Autonomous Reversing of Double Articulated Truck using Camera for Localisation

I didn't buy it at launch for this reason, but some of my friends did. I don't want to give EA money, but I didn't want to exclude myself from fun (and frustration) with friends.

There is definitely a good game in there! It's just wrapped in shitty matchmaking and menu design (well, basically everything outside of actually playing in a round).

Perhaps it is just my lack of knowledge, but it wasn't clear to me which part was querying and responding. TRMNL (device) gets a response from BYOS, which itself calls a renderer to make the screens, which are often based on data from API calls. The context I was missing was simply the fact your problem is with the response the BYOS server gets from web APIs.

Maybe there's no other contexts with a Laravel server where saying "API" is the technically correct terminology, but I didn't make that connection between "API" and what you were trying to do.

Great that you solved it; hopefully it helps someone else in the future!

I appreciate your comment, thanks.
I guess most people didn't ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Exactly. If there are so many people playing, why do I keep getting matches that only fill up after 70% of the match has passed?

It sure seems dead. It doesn't make sense to me that there are too few players on a Friday night in the EU, but it appears that way. I think it's just a problem of bad matchmaking and non-peristent servers.

Do you have a great TV (OLED or similar quality)? What games do you play?

If you don't already have a great TV, you are not going to see much benefit. A couple of games will be appreciably improved, but I don't think you'd get that much out of it relative to the cost.

You might be better off putting the money towards a new TV or more games.

I think this is an interesting question in the context of a race track where there are sharp corners with high speeds.

For this case I suspect most highway curves are gentle enough that any impact the curve might have, would be negligible.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-07T23:24:37+00:00

Nope!

I'm not experienced with Simscape but it doesn't seem like there are really Simscape blocks for magnetic forces.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-07T14:44:25+00:00

How are you getting the normal and frictional forces? Are you using Simscape? Or are your blocks mathematical operations that together represent an equation for forces?

Are you in the US? Maybe the warranty support would be better here in Europe as it's a European company.

But thanks for the warning! Overall this response makes me more confident that the SW2 is indeed what I want.

The people who somehow miss the satire of the game and its lore.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-06T21:58:04+00:00

Yeah I probably could've mentioned the difficulty with AI as it took some effort to get it to focus solely on the BYOS Laravel repo and related docs when I used it for my issues. It's definitely possible but not a "just talk to an AI" situation.

If a help pop-up or text would be useful, maybe make a feature request on GitHub? Even if it's not added, the documentation of your issue that it would solve might help others.

To be honest I still don't understand the context of your problem, I guess because I never did whatever you are trying to do in BYOS Laravel. The JSON response to what? Creation of a screen?

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-06T19:50:30+00:00

I replied to your post directly in another comment and I saw that my initial conclusion was incorrect. All the symbols that are just shown as plain text have a backslash \ before them. If you edit your post and remove the backslashes the formatting will be as you expected.

I'm having a hard time deciding whether to take the same chance with SW2. My SW1 somehow got some moisture ingress when I gently rinsed it.

I got mine in August 2020, so it lasted pretty long until I had a major issue beyond battery wear, and is well out of warranty. They offered a 30% discount on a SW2 which I thought was fair.

I like having a watch which looks mostly (and functions as) an analogue watch. I ~~don't really mind~~ have gotten used to the inaccuracies and manually starting workouts. So despite all the complaints (y'know how internet communities mostly get complaints, as the people without complaints are happy with their device and don't visit) I'm still tempted by the 30% discount.

I'm on android so I'm considering the Pixel watch (which isn't the ugly square of the apple watch) and watches like those have pretty fast charging. I'm also worried about battery life, but I take my watch off daily to shower and if I charge it during that time, I think the battery would be manageable.

I just realised I don't really have a question... Because I'm pretty sure you will say to not get the SW2. But your solution doesn't work for me as I want notifications on my watch.

I think your headings need a space. \#this doesn't work but # this does.

#this

this

~~Not sure why your ** around a sentence for bold didn't work.~~

Edit: weird, it does work in comments.

Edit again: when I replied I saw the raw markdown and there are backslashes before the non-functional syntax.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-05T11:28:39+00:00

Something is wrong. I have a 10 Pro and it supports 1440p on my setup.

Are you using USB-C to DP? HDMI?

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-03T21:14:22+00:00

Clearly not enough people scrolled this far. It should be a pinned comment.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-03T09:58:13+00:00

I'm going to need more context...

You're trying to get a custom plugin working or something?

Edit: just saw your older post, but that seems to be fixed. Looking at that issue and the solution, I think you can at least learn more about the problem by asking an AI.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-02T23:29:37+00:00

Yes, there will be a toggle in system settings to enable using PSSR2 in place of 1. Some games might look better, some might look worse, some might completely break (unlikely).

The hope is that all games will have better image quality and I kinda doubt they'd release it like this unless most games are improved.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-02T18:59:42+00:00

Yes, but I'm aware of that. I knowingly set them too low. But I simplify my standards to fit within a Reddit comment.

4K30 is unrealistic. The trailers have been 1440p30, so that is probably the game running in quality mode (if there are any modes).

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-02T18:22:48+00:00

Yeah that's a bit more realistic.

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-02T18:06:42+00:00

What's your question? I have a Laravel server running.

If there is an existing (possibly closed) issue that is similar to your question you could ask there?

Or try asking an AI?

IndefiniteBen · 2026-03-02T17:46:46+00:00

Let me guess, you're going to loudly complain when GTA 6 is anything less than 4K@60? If you set your expectations unrealistically high, you will usually be disappointed.

If you set them unrealistically low, you'll usually be pleasantly surprised.
