If you actually hit her, she may no respond as you imagine.

deep copper
#

or she might

zinc matrix
#

yeah but the text was an output of Lutriq

deep copper
#

don't judge

verbal junco

do it

zinc matrix
#

she does not act violently

*Per Poly Collision

zinc matrix
#

it was more on

quasi mantle
#

Except the latter is for skeletal meshes, and the former is for static mesh

celest musk
#

just that one is for static, the other for skeletal meshs

quasi mantle
#

What are you, a statue? lmao

zinc matrix
#

you get close to the ladie
grab her attention with your hands, point one of your fingers to the ground and the turn it to the roof,
smile and ask if she is single

#

boom, a nice try

#

take less than 5 minutes

#

if there is 25 ladies on the club

celest musk
#

dafuq did i just read?

zinc matrix
#

it is less than 2 hours of tries

quasi mantle

#

OOOR

deep copper
quasi mantle
#

Or at least music that can make her nod in rhythm

zinc matrix
#

just gets close to her and dance on your own, soon your bodies will be together if you have enough energy

deep copper
#

so you can skim through really quickly

zinc matrix
#

that would creepy out people

#

maybe if she is alone, with no one

#

she will be a weirdo, so no problem

#

(considering that you are one to do these things)

deep copper
#

just ask them if they will marry you first

zinc matrix
#

no that is for discord

deep copper
#

that's quicker

verbal junco
deep copper
#

if they just wanted to dance, you just wasted more time

zinc matrix
#

imagine finding that ladie

quasi mantle
zinc matrix
#

she gets close to your protected ears (use ear protection on clubs, music is too loud) and shouts "i am a game dev. too, lets hang out"

celest musk
#

and then she tells you how awesome unity is

quasi mantle
#

Despite I actually like idol anime, I can't (really) dance

zinc matrix

depending on the type of club you go, just imagining you are dancing is enough

Drumming is more of my forte tbh

we should hang out together sometime

deep copper

be careful they may massage you

celest musk
#

didn't you just marry brother?

deep copper
#

we weren't married on paper

#

this is expected

zinc matrix

show him your eggplant

deep copper

only on paper

zinc matrix

there is no eggplants ๐Ÿ˜

celest musk

looks like it hurts to eat them

verbal junco

is it squishy

zinc matrix
deep copper

it's red

or pink

zinc matrix

it is bubble gum banana

deep copper

it's something

zinc matrix

oh you can not even differentiate

#

no way we will marry

deep copper

teach me the difference <3

marriage isn't needed

actually cringe is related to pain

my compensation..

deep copper

i think you can gain even without pain

zinc matrix
deep copper

pain is everywhere, just too low to see

zinc matrix

you gave me attention when i should learned that i was bounded to be ignored

#

i want to be cool and hang with cool people like CE

although Ben and b1 are nice

deep copper
zinc matrix
#

okay that may read a bit rude

deep copper
#

but political topics and irrational moaning gets their attention, even if negetive attention

zinc matrix

even my parents do not give me enough attention

i bought these controllers to play overcooked and they ditched me saying it was boring

all in all it's a nasty process

verbal junco

i was not marry with a girl i would adopt you

deep copper
celest musk
#

the carbon stuff, and brother1 and lutriq's stuff

#

both

pearl elk
# deep copper is there a big difference..?

depends on the type of carbon youre after, you can lay it up like fiberglass but its better to forge it through pressure or use infusion to reduce the weight of the epoxy in the part

#

resin is the heavy part so more effort is put into reducing that

deep copper
zinc matrix

problem is, i was cringe and you went in

well this guy is making a boot... USA calls it a trunk or some silly name

deep copper
deep copper
pearl elk
#

Im working on modifying a rear bumper bar to fit a diffuser

celest musk
#

damn that looks pretty advanced

#

i thought of small parts for interior

#

but he made a whole trunk which looks perfect

zinc matrix
pearl elk
#

this guy has a good setup but you can do this in a more simple space

zinc matrix

the ones welded with love make me produce oxytocin

deep copper

#

i wonder how many working hours that video are

pearl elk
#

a diffuser is the part on the bottom of a car bumper that looks abit like a wing, if you know what a scoop is its basically one for the back of the car to direct air

deep copper
celest musk
#

expansion foam is bad

deep copper
zinc matrix
#

i do not feel blue anymore

#

i wish sharing feelings was made by a command like

#

/brother1 2+ love

#

the math of relationships would be so neat pitched to a good standard

#

@pearl elk do you think you can make a bicycle frame out of carbon?

deep copper
celest musk
#

if you cut expansion foam, it still has all those nasty holes/air which was included while it dried

deep copper

deep copper
pearl elk
#

yeah you can do asphalt easy enough

deep copper
pearl elk
#

carbon fiber is expensive though compared to aluminium which itself isnt cheap either

zinc matrix
#

in a 10 year period?

celest musk
#

also if you do the frame yourself, it will most likely break at some point

#

even the professional manufactured ones break often

pearl elk

at higher speeds the diffuser will definitely increase straight line stability

aloohmhinuhm

celest musk
#

yea those are mostly affected by it, i guess if you just have a racing bicycle, it doesn't happen that often

zinc matrix
#

but in theory, a carbon frame used for commuting should outlast the owner

celest musk
#

but downhill/mtb i wouldn't advice carbon frame

#

the force on the frame can be too much

verbal junco
pearl elk
#

thing with downhill is youre on the edge of a cliff, near a big tree or something else to smash into so the bike falling to bits is the least of your problems

celest musk
#

depends on where you ride

zinc matrix
pearl elk
#

you can get carbon kevlar composites which are really tough

celest musk
#

well mtb/downhill also includes jumping

zinc matrix
#

still, very difficult to do such a thing

deep copper
#

still trying to process this stuff, but a good diffuser can
increase speed gain rate,
max speed (?)
fuel efficiency

pearl elk
#

suspension geometry is super important

zinc matrix
#

and how you land

#

yeah but maybe a chromoly steel frame is the best option nowadays

celest musk
#

steel is too heavy

#

usually you go for aluminium

zinc matrix
#

steel is real

celest musk
#

steel is the best because it's not as hard as aluminium

#

in terms of resisting forces

pearl elk
#

aluminium is great stuff just difficult to weld

zinc matrix
#

aluminium has fatigue

#

not enough for my machine-legs

pearl elk
#

they dont even use chromoly in car engines ๐Ÿ˜›

#

thats for motor racing spec stuff

verbal junco
pearl elk
#

most car flexplates are just regular steel, same with oil pump gears so they just shatter

pearl elk
#

too expensive, they only use aluminium parts to save weight, if they could theyd use regular steel

deep copper
#

now stuff is going over my head, i guess i reached my complicated comprehension limit for today

pearl elk
#

I need to know this stuff for building exoskeletons ๐Ÿ˜›

deep copper
#

how many years have you been studying these things for?

pearl elk
#

Materials, not very long at all. Mechanics, alot longer

#

bout 8 months

zinc matrix
#

i heard they are easier to model and print with Blender

pearl elk
#

I can tell you all about the benefits of LiFePo batteries if you like ๐Ÿ™‚

deep copper
#

and how far have you gotten to actually making it? did you procure the materials already?

pearl elk
#

Graphene, the material to end all materials

deep copper
pearl elk
#

yet Ive never seen it ๐Ÿ˜›

deep copper
#

hey lifepo sounds better overall

zinc matrix
#

and have a ceramic coat around the pack?

deep copper
#

okay there's also some downsides

pearl elk
#

still not so good when punctured but Ive seen lithium batteries which dont react when shot with a bullet

verbal junco
deep copper
pearl elk
#

mind you, could just put the battery in a kevlar jacket ๐Ÿ˜›

celest musk
#

the problem is, you don't know where it's safe to hit in the first place

deep copper
verbal junco
deep copper
pearl elk
#

normal lithium batteries turn all fizzy and spew hot crap everywhere, just what you want strapped to your waist ๐Ÿ˜›

zinc matrix
#

๐Ÿ˜ chances are not that big hm?

deep copper
#

does it goes boom?

celest musk
#

battery in enclosure, and with some mechanism to release it quick when it fails

#

and two of them, unless you want to be stuck in place with that exoskeleton ๐Ÿ˜„

zinc matrix
pearl elk
#

chances are higher in exoskeleton applications, cant just drop primary power source and leave the user stuck

zinc matrix
#

your real name? Johnson Kript?

celest musk
#

that's why you need 2 cell units

deep copper
zinc matrix
pearl elk
#

obviously exoskeletons will be more purpose built, there wont be a one size which fits all

zinc matrix
#

it is a game thing or real world stuff?

pearl elk
#

well not for military application thats forsure ๐Ÿ˜›

deep copper

ummz both

you wanted to do stuff to the moon ?

zinc matrix
#

just a short film

around 15 minutes

deep copper

ponki recently made a moon

zinc matrix

do you know how they coloured this film?

#

they took it frame by frame and painted

deep copper
#

no idea

#

that's, effort

zinc matrix
#

that is old cinema

deep copper
#

they still do go frame by frame and paint stuff

#

just, digital

zinc matrix
#

i heard knowledge people hold great technique on those

deep copper
#

i guess the amount of control that has is Insane

night grove
#

They have what are essentially exoskeletons

#

And joke that in military application they are essentially body bags

is this moon for the constellation thing you were doing? the day night cycle

because you have been working quite intensively on this moon ๐Ÿค”

feels that jazz of intense cadence on scales and that is it

nothing else more

i mean, cool, rrand():

the moon plays smooth jazz?

yes if it was a plushie it would definitely be popular

My brain is broken this week

#

This week I learned first had social stress can adversely affect your working memory

#

Or in more practical words, stress makes it so I can't code

#

๐Ÿ˜ข

verbal junco
#

can't deny vampires have good fashion sense

deep copper
#

stress is more terrifying than people make it out to be

#

it makes you absolutely useful and miserable

I had to go to small claims court this week. Though I won, I'm a miserable mess still.

#

Judge Judy?

deep copper
#

they are usually "cool"

night grove
#

Nah the judge was much cooler than Judge Judy

#

I just messed up in presenting my case, so I only got half of what I asked for

#

Meaning I'm still out a few grand

#

The stress is costing me WAY more than that though

#

(It's been an ongoing issue since last year)

verbal junco
night grove

#

vampires be like

night grove
#

So it's not like it was an injury case or anything

night grove
night grove
#

But I got stage fright and worded things poorly

deep copper
verbal junco
night grove
#

The judge for some reason thought I wanted to keep the goods, so only awarded me half the value

deep copper
#

did you get to keep it then?

night grove
verbal junco
#

what were the goods anyway

dark sequoia
#

THE GOODS

night grove
#

Desktops for sit stand desks

verbal junco
deep copper
zinc matrix
night grove
#

The desktops are so warped my mouse can't track properly on them

verbal junco
night grove
#

Now I have to decide if it's worth appealing to try to get the other half, or give up

verbal junco
deep copper
verbal junco
night grove
verbal junco
#

and let them do the wording?

night grove
verbal junco
night grove
#

Basically, when a vendor sells you something it must do what you say it does

#

A pen must write

#

For example

deep copper
verbal junco
verbal junco
deep copper
#

turn on i guess

night grove
#

There are 3 tops (one for my computer, one for my wife, and one for our VR rig)

#

All 3 are warped so badly you can have a mouse rock back and forth like a teeter totter

deep copper
#

if there's a misunderstanding about you keeping the goods so you get half only, i guess you can clarify, but legal matters are definitely a pain for that simple stuff,

verbal junco
#

I have no idea what that means

#

but if it's broken

#

sue

#

SUEEE

night grove
#

That's what the case was this week

#

The judge left it open to me to provide legal justification to get the full amount. But his wording was very legalize.

#

I'm trained in some legal stuff, but my brain seized and I didn't understand what he was asking.

verbal junco
deep copper
verbal junco
#

like why would you attempt to even do any legal writing yourself

verbal junco
#

that's a big no no

night grove
#

But for some reason ended up WAY more

#

It's a big cluster F

verbal junco
#

even so

#

never do the legalese yourself

night grove
#

The judge was very fair. And I had made the proper legal notes to refute the defense

#

I just F'd up

deep copper
#

you tried your best, it's okay, but maybe try getting the lawyer to work now, also, is the price of legal stuff higher than compensation now?

verbal junco
#

it's much easier to get yourself shot in the foot for stuff like this

night grove
#

Costs 1.5k to get a lawyer to represent you in court

#

At best I could get 2.4k back

#

May not be worth the stress

verbal junco
night grove
#

But I can't get my stupid brain to let go

deep copper
night grove
#

I'm sr level software engineer

#

So I can earn 6 figures at the right job

#

So I really shouldn't be stressing about it

#

It's so stupid

verbal junco
#

tbh the onus is on you to get the right lawyer for the right thing. if your lawyer didn't do squat that's pretty bad, but IMO you should do the research here

night grove
#

I contacted him back in september

#

And had to nudge him every step of the way

#

Weeks would go by and I'd ask him how the next step was going

#

"Oh I promised that? I'll get right on it."

verbal junco
night grove
#

Well not exactly like that, but was really annoying

verbal junco
#

seriously

#

if they're not taking your case seriously

deep copper
verbal junco
#

no point keeping them on retainer

#

you can't let stuff like this slip

night grove
#

I did most the legal research on my case

deep copper
#

but money isn't all it's about

night grove
#

I have an MBA, so I have taken a few legal classes

#

So for me it's kinda like, an insult to my pride that I f'd up

verbal junco
night grove
#

I shouldn't be so harsh on myself

deep copper
#

you spent time, days which are gone, can't return, and this implies if you get cheated again, you have no way to do much, you are on your own, that is vexing

night grove
#

I've spent easily over a week or two stewing on this whole thing all together

#

Which costs me WAY more than the case is worth

#

I need to learn to let go

deep copper
#

yeah, you are a sr level software engineer, not a sr legal court lawyer

night grove
#

In other news, I'm really close to sharing a destruction system I've been making for my game

#

It's like Apex / Chaos, except performant enough for VR

deep copper

that's good, did you actually have time to work on it with all that?

This week I'm doing performance analysis to see if I've done enough to get it running on the Quest

I've been working for myself since sept

verbal junco
# night grove I shouldn't be so harsh on myself

I didn't say that so you should be hard on yourself, all I'm saying is that you can't expect to do everything yourself in cases like this. I know it's considered the "manly" thing to do, but really finding the right people for the right job is the best skill you can have

deep copper

I have a damn good accountant

especially if you're a business owner I'd say

#

And I need to start outsourcing art

#

I have a bunch of marketplace assets rn, but I really need unique stuff

verbal junco
#

but I'm a random existence on the internet, so take what I say with a grain (or mountain) of salt

night grove
deep copper
#

sometimes, it's easier to miss simple things

night grove
#

And the fact that you are willing to talk to another "random internet existence" shows concern

deep copper
#

vision gets clouded with other goals or stress you know ? it helps to clear your mind with this

verbal junco
night grove
#

I was reading yesterday that social stress in particular clouds working memory

#

Working on my game day in the basement day in and day out without any social exposure means negative things like court are WAY more impactful to my mental health

why is it old people don't understand computers? i hate them.

verbal junco

what a fresh take

ocean parcel
#

a relative of mine just said 'don't i get bored of sitting at home all day doing nothing', like lol, this isn't 1960's you don't have to work in a shop as a job anymore, you can earn money with computers.

especially with this pandemic wfh stuff. i don't get how they haven't adapted yet!?

I used to suffer from depression induced by tinnitus

deep copper

the "eeee"?

night grove
#

I got it (the tinnitus) under control by doing... dental work!

#

Yeah

#

I still have it, but it is much more quiet

deep copper
#

how does, dental work help?

night grove
#

So I guess you could say dental work fixed my depression

#

In my case, I had a really bad accident a couple decades ago that messed up my teeth

#

It caused mechanical misalignment of my jaw, which in turn caused mechanical stress on my eardrums

#

I actually ate a 2x4

deep copper
#

i read somewhere that the more you focus on it, the more alert your body becomes about it and considers it a threat, it increases the sound more in your head, and this feedback loop increases,

night grove
#

When I talk or think about it, I hear it more

deep copper
#

sorry to make you aware of it ๐Ÿ˜“

night grove
#

For me it was especially perceived as a threat because my tinnitus sounds very similar to the whine of a computer fan that is failing

night grove
#

I've heard 1/10 people have tinnitus and there are hundreds of potential causes

#

Like depression, it is not really well known

#

As in, there is a lot of medical details NOT known about either

deep copper
#

that sounds tough

night grove

Kinda turns into "Well lets try this cocktail and see if things get better or worse"

The ears are such a sensitive "device"

Most people with severe tinnitus go through a depression and suicide phase

That is the scary part of severe tinnitus

Some of the medical interventions for tinnitus lead to chronic vertigo

Which would be like a million times worse than tinnitus

what's a slavism

fathom wadi
#

it's strange we have so many languages but English tends to be the most spoken second language. So why not just make that the primary language and be done with it? No need for google translate then. It will save many trees.

verbal junco
#

ah fair enough

#

let's all use toki pona then

#

everyone can speak toki pona

#

Toki Pona (rendered as toki pona and variously translated as 'the language of good' or 'simple talk'; IPA: [หˆtoki หˆpona] (listen); English: ) is a philosophical artistic constructed language (philosophical artlang) known for its small vocabulary, simplicity, and ease of acquisition. It was created by Sonja Lang, a Canadian linguist and translato...

zinc matrix
#

i think it is almost impossible to escape as creating an entire new artificial language would kill the purpose of having a second language in common between humans (aka. it HAS to be easy to learn)

verbal junco
#

esperanto is also incredibly imperialistic given it's given as a perspective from imperial europe at its height

#

so e.g. east asians would have a harder time getting to learn it

zinc matrix
#

yeah, some countries were not able to teach their own language to kids in a formal way...

#

although i am very sceptical about formalities

#

like using a or an before vowel / consonant

#

that is the type stuff that accumulates over time and make the learn process way harden than it should be

#

but English is pretty decent as a langugage

#

take a sip at Portuguese

i wanted to try getting used to reading kana, so i'd be as fluent at hearing the sounds with the symbols as i am with the english alphabet, but every japanese text i found was just filled with kanji.

#

which i know they use but i thought they might have some like purely kana texts to practise.

verbal junco
#

they do, for kids

#

they'll have kanji words where the hiragana will be mentioned above it

#

so even kids not knowing the kanji can understand the word

#

but, and I really want to stress this, learning kanji alone is kind of pointless

#

learning them as parts of words is so much easier

ocean parcel
#

oh yeah, i was actually quite good at memorising kanji

#

but then i stopped cause i realised i used doing it properly.

#

i was just memorising symbols and what they mean without knowing how they were pronounced.

verbal junco
#

it doesn't help that every kanji is pronounced differently depending on context

#

so if it's part of a word with other kanji, it'll be pronounced like the japanese heard it being said by chinese people way back when

ocean parcel
#

plus they have the kun reading and the on reading, right?

#

one is chinese, one is japanese.

verbal junco
#

but if it's alone in a word, for instance as part of a verb, it'll be read the japanese way

#

that's what I am saying

ocean parcel
#

yeah, it's weird.

verbal junco
#

ah yeah furigana it's called, the practice of putting hiragana above kanji
