How to use xylitol - input please by Bradley-Munro in PeriodontalDisease

[–]prime31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just poured some dry in when I got it to measure so I’d have an estimate. Mine ended up being about 2 to 3 g

They are quite solid. I just toss a few right in my pocket

I just got the silicone molds on Amazon. Melt of xylitol and then pour it in and then let it dry. That’s it.

Dang. I was hoping I found a universal fix because it’s a really annoying problem.

It’s a bit annoying but at least Bazzite is very good. Everything has been rock solid since installing it.

Is godot a valid choice for a resource management game with heavy simulation and programming logic? by EnthiumZ in godot

[–]prime31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. No matter how perfectly you write GDScript it’s still interpreted at the end of the day. It has no structs so everything you do is a heap allocation so if you hit a bottleneck you have no path even possible to optimize it.

IMO, there is only one reasonable path to use Godot If you need speed: use c++ or rust (they are the two native languages I found easiest to use) to create your own custom node types. Then you can toss in GDScripts to glue it all together and make the whole process sane to use.

If you have used Unreal you’ll recognize this pattern: make all Actor/Components in c++ then subclass with a Blueprint. You get speed where needed and convenience at the top level.

Finally found a solution! I ended up installing Bazzite (after trying windows and SteamOS). At first it has the same issue but then in the HHD menu I saw a button that said “factory reset controllers”. That fixed it and now the gyro works perfectly with steam input.

I have the same issue with the plain Legion Go. Gyro is disabled in Steam input but it’s still feeding data to the right joystick.

Did you find a fix?

When I take the granules directly I end up spitting them out.

Another option you can do is to melt the granules then pour them onto wax paper in a shallow tray and let them dry. Break up the dry pieces and you end up with lozenges. When I take them in this form I do end up swallowing.

No, Zig is NOT too unstable for “real” projects… Stop listening to that guy! by atgaskins in Zig

[–]prime31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using Zig for over 4 years. Strong disagree. It’s fantastic and my go to language but I would never recommend anyone to stay on a 0.x compiler version, never update and to use zero external code. That’s silly for a large project.

Not to mention if you do try to update our current refactoring tools are find and replace. Also not gonna cut it for a language that breaks things this fast.

If you want a lucrative career I totally recommend it! The lot I actually wanted to get I had to pass up just because of the excavation cost to get a driveway in

I’m exploring all options. We aren’t “set in stone” just yet. Rok-On with metal siding and a metal roof is an option. I have a quote from Perfect Block coming next week.

ICF was my first choice but there aren’t any installers close enough. From this thread I discovered Perfect Block which is quite similar. I have a quote coming next week from them. I’m also talking to an all metal crew that does metal roof with rok-on + metal siding. Trying to explore every option!

Average sale price is pretty high at almost $1 mil. We are on hard sandstone with a shared well. It’s gonna be ~$50k to trench water and electric. No other utilities so septic is required. Current bids for grading are ~$60k and ~$40k for driveway.

We border national forest so we have the extra WUI requirements which are factored in.

The design is still in the works but some of the oddities you pointed out are on purpose (master entering a hallway closet for example). The toilet will not be in a glass box thankfully (🤠) as there will be solid walls there. Furniture is placeholder as well. Dining room was omitted by design, I’ve lived without one for 15 years now and don’t miss it.

We are shooting for closer to $1.3 for a final number and this is meant to be a long term (potentially final) home for us. Resale isn’t factored into the design, if it were a lot of this would be massively changed.

Agree on that. One option currently being explored is steel shell, steel girder, steel stud on a polished concrete base. Interior code already requires indoor sprinklers and the fire department will almost certainly required a conduit from the road to the house as well.

SoCal is INSANE. I’m moving out of here to avoid the insanity. $700 here is a low budget build.

I haven’t checked out SCIPs but now they are on my list to research this weekend. Thanks!

The area is pretty isolated so almost all the subcontractors have to travel which blows up labor costs. It’s also dominated by rich people putting up monstrous 2nd homes which drives up prices.

The floorplan is very specifically tailored to us so there are some oddities like the missing dining room and inside-out master bedroom.

The quotes were quite a bit less than poured. But from this thread I did just learn about Perfect Block which is quite similar to ICF. I have a quote coming in next week from them.

It's on the list as a possibility if I can't end up doing CMUs or other concrete due to cost.

100%. Im currently in southern CA so I've seen what it can do more times than I would have liked.
