teh suggestion before, but I am afraid it would drive away smarter women as much as it would fool others. can you give me an example?

do you train it on your face but tell it to make you look slightly more masculine or something like that?

I know what you're talking about, and yeah, most people do not put in the legwork required to generate an image that feels like real-life. Nor do they have the eye to detect what looks fake. They may also prioritize aesthetics over gritty realism, which is a mistake.

You'll need 50+ high-quality photos of yourself at different angles, with different hair lengths, clothes styles, settings, lighting etc. You can cut corners if you aren't interested in having a more generalized model.

Yeah, you can play around with tags and LoRA weight to make yourself look somewhat more handsome without taking away from the realism too much.

I may write a dedicated guide for this at some point.

It is very difficult to differentiate unless you set aside an hour of time to scour an image for artifacts. Here are some examples of good images from a Flux model called Amateur Photography [Flux Dev]: https://civitai.com/models/652699/amateur-photography-flux-dev

I'm so glad the autists have started to use stable diffusion photos thinking they're smart.

But they're autistic so they don't realize it's super obvious and extremely embarrassing to use ai photos

Less competition for me

Go ahead, waste ur time.


I’m done helping you lot

 

[predeterminism]

I feel like dlsr photographer pics are kinda non nt too.

The ideal mog is just to actually have a life where you go places and do things and get pics in different places

With a photographer ur stuck in 1 Town with 1 outfit and it's bait what ur doing

 

[AlexBrown84]

just have girls take fit pics for you

I always just kinda did this. some places the competition is ramping up. just trying to keep on the top of my game. If you look at some of the women using tinder videos they swipe left on full chads. many women are just too acclimated to perfect pictures. it seems like a useful bullet to dodge

in which country?
i dont think asian countries have that many chads

Yeah, exactly; those videos he’s talking about, I think all of them are with white women in the West lol
Not Asian girls in Asia…

ive seen some shorts about Bali but that's a very unique case

 

[BiggChungus]

not to squabble over details but not even chad matches with one million girls in asia. that still means 99% of girls are swiping left on chad.

again, which asian country?
there's countries with low amount of dating app users, not widely open to date foreigners or low levels of english, which caps your matches (korea and japan for example)
that's more to do with the country rather than the guy being chad and being swiped left

but i have seen guys that are far from chad, get 1000s of matches in the US and europe, and we all know Asia in general is much easier

any asian country. although I am not sure why I aid 99%. I guess I wasnt paying attention.

do the math. the average woman gets more matches than the average chad. but the total number of ALL matches between men and women must be equal.

a necessary constraint of the system is that they DO NOT accept most chads. chads are a much lower percent of the total population. lets say 2%. but if they matched with even just 50% of women, assuming twice as many men use tinder than women, that's still a match ratio of 25x more than the average women. this is simply too much. but you can see in the experiments that super chads get maybe 40% at best and sometimes even much worse.

tnder and other apps have two products. they sell women to normies, and they sell chads to femoids. the first constraint of such a system is that if chads get exponential attention (which they are capable of getting) then they are not giving the attention to foids that the foids want.

the first thing they do is they begin to try to ration out the chads and mix them into the ugly foid pool to increase engagement. it causes chads to lower their standards and give more attention to uglies, and it causes ugly women to up their standards, and this increases engagement on both ends. the end result is that women eventually reject most chads

for the amount of matches between average women and chads to be roughly equal the women ahve to reject like 90% or more of chads.

you haven't provided any video of that happening, where do you see women gettings tons of chads and swiping left?
and even if that's the case, is there any difference between getting 100s of matches vs 1000s? at that point you can't even talk and meet 95% of them
if you are a chad trying to truly get 8s, 9s, and 10s the game you should be playing is Instagram

the algo ranks you by popularity, so the first profiles are chad, and those get 1000s and 1000s of matches
in between they put new users, users using boosts and users with priority likes from platinum

most women dont even match with chad, let alone chat with them and get to meet
it's simply impossible due to the very low amount of chads out there
