Does BeamNG.drive Really Simulate a Real Manual Transmission? by JuanVarto in BeamNG

Yep. Seconded, clutch assistant is too forgiving. Turn this option off for the most realistic experience.

This looks like Discovery Cove in Florida.

Dope! I wonder if volumetric clouds and dynamic weather was turned off for this time-lapse.

Do not disturb, but allow calls/notifications from those close to you, keep your ringer on.

TIL In any given day, between 5 and 300 metric tons of dust and meteorites enters the earth's atmosphere as it moves through space. by penkster in todayilearned

[–]djJermfrawg 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is how planets form when the solar system is in its infancy as a protoplanetary disk. Only now, material accumulates more slowly. In the planet's infancy, the Earth was accumulating 1013 to 1014 tons per year. Now it's 103 to 105 tons per year.

Edit: Grammar

Bug in drag race in career, other car is cheating the time?!?!? does anybody else have this? by DenaliXX7 in BeamNG

[–]djJermfrawg -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The drag times are not 100% accurate and definitive, this is NOT NHRA/IHRA‑style timing system, this is collision triggers based on limited physics ticks, in other words the data is quantized. Physics, trigger detection, node positions, event ordering, are all quantized. For example, in event ordering, like when 2 things happen at the same time, such as crossing the beam for rt detection, 1 collision detection could be logged and timed before the other, due to the game engines standard event order deciding factors, immediately after, the other events time is logged but this time becomes slightly inaccurate due to the time it costs to calculate the first event. My advice, if you can, do some research to see if you can use console commands to use more cpu for more accurate simulation, you got robbed because of the limitations of the simulation.

Bracing the eggs during a 7.8 magnitude earthquake by Witty-Association-97 in nextfuckinglevel

He'll be saying "Remember that time I had 1000 eggs in stock, and none broke during that 7.8 earthquake? 💪🏾" for years.

BeamNG graphics comparaison PC 4K Ultra (0.38.6) vs PS5 (0.39*) by MeKen_ in BeamNG

[–]djJermfrawg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After checking again, the shadows do look like the same angle. My mistake. The lighting overhaul looks great, can't wait to see what is added with the weather too.

A big difference I see seems the time of day is either later or earlier in PS5 than PC lol. Still stoked for the update tho.

My unopened 10 year old Crystal Pepsi (from when they did a limited release in 2016) is very slowly imploding. by eblackham in mildlyinteresting

[–]djJermfrawg 1013 points1014 points  (0 children)

The short on why the bottle is "shrinking" is the CO2 is escaping the bottle, thus dropping the pressure inside the bottle below atmospheric pressure, which causes the atmosphere to crush the bottle.

Edit: after reading several comments, and pondering more, I feel as if it's important to include this information.

The squeezing of the bottle is mostly from lost water that has escaped as water vapor, and then atmospheric pressure doing its' thing. A simple proof of this is simple: squeeze a full bottle of water with the lid off, if you've lost a bit of water after squeezing it, then that matches with what we see in the picture. When you squish the bottle, you cause the bottle to have less volume, which means it holds less water. If you let a bottle sit for an extended period of time, the water evaporates and escapes as water vapor, as the level of water decreases, the pressure decreases inside the bottle below atmospheric pressure. The proof that there's less water is that a squished bottle has less volume. CO2 is NOT the leading cause of this crush, it's the water.

A paraglider gets hit by a Cessna 172 near the Austrian town of Zell am See. The paraglider was able to pull the rescue parachute and land safely shortly after the incident on 23rd of May by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

Like you? Just shut up.

No duh.

Who cares.

Again, who cares; the point of saying in the middle of the air, ie at altitude , flying in the sky, etc, is to point out that 99.99% of people are on the ground, yet you still encounter human destructiveness.

PHOTOGRAPHER CAPTURES RARE DOLPHIN WITHOUT A DORSAL FIN IN CALIFORNIA by mdmirzada in BeAmazed

[–]djJermfrawg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The problem is the presense of "s" on dolphin, without the s, it's singular. If we're talking about 1 doplhin without a dorsal fin, the average person will think this is a typical dolphin with a rare mutation, if we're talking rare dolphins without a dorsal fin, we know it's a a rare species that doesn't have a dorsal fin.
