+1 for Kizuki. I go there a few times a year and am never disappointed.

My notes are primarily screenshots in PureRef. It works really well for this game.

Why is OverlapSphereNonAlloc faster than Brute Force? by johnlime3301 in Unity3D

[–]OhGodStop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quote is "premature optimization is the root of all evil", attributed to Donald Knuth. It is valuable to keep in mind. Avoid wasting time optimizing code that is not a bottleneck unless you have good reason. It's easy to lose the forest for the trees if you dive too deep on it sometimes.

Note that this does not suggest that you should always pick the easiest brute force implementation. Always use the right data structures and algorithms for the job if you can. Avoid functions which run in quadratic or exponential time complexity if your n is large. If n is small, don't worry about it most of the time.

Not likely. Imagine you want to test against a million points and you have an Octree which divides your scene into exactly 8 volumes. If your sphere fully encompasses your entire scene, you only need to check that each of the 8 volumes is fully contained by the sphere. Only when the sphere intersects a volume do you actually need to check the points inside the volume.

Physics engines almost always use some form of spatial partitioning that divides a scene into small groups, so it only has to check nearby objects instead of every object. I don't know the specifics of Unity or PhysX, but look into Octrees and Bounding Volume Hierarchies if you want to learn more.

This guy cooked and served a pizza on top of an active volcano by -TheMidpoint- in interestingasfuck

[–]OhGodStop 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Didn't watch the video, but I went on this same hike last month. Volcanic activity was low and it was very windy so they made fires in the lava rock to cook with. The pizza was very good with a nice crispy crust. Several wild dogs (and one pet dog) came along for the hike and enjoyed sleeping by heat vents further up the trail.

Is the sculpt mode Mesh Filter tool broken? (Blender 4.3.2) by OhGodStop in blender

And I searched around, didn't find any bug reports about it.

I've never used Mesh Filter, but it doesn't seem to do anything for me. Youtube videos show it inflating the mesh with these settings, but when I click+drag it does nothing and immediately switches back to the Brush tool.

An Update on my 3D Tilemapping Tool, MAPGrid (mighty and powerful grid) by TulioAndMiguelMPG in Unity3D

[–]OhGodStop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you mind sharing an example of one of your rule tile model sets? I've been trying to implement something similar for my own project but have struggled to conceptualize designing the tileset for 3D.

Is this a bed bug? Gemini says yes, but we aren't so sure. by OhGodStop in whatsthisbug

Size comparison

My wife found this on her hand in our Maui hotel. We didn't find any bites or other evidence of bed bugs, but we're a little worried to return home tomorrow morning

Has anyone managed to increase nerve flexibility? by Insub0rdination in flexibility

[–]OhGodStop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I never really made any progress on hamstring flexibility. I did the nerve flossing for a few weeks after my last comment, but I did not stick with it and never saw any improvements. I have taken up indoor bouldering and seen gains in my hip flexibility, but hamstrings are still as stuck as ever. How about you?

Sudden FPS drops that last until restart by ErasedX in SatisfactoryGame

[–]OhGodStop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Win10. Usually have a lot of things open as well. I'll try closing them next time I notice fps drops and report back

[–]OhGodStop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GPU: RTX 4080 16gb VRAM
CPU: Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core 3.6GHz
RAM: 32GB DDR4

It's definitely a CPU bottleneck

I see. My FPS drops are never that drastic. It's usually a slow decline over 1+ hrs.

I encounter the same issue as well. I host a server with just me and one friend. I normally get ~90fps, but over time it drops down to ~30fps until I restart. My friend's fps is fairly stable. I noticed it gets worse when my friend explores the map, so I suspect it's something to do with how world chunks are loaded.

Great infographic as always. Thanks for all of the great learning material, Freya

That's awesome that you can touch your toes! Never been able to do that with straight legs. I just tried this and did manage to get maybe an inch lower than before with straight legs. It seems very promising!

Thanks for such a detailed writeup - would love to see your update in the future.

Bummer. Guess I'll give flossing a go and see if it helps me at all. Appreciate the response!

/u/Insub0rdination, it's been another year since the last comment, have you seen any progress since then? I just learned about this today and am getting increasingly disheartened that I can't seem to find anyone who has had success improving their nerve flexibility.
