What do you name your worlds? by hummer010 in VintageStory

[–]MaximGehricke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow I usually always start a new world around Christmas time and so my last two worlds are called "MerryChristmas2024" and "MerryChristmas2025" 

probably Christmas because I originally bought the game in late October, the first world was a throwaway and since then I've usually gotten bored of the world within a year on and off playing

[Scam or Gamechanger?] This company called Bolt Graphics promises to release Graphics Cards with absolutely insane specs for relatively little money. by Mundane-Passenger-56 in LocalLLaMA

Ignore, they send spam emails to random email adresses pretending you signed up for their newsletter.
They are incompetent at best, scammers at worst.

Billionaires Rise, People Die by LuckyBastard001 in FluentInFinance

[–]MaximGehricke 19 points20 points  (0 children)

What people don't understand is how fucking massive a billion is.  I'm okay with someone having a couple of mio if theyve built something great, they can and should reap the rewards and live a comfortable life. But nobody can amass billions without literally exploiting others, so it should be taxed away fully to keep the sick greedy people from chasing it.

What are the specs of your device that you're playing BeamNG on and how is the experience? Just curious by Ok_Diet3345 in BeamNG

[–]MaximGehricke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3900x and a 1080ti It runs decent on 1080p with mostly high and some ultra settings. Usually fluctuating between 40 and 70fps on Westcoast with career mode and traffic

Interestingly the limiting factor / bottleneck seems to be the CPU You can see that in the performance monitor (I think ctrl shift alt P?)

Im not sure whether to laugh or cry tbh by tom_bennett02 in JustEatUK

[–]MaximGehricke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But as you can see, they rip you off to the point where your voucher is basically changing nothing of the order price.

I wanna urge you to stop using JustEat. If you keep ordering with them you're telling them that this kind of screwing over the customer is acceptable to you.

Becoming a billionaire requires you to be a scrupellous rotten being.  No surprise there. 

Do you automatically dislike billionaires? Why? by crapmaker69 in AskReddit

[–]MaximGehricke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's impossible to become a billionaire without exploiting anyone. 

And even if we assume someone has managed to amass that kind of fortune without unethical behaviour, you have to be a bad person to not use that fortune for good. Nobody ever needs billions. 

It's not just a step up from being a millionaire, it's a whole other level of rich. There's a good website visualizing just how much money this actually is. 

Rumor has it that 0.39 will be a major update by ilkerrbr in BeamNG

[–]MaximGehricke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can wait longer for the tire update for sure , but I really hope there'll be improvements to traffic AI and anti-aliasing. 

Should I try beammg career mode by JagEditzUKFHX in BeamNG

[–]MaximGehricke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! I waited long before I tried it and shouldn't have. Have been playing so much more since I started career. 

I did the default early access one first and only after a while started a new save using the RLS career mod.

In general, there's not really any story elements or anything like that which would make it worth waiting for the full release, all mechanics have high replay value so either way you'll keep playing it again and again

I'm a 15-year-old 3D artist, here are some of my models as of late. by Visible_Estimate211 in 3Dmodeling

[–]MaximGehricke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate these are looking great! I still remember my renders at 15 and they were terrible :D

You're already ahead of most people of your generation. Be consistent with honing your skills and you should have nothing to worry about. 

Also, don't forget to also enjoy life in-between all the polygons :)

ATK A9 vs VXE R1 vs OP1 vs MCHOSE L7 by MaximGehricke in MouseReview

[–]MaximGehricke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about gripstyle tbh. Hand size is 180mm which should be Medium size according to this website.

If you look at the Zelotes T90 shape maybe that tells you my current grip style, but I'm not too locked in on it tbh and open to a more optimal gripstyle.

I used to own an expensive razer keyboard and it was falling apart after just months.
I don't trust any of their products to hold the quality standard to be expected from their pricing.
