I’ve been impressed by how quickly gen-AI 3D models have become somewhat useful. I expected that with the significantly lower training data than text and images it would take longer, but maybe 3D files have a lot more tagging and metadata by virtue of being “new” compared to text and images, making them more useful for training AI?
As much as I enjoy modeling, I must admit I’m somewhat excited about a future where I can think up something to 3D print and not have to spend hours in Blender.
Yeah what does “substantially” mean in this context?
The context is laid out clearly. You earn one additional dollar and that one additional dollar puts you in the 33% tax bracket.
Your tax bill would go up by 33% of one dollar. $0.33. Total.
The question doesn't specify whether we're talking about total dollars paid or just how much the tax percentage increases in that bracket.
It’s irrelevant. Your “total dollars paid” in taxes would increase by $0.33, and the difference that extra dollar is taxed vs the previous dollar is $0.05. Neither of these are “substantial.”
This question simply asks whether 0: you have reading comprehension skills and 1: you understand how tax brackets work.
What?
The question isn’t loaded at all, it just tests whether people know how tax brackets work.
Y’all should watch Silo.
Nah man. There are uses for touchscreens in cars. Just don’t put everything there, and especially don’t put anything you’d need to use while actively driving in there.
But being able to have dynamic user interfaces is very useful for plenty of non-directly-driving-related features.
More accurately at conception everyone is sexless. No one has reproductive organs at conception.
That’s fascinating. I can totally understand your phobia (not that I feel it but it makes complete sense).
He’s not insulting them for being redditors.

How would a modern bot beat the blendo?
Full-body spinners do exist in Battlebots. But the competition in Battlebots far exceeds what existed in Robot Wars. The sport has evolved a lot. Also the power and weight limits are higher. Teams can afford to run heavier armor, and full-body spinners need to push lots of power to deal with that armor, but all of that power makes them just as likely to damage themselves by running into a wall.
A few examples of full-body spinners being their own worst enemies:
Captain Shrederator vs Riptide
Captain Shrederator vs Rotator
Captain Shrederator vs Huge (This one shows well how an unbalanced spinner is really hard to control. It manages to get air all by itself at one point.)
If a full-body spinner becomes unbalanced (like when part of its weapon breaks off) it becomes very difficult to control. And even when they’re controllable, they’re carrying an enormous amount of kinetic energy that isn’t contained very well, so often the best strategy against a full-body spinner is just to point your armor at them and let them destroy themselves.
It’s kind of sad, because they have a neat history in the sport, but these days everyone has a solid strategy to handle them, and you can’t change much on them to deal with different styles of bots.
I don’t think we’ll see many full-body spinners going forward.
In modern Battlebots, it would be practically useless. Full-body spinners have so many drawbacks, and even when they do manage to land good hits they’re just as likely to hurt themselves.
Blendo was amazing at the time, but the meta has evolved so much since then.
There’s also the Nazi of it all.
Such a shame. Dude makes funny content, too bad he’s a horrible person.
There was a “don’t use Amazon for a week” boycott thing at the beginning of March. It shocked me how quickly I lost the urge to just go order stuff the moment I thought of it. After the week was over I just kept not ordering stuff (with the exception of a subscription that came through).
Definitely at least helped me cut back.
