How are all the large enterprises faring with the hardware situation?

Our small non-profit were hoping to do a refresh of our workstations this year but that doesn't seem to be happening

[pearl elk]

I like what Intel are doing, releasing worse chips as their new gen 😛

[tulip orbit]

if true, I bet AMD appreciates it too

[normal prism]

Are there solid estimates on when this nonsense will be resolved?

When do they expect more capacity?

[cursive crypt]

The sillicon crisis? Hmm... only specialists will know, afaik could take an year+

Well, it is not so bad, lol. I mean you can have a luck and buy gpu/cpu. Ofc, overpriced.

What I just seen

[median wraith]

I like how people come to my videos and artstation

"Hey make a tutorial about this"

I won't even give you like

[cursive crypt]

Hevedy, are you selling yourself for likes?

[pearl elk]

Happy Birthday @median wraith

[median wraith]

I mean... he could even share or give like

[median wraith]

Thank you

[cursive crypt]

Wait, didn't you get recently again Bday?

Anyway, if not so, have a happy one

[median wraith]

This is one of the cars we craft here, are the last model of electrics

[median wraith]

but my bday is each month

[pearl elk]

Hevedy is hundreds of years old so Im just making up for lost time :)

[median wraith]

xd

[carmine frigate]

left in blender from unreal,. right exported from blender as gltf and open in gltf viewer

those rotations are weird

[median wraith]

yeah I mean

Blender have these rotations because the bones aren't used in other apps as Blender does

[carmine frigate]

this when i import the gltf back in

[median wraith]

lol

yeah I wonder if there could have some fix for this

[carmine frigate]

i think the importer is still broken

[median wraith]

https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/download-our-new-blender-addons

ins't related with the importer

seems like Blender uses Y as axis for bones

and does it differently to the rest of engines

[carmine frigate]

its not just Y, u can swap that

its doin some other stuff

[median wraith]

did someone bought in the marketplace something recently ?

oh thats really cool

I can't get why some indies pays 100€ to enter stores and other things

but can't pay 50€ of assets

🤖

Depends of the gameplay but I think it can fit @zinc matrix

there is another option

rather than take all the vertical

make the top no visible or something

or choose a smaller bag

and don't put it totally on the corner

so you can make it smaller in vertical rtc

[foggy path]

@zinc matrix that seems fine, many games like The Forest take the entire screen when you enter inventory

[median wraith]

and fit a smaller area

[foggy path]

so imo it's up to how you want it to function

[median wraith]

feel the pain of the vault browser taking mins to process all

is updating plugins

and I can't browse

: )

I think 100 of these 186 gb are from the boy and his kite

[carmine frigate]

i kinda liked how on the WiiU the inventory was on the small screen most of the times, and the minimap

could use a phone for that

[pearl elk]

check ya function before you wreck ya function

is this Donkey Kongs backpack?

Id win every Mario Kart with this backpack 😛

those look like sneaky NOS bottles tbh

its missing acouple of things, duct tape and cable ties 😮

I'll built a 5 axis CNC machine out of sticks

I always find refrigerant on deserted islands

tbh its easier just to salt all your food like crazy

[carmine frigate]

now u can drink ur own piss nice and cold

https://tenor.com/view/improvise-adapt-overcome-bear-grylls-gif-10468556

[median wraith]

I didn't found any decent pack with documents and papers in 3D ?

[carmine frigate]

did u try google docs?

[median wraith]

will have to do it myself

[median wraith]

https://tenor.com/view/pedro-monkey-puppet-meme-awkward-gif-15268759

[carmine frigate]

wasnt there some free libary level or something?

[median wraith]

mmm

Actually now that you say it

there is a library everyone uses but

I don't have it (?)

[carmine frigate]

me neither i think

ive seen it used on a whole bunch of stuff tho

[median wraith]

I need some papers and docs

like the ones you have in house

but can't manage to find such things

all there are elder scrolls books

[carmine frigate]

mayB look at the edith finch stuff

bunch of rooms with general stuff

Edith Finch: House and Common Areas

bunch of books

[median wraith]

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/the-bookworm-experiment-library-scene

This one looks really cool by the way

[carmine frigate]

yea for 15$

real decent

ive seen packs with 3 rocks and a crap tree for 15

[median wraith]

yeah I actually spend a bit more in packs that are kinds meh

mmmm could be

[carmine frigate]

yea i think thats it, how many can there be? 😛

you have enough books now?

[median wraith]

nope because aren't books what I need

XD

I need documents like then ones you could have in a car etc

alike this

na I need a full detailed model

lol

computing shaders you know

[carmine frigate]

search for office

[median wraith]

oh I got one thats a 100% sale

but have no papers

😂

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/office-medley

Epic had a guidelines to upload images each one upload whatever they want

this is so noise I can't even see the assets

[carmine frigate]

pricey but a lot of assets

[median wraith]

the basic office one is the best one

as have what I'm looking for

[carmine frigate]

Workplace Vol. 1

[median wraith]

but too expensive for couple papers

[median wraith]

na that just have a plain paper and a pen

[cursive crypt]

I think I invested well this sale. Just 5 euro.

[median wraith]

https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/big-ring-binders-a86e73d90a784bc0bb571865c7cb4e21

man

this days this cost even more than a real one

😂

[carmine frigate]

there is an office scene in free for the month 😛

it also has a binder like that 😛

[median wraith]

there is even a 20€ one

[median wraith]

what you purchased ?

[cursive crypt]

A plugin which renders the thumbnails of the widgets as what their content is actually 🤔

[carmine frigate]

ow that does sound good for 5$

[median wraith]

I purchased a thing that isn't costly at all

[cursive crypt]

What?

[median wraith]

12ms postprocessing blur

[cursive crypt]

Hmm... well, thats yours final 12 msec, they should be worthy 🙂

[median wraith]

nope is 12ms

on empty scene

just with this

well now is optimized

5ms total postprocessing

[cursive crypt]

That better.

You disabled what?

[median wraith]

I reduced the permutations

the loops and that less quality but

[carmine frigate]

the books didnt fit ur style so now u just blur everything?

pretty smart

[median wraith]

lol

when you do that

you can put my filter

after drink

[cursive crypt]

The things I have seen o0

You wanna break the system, huh? Evade taxes?

[carmine frigate]

[cursive crypt]

Auto-saving on each tick.

[fathom wadi]

What makes you think we aren't reliving our lives over and over anyway? There has to be some reason I can't get a fucking break. Probably past lives, or maybe I need to do something different next time. Here's hoping.

[pearl elk]

I remember my past lives, they wernt the same

[fathom wadi]

when I was 4 my mother drove us to visit my father who was working as a chef in a british army camp. As we were getting close I said "I remember when I lived here. I used to live in a house with a big white door and played with the toys in the hall". As we arrived I said "That's the house".
My mother was always convinced I had lived before because I detailed other things about the house. It turns out the place was a residential home for army officers.
Personally, I think I probably recited from osmosis or something because kids have a tendency to do that to impress people.
That being said, energy never dies, it only dissipates. When you burn something, it doesn't disappear, it changes, evolves. There is no reason to believe that we are anything other than life in waiting for the next.

[foggy path]

That type of reasoning seems to suggest that literally all energy is life

because how do you differentiate the electrical pulses in brains from other kinds of electricity

[fathom wadi]

you don't. You just live life and try not to think about it because it will depress you

if I try to fathom why I am here, I have an easy answer. My kids. But if I didn't have the kids, my answer would be "God hates me"

[pearl elk]

it takes energy to create code

therefore... code is life 😮

[foggy path]

heh

[fluid bloom]

it takes energy to create anything

light for example 😛

[pearl elk]

it takes energy to destroy anything too

[fathom wadi]

you can't destroy anything, only change it's form

how cool would it be if at the point of death, after you have had your life flash before your eyes, the secrets of the universe open up and it turns out, it's just math without a need for comprehension. And all the times you ever got stuck in maths and copy/pasted the solution from StackOverflow was justified. Then you pass on with a smile.

[pearl elk]

so if you cant destroy anything you cant create anything either

therefore, we should all just quit and go home 🙂

[fathom wadi]

"I am God. You had a good life. You acted in good faith."
"Yes and I worked very hard to understand the maths"
"Maths? Hah, even I don't understand it all. I mean, look at the duck-billed platypus. You think I did that on purpose?"
"shit... shoulda been a Bhuddist"

[foggy path]

lol

[fluid bloom]

what about decay over time? 🤔

[foggy path]

I do find it quite interesting that most religions seem to function largely in the same way

There's one or multiple deities, there's a bad place and a good place

Although it also does somewhat seem that humans have a tendency to try and explain everything, and that stuff comes up when they can't

(compare to magic)

[pearl elk]

decay is a religious deity

[fathom wadi]

@fluid bloom pretty sure science taught us that decay is a transformation not a removal. In music it taught us that most songs end on a fade out 😄

[pearl elk]

you need coins for the ferryman to get to the underworld

they might accept bitcoin these days

[fathom wadi]

nope only non-fungible tokens. They considered fungible ones but there's the whole "who really owns it?" and "but we can apply faith to exclusivity" deal so....

[pearl elk]

I think if we try hard enough everything is fungible

Plus: Guaranteed customers in the US government.
Minus: They will be your only customers.

[soft night]

well all in this conductor chaos it maybe its helpful

[regal pecan]

Ah, 2020 seemed so hopeful at first. (Edit: wonder if this looks better)

"In the second half of 2020, AMD will double their 7nm orders making them TSMC’s largest customer of 7nm chips according to some forecasts."

45nm is probably still popular, if not 65nm. If Intel can offer its 14++*+&% process, or its 10nm process competitively with that, then they might scrape some bottom-barrel customers in the appliance market and also save a few gigawatts of power in the process.

https://www.pcmag.com/news/intels-7nm-pc-chip-will-arrive-in-2023-using-tsmcs-tech

So Huawei uses 45nm for smart TVs and 5nm for smartphones.
I want a 5nm-built GPU. (I'd take 7nm too....)

[soft night]

some car makers suffer right now too as cars have computers too

[regal pecan]

I'm surprised the cars need something more than an integrated GPU. Dashboards must be fancy.

[pearl elk]

I think what Intel might be hinting at here is chiplets

they'll make the crappy 14nm part at Intel and just call the 7nm TSMC part Intel as well since its all packaged at Intel lol

[pearl elk]

Its not just dashboards, its the control unit for the engine, security etc

no ones cracked the C8 (Corvette) encryption yet so to break the world record they needed an additional 2 control units to get the twin turbos boosting right

they dont want you messing with cars for acouple of reasons, main one being liability if you boost it beyond recommended settings, it can even impact the onroad safety rating. So yeah, far more techhy than you might think these days, not many people doing hand tuner NAS Cars

considering I know someone who paid $35k for a 1970s Holden I can see why most people go with newer cars 😛

[regal pecan]

Everything you save on an old car comes back at you in maintenance. I suppose you could do it yourself, but then you'll hear opportunity cost laughing...

[pearl elk]

Well you certainly cant hand tune a car as good as you can with a computer and a dyno

[regal pecan]

Surely you don't need a GTX 1660 to do that though.

[pearl elk]

super easy to adjust things like fuel mixtures and you can have varying rates of mixture depending on RPM, cant do that without a fuel management system on modern ECUs

well to render a decent 3d GPS you might want a 1660

personally I feel like that sort of thing is old tech, that heads up display and AR in the windscreen is the way of the future

[regal pecan]

"decent" That 3D GPS better have PBR and dynamic lighting and atmospheric simulation then!

Ah yes, the AR windscreen. Better run that at 240hz with (eye focus monitoring --- what's the word again?)

[pearl elk]

foveal rendering

if I could spell 😛

[regal pecan]

I was thinking eye tracking but luckily foveal requires the former

Since the windscreen doesn't move with your head, you have the change the view vector to compensate

[pearl elk]

yeah its a mix of the two, eye tracking and rendering only what you need to based on the eye tracking data

[regal pecan]

So actually I should've been thinking of head tracking.

Turn that prius into an F-35.

[pearl elk]

F35 and modern tank helmets have the ability to see through the body of the vehicle

[regal pecan]

That would be perfect on today's trucks. You could see the people you're running over on the sidewalk.

[pearl elk]

That would be really cool for cars since the A pillars can be super frustrating sometimes

What really freaks me out though is the thought that cars with nightvision wouldnt need lights

[regal pecan]

If only nightvision worked that way. "Light amplification"

[pearl elk]

just standing there, cant hear a thing and wooooosh, electric car

yeah but they can amplify parts of the spectrum humans cant see

[regal pecan]

That must be how moths feel when I run by.

[pearl elk]

it would be good for not attracting bugs and other animals, kangaroos in particular get mesmerised and run towards lights sometimes

my high beam light bar is bright enough to signal aliens lol

[regal pecan]

If we don't put an AR windscreen on a Prius and turn it into a wingless roo-killing F-35, does it still need the 1660?

[pearl elk]

it needs a Navi 23 minimum

[regal pecan]

hissss

[pearl elk]

hey both my CPU and GPU are 7nm, well for the most part

[regal pecan]

My CPU is 14nm and my GPU is ... 28nm maybe?

[pearl elk]

I will welcome you to the club in acouple of years but I'll probably be on 3/5nm by then 😛

28nm, is that a 980?

[regal pecan]

I can be on 5nm now... it just appears I need to buy a huawei phone.

[pearl elk]

or a Mac lol

[regal pecan]

A 7770 1GB. It runs youtube. ^_^

[pearl elk]

well I can recommend 1660, pretty beasty cheap card

[regal pecan]

There ARE games it plays, but it's really more sporting to torture it with shadertoy

And shadertoy makes me feel better when someone asks "Why can't my 2080 Ti run this shader" and I'm cruising at a cool 0.6 fps.

[pearl elk]

hey you can run the vertex shaders in Q3 just fine 😛

[regal pecan]

I'm not sure openGL 1.0 had vertex shaders

[pearl elk]

all I know is I can run UT3 at 300-500fps lol

[regal pecan]

I had a theory that UT3 looked like crap because its bloom shader had a fixed kernel that was too large for the resolutions of the day

would probably look alright in 4k

[pearl elk]

I use the muted post process, the game itself doesnt look bad but collision issues in maps still persist

I just wasnt expecting to get such high FPS, I knew it'd be fast but not 1200-2000fps in the menus fast lol

maybe Epic should rewrite the launcher in UIScene haha

[regal pecan]

Maybe it should! No, wait, it's already a power virus.

https://www.theguardian.com/games/2021/mar/24/australia-urged-to-move-on-from-moral-panic-over-video-games-after-disco-elysium-banned

[pearl elk]

I put in my say on the ratings boards view of drug use in games, its totally unfair compared to film depictions. Heath Ledger was in a movie called Candy, it won awards but no we cant show drugs in games

If we went by their rules Saving Private Ryan would be banned because of the scene where they give the medic guy alittle more morphine

It even got me thinking that why theres no ratings past 18+, maybe we could use a 30+ rating for people who are old enough and wise enough 😛 just seems odd to have the ratings cap out at roughly 1/4 of a persons life span

[cursive crypt]

Drugs, alcohol and killings are fine in the movies for 18-

Sex, no 🤔

[pearl elk]

you can write about sex in a book all you like, as long as its only words... no rating

[cursive crypt]

Yooo what the fuckkk (apolpgize me)

I have a deadline in 1 hour

And my project absolutley randomly decided to just not show up on my monitor anymore

There is the icon in the tasklist but the project doesn't show up

WHHHHY??? WHYY NOW UNREAL??

restarted pc and all it just doesn't open anymore

1000h in this engine and this happens just now 1h before deadline

I opened 2 instances of it and was now able to click maximize in the tasklist 😰

[dense stratus]

is it open ok now?

[pearl pewter]

yeah

but how and why

[ancient hornet]

clic the icon on the task bar then touch nothing else

press Alt+Space

that should open a popup menu, if so select the option to move the window

then press some arrow keys to start moving the window

[pearl pewter]

ah yeah that would have fixed it thanks!

[ancient hornet]

then you can finish the job with the mouse

Alt+Space is the magic shortcut for windows that end up outside the screen 😄

[dense stratus]

I'm glad it's working now, sounded super scary 😅

[pearl pewter]

it was 😭 😭

always happens before deadlines

[ancient hornet]

for more recent windows versions (and maybe for windows that don't even have that menu if it's possible?) you can replace alt+space step with the windows key+arrow keys

those have different effects but most should resnap the window to the screen

Thanks for replay you mean CIA or FBI or Tram building right ?

[cursive crypt]

Can't say. You need to investigate to make sure.

[pearl elk]

Trump tower 🙂

Guggenheim Museum

theres lots you probably wont be able to use especially in Manhattan, perhaps a cheaper city 😛

doesnt work for buildings, its not like cars or guns where you can debadge them and just modify slightly

https://www.inexhibit.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Solomon-R-Guggenheim-New-York-photo-David-Heald-870x580.jpg

pretty distinctive 🙂

[cursive crypt]

Guggenheim turns out to be real name, not an anime for nerds

[pearl elk]

I think if you want to capture a real city you need to capture its features, thats abit difficult if youre going to water it down by making things generic. Those landmarks are a big part of navigation too

cars and weapons work because of the functional aspect that cant be trademarked

[cursive crypt]

Would be fine. Especially for New York and etc. Hollywood decors. People know them.

If not, slap a label.

[fallow finch]

Yes even if he changed the name or details because its close to the real it also could cause a problemo

[carmine frigate]

yea its kinda BS if u ask me

[pearl elk]

well if you notice Hollywood dont show certain buildings too, hell they even have a fake NYC street in LA 😛

[cursive crypt]

Man, they simping all over NYC

[pearl elk]

how much you think X-Men paid to have Golden Gate Bridge? 🙂

like didnt magneto lift that thing?

nah they lifted the real thing mane, I was there

flashbacks of my time in Nam

[carmine frigate]

battlefield vietnam?

i was there

[pearl elk]

they prolly just had a license to use Empire State building, thats all you need for NYC isnt it 😛

rest is all kitbash

but seriously though, sometimes cities do enter into arrangements with entertainment if they think it'll benefit them from a marketing standpoint. Sony & Spiderman is a pretty big combo

[cursive crypt]

Sonyman 🤔

[pearl elk]

They may even have an arrangement which extends to all their Spiderman franchise because of the movies too

[carmine frigate]

They'll just rent videos just like the ninjas and other npc's

:D

[tulip orbit]

gotta make it so they only rent zombie flicks

[foggy path]

possibly!

we don't yet have a system to have customer "preferences" in that way but it's something I've thought about adding lol

[tulip orbit]

all the old guys get the really dirty adult films, young women get romcoms... etc

[foggy path]

we probably can't have adult films, maybe they'll just rent movies about plumbing or hydraulics or something instead

one of our testers did make use of the modding features we added and the procedural movie title generator generated a movie called HUGE and THICC which sounds a bit dubious :D

[tulip orbit]

Well, versions of things like Eyes wide shut, cuties, etc..

[foggy path]

ah yes french art films

But uhm...
How do I go up the stairs to my bedroom when the paint is still wet?

Asking.. for a friend.

with wet socks

is it just me, or are those stairs incredibly steep?

[deep glen]

they quite are, its an old house dating back to 1946

[regal pecan]

I've only just heard about someone doing half the stairs at a time so they can hop and skip up and down.

[tulip orbit]

better yet, do every third stair. get some cardio

er, leave every third

@deep glen Dont forget to put a few coats of varnish, and polish really really well, make sure its nice and slippery

Ah, from primary school to HR, as soon as the bully is threatened they resort to the system.

[fathom wadi]

oh he wasn't bullying or anything. Just a difference of opinion that was so blind I thought I'd call it out and move on at the same time. But apparently a metaphor is too much for some people.

[regal pecan]

Mock violence is transparent, making it easy to moderate. Hence the method: tease someone until they're angry, then report them to teacher.

[fathom wadi]

I don't even own a boat 😄

[regal pecan]

Meanwhile real violence learns quickly that it's better to be subtle and oppressive

Which is why any justice system will repeatedly fail a significant number of victims.

Wonder if that would make a good game design prompt.

A competitive game where the goal of The Guilty is to trick an Authority into punishing The Innocent. Estimated rate of lost friendships is O(n log n).```

[fathom wadi]

You could say games like Syndicate had a great design prompt for it. The Persuadatron was a genius idea and the intro really setup the whole future at some point 😄

receed cyberpunk and you start seeing modern times.

[regal pecan]

Though, in-game the persuadatron somehow also arms everyone with handguns. That could only work in texas.

Hey everyone, just found this discord so sorry if this is a stupid question. Is there anywhere to chat or any videos of industry vets talking about what it was like in early the early 3D days? Around PS1/N64 era? Would love to find videos or even a forum where I could be a fly on the wall and just listen.

[bronze parcel]

i hope epic buys discord

[cursive crypt]

Sounds nice, but very unlikely. They don't seem to invest in non-content business.
Also a big business point for such sale, afaik, is the cost of cloud services. Microsoft be fitting for that. Or Amazon 😅

[bronze parcel]

i've heard they were interested

but microsoft might simply outbid epic 😄

[pearl elk]

so where are we jumping ship to if MS buys? 😛

[sage ermine]

Or amazon

[pearl elk]

yeah I dont really see a situation where any big company buying discord would be a positive

If I thought MS were a capable software company I might think that better linkedin, outlook, github etc integrations with discord could make it better but MS buys its best software these days, it doesnt make the best software.

Its the same with any of em, its digital real estate to them, they are buying up land on the internet so others cant move in

dont give two shits about users and their experience

[regal pecan]

[delicate lark]

well let me think about this, will get back to you in 100 years with my first guess

[median wraith]

and did it caused someone of you anxiety ?

[regal pecan]

Is it even possible for programmers to overthink something? Seems to me they'd underthink it more often.

[delicate lark]

I was definitely anxious after I read it. But was it because of you?

well yes, or no

or maybe

programmers can definitely overthink something

and overengineer oh god

PLS NO

issue is when you overthink 1% of your task and rush the rest 😄

[foggy path]

look at any software written in Java

and/or the Java "enterprise" patterns which overthink everything

[regal pecan]

I thought overengineering is underthinking... but it could be either.

[median wraith]

Well I won't call my case overthink but double check think on time to time cases, usually more about conversations and events than other thing

But I meet the other week a person that have anxiety from overthink I didn't know that happen

Usually the people that overthink does it on the overall tasks of the day and work

were a programmer on this case

are you programmer ?

[delicate lark]

am I good enough to be one 😟 ?

[median wraith]

idk ?

well thats something you have to know what you are others won't define you

:p

[regal pecan]

I think their anxiety makes them overthink.

[median wraith]

uh that's other point of view I bet

[regal pecan]

Anxiety: "What if hackers break in?"

Overthinking: "What if hackers break in through an extremely obscure zero-day exploit no one knows about?"

Overengineering: "What if hackers break break in through an extremely obscure zero-day exploit no one knows about because I didn't add enough superfluous check boxes?"

person 3: hey I asked this 5 minutes ago but got swamped in other questions so im repeating it.
ad infinitum

but yea, i should have made that a bit more clear, sorry

[pearl elk]

Repeating your question doesnt guarantee an answer, people assume theres someone who can answer and youre being ignored but its not the case. Best thing to do is work on solving it yourself, if youre really stuck work on something else and ask again later, maybe when the channel isnt as busy. I think youre all good Luos, demanding an answer is quite rude

looking at an old behaviour tree be like..

[foggy path]

I find them quite easy to parse, maybe I've just organized mine well :P

[carmine frigate]

i havent actually used em a lot

[foggy path]

I think it helps if you use comments around sort of logical sections of the tree, so you can quickly see what part is what

and it also helps to use selectors or sequences just for grouping, so you can give them names for the parts of the actions they represent, same with just changing the labels for things

[carmine frigate]

you use em for stuff that isnt ai behaviour?

[foggy path]

so far just for regular AI stuff

[carmine frigate]

usually i just do some states in bp

never did any advanced ai tho

[foggy path]

mine's not that fancy either tbh but it has a lot of sort of small steps which is easier to coordinate in the BT I think

since some of the tasks require it to wait and such, so you can easily create BT tasks that do that and it doesn't need anything in the BT

[carmine frigate]

might even be able to fix it in the material editor 😛

i think i could make somewhat of a sidescroller in a material 😛

you are just gunna have to do super convoluted stuff for things thats are super easy in a normal sidescroller 😛

that would even be fairly easy

just need to setup inputs and feed em into material

2d collision is possible tho

either with coords or mayB some mask overlap check

if u have a material AND a PP material

you can do all sorts of checks

PP cant go bac to materia ltho

but if you do a bullet in material and enemy in PP u can do pixel checks

Maybe we should come up with more precise idea how it can get involved.

[timid epoch]

Yeah i found it hard since i dont know how much tooling you can actually do in discord

for something like this

i believe slackers would be more like the presentation and results plattform while you would have to use an outside plattform for managing voting, proposing and backing

[cursive crypt]

Maybe it could be just a place for surveying marketplace ideas? Later then transform to fund-me topics - might turn in flame channel tho.

Also #fab kinda can handle that for now.

quitting smoking was easier than I expected thanks to crack cocaine.

[fallow finch]

any better idea ?

[fathom wadi]

@fallow finch yes but unfortunately my rates are worse to look at than that 🙂

[unborn lotus]

what really helped me was skipping on social stuff, like, don't go to the smoke break at work, don't go out for beers, etc for a few weeks, no smoking then it got easier to pass

[fathom wadi]

honestly though, if it works, its not performing badly, and you don't want to frame it in a picture on the wall, let it go 🙂

[fallow finch]

it is custom hour : mins : sec counter xD

[carmine frigate]

basically you stop living cuz of ur health 😛

[fathom wadi]

What helped me give up smoking was vaping instead. I guess some people don't think that is truly quitting but my lungs say otherwise. Plus I can go all day without a vape. I could never do that with the 150 side drugs that cigs produce

[carmine frigate]

you cant really get rid of addictions, just replace em with other addictions

[fathom wadi]

you can get rid of addictions but it takes mental therapy

[carmine frigate]

you get addicted too therapy

[fathom wadi]

yeah

[unborn lotus]

well better than the alternative, I knew at least 2 relatives that died right around 60 years old because of cigs. And they were always going like, I've been smoking since I was 14 years, see, no problems here

[fathom wadi]

the brain is a wonderful tool for manipulation, so if you have the right motivation, the right manipulation techniques, you can make someone do almost anything.

[carmine frigate]

yea stopping with sigs can totally make u an alcoholic tho

[fathom wadi]

They say smoking takes years off your life, but let's face it. It's the ones at the end. When you are truly cynical and tired of it all. When the adult nappies come into play. When hip replacements are the only option left for sitting on your arse in a retirement home where nobody visits you and the orderlies regularly beat you up.

[carmine frigate]

im gunna get a brain transplant

ill be senile in a young body 😛

[fathom wadi]

@carmine frigate I knew an alcoholic who would only smoke when he had a drink. But he was alchoholic so that was most every night. But anytime he quit/went dry, the smokes would stop. Strangest thing.

[unborn lotus]

I don't think that's true, dying at 60 or 70 is not the right time for anyone

[fathom wadi]

depends

I know several people who would be happy to live that long, and some who couldn't bare to live longer

its all about your circumstances

Take myself for example, not that I'm using my morbidity to "win" or anything, but I have spent half of my life studying daily. Expanding my skills and taking interest in life through education. If I were to hit my 60's or 70's and start to get dementia, I'd seriously consider alternative lifestyles so to speak. I don't mean that to sound as morbid as it does, but what you get out of life is subjective. I'm sure some there are many reasons not to exist beyond a certain age.

[tulip orbit]

https://i.imgur.com/U7FTq3q.jpg

[unborn lotus]

yeah, but dementia starts at about 80+ years on average. Here retirement age is 65, so...imagine that, dying before you enjoy a little bit of your retirement years, taking the grandkids to the park, etc

[sullen flame]

What can I ask in the lounge?

I have a question that I haven’t been able to find using google but it’s not Ue4 related

[sinful delta]

ask away

[sullen flame]

Lemme rephrase this so it’s not as confusing. I want to be able to type a statistic like “engine power” in the far left column and have it create “kw/h” in each box within the row after. Rn I’m having to copy and paste =IF(A40= “Engine Power:”,”kW/hp”) each time. How would I go about doing it as described? So I don’t have to constantly copy and paste?

Even than when I copy and paste I can’t just type the number into the box but have to edit the function

Is that in the realm of macros?

[sinful delta]

@sullen flame select one cell with the formula you want, then go to the bottom right of the cell until the cursor becomes a crosshair

then drag the box down

or to the side

it'll clone the formula and update the references

is if your cell is referencing A1, when you drag down the next cell will reference B1

you can change this behaviour by adding a $ in front of the part you want to be static, e.g. $A1, A$1, or $A$1

usually in spreadsheets you can drag out to replicate a lot of things, but it'll try to be smart. if you have a cell with a number or a date, it'll increment it as you drag down

if you don't want it to increment, put the values you want twice, e.g. two cells with "1" in them, then select both and drag to replicate

it'll keep the new values as 1

in your case you could select a whole column and drag it to the right

my turn. I'm getting this when I try to update my engine source checkout by running setup.bat:
Unhandled Exception: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'E:\UE_Source_Debug\Engine\Source\Runtime\Experimental\Chaos\.clang-format' is denied.

I just went and made sure Users had full control of the folder, but it's still happening. that did fix another instance of that happening though

[fathom wadi]

did you run the bat with admin privs?

Im presuming you are on linux tho so this might not be the same thing as windows. I dunno.

[sinful delta]

yup. didn't fix it

[fathom wadi]

wait... it's PP from the club bathroom. I know him ! I mean... I don't goto clubs

[sinful delta]

on windows

as per the drive path 😉

[fathom wadi]

@sinful delta its a strange one because clang usually isn't used to compile on windows unless you force it to

[sinful delta]

odd

can ignore it then?

[fathom wadi]

Im not sure

[sinful delta]

it's under experimental crap then, and the script finished regardless

[fathom wadi]

fair enough then. Probably wont be enabled as a plugin whatever it is

or module etc

but it looks like meta file data to me

like the way git does it

its probably useless unless you actually compile with clang

you know those moments you shouldn't laugh at your own jokes. This made me chuckle.

[sinful delta]

yeah, sounds like it

hahaha

i have a cactus in my garage and it lives on the leftovers of my beerbottles

[fathom wadi]

I once fed a slug and it kept coming back. We used to have such times on washroom floor. Then one day the slug didn't come back and I knew. I just knew.

Slugs are cheaters. Shoulda never hooked up with it

[carmine frigate]

my cactus is pretty cool it has flowers and all that

also it doesnt die when it doesnt get any beer in a while

its a great game. I happened to have a pretty bug free experience though. Just the occassional clipping bug but you expect it from open world games.

[pearl elk]

I had acouple of nasty graphical bugs, one quest blocker, thats about it worth mentioning

Looking forward to testing out AMD Raytracing on it

[fluid bloom]

ugh

some third party is trying to integrate their systems with a rest api we're providing

and the person doing it doesn't even know the basics of how they work

to elaborate: the person doesn't know that if you have some entity foo and they have an associated entity bar, you can refer to the bar of some foo by querying a path like ...someapi/foo/1/bar

bar of foo with id 1

like... how do you not know that when your job is web dev

[cursive crypt]

I have kinda alternative to that card and still haven't played it. Maybe will wait to drop for below 20 EU in 5 years 🤔

[fathom wadi]

@fluid bloom maybe, like most sane webdevs, they just don't care 😄

can anyone suggest me a course on data structures and algorithms in c++.

[pearl elk]

https://www.udemy.com/course/data-structures-and-algorithms-cplusplus-for-interviews/

[foggy path]

udemy pricing is a joke lol

lol did the actual price change

so they're just pricing the "cheap" price and then arbitrarily increasing it? that definitely seems pretty illegal in a lot of places...

I haven't really heard a lot of bad things about the actual content on udemy

even if the pricing's really wonky

probably depends on the course in question though

[timid epoch]

[pearl elk]

Dont read too much into my recommendation guys it was the first hit on Google 🙂

last time i needed a tutorial on data structures the Titanic was still floating 😛

https://tenor.com/view/friends-joey-tribbiani-matt-le-blanc-wink-gif-15694137

[fluid bloom]

that promethean stuff seems pretty neat

I wonder how much setting up it requires up front

I mean "build a meadow" command seems like it wouldn't work without a shitload of semantic information added to the assets themselves

[timid epoch]

i think its immediate benefits you gain only after the training process

so

long term projects

yässs

short term ... well only if they are done by companies that heavily invest into efficient pipelines

[pearl elk]

It seems pretty good but I bet they are showing the best case scenarios. For example when it searched for Glasses how does it know if Im looking for sunnies or cups. Lots of issues with language before you even get into AI interpretation 🙂

[timid epoch]

I think thats part of the teaching process too

so yeah its something you want to have if you are ubisoft

or EA

where you reuse assets

over and over again

to build largeeeee worlds

for us indie devs its only worth if we would start grouping our efforts

[pearl elk]

I think there are alot of assumptions here based on marketing material

In my experience things in the real world tend to work differently to the magical pixie land of marketing 🙂

but aye Im a dev, they could deep dive on code straight up and not lose me

[median wraith]

Man I can't even play with niagara the engine tanks 4GB of VRam

[timid epoch]

reminds me a bit about using atlassian products xD

[pearl elk]

I can certainly see the usefulness, I personally like autocad for its commandline interface, its extremely fast and powerful.

[timid epoch]

Yeah 100% but then imagine how much time initial content management is going to take if you have to review a few thousand assets manually anyway

its more like having a kid grow up with only 1 goal in mind - sort me my data and help me place it in similar ways i did before

at some "age" it will work

but the time to get there

costly

[pearl elk]

I think the issue is these large studios are constantly reauthoring assets so they will look different but are essentially same same

I mean look at CoD, its not like they share the same AR15 across all their titles

theres probably AR15-32843247984=adhuasdfh-AlphaSixFiveZeroNauticalFungusEdition

[timid epoch]

reimport button 😄

problem solved

you could also have a age hierarchy of your assets

if they share the same exact type

[pearl elk]

yeah sometimes you do want variants for different reasons

maybe indoor mesh lodding vs outdoor

[timid epoch]

its not gonnabe that hard to categorize assets by usage in titles

[pearl elk]

personally I think tying lodding to the asset is abit naff anyways so more of an Epic problem 😛

[timid epoch]

I think most titles will move away from lodding in the next few years

[fluid bloom]

@zinc matrix 👋 Hi there, Im ItsCubeTime on github.

Heres the keybinding script ``` {
"label": "Generate Clang database for your open Unreal Engine project",
"key": "alt+n",
"command": "workbench.action.terminal.sendSequence",

    // This generates clang database files for your currently open Unreal Engine project and then copies the generated compile_commands.json to your project dir so Clang can use it.
    // Performing the shortcut basically pastes this text into your currently open terminal (so you will have to hit enter to execute it after running the shortcut)
    "args": { "text": "if (!(Test-Path \"${workspaceFolder}\\.clangd\"))\n{\n   New-Item \"${workspaceFolder}.clangd\"\n}; Set-Content \"${workspaceFolder}\\.clangd\" 'CompileFlags:\n  Add:\n    - -I${workspaceFolder}\\Intermediate\\Build\\Win64\\UE4Editor\\Inc\\${workspaceFolderBasename}';        & '${workspaceFolder:UE4}\\Engine\\Binaries\\DotNET\\UnrealBuildTool.exe' Development Win64 ${workspaceFolderBasename} \"${workspaceFolder}\\${workspaceFolderBasename}.uproject\"  -mode=GenerateClangDatabase ; Copy-Item \"${workspaceFolder:UE4}\\compile_commands.json\" -Destination \"${workspaceFolder}\"" }
    // "args": { "text": "& '${workspaceFolder:UE4}\\Engine\\Binaries\\DotNET\\UnrealBuildTool.exe' Development Win64 ${workspaceFolderBasename} \"${workspaceFolder}\\${workspaceFolderBasename}.uproject\"  -mode=GenerateClangDatabase ; Copy-Item \"${workspaceFolder:UE4}\\compile_commands.json\" -Destination \"${workspaceFolder}\"" }
},```

(And in case you're unsure exactly where it goes) https://u.teknik.io/4nAm3.mp4

Afterwards, pressing alt+N should paste some text into your terminal (only PowerShell will work). Make sure you have a terminal open

(Also I cant dm not send a f request to you if youre wondering why I messaged you here)

my old pc case i found tube slots now as i used back in the day card slot on the back to my rocket looking radiator

[unkempt kindle]

Really random question, but i need help from a native english speaker 😄
What is the mutliple word for Foot/Feet ?

My IDE don't like Feets but it feels kinda correct to me

[pearl elk]

Feet

[unkempt kindle]

Is that really referring to both ?
Might be just my german mind, but it sounds like the "There is 1 feet" form

[fluid bloom]

one foot vs many feet

[pearl elk]

Yeah it is alittle odd because its a pair of feet but also many feet

[unkempt kindle]

Smh, english is too simple for me

[pearl elk]

its like pants, you dont wear a pant 😛

[fluid bloom]

tbh english makes very little sense

at least it doesn't have feminine/masculine/neuter forms for words

😄

[pearl elk]

Im native english speaker and Im still trying to work it out 🙂

pants are just weird though cuz why is it a pair if its only 1?

[unkempt kindle]

In germany we would say "1 Fuß" and "2 Füße" for 1 and 2 feet||'s||

[limpid garnet]

ahhh German the language that feels the need to have 1 word for a double clutch gear box.

[unkempt kindle]

German is at least highly precise

xD

[pearl elk]

I recently found out genii is an acceptable form of many geniuses

[limpid garnet]

well from what I've seen words are just combined into one and accepted as correct so in English it would just be doubleclutchgearbox.

[pearl elk]

needlesslywise

[unkempt kindle]

Ye, also very dynamic since you can just create new words which are valid 😄

this is where Australian comes in 😛

[limpid garnet]

I'm always curious how most languages deal with technological words that are new. Like what is German for blockchain?

cause the French feel the need to come up with their own stuff I believe

[pearl elk]

dont Germans typically use the accepted word, like it would be blockchain wouldnt it

[unkempt kindle]

We do

[fluid bloom]

I'm getting PTSD flashbacks to the irregular verb song we sang in primary school when learning english

[pearl elk]

Russians sometimes do similar too, if theres no translation its just the same as the "english"

[unkempt kindle]

But often we are using the german translation for it which makes it eeeh

"blockchain" == "Blockkette" xD

[limpid garnet]

blockette = little block lol

[pearl elk]

tbh alot of words we call english dont have their origins there anyway, its all a big mix

[unkempt kindle]

Also as last thing before i continue to work.
Would native english speaker kill me if i just use Feets instead of Feet if i wanna refer to both ? xD

[pearl elk]

Feets is actually typical a cutesy version in slang

[limpid garnet]

feets isn't really a word people use

[unkempt kindle]

Alright, feet it is then

[limpid garnet]

foot is singular feet is plural

feats are accomplishments!

[unkempt kindle]

Thanks for helping me out here xD

that much for a 3070??????? jesus idk much bout euro to usd conversion but i bought my 3090 for 1700 USD

[median wraith]

@somber junco are inflated due there are no gpus, should cost about 500 to 600€

[somber junco]

jeez have they gotten that bad? i remember it took me 3 weeks to get ahold of a 3090 when they dropped on the market'

ended up drivin lik 6hours to pick it up for 1700 bucks

[median wraith]

At the end the usd and euros prices are kinda equal because un euros you add the taxes vat included in price thats a 21%

[somber junco]

yea i googled it 1 euro is 1.17 USD

[somber junco]

im glad i got ahold of my 3090 when i did tho its been hella good to me so far
