Some cars are going with entirely electrically actuated brakes, either inboard on on-hub, compared to the E-Tron which uses traditional hydraulically actuated brakes. One uses an electric motor to wind something to tighten the spring clip b

Exactly, they aren't good at creating new material. But many discussions in comment section are simply regurgitations of existing material, which they are good at rearranging. New novel discussions in places like this are actually a ve

Texture resolution and shadow resolution do a lot to make a game look better. The big difference between the PlayStation 2 and 3 was the massive jump in texture resolution, shadow resolution and model polygon count. Play Gran Turismo 5 and

Look at Nissan. Their CVTs are known to have an effective life of about 60,000 miles. Anything beyond that is betting against the reaper. Because of the way the transmission is mated to the engine (in order to reduce the overall size) most

Back when people still watched cable Street Outlaws was Discovery's biggest show for a while. It is an oddly specific thing, but a question I heard a lot about ten years ago. The two places where drag racing are biggest are Oklahoma an

The valvetrain and fuel injection systems of any given internal combustion engine vehicle made since the 1980s are far more complex than the voltage controller of an EV drivetrain. The difference is that those mechanical components are in a

When you do that you're supposed to classify the vehicle as an OHV, or off-highway vehicle. Problem is a lot of states don't actually do emissions testing, others don't do vehicle status inspection, and some don't do eit

One thing I do not understand is the sheer ridiculousness of the participation rate within the military. As you stated, many of these people in positions of command know exactly what they're violating, be it domestic law, international

Runescape as well. Gold farming for membership bonds severely stratified the game's economy and pushed people towards Oldschool Runescape. From the introduction of bonds until 2017 the number of bots raised at a rate unseen since the s

Where I live peaches are rare. It's all pears, oranges, and fruit cocktail. Not joking, there's five different variants of pears on the shelf at the grocery store, from sugar free to light syrup, and from three different brands. C

On the freelance side it's not much better. People who used to hire me back on project after project as a contractor aren't doing that anymore. I don't get replies stating what gaps in my skillset they're concerned about

That's the biggest reason why I stayed on Windows 7 for so long. I could run Blender for two or three days and not give a shit. Meanwhile my friends couldn't even play a game of Factorio without Windows hijacking the computer and

Well there's also assets. The bank can hold the value of land deeds or house loans for example. The house and the land it's on are tangible things that can be evaluated. Though I suppose that's a degree removed from printed b

It's not even about rebuilding. Some things when destroyed can never be recreated, like trust, oceanliners, or the practice of Dísting. The initial event of destruction creates an expectation that it will happen again. Once it does hap

Which is the way it's supposed to work. You keep enough for daily transactions, because the expectation of multiple large scale withdrawals happening either in short succession or simultaneously is the most unlikely scenario to happen

I'm sorry, excellent GUI with Blender? With the 2.5 interface things were ass backwards but you had a bunch of stuff you could do with only the mouse. With the 2.8 interface suddenly a bunch of stuff was hidden behind arcane key combin

Most commonly used for paint or to colour bricks, yes. It's disgusting, but the British and Italians didn't really care at that point because anthropology and archaeology were not respected professions in the 1820s. They were just

Mortgages are necessary unless you want to continue to rent. Single story two bedroom houses are selling for $250,000, while the people paying for them make $60,000 a year. People can't buy those outright. Meanwhile to rent the same th

The way you get out of that loop is by creating immense pressure from the outside until the governing system breaks, then supervising the reconstruction as an outside power until it can function by itself again. The issue is that there&#x27

If I remember my graphics accelerator history correctly per-vertex lighting using Gouraud shading was the method SGI made standard with OpenGL in 1992, before 3DFX and ATI came in and made per-pixel via Blinn-Phong just as computationally e

There's been symptoms of it that have shown up such as the colloquially called "piss filter" and the the anime mole nose problem, but so far they've been symptoms rather than a fatal expression of a disease. That they ar

Ahhh. So you used a wrapper or a library? Interesting then. I had assumed that almost every rendering method enables frustrum, occlusion, and backface culling by default if only to clear the number of objects needed to be tracked in memory.

by Tanoc 6mo ago
Backface culling has been common since the late 1990s when we started using face normals to determine lighting rather than per-vertex lighting. Pretty much every 3D game engine since about 2004 has included and enabled it by default. How is

Art is a form of communication. You turn to the arts when the other methods to communicate something either do not feel as if they fit, or feel that they will not encompass the idea you wish to convey. Art is a dialogue with other people, n

No. I have a copy of Flash CS3 for helping with archival efforts or digging into Skyrim and Fallout 4 when friends ask though. As far as I know it's the last version that accepts all three versions of Actionscript.
