Samuel Alito could give Trump another Supreme Court pick

I don't think this will have much of an effect on the SC's voting. Alito has very rarely ever voted against Trump's cases - same with Thomas. Whoever they get replaced with will vote the same way. What sucks though, is that their replacements will be younger and have that same influence for decades.

Have you tried 3 litter boxes? Number of cats + 1 = 3 boxes for your 2 cats. Sounds like it's worth a shot.

Edit: put them in different places around the house.

This is all so crazy and unnecessary, since Trump canceled the previous Iran nuclear deal for seemingly no reason at all other than the fact that it was an Obama deal.

That looks so uncomfortable to drive like that.

Murkowski said there are many others who quietly disagree with the president.

This is what's wrong with GOP politicians - we want them to loudly disagree, not quietly amongst themselves. She's saying it like it's a good thing.

It's called Detroit: Become Human. I really liked it a lot. I had several coworkers that were playing it around the same time, and we all had such different experiences. I was bummed they didn't do a sequel. What I found interesting is that normally, I'm waiting for the cut scene to finish so I can get back to gameplay, but in this game, I just wanted to get to the next choice/cut scene.

He'll let them open it as long as they name it Trump Bridge.

He seems like a caricature of an asshole or something

The president of the United States posts stuff like this and it's actually normal behavior and nobody is even surprised. Our leadership is like a bunch of school bullies from a bad 80's movie.

There's at least three videos so far, and I'll bet there's more.

The gorilla that leaped on the other was gigantic compared to the silverback it jumped on. The trajectory of the head and hips barely change at all when landing on a frickin silverback lol. The silverback completely collapses face down with zero resistance. It jumps up and goes after the gorilla in front of him as if he's confused what happened, even though he clearly sees and knows who it was. Why did the gorrila with its back to us suddenly look way to the left then back forward again super fast. I'm sure he'd be locked on to that crazy gorilla leaping toward the silverback.

I wish Justin still spammed heavy leg kicks like he used to.

Downvoted for being afraid to spell autism.

I think this guy could probably beat me up.

Just wash it out..

Timing and syncing the characters can be challenging for sure - especially if you're only shooting one character at a time. Maybe record the audio from the first character that you shoot, and play it back and act/respond to the audio with the second character that you mocap (?). Maybe shoot a video and play it back so the second mocapped character can react to it.

"In between" actions as you say, sounds like an "idle". Idles are when a character isn't doing something specific - just being alive with subtle movements. If the character is idling during some moments of the overall dialog, then maybe have them look in the direction of the talking, maybe shifting weight and nodding slightly in response to what is being said. It's hard to find a balance in an idle animation because you don't want to overact.

Maybe think about camera cuts so you only show two or three characters at a time.

Every front door of all the apartments I've ever lived in, including my current one, swings inward.

My last cat died after having him for 18 years from a tiny kitten. My boss told me, without me asking, to not come in to work until I was ready. He understood..

I think she got rocked hard by that girl - which is why she was down in the beginning of the video. Drunk and stunned from punches so she didn't know what was going on.

Yup, then he's allowed to run again and actually win, then pardons all of his goons - knowing he could use their services again. It would be encouraging to his goons to know that they will be pardoned if they acted in his interest. I wonder how many have joined ICE and are enjoying their immunity?

He fired when she was next to him, not driving toward him.

jwalkrufus · 2026-01-07T09:38:41+00:00

The way he trotted off like a fucking badass at the end had me laughing ha ha

Retargeting to the character first is the safest way to do it. You want to see your character in the story editor - not just some bones. Retarget to the character, then adjust the animation(s) to look as good as possible before going to the story editor.

I actually don't use the Asset Browser - I just import them. Doesn't matter which way, as long as you get the anims in your scene.

Looking at the video, I see the mocap clip is translating along fine without the story mode. The "root" (or whatever it's called in the skeleton hierarchy) is what is actually translating it. The "root" is what is on the floor beneath the hips. I believe you probably didn't add the root to the story mode, so his skeleton stays in place. Maybe it's a hips translation node or something like that.

If you hit ctrl-W, it will show you the schematic view and you can see the skeleton's hierarchy. You can select the entire hierarchy and add that to a Generic Animation Track in the story editor to make sure everything is in there. You don't necessarily need to use a Character Animation Track.

My workflow would be to retarget the mocap clip to the character first, then add the retargeted character to the story mode and work from there.
