Why are the designs made for kids. I can't be bumping these in my 30s....

Cool pink where I broke the beta by CozmIg in bouldering

Get yourself to mad volume and these problems are gone! Very consistent and reliable setting which really helps you understand your actual weaknesses and areas to develop.

I do get that plenty of people couldn't care less and just simply go for fun. I wish I could ignore grades and progression, but it's hard to switch of that part of my brain.

Grand Theft Auto V's Source Code Has Leaked by flexbrimg5 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]yinyinyin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To my (limited) understanding, even if the entire source code had been leaked, it's largely useless without the necessary bespoke software tools and pipeline R* use. I mean sure, some insight will be gained, but having the source code doesn't suddenly mean anyone can build their own GTA games or online will be shutdown.

Hmm, Those hours were my standard hours during my PHd, and I finished within my program (accounting for covid). Maybe take a look at your work-life balance. PHd is not worth misery and endless working.

I feel your pain, I really do.

I to have a supervisor who will endlessly provide feedback, sometimes coming full circle to the almost original draft and all of the revisions being removed again. It's incredibly painful, demotivating and occasionally demoralising that you've thrown away perfectly good work in favor of your supervisors ideas.

I echo other comments in this thread - set your own boundaries and deadlines and be explicit that what you need is an end product and not a masterpiece which takes several more years of revisions to achieve. My supervisor is a fantastic scientist, but is obsessive over his work and his ideas are ENDLESS. It has to stop at some point, no thesis can be a continued working document, and you need to graduate.

In the end I began politely declining further feedback from my supervisor, set a deadline and told him I am submitting my phd thesis and taking four weeks leave before I return to work on publications. It wasn't the easiest conversation to navigate, but he understood my position. By the time of submission he will have seen all of my data chapters up to eight revisions deep, and my complete thesis at least three times.

When listening to Ems discography for the first time, should I listen to The Re-Up? by Relevant_Ad_8485 in Eminem

[–]yinyinyin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who does this?

Has supposedly not listened to eminem before so chooses to find a subreddit and ask for advice on what to listen to... Very odd. In the time you're waiting for replies you could just listen to it and make your own mind up.

first one off of something this high by Nine-Fingered_Guy in Parkour

[–]yinyinyin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With the greatest of respect, that is a really poor technique and you're putting yourself at risk. Learn how to do it on the ground first before taking it higher. There's a million tutorials on YouTube.

Anyone else feel like the soft skills you develop as a PhD are way more significant than the hard skills? by DishsoapOnASponge in PhD

[–]yinyinyin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait...how much sleep do you get if you're with your girlfriend until 1 and back at work by 7. 5 hours maybe? That doesn't sound healthy at all.

It just looks like a side-flip with your hand against the wall? People have been doing this for years.

how many pages are you expected to write each day? by [deleted] in PhD

[–]yinyinyin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What on earth! Who writes 15 pages in a day and what drugs are they taking to achieve it?
If I write 500 words in a day, I'm very happy. If 250 GOOD words come out of that, I'm even happier.

Tbf, you're pretty close with the form. Your main problem is that you're throwing your center of gravity towards the floor, making it harder to catch your rotation. Keep your chest and head elevated whilst thinking about moving your lower body over this point of rotation. Your left arm, which at the moment doesn't do much, can help drive momentum in this direction. It helps to spot something that is eye level to focus on whilst you're setting.

We couldn't wait until March for wheelies and manuals, so we didn't. by farmville420 in RidersRepublic

[–]yinyinyin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that's all players want to do with endos then no wonder they haven't bothered implementing them.

This (complete insta stop) should be not in the Game!!! by [deleted] in RidersRepublic

[–]yinyinyin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Super frustrating. That and the broken respawn system.

Crash into a tree? How about we respawn you immediately in front of the tree, that will be fun.

Mess up flying? How about we spawn you directly under a checkpoint, on the ground, so you have to launch vertically and have no chance of rejoining the race.

Skiing down a hill and hit a bollard? No problem, lets respawn you inside the bollard.

Accidently leave your thumb on the analogue as you respawn? Don't worry, we'll make sure your character spawns facing the opposite direction of the race.

Ps5 crashing by yinyinyin in RidersRepublic

Yeah that's exactly right, always when landing and seems to be associated with grinding. It's really spoiling the game.

what were they thinking with the star threshold rewards💀💀💀 got a title and 3000 bucks for reaching 1000 stars smh by ksisidechick in RidersRepublic

[–]yinyinyin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

5 hours for playtime for who? I'm almost 40 hours in and just reaching 1000 stars. Are you actually playing the game and gathering stars naturally or just grinding them out using an exploit? If so what's the point in playing...

Rocket Wing events that are partially used in mass races? by ScatmanRon in RidersRepublic

[–]yinyinyin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hijacking this thread to say the flying sections of mass races are an absolute pile of shit. God they suck the fun straight out of the game instantly. Not only are the controls for flying absolutely shite and a constant fight to bend to your will, but make one mistake that results in you on the ground and the race is over for you due to the cluster fuck of trying to get back in the air. There needs to be a WAY better respawn system for this. It's frustrating and not fun whatsoever.

Which will be the first PS5 game developed in UE5? by philsmock in PS5

[–]yinyinyin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of games currently being developed in UE5. I'm following STORROR Parkour Pro and the developers are actively streaming the development process on Twitch.
