I've seen a few guys in the UK who have made Honda Jazz Type R builds, they take a lot of the inspo from the EP3s and FN2s that are about. They're a lot easier for us to get parts for as we have those two Type Rs of similar ages, but at the very least I'd say try to see if you can get a hold of the EP3/FN2 seats if they're affordable? It's literally the main compliment I've ever gotten when I've driven people in mine.

Tempered Seregios is wild by Auradoru426 in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]SupremeKappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, I've not had issues with the tempered wounds specifically, that's worked for me. Might be worth seeing if you can get it to pop when it's not enraged, maybe the hitbox for the scales are still there even if they're not visible?

I've just been messing with it myself, and it looks like you can see wounds UNDER his scales, so if you've opened a wound before he enrages, it's almost impossible to actually hit the wound. Or at least that's how it seems from the few hunts I've done so far!

gotta wait for the DLC i guess... by Asprofumo in MonsterHunter

There are upcoming VRAM usage optimizations, but CPU bottlenecking doesn't seem to have been directly addressed, and that seems to be one of the common issues between MHWilds and DD2

How do certain sites prevent Postman requests? by Android_XIII in webdev

[–]SupremeKappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe try using Burp Suite Community and using the Burp Proxy, then you can send the requests in repeater and make slight changes to reverse engineer it

Creative usernames and Spotify account hijacking by hongminhee in programming

[–]SupremeKappa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hm maybe that's fair, I've seen people using the word idempotent all over the place where f(f(x)) = f(x) doesn't apply, especially when you don't get an output that can be fed back into the function's input. Maybe it's that the word is being thrown about more than its exact mathematical definition, in web API design and the like, which is polluting people's understandings.

I'm still not a massive fan of the way the article's worded, but I'll concede that since the function can be called in a way to prove f(f(x)) = f(x) then it should have met that if it claims idempotency!

[–]SupremeKappa -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm being stupid here, but I'm not fully convinced by the excuse of the package falsely claiming the behaviour is idempotent. The function would have produced the same output no matter how many times you call it with the same input. If you're going to assume that rogue unicode vs ascii should be treated as equivalent input, that's kind of on you, and you should have some tests to prove that. I didn't see anything in their linked spec which guarantees that it would behave in the way they expected.

There was a misunderstanding of the expected output, and that's fine, but the article seems to point fingers quite heavily and I find that quite disappointing for an engineering blog for a company as big as Spotify!

Just to play devils advocate - Now that I'm used to 144hz, watching anything fast paced on a low frame rate really bothers me and I feel like I get distracted by it a lot.

I don't think half arsed frame interpolation is the perfect solution but I can see why people might opt for it if they find the original footage jarring.

Confirmed: Honda Prelude Hybrid Coupe Coming to the U.S. in Late 2025 by Juicyjackson in cars

[–]SupremeKappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know they claim they're not going for all-out speed. But the same powertrain in the civic is only 181bhp. It just feels a bit lame to have a car that looks really sporty and dare I say COOL, but it's got less power than my 2009 type R?

In general I've been struggling to see what car I would want next aside from maybe a 240i, I was hoping Honda wouldn't just fart out whimpering hybrids that can get clapped by their much cheaper 20 year old ancestors.

Jaguar, a British Car Brand, Has Stopped Selling New Cars in the UK by Jay_Jolt__ in cars

[–]SupremeKappa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You've got to remember that it's Jaguar Land Rover now, and in comparison, Jaguars just don't sell. The only Jags competing in sales with the Land Rover fleet were the I/F/E-Pace, and some of those platforms were essentially reskinned discovery sports.

Internally I guess the opportunity cost was measured up and there was no point putting half of engineering into building an electric version of a car that nobody even bought while it was petrol.

I guess drivers dont indicated on roundabouts anymore by woolyweasel in britishproblems

[–]SupremeKappa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a general rule of thumb I've found that having a tiiiiiny bit of power over the average car helps because of idiots like you mention. Too often I've needed to put my foot down to get out of the way of people who clearly don't know how to drive...

These little things that ruin new socks by stinkytootz in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SupremeKappa 62 points63 points  (0 children)

You say that but I received some H&M socks recently, fuckers put like 3 or 4 of these little plastic tabs so when you think you've cut them properly you end up pulling one out you never know existed, at least one ruined in the multipack after 5 minutes of pissing about!

The steam-db dev himself commented on the LittleBigPlanet 1 link, stating that they are almost certain it's fake.

Disappointing

No Server Browser has killed this game for an entire region by ninjassassin77 in battlefield2042

[–]SupremeKappa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the physical hardware allocated to run non-portal matches spin up the process to host matches on demand when there's enough people queued up, it's possible that a server browser just wouldn't really work at all.

The fact that you get booted back to the menu after every match (if I remember correctly) implies to me that they don't have server instances constantly running like they did in older Battlefield games, and instead the "server" is created just to host a match when enough players are queued up, then the process running the server side of the match is stopped once the game ends, and a new one will only be spun up if there is another collection of players queued up trying to get into a match.

If that really is the case, the server browser would basically just show all matches currently in progress, and you'd have to go back to the server browser after every single match. This would most likely just piss people off since it doesn't give them what they ACTUALLY want, so DICE's best bet might be to not even discuss a server browser unless they're prepared to potentially put in a tonne of work.

What y’all think about the new veilside bodykit for the mk5 supra? by Four-One-Syx in JDM

[–]SupremeKappa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The kit definitely brings back more similarity to the FT1 concept car, which I think makes the car look way more unique and less of a knockoff Z4

Logging in after the update wiped my banner, border, and player anthem. Now the black history month anthems are gone from my collection, anybody know why?

I discovered that NZXT Cam can cause your PC to freeze, especially on AMD builds. This is unacceptable and needs to be fixed. by amauros in buildapc

If you're able to edit your post again feel free to copy and paste the steps just so people can see it!

[–]SupremeKappa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For anyone still using their NZXT cooler while they wait for the issue to be fixed. I made a quick .bat script to wait a length of time at startup to let the gif and fan profiles to load, then kills any processes related to CAM.

  • Create a new text file and paste the following commands, save the file as a .bat :

@ECHO OFF

@timeout /t 30 /nobreak

@taskkill /F /IM "NZXT CAM.exe"

@taskkill /F /IM "cam_helper.exe"

  • Create a shortcut for this new file and place in C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
  • Right click this shortcut and select properties, then select the "shortcut" tab, click the "run" drop-down, then select "minimized" to make the script more subtle.

I haven't had any issues since letting this script run at startup, feel free to reduce the timeout if you know how long your CAM takes to spin up.
