during my 2024 break from youtube, I got this far with recreating the brm that niki lauda drove. It was lost to drive failure though. man I wish I had all that work now, because I don't think I have the patience to re-try this project

who ever decided there'd be the words "hypo" and "hyper" and that they'd mean the opposite, I hate you

hey game devs, allow your game to detect linux, and turn off your anti cheat, then sequester them to their own pool of players. We'll decide if we care about cheaters, just make it clear that you won't deal with the cheaters for linux players. We're adults, we can take it.

I think the reason Linus Torvalds is adamantly okay with AI usage in coding, is because he isn't in the trenches, reviewing slop code all the time. Plus he assumes that everyone will use it in a proper fashion I don't hate LLM usage, just bad usage of them.

drip (and not from the oilpan this time)

just doing some modding, and found a nice camera angle

nice, Labour just effectively cut capital gains tax.

only needs swaybars and a few tweaks, and then she'll be done

wow, by creators for creators? Fantastic, because patreon has been spamming me about how I should be sucking more money from people... .... FUCK!

I'm working hard, and this is hardly working. I'm kinda shocked at how much long this is taking me to make

fuck me, youtube now takes 45%? that's way too much

I've just had an idea. Why do car games use raster graphics for liveries? Almost all could be done with vector graphics, and be the resolution they need to be, based on how far away you are. Are vector graphics just that intense en masse?

so we have: -main menu -file saving -owned car list -custom configs -ability to start races can we have our race start with our cars? youtube.com/live/rIVGPvp...

The elfin mod is now live with a nondescript 4.0L i6, with turbo options www.beamng.com/resources/el...

hmm options

progress today

lol scammers are now going after the unemployed. They’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel now

slop food meets AI slop. I've noticed that Hungry Jack's computers are becoming less stable, and more jank as time goes on. Are they vibecoding their software?

lol already

Today I’m testing out KDEnLive as a competitor to Davinci resolve, except the playback is still really bad for me :/

bluesky feels a lot less corporate than twitter did, so I can't just make a tweet like, "which company wants to give me a 2000w PSU?" and get a few leads. On the flip-side, on bluesky, I feel less of a desire to doom scroll

I've not had real taste for about 3 weeks, but today I had a tiny bit. Here's hoping that it keeps returning, because food is one of the loves of my life I also can't tell if food is off, and my sense of smell has never been that good either

have you ever looked at buying first aid kits on amazon? All the listings seem to be a whole lot more interested in what you'll look like with the kit, instead of what's in it

so it's coming to the repo, but it's also on my patreon if you can't wait for them to approve it

I just had a small elective operation done, and if feels like I've been hit by a bus. Would not recommend

soon

I recon 1 more stream, and this beast will be done!

Aaand I’m live. Hopefully this mod is done today youtube.com/live/1qXKnd6...

lol what? why? no!

here's the new stoat server stt.gg/YkxDVKHa it's an alternative for discord, but it's only here for people who really want to leave, but I doubt discord is going anywhere, so the discord server is staying too tbh it's not as good, but I suspect it'll get better over time :)

setting up @stoat.chat as an alternative for discord, I have a bunch of suggestions though. I'd like to be able to "duplicate" channels, click and drag down the permissions pole, not have every new channel start in the first category, make permissions 'just' easier, etc. other than that? its good!

Not enough extensions

Whilst booting, inside of a double enclosure, the R630 is impressively loud

I wondered if the core count was the limiting factor for spawning cars Can I Play BeamNG on a $20 Server youtu.be/S5xEp08ShgY

Last night I tried to install arch. Never again

ebay, the company known for brutally going after their critics, even hiring the pinkertons, are kinda the best search engine currently. they do this weird thing, if you put in search terms, they'll only show listings with those search terms first, and separate 'similar' listings.

I used the wrong power cable with my thermaltake psu, and it let out the magic smoke. I love how no cables are labeled -_- If only my corsair psu wasn’t screaming like a banshee, none of this would have happened

this is the sort of thing we make on stream

TIL that some people still think that 'lol' is 'lots of love', and they'd assumed that I was being affectionate in messages I was sending. is this just an older generation thing, or does anyone else not know either? I feel more embarrassed than a writer on a disney star wars movie

yesterday @sa-power-networks.bsky.social were turning off people's solar, because their grids are poorly maintained This is one of the poorest places in South Australia, Davoren Park. I think people care more about solar, than them. Screw you SA powerless networks

Were these types of ribbon cables specifically designed to reduce repairability?

All plugged in, and all working 1) main pc 2) recording pc 3) 2nd server (1st server is just proxmox stuff, and 3rd server isn’t ready yet) I have a problem

so I powered through, fixed a bunch of things, and redid a bunch of materials for the R-4360 BeamNG mod. If you're a patreon member, let me know if you find any bugs, then I'll release it on the forums www.patreon.com/posts/r-4360...

doing my first GIT commit, though it's local, and I think it's hung, and isn't working.... isn't git meant to be easy? lol

I think I know how to make search engines good again. Put a confidence meter on your results, that way we know if what we're looking for is tricky, or you're just showing us the common trash results

Just one baggie of weed please

wow, it's as if dell really wanted people to stuff this up (see if you can spot the issue)

Starting the final part of repairs of my house next week. But I’ve been run ragged, preparing everything for them. Then after that, I have to paint it all

I how have a team of people working on suspension for the Elfin mod... I'm having to look into Git how screwed am I?
