Only thing that's annoying is certain niche communities are completely dead on lemmy

"the things that made Reddit Reddit years ago, before it turned into generic social media"
Bingo. From a financial standpoint reddit doesn't care about how it used to be. Being generic social media is worth more money to them
How would a fake gun make the sounds? Guess you could add in editing afterwards but the cleanest, easiest and most realistic would always be to use a real gun with blanks I would have thought. But I'm not a movie producer, so idk
Could also be that even if you're able to get similar quality gun shots off a fake gun, it would cost a lot more in production etc
6 years to break even is probably a bit much, maybe 2-3
But it's your choice if you want to use it or not. I'm happy using the app with ads
Also if you look at how terrible the place looks on google maps, you would well believe it only cost 150 pounds 😂 because the guy is running a run down dirty garage lol
Depends a lot on the amount of damage done though. If its a tiny scrape, it would only take a few minutes to fix it
No problem.
Given you did hit her car or scratch it or whatever, 150 pounds is about as little as you could have expected to pay. Whether she fixes the car or not doesnt really matter but I do believe she did it would not make sense to fake an invoice for that.
She could still TRY claim off insurance but given you have written confirmation from her that she fixed it already, I doubt that will happen
I am assuming you are from the US given you state prices in dollars, which may have varying prices to the UK
For a minor scratch I can't imagine the price being 500 dollars or euros personally, I would have imagined it would be a lot less. 150 does seem a little cheap but it really depends on the extent of the damage, if its just a small scratch it could be 150. If its a decent scrape and its deep into the paintwork it will be a lot more
Google play or iOS? Google play is 3 stars i think
Edit: Sorry sync is only for Android not iOS. I think its because of geographical location or device type as another user said
I don't actually know how they do it in movies but from this one example I'm assuming it was industry standard but I could be wrong.
Other movies might do what you said e.g. airsoft gun or fake gun, with edited sounds later
I do find it hard to believe the industry standard is to use real guns with blanks but it may be that way. It's a lot simpler, but obviously more dangerous
And yes guns are very loud, after a gun goes off beside you, you will have a sort of numbing in your ear for a few seconds and you can't hear anything out of it lol
