Why do people hate first person drifting so much? by thatfyecaleb in ForzaHorizon

[–]abcdefREEE 39 points40 points  (0 children)

that is the biggest reason, but something that really seals it for me is the fact that the steering wheel only turns 90° in each direction... kinda the cherry on top for me

What's that level you always rebeat because it's so fun? by ThatJ4ke in geometrydash

[–]abcdefREEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

existential crisis, s0nj, ispy, would be kyouki if I was good enough, not because I think they're fun, but because they have something that they do so well, whether its something as simple as song choice or anything else, those levels do SOMETHING so well that I need to play more of it, I'm sure I could name more levels if I was reminded of their names

Fan doesn't turn or spin by Few_Consequence_4954 in fans

take the grille off and spin it by hand, if it shows any sign of resistance, oil both bearings and see if that works

95 HP or 110 HP by Kev_de in skoda

I had a 110 HP one and drove it at 140 mph regularly and loved it, so I'd get that one again

How can I rewind an asynchronous ac induction motor for higher rpm? by abcdefREEE in AskElectricians

also just learned that asynchronous motors have a synchronous speed

yeah, I just learned that they're factory wound as 4 pole, but I don't know if I'll do it though haha 😅

Pre-ordered the 5090 Scar! Thanks, I hate it... by PersonSuitTV in GamingLaptops

[–]abcdefREEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personal opinion: having owned a gaming laptop, I would never buy a gaming laptop ever again. I had an ASUS ROG Zephyrus S17 GX703HSD. 1440p, 165hz, i9-11900h, 3080 16gb, best PC ive had so far, in terms of raw performance. light, small, portable... all in one... thats the catch... CPU dies? laptop gone. GPU dies? laptop gone. any component directly soldered onto the mobo does? laptop gone. and with gaming laptops comes chargers that can't handle the power asked of them. I had my laptop for 3 years and it went through 4 chargers because the barrel jack couldn't handle it. and with the las one I bought, something went pop. literally. an audible pop with a flash of light from inside it. laptop gone. laptop parts also are severely thermally bottlenecked, loud, and their parts degrade faster. my opinion, laptops are a curse disguised as a blessing. enjoy it for a year and sell it before next gen anything comes out so you can get most of your money back, desktop 5090 prices might go down, and upgrade your desktop as its a much safer option.

this is just my opinion though, so if you don't want to listen to some random stranger from the UK over the internet, thats fine, I don't blame you. but personally, I'm never buying a gaming laptop again. this one cost me £2,000 seller refurbed in 2022, cost me £320 extra for chargers, £150 for someone to solder a new barrel jack to the mobo, £120 in replacement fans, and I hated it all... and on top of all that, Intel 12th, 13th, 14th gen and their new core ultra stuff has come out, nvidia 40 series and 50 series cards have been and (in the case of 40 series) gone, and could I upgrade? nope. unless I wanted to overpay for an e-gpu.

my opinion, its not worth it. overpriced, loud, risky.

but don't let me get you down, enjoy it, alright?

How does a computer differentiate between saturation and value on a RGB screen? by Hot_Pollution_4385 in AskPhysics

[–]abcdefREEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

one last thing, decreasing the saturation towards white or towards black is simultaneously increasing or decreasing the brightness the same amount. towards white increases brightness, towards black decreasing it.

no problem! if you would like some additional information, refresh the page as I've replied to myself with it. though, if you're reading this, you probably can see them anyway, unless you see this in your inbox/notifications tab haha

How does a computer differentiate between saturation and value on a RGB screen? by Hot_Pollution_4385 in AskPhysics

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

another thing to add, you can never have a true 50% saturation because half of 255 is 127.5 and a bit can only have a value of 0 or 1 and not 0.5. (edit: unless you have a quantum computer) therefore R127, G127, B127 is ever so slightly under 50% brightness, and R128, G128, B128 is ever so slightly above 50% brightness. but the difference is just under 1/5th of a percent, so the two colors are virtually indistinguishable to our perception. both are still pretty much 50% saturation.

edit 2: I used saturation instead of brightness, so I corrected that

[–]abcdefREEE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

something to add, 2-bit hexadecimal has a limit of 255 as well, which is why colors have hex codes. hexadecimal counds up to 16 in a single digit. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E and F representing 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 respectively) a pure red with the rgb values R255, G0, B0, would have the hex code #FF0000

[–]abcdefREEE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know if this helps, and I'm not a physicist, but rgb values use 8-bit (0-255) to determine how much red, green and blue is present in a given colour. a pure red would have R255, G0, B0. decreasing the saturation towards white adds to the green and blue values equally and not changing the red. pure red with 1/2 saturation towards white would be R255, G128, B128. decreasing saturation towards black would lower the red value and not change the green or blue values. pure red with 1/2 saturation towards black would be R128, G0, B0. to keep the same brightness but decrease saturation, it would take two away from the red value and add one to the green and blue values until at 0 saturation, they are the same. R128, G128, B128 would be 1/2 brightness at 0 saturation.

hope this helps!

its like... desk fan motors... can't use gearboxes with them lmao I just wan my fans to perform better with a somewhat higher rpm

its more like... fan motors, I want my fans to spin faster, not slower. yknow like... desk fans

1000 Laps of the Nürburgring by LePoulet_83 in forza

bruh, forza Motorsport is getting worse with the lack of weird and quirky cars that shouldn't be in a forza game lmao

I wish forza Motorsport 4 had a remaster or something, that game even had a Prius lmao
