The Foxes - Franz Marc (1913)
  • Looks like cubism. If so, it’s a way of expressing different 3D views into 2D, to put it very simply. If you like the composition here, perhaps you’d like Francis Picabia.

    What is a video game that you'd love to play, but no one has developed yet?
  • It’s one of their modules that’s meant for preliminary CFD with a simplified approach. I’ve only tried it a little tbh as it doesn’t have the control we required, but I can see how it’d feel accessible. Workbench is intimidating AF.

    The pythonic API was for controlling Fluent which is maybe what you used in school, also involved some Spaceclaim. Getting started on coding that was a puzzle and a half. Feels good now it’s solved though :’D

    What is a video game that you'd love to play, but no one has developed yet?
  • You’ve kinda answered your own question there. That’s what CAD is for. To create what you’re after, you’d be using the same backend capabilities which are already computationally expensive, mapped out within a game engine. The result would likely be an expensive bit of training/simulation software that’s redundant to both engineers and machinists, and out of the price range of any home builder.

    Accessibility is what you’re after, and I can sympathise. I think ANSYS Discovery was made with that in mind, and it’s available in the academic version.

    I generate models with code and use a pythonic API to automatically simulate them in testbed conditions. It wouldn’t be far off to create extra scenarios, but each time you make one it would take a bit of knowledge to put together.

    In Tyumen, Russia, someone set fire to a locomotive.
  • 112 connects to the same line as 999 in the UK.

    We also have 111 for non-emergency medical issues, and 101 for non-emergency police.

    ‘Darwin’s oak’ to be felled to make way for Shrewsbury bypass
  • The reason behind building around the farm seems to be something quite practical:

    “The myth was somewhat debunked last year when a recently unearthed documentary revealed that a geological fault, rather than an awkward farmer, was the real reason for Stott Hall, which lies west of Huddersfield, in West Yorkshire, being left in that peculiar location.”

    Which YouTuber's voice can lull you to sleep?
  • My wife puts on RyconRoleplays or ChristopherOdd in the background sometimes when she’s having trouble sleeping. Rycon might have the voice you’re looking for; Odd’s narration depends on the game he’s playing, he likes to set the mood in more atmospheric games, and he reads out every bit of lore.

    Clarkesworld is a sci-fi magazine with free audio versions on their site, plus on Spotify as a podcast. I’d recommend “The very Pulse of the Machine” personally as an intro. It was adapted into a great episode of “Love, Death + Robots”.

    Fahrenheit vs. Celsius vs. Kelvin
  • 20 isn’t cold at all, it’s perfectly warm.

    10 is nippy, but you still warm up quick after a few minutes walking, and get sweaty if you’re working on something.

    0 is cold enough for a couple layers. Jumper + jacket so you can take one off if you warm up too much.

    -10 doesn’t feel that much different to 0.

    -20 is time to put on a thicker coat over the jumper.

    Artemis and Iphigeneia
  • Thanks for the reply. Pretty surprised, with that surface quality paired with the detail, I’d have thought it to be resin. Imagine the larger dimensions help.

    Been weighing between a P1P or a resin printer. Maybe fdm isn’t so bad as long as it’s not printing minis.

    Artemis and Iphigeneia
  • There’s quite a bit of detail on the folds, was this on the X1C? What material is it? Did you need to do much post processing to get it to look this clean? What are it’s dimensions?

    Where is the best place to upload torrents?
  • Something new or unusual, with a hint of interesting. Say you came up with a way to use an established procedure to measure something in a way it hasn’t been before, and that data is genuinely interesting - that would be novel data.

    Why, as a male, when emotionally do I only feel accepted by women but not by men?
  • It’s not the gender being referred to as toxic, rather the societal expectation for men to behave a certain way - tougher, harder, to not show weakness through expressing emotion. Toxic masculinity can come from people of any gender.

    proud brain cell owner
  • Looks like he’s having a proper sage moment :’) “Duuude.. is this me having a realisation, or is it my brain cell.. what if he’s a pilot and my body his mecha, am I the brain cell having these thoughts”
