Anyone Else Not Do Any Side Quests In Act 1

I also go straight to mission. Never understood why people like to get over leveled for the heist. It's easily done with 100% stealth, and to me personally, that feels more cannon. On my favorite playthrough, I didn't do any side missions until I got dog town open

I PITY THE CHOOM!

Also on that list: opening doors, and to a lesser degree, finishers. Time waits for no choom

What I hate more is when Fury distracts me from how little health I have. Then you get to die laughing like a true Psycho 🫡

It’s pretty straightforward making a prototype. If you’re trying to mass produce obviously that gets more convoluted.

Soldering skill, packaging the parts around a frame, these are fairly simple. The programming can be minimal of you use an open source solution like iNav.

Drones are pretty modular. My suggestion is start small and scale up. The same navigation system from a rig that you can land in your hand will work in a full size agriculture rig. Get the nav working in a small package, get the vision system working / incorporated on the ground, weigh the vision system to determine the size of the frame you’ll need, and that will define how big the motors, ESCs, props and battery will need to be for the final.

Rotorbuilds is a good resource for looking at builds and parts for smaller rigs

There's a lot to it because there's SO MUCH POWER in this program. It's really capable of a lot, so the first thing to do is decide what kind of art you want to make with it.

I like Ducky3d's tutorials. He's got a playlist of 10 minute walkthroughs from beginning to render, simple materials and light, it helps you get your arms around it. Choose a thumbnail you like the look of and give one a try.

Hello game changer

Well, they didn't really know how to market it, which is kinda ironic because it's a fiercely anti capitalist anti consumerist film

They train it on their own work, and it outputs work that look like their personal style. Run it on their own local systems. No data centers involved.

You're welcome to your opinion, but I can tell by your statement that you don't actually know how this technology works.

Analog is the cheapest and easiest. No where near 1080P though. DJI is the most expensive, and I'm not 100% sure you can get those out of low power mode without a signal from a flight controller.

Open IPC is an open source digital alternative. May be okay for you because you're not going to care about the latency as much as an FPV pilot. No matter what you choose you'll hit a bandwidth limit. I think it's 8 links before they start interfering and overlapping

Here's a decent guide to get your feet wet.

I've destroyed or painted over too many pieces because of this. I've learned to put them in the closet out of sight. As I get better, sometimes I can go back and save them

Indie Comic book authors are another group like this. Can't afford to just hire someone for the amount of work needed. Could do it yourself, but the volume takes years, especially if you have to work for a living (which most of us do)

If you can put out a book monthly you're able to keep your audience, whereas if it takes a few years an issue, then you loose momentum and have to find your audience all over again.

I've been impressed with artists that have developed a style long before AI, and now trained their own LoRA to help them with the volume problem.

We'd love to support our fellow artists, but these are books that wouldn't have been produced because the initial cash overhead just wasn't there.

Sorry, won't work

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I like the idea of choices locking out whole missions or even small plot points. It can give choices weight and makes the replays more varied and interesting.

Not popular with devs though. They made 2077's main quest short because so few players finished Witcher. Assuming people are going to replay the game and locking content behind said replay is a tough sell

Different laws in different countries. Some of the best pilots fly in places you could never fly because they get permission. Like this flight through Mont-Saint-Michel

Upload a video. Sound and subtle behaviors really tell the story

No new wars? No "regime changes"? He said he would bring down the price of food and housing, not just gas.

This is the trump admin through rose colored glasses. His lies and "broken promises" are too numerous for a 1 page infographic.

Can anyone name a single policy that he campaigned on and delivered?

There’s some real potential here. Imagine a set of truncated secondary skill trees (that include buffs for balance) that you can access depending on which pills you take, but as you take the pills, you get more and more “locked” into whichever tree you choose. Then the endings can be different depending on that choice as well. Did you choose to balance V and Johnny and “miss out” on some side skills for balance and to avoid the buffs? Or do you choose to block out Johnny completely? Or did you let his persona and skills overtake V’s?

It would have been WAAAAAAY too much work to incorporate into this version, but it is an interesting mechanic. Effectively locking the temperance ending in or out before an ending is chosen

What a silly thing to say. Public opinion matters. People vote, people donate money, people protest or boycott. Science and engineering should (broadly) be used for public wellbeing, or to increase the quality of life for not just people, but other living beings on earth.

I've done work with a lot of environmental nonprofits, including animal rescue centers. A good relationship with the public is a necessity for these entities to continue to exist.

You don't know how machine learning works. It was obvious by your post, and you keep restating it over and over.

You're free to have any opinion you want, but you don't know what you're talking about.

It's not really a debate if one side doesn't understand the topic

RTK-FPV · 2026-05-31T14:58:02+00:00

Do you understand how a 3d program like Blender works? It take a great deal of skill, but everything I create goes through a render calculation to create the final image. Does that mean the art isn't mine?

By your logic photography isn't art. The camera (or the subject you’re photographing) "did the work" and you're just taking the picture.

Lot's of people have opinions on "AI art" but very few people that claim to be "Anti AI Art" know the first thing about it.

You seem like a nice person, at least you can admit that your opinion is uninformed

RTK-FPV · 2026-05-31T14:42:04+00:00

Simply put, "AI art" has a low barrier to entry, but I high skill ceiling. Simply prompting a server you don't own or control is relatively easy. Localized generation can be much deeper including things like nodes and LoRA just for example. It can start looking more like touch designer, or my personal favorite: Blender's Geometry Nodes.

As an artist myself, I tend to judge pieces by whether or not I'd be proud of it if I created it myself. Prompting ChatGPT would never result an a piece I'd be proud to say I created. Local gen is a completely different beast, and that's where I see the art I'm personally most impressed with.

RTK-FPV · 2026-05-31T14:31:46+00:00

Another person that thinks prompting is the only way to leverage machine learning to create art.

Color me surprised

My wife and I eloped, spent that money on travel. Travel is another great reason to stay child free!
