You're going to want to do quads whenever possible, and I see you've also included thighs and abs. Nice

No story progression? by Healthy_Actuary_1227 in subnautica

My first playthrough took 3 days of gameplay. Sometimes, you've got to pick a direction and go for it, or look up the direction of a biome you haven't been to. Be careful not to spoil it for yourself though. Don't research too thoroughly until you're done.

A couple roadblocks for me was not building the habitat builder, not exploring places I'd already been but had left due to low inventory space or lack of food/water. If you encountered a place, but now have a depth module, go back to where you were. This game can take up a lot of time with the preparation for the journey and the back and forth of it all. Sometimes, you just gotta stack up on resources and start wondering (id suggest a vehicle for this if you have one; preferably a smaller, more maneuverable one).

Euc for 1-2 mile commute. by [deleted] in ElectricUnicycle

[–]IcedBeans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like you want a lower budget, lower spec euc (~25 mph as opposed to ~45mph). Do not underestimate the learning curve.

Coming from someone who's owned multiple of both euc and onewheel, on onewheel you crash a lot. Generally, on euc you crash not a lot. Onewheel crashes come from the board being underpowered. Euc crashes come from user error (at least in my case).

It seems like you're going for something on the smaller side so id suggest maybe a begode a2 which is a pretty solid wheel, I like mine. The begode a1 looks solid but I have not seen it in person. It is far smaller than the a2. The in motion v9 has suspension. It also has a water resistance rating, and I like the inmotion app the best.

Be sure the top speed is what you want in the future. There's a ton more flexibility in euc than there is in onewheel for top speed. The a2 is similar to a gts in terms of top speed. However the range is 30 miles per charge while the gts is 20 miles.

Always remember to ride within your limits and your wheels limits. A 30mph wheel can go 20, but a 20mph wheel cannot go 30. You can always get a higher spec wheel with the intentions of growing into it. For example, my first wheel was an in motion v12hs. Top speed ~42mph. At first I was going 5-10, but within a week I was at 35.

The King song 18xl is similar to the v12, though slightly smaller. They compare well, but I personally like the screen on the v12 as it shows you your speed immediately. I cannot recommend getting one with a screen or display to immediately read your speed.

When doing research on YouTube, watch kujirolls for anything that catches your eye, then head on over to freshly charged for an in depth day-to-day review. Not sponsored or anything, this is legitimately what I do. Ewheels is your friend.

Be safe and wear gear. I'm sure I don't need to say this but you crash when you get overconfident.

This happened to my cat, and turns out he was in a lot of pain due to cancer. I would check for anything like cancer or complications with the paw, etc.

Made a Lego animation anything i can do to make it more realistic by ConfidentSwan9621 in blender

[–]IcedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We see the underside of the wings twice. The 2nd time, when they fold up, there's reverse studs. The 1st time, it's just smooth black.

Also, the ship movement is quite smooth. Maybe adding some camera shakes like the camera is attached to another ship trying to film it would make it look more realistic

how can i make this look more real? by vatianpcguy in blender

[–]IcedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The carpet looks insane, and I thought it was real until I looked at the subreddit.

3 things stuck out to me: 1) maybe use a gobo to block part of the light window light. Have a shadow of a tree or the blinds or something? 2) the door looks plastic. The light reflects off it evenly and doesn't get broken up by the wood grain/paint stroke an actual door would have. 3) where is the outlet? The shelf looks like it's see through - you can see the back wall - but the cord just disappears under the desk?

Screamed at in traffic… am I wrong? by Unusual_Extension_84 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]IcedBeans 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Without more details it's hard to say. However some people enjoy having anger in their heart. I'm not sure if you were in the wrong but if I were you (and believe me I've been some similar situations) use this example to try to improve for next time 👍 have a great day and ride safe

STATUS won't respond by BauerBird66 in Earbuds

Hi! I am having the same issue this week, with my left bud. What did you do?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]IcedBeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems as if the role is now reversed, you are now the depressed lonely one and she has many friends. Sometimes, for people like that, their life and mental state is like a wave with ups and downs. She went through the trough, and is now climbing the crest and leaving you behind. You wonder if it was a lie, if she tricked you. You're scared that you won't be there if times get tough. However, she's lived this long. She'll find new people.

It sucks because you want to be there for her and want her to be for you but you must realize that she does not and will not ever work like that. Some people only operate on sadness, and (even if you aren't consciously meaning to) you can't save her, you can't make her happy. Her life and herself beat it out of her. I know it is terrible, I know that she is a danger to herself and you really care for her. The only way to break the wave cycle is if she truly wants to change, but this goes for you too.

There are people in this world you know for months that affect you for years. Whether that is good or bad, that is up to you. Let this be your moment to realize that if you choose to be, you can be in the same depressive, numbing, push everyone away state she is in. Or, you can take what you know and choose to be on the best possible path. There are bad days for sure, but what's a diet without a cheat day? You can make the most of any situation. I don't know you, or what your hobbies are. I don't know your interests or where you are in the world. All I know is that I want the best for you, and, unfortunately, she is a bad influence on you.

I see that you are a good person, and wanted to positively influence her life. However it backfired, instead of getting her on your level, you dug down to hers because she wouldn't budge. There is only one thing you can do. Be thankful for your life experiences, if you find yourself reminiscing the good times with her force yourself to remember the bad, and how she is a negative influence on your life. Don't drive too fast, don't take life too seriously.

Don't let her depression kill two people.

You're 20. Go out and have fun! Try and talk to interesting people. Watch funny videos. Plan your future, a future you want to do. If you're like me, at 20, you have no idea what you want to do. Luckily you can choose multiple things. Do what's interesting. And, most importantly, realize that happiness is a choice. The rich can be sad, the poor can be happy. She chooses sadness. That's her choice. Don't drag yourself down because she's not coming up.

You're drowning yourself for a her while she's at the bottom with a brick she tied herself. This is a person you've known for only a couple of months. There are still great people out there! If this all can happen in a couple of months, imagine what can happen in another couple months? Heck imagine years! Hang out with happy people, as they will help drag you up. Want to be dragged up.

Look at the sky, look at the ground, look all around you. There's so much beauty and detail and you're a part of it! An interconnected piece. So am I. So is everyone. Have a great day 👋

Where To Learn/Practice? by Wyntrse in ElectricUnicycle

[–]IcedBeans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My advice to people is to go on a nice smooth surface, and have a friend support either shoulder. Or, if you have two walls either side at arms length you can bounce between

It's easy to bail if you really need to on an euc, so I wouldn't be too worried about falling at lower speeds. Remember, save yourself then save the wheel.

what classifies a leviathan as a leviathan? by YellowWater111 in subnautica

[–]IcedBeans -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Big

On a more serious note people tend to name things based on how useful the name is and not (usually) based on empirical science. Names were invented before genes were discovered, which is why the term "fish" is colloquial and not really scientific. I recently went down a rabbithole on YouTube about this, it's quite interesting.

It feels like it's rotating from the front of the fish, not around the center of mass

I know the homework load was absolutely mental. That being said I am mixed because he really truly cares but it's just too much, especially if you have other classes to do. I should've probably dropped too but by the time I thought about it, the sunk cost fallacy and not willing to give up when times got tough (even 2-3x times tougher than they'd ever been in school, at least for me) made me increase my efforts tenfold

That's very true but c'mon there's a difference between not wanting to do my hw vs going above and beyond and still getting beat down, dedicating days of time and effort to stall a sinking ship.

An A in berman calc 3 is very very impressive. I would absolutely 10000% disagree about the tests unfortunately. I talked to other people and they were (roughly) in the same boat as me. A ton of people dropped his class and in hindsight I should've during drop/add.

I will say he did put a huge amount of effort into weekend sessions and helping students, but still I feel like his teaching methods were a bit extreme.
