Boris Johnson is the most overtly corrupt and incompetent Prime Minister that the UK has ever had. This is not an opinion, it is statistically and factually accurate.
foggy path
Based on what I've heard about UK politics in the news that seems correct
fleet tangle
Not by a long shot.
mossy nexus
Ah, cool. First up is the lies. It's fine for a MP to lie to the public, politicians do that all the time but it's not allowed in the House of Commons. I won't list all the times here as a- it would take to long and b-others have already done this in the internet land I could dig out a few links if you really want buuut I'm hoping you'll just go with me on this. He's been sacked from at least 2 jobs for lying, and generally being dishonest with a senior lawyer commenting he was known for being dishonest [this was when he shut down parliament to avoid something and was taken to court] He's had blowjobs from his now wife in his office, he tried to get her a position in his cabinet, he's allowed Pitel to continue as HO minister regardless of all the complaints about her, he's been fined by the police once, he's had secret meetings with KGB people, where usually ministers would have official aides present at all times. The last bit was in yesterdays Select Committee, the rest can be easily verified online.
and let's not forget the time he wanted to rewrite the rules, so that his mate didn't get into trouble. His mate resigned as soon as the PM said he was going to do it.
cursive crypt

Tho, I noticed, I dont see issues with the wife's support.

Other than the BJ? 😄 She has no qualifications or experience in whatever job it was, it was essentially just a way of getting a nice little 70K extra bonus
The Times ran the story, then pulled it after a couple of hours. Then people noticed they pulled it, and that prompted it to be looked into more.
fleet tangle
His wife should be the HO minister. 😂
mossy nexus
Anyone other than Pitel should be HO 😄 She's evil.
Someone who can implement a policy which if it was policy when her family came to the UK, would have meant they would have never been let in.. someone who thinks sending people to a country that our own country has been condemning for human rights abuse, is a good idea.

timber viper
I heard "1922 Comittee" played a role in Boris' resignment, is that true?
mossy nexus
Kind of. They were going to hold elections for a new committee on Monday. That new committee was going to change the rules of submitting letters of no confidence to the committee. So he would have been kicked out next week sometime. However, with 57 MPs resigning and those that didn't all told him it was time to go, he had little choice in the matter.
There wasn't a hope in hell his party wouldn't vote against him this time.
His only other option would be to call a snap General Election. That wouldn't work because then his own MPs would have to go out to the public saying "Vote for us!" while simultaneously saying "Our PM is not the man for the job!"
timber viper
At this point I'm more curious of what will happen next month
Will UK change its politics drastically with new government? Will people be more relieved and trusting or more confident on protesting etc
mossy nexus
That, is the question. Will it make any difference? Will the new person be competent? I can see 3 maybe 4 people going for the job. Sunak, Rashid, Gove, and Truss. Pitel would if she thought she could get the support, but imo that would be doubtful.

The factual accuracy of this story is called into question by its similarity to another tale published fifteen years earlier (while Benzoni was still travelling in the Americas) by painter and architect Giorgio Vasari
That whosoever could make an egg stand upright on a flat piece of marble should build the cupola, since thus each man's intellect would be discerned. Taking an egg, therefore, all those Masters sought to make it stand upright, but not one could find a way. Whereupon Filippo, being told to make it stand, took it graciously, and, giving one end of it a blow on the flat piece of marble, made it stand upright. The craftsmen protested that they could have done the same; but Filippo answered, laughing, that they could also have raised the cupola, if they had seen the model or the design. And so it was resolved that he should be commissioned to carry out this work.
and the Columbus story
deep copper
Columbus being at a party with many noble Spaniards, where, as was customary, the subject of conversation was the Indies: one of them undertook to say: —"Mr. Christopher, even if you had not found the Indies, we should not have been devoid of a man who would have attempted the same that you did, here in our own country of Spain, as it is full of great men clever in cosmography and literature." Columbus said nothing in answer to these words, but having desired an egg to be brought to him, he placed it on the table saying: "Gentlemen, I will lay a wager with any of you, that you will not make this egg stand up as I will, naked and without anything at all." They all tried, and no one succeeded in making it stand up. When the egg came round to the hands of Columbus, by beating it down on the table he fixed it, having thus crushed a little of one end; wherefore all remained confused, understanding what he would have said: that after the deed is done, everybody knows how to do it; that they ought first to have sought for the Indies, and not laugh at him who had sought for it first, while they for some time had been laughing, and wondered at it as an impossibility.

In my case, it's used in most the materials in the project...
It's the basis for the #not-chaos-destruction system I'm making
night grove
A large percentage of the level geometry will use it. It's not so bad because you can unpin the wpo when working with it.
deep glen
if its your own system, just add a static value to a variable in lerp/whatever. that way the preview doesnt get this value and shows the mesh correctly.
#hackyworkaround
night grove
if its your own system, just add a static value to a variable in lerp/whatever. ...
Is there a static variable that can be set for only preview?
deep glen
more like, a lerp in your material function controlled by a var.
when your mesh is loaded in your destruction system, set var to 1.
so if it isnt loaded (var = 0), it disables the WPO-stuff, and shows the mesh correctly in the viewer.
night grove
Oh I see. Clever.
deep glen
cheeky thing ive done with weird vfx
night grove
Unfortunately the entire geometry is generated. I was a little disingenuous in saying you just have to unpin the WPO. You also have to put it on the original static mesh.
deep glen
ah, lol

deep glen
yea, no idea then XD

Voronoi fracture with WPO to put the fragments back into place

It's not quite as pretty as chaos but runs around 100x more efficiently (I think?) I need to put it through harder stress testing

Retailing at $4,240 (£2,190), the Happy Hacking Keyboard Professional HP Japan, produced by an affiliate of Fujitsu, is the world's most expensive computer keyboard. Its extreme price is due in part to the fact that its keys are hand coated in Urushi lacquer and then dusted with gold.

you can't even see the letters on that costly keyboard

yeah looks like blank keycaps
deep copper
why would anyone want it blank 🤔
okay it looks much better in a real environment
i would want to press it, but not own it
proud jay
still looks like shit
blank keycaps are kinda cool though
man why they made it in OEM profile
normies

oem?
deep copper
wait there's that much specification ?!
short grove
there's a norm for everything
deep copper
which is the best?

it looks so much nicer
and I find it nicer to typeon
there is no "best"
it's personal preference
deep copper
i see i see

why do you know about this, dieter?
proud jay
so if you don't buy custom keycaps, it's probably OEM
deep copper
were you into keyboard business?
proud jay
why do you know about this, dieter?
cause I built my own keyboard lol
not in the bizz
well more modified than built
deep copper
huh, that sounds, hard
deep copper
i can see why you should need to look into key types then
proud jay
if you get a hot swap pcb it's pretty easy

if not, you will have to do some soldering

of course you can go as far as you want with modding
deep copper

not really
I just like building my shit that I use
and I type for most of my awake time
so better make it nice and comfortable
deep copper
ah neat neat!
proud jay
the switches make the biggest difference in feel imo
like you have cherry mx brows, red and blue
deep copper
so it feels good to touch and press now huh
proud jay
but then there's 1000s of of other types
I got some fake holy panda switches
very nice tactile switch
deep copper
hmm, it seems that i have no idea what a switch means here!
short grove
the clickety thing under the key caps
proud jay
so you have the plastic thingies on top of your keyboard, that's the keycap
under the cap you have a clicking mechanism that pushes down to the pcb to register your press
that's the switch
proud jay
if you pull off a keycap on your board yo ucan see
these things
it alters the feeling and sound of pressing down keys
short grove
i like the mx brown they're not as loud as the other cherry switches

if you get a hot swap pcb it's pretty easy
so can we "hot swap" all of switches easily?

if you have a hotswap pcb yeah
if it is not mentioned specifically in your keyboard listing, it will not be hotswap
then you can still do it
but you will need a soldering kit
