PIC

  • The scales definitely don't match (which is good, it would look much less cool).

  • Yes it's the right long term goal, but the US is nowhere near ready for strong nationalised enterprises, they would just stop getting funding and die. There is a requirement for strong, positive minded government and a shared understanding of the benefits of having nationalised societal services before it can work.

  • Olive in french. Boring word I guess.

  • They should look at French highway rest stops, still the best ones I know about. Like what you describe but sometimes even more, definitely always a café or restaurant for hot meals, local delicacies, kids playgrounds, little walk areas, picnic tables, etc etc. On the really popular ones in summer you even get events, special temporary installations, exhibitions, etc.

  • Big pile in the living room, smaller piles around the house, and more yet in his room...

  • Honestly lighting principles translate regardless of whether you're programming in Godot, unreal, blender etc, or whether you're a photographer or filmmaker. It's unclear if the improvements you're looking for are about how to use Godot specifically or lighting in general, if the latter, then may I recommend studying general lighting information like for example aimed at filmmakers, remove the 3D component aspect because a lot of the content available there is made by folks that are very good at using software, but aren't necessarily experienced gaffers or DoPs, and those are the ones that actually know how to light stuff to make it look good.

  • Pretty sure they were being sarcastic.

  • I'm not 100% sure with a leaf like this, I feel like the high moisture content would stop any propagation of charring, so if there was discoloration it would be very thin. But yeah it's been hand cut so problem solved.

  • Middle option: the design was made digitally (by "hand" or AI), and then they used a laser cutter to cut the leaf.

    The lines of the drawing definitely feel a bit too perfect for it to be fully manual, they scream "vector" to me.

    Edit: I see now it was the surprise third option, they're Japanese and it's meticulously hand crafted (probably also folded over a thousand times).

  • I'm pretty sure you're referring to the classic, "I'm literally the guy in the pic" (you'll find it with that).

  • I think the point virgule depends if you're from France or Québec. I learned it with no space before it and seems this table confirms that. This similar one from a Quebec source seems to be saying you can do either.

  • Regularly when I'm alone in the car and I'm really stressing out I'll scream so hard my vocal cords hurt. Feels good.

  • Nah not at all tbh, you can get very smooth deceleration with it and it doesn't feel floaty or whatever, it does take a tiny adjustment to how you drive, you don't coast anymore but rather you can finely control your deceleration by how much you lift the accelerator, it's quite nice to be honest I always drive it in that mode (even if it's not real one pedal).

  • I think some cars also turn on the hazards automatically if you really hammer the breaks.

  • Yeah my electric 208 is kinda like that (if I remember the video well, watched it a while ago) but since it's Europe there actually is a regulation about how much a car can decelerate before break lights come on, so instead of making the system turn the lights on they throttle how much it can decelerate for recharge and still makes you use the break to use full regen (and eventually the actual brakes, of course). So it's not a real "one pedal driving".

  • I just don't mind my glasses that much that I want to put myself through this/take the risk/pay the cost. I've had them since I was a child, I'm used to them and as far as I know, that's still what has the least side/adverse effects.

  • If we're thinking of the same ones they just look like full throttle/tilt forward to me!

  • Is that even beta flight? Never seen it configured like this, I know that's what they were using at the beginning because that was basically the only FPV software available, but maybe they have a new "military-grade" one now?

    Also it's interesting to see the different flying styles, some of them are like "let me carefully position myself slowly right next to this wing, yesss just right", meanwhile their buddy just flies full speed ahead straight into it.
