Thank you! That makes much more sense.

We used these in my elementary, middle, and high schools, and I went to HS in the mid 2010’s! And we did still do drills with them.
I’ve got 3D pipes running on my spare Win10 machine :) fills me with nostalgia every time I see it, even still
Yeah, it’s certainly a good thing it doesn’t hail in the outback lmao
Exactly. And what’s worth remembering is that solar cars tend to be something like 2X longer then normal cars, and cover the entire surface except for windshield with panels. No rear windshield, either.
You’re absolutely right - still absurdly shaped pancakes and they can’t reach highway speeds when powered on solar power alone. They do reach road speeds nowadays but they’re allowed to charge during and after race time (regulations are pretty confusing). I was on a solar car team a few years back.
Doesn’t provide enough power for the cost of the cells, plus having to clean and upkeep them. And the more material you cover them with (to protect them; solar cells are INCREDIBLY fragile), the less efficient they are. I was on a solar car team in college and the cells are so fragile that to clean them, we had to use new microfiber cloths every time. Any dust would scratch and ruin them (which made it quite tough when I drove across the outback in the thing). We kept our cells completely uncovered because we needed maximum efficiency - but even with a super light carbon fiber solar car that’s got very minimal tire contact patches, specialized tires from Bridgestone, and a very aerodynamic shape (plus no amenities like A/C), I think our car could sustain something like 10-15 km/h on a perfectly sunny day in the middle of the outback. It just doesn’t add enough on a huge, heavy EV
Tenth person to say it… but thank you :)
We need more OPs like this, kudos
the fitness gram pacer test is a multistage…
I’ll let you guess if that was my most or my least favorite

Love it, congrats on 4 years! It’s awesome to have at least one creator posting their own comics directly on Lemmy :)
I tried fusion360 last week and it was broken; some big update they released broke it and now I just gagged to wait for it to get fixed, I guess. Will try it again in a month or so asked are if it’s fixed… but I’ve always had awful luck getting wine working. Same w/ photoshop
Honestly, kinda glad that my win10 PC “doesn’t have the specs” to run win11. Stupid, because I’m running an 18-core Xeon w/ 128 gigs of ram and a 2070 super, but of course the stupid TPM chip. But oh well, guess I won’t be able to get ads on my own product.
The bummer is I’ll likely need to install it on something because I occasionally need to go back to windows to use certain programs… maybe someday wine will work well enough to actually use reliably…
Sure thing! I tend to over explain things anyways, lol
Easiest GitHub install I have ever done - works well on both Linux and windows per my own testing. Go onto the Automatic1111 stable-diffusion-webui github and find the git clone link, and then, from a command shell, use “cd” to get into your directory of choice and then do a “git clone <link>”. After that, go into said folder and literally just run the webui.bat/.sh file (might be called webui or might be called setup, can’t remember). That’s it - it should install all of the packages and python stuff and everything for you, and from there, honestly just fuck around with it for a while. On Linux, I had to install a few extra things/screw around a bit to get it working fully, but it wasn’t too tough. I highly recommend also installing the “dynamic prompts” extension and playing around with wildcards and such. Civitai has some great models and LoRAs you can play around with, too - Dreamshaper is a great one. If you’ve not got a 4000-series GPU, I would suggest editing the webui-user.bat/sh file and adding “—medvram” or “—lowvram” to help you get higher res images at the cost of a little bit of speed. Let me know if you’ve got any more questions! If nothing else, it’s honestly just a lot of fun to use.
Shitty k8s cluster/space heater?
The bastards are taking away my damn shampoo and I’m furious!
