Some things just aren't possible

Don't worry you don't really have to do this 😂 I was just poking fun at some discourse I saw on twitter over people interrogating models ripped from some game that had excessive polygon counts

Great for lowering the frame rate 😏

that sounds bad for burnout

I did a reverse image search, and theres like 20+ different websites that all have the same crap on them. Must be a weird mass scam thing

Ah Ryanair, I can see the cause for concern now

Yeah, and I'm not 14 enough to drink it

Thanks, I'll take a look!

I'm seriously considering finding out if I have it (pretty sure I do), just not looking forward to the waiting times. If the meds could help me be even a little more focused and productive, that'd be awesome lol

Favourite track in that game

I hope so, it feels that way sometimes lol

Yeah, that's called VC capital money, they want their investments back eventually, which is what we're seeing now

I imagine it's impossible to throw them away and you have to cut off the cat tags and stick them to your fridge

Dang, they're getting inventive

I didn't know grackles existed until I went to Texas two years ago. My wife and I both thought a car alarm was going off until we realised it was coming from one of those

This was done via automatic conversation in the interface, but in the code you could still directly set the rotation_degrees property? It made no sense, and I often feel the programmers on these open source projects just force their opinion on others because they think they know best

I still don't fully understand why they removed the rotation_degrees property from the editor. They said it was because we using radians was fine, but then they gave into demands asking for degrees to be supported again-

So now I'm finally able to use the regular builds without any weird custom modifications, which makes my life a lot less stressful when it comes to releasing new builds of the game

Eventually I figured I'd try and do something about it. I decided to ask chatGPT if it could write a python script to fix my files. I showed it the format and explained what I needed. Thankfully I only needed to tweak it once and it did the job, completely fixing my issue
