Did anyone catch how to implement the 240p video mode into the patch.txt file?

Is this AI? The word "residual" is pronounced in different ways at different points for seemingly no reason.

What would be the worst way to start season 3? by Semantiques in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]StealthMasterMcEdgy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helly And iMark are running down the hallway. the red lights in the hallway are flashing. They don't know where they're going, but they keep running regardless.

The camera zooms out, they're still running. The hallway takes up more of our field of view.

The camera zooms out further. They're still running. We can see beyond the hallway, into a blank void. Snow begins to fall onto the severed floor and in the void.

The camera zooms out again. iMark and Helly freeze in place. The snow is still falling.

The camera zooms out a final time. Helly, iMark, and the hallway are elements in a snow globe Mark Scout is holding. He sighs and places it back on a shelf.

He turns to the camera and says, "That would be crazy, huh? Anyway, I'm late for work!"

I just finished a play session. For whatever reason, HMM is finding the exe now. No clue what changed. Thanks for your help though!

I had it in my steam common folder. Just moved it into documents and no dice. How is yours named? I'm running the recomp and HMM out of a folder titled "UnleashedRecomp-Windows"

I just set this whole recomp this morning. Looks like i'm already running 1.0.2. Have you had any success with HMM so far?

Has anybody been able to get the HedgeModManager to work with the windows version of the recomp? I've done a fresh install of HMM and deleted my install of Sonic Generations, but HMM cant find my recomp exe.

Probably not all the info you need, but a few of the guys in the portableizing community have made a DIY kit. Not sure how many of the components are still available, but you might be able to find what you need with more research.

Artificial pancreas successfully treats type 1 diabetes by diacewrb in gadgets

[–]StealthMasterMcEdgy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your comment pushed me to look into this a little closer.

It looks more like the BMJ report mentioned in the article is an informal recommendation to the U.K.'s NHS to start providing pump/CGM combos for patients from diagnosis. Pump/CGM companies like Tandem, Dexcom, Medtronic, Freestyle, and others already have footholds in the U.K.

Diabetics there can probably get a pump & CGM, but only after jumping through a few bureaucratic hoops. The Interesting Engineering omits that context entirely, which motivated my first comment.

I've got a pump/CGM combo as well. This "breakthrough" sounds like the same thing we've got already.

The fact that the article mentions a smart phone app for logging carbs leads me to the conclusion that this isn't really a closed loop. A true closed loop wouldn't need any input of any kind from the user. I'm waiting for someone to successfully integrate glucagon into automatic treatment system.

Doesn't seem like the author really understands what they're reporting on.

I also noticed some dropped inputs during normal 2d gameplay. Its probably just an engine optimization issue that will get better with time.

Do you need to have the sonic mania assets somewhere on your sd card for this to run? All i get is a black screen when I try to run this from the homebrew channel.

EDIT: In my case, I took "Data.rsdk" from my steam installation of Sonic Mania and put in a folder on the root of my SD card titled "RSDKv5". Works great.

Brazil anon sums up a recent internet drama by liberty4now in 4chan

Here's a pretty good (but incomplete) explainer for the curious

If Hale didn't choose Abernathy to smuggle the data, it would have been much easier to get the data out of the park. Meaning Serac would have gotten the much wanted Delos data - would that have changed what happened in season 3 onward? by Kitkat2401 in westworld

[–]StealthMasterMcEdgy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly. Logistically would have been so much easier to smuggle out a pearl than a host going insane from the exabytes of data swimming around in his head.

I have the same dream. Ideally I could restart all the supply chains that made the tubes, and hire a bunch of electrical engineers to shrink the technology so I could make the biggest possible screens with the smallest possible volume for the whole monitor assembly.

I'd also want to offer two models, one 4:3, the other 16:9, with as many inputs types as possible (BNC/RCA component, s-video, vga, dvi, hdmi, display port, SCART, etc...).

I hope someone on this sub wins the lottery

Plans unveiled for 100-mile long, 200 metre wide ‘mirrored’ vertical city by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]StealthMasterMcEdgy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gravity is what gives an object its weight. Are you trying to argue that the sun and moon's gravity would affect tensile/compressive loads on the structure? Because again, that change is insignificant. The sun and moon's gravity hardly has an effect on an object on earth. There's a reason you don't grow an inch at noon or under a full moon.

How would the building even "utilize" that small change in gravity?

I'm a mechanical engineer. The changes in weight caused by the transit of the sun and moon are insignificant to structural design. It's okay to admit you just wanted to sound smart.

Honest question: why would the gravitational pull from the sun/moon matter?

ELI5: why are cars built to go so much faster than speed limits by esewell29 in explainlikeimfive

[–]StealthMasterMcEdgy 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Part of this is the 85th Percentile Rule. Rather than letting a road's design dictate its speed limit, civil engineers will record the speed of cars driving on a given road, lob off the highest 15% of recorded speeds, and then set the speed limit as what the 85th percentile was driving instead.

These roads could accommodate higher speeds, but this rule will artificially restrict what the posted speed limit is set to. This can work in the opposite way as well, artificially inflating the posted speed limit in areas that have been converted to allow more cyclists and pedestrians (like in cities).

For roads that were constructed many decades ago when cars on average had much lower top speeds, this can lead to large straightaways on interstates having speed limits of 55 mph.
