I believe the devs were also using this as kind of a tech demo too? Not sure I'm remembering right, but I recall them saying they have other similarly cat themed works planned and were using Stray to show off the animation/visual chops they were working on.

Sounds about right. Its a nice one-shot experience. I didn't realise it was 45 bucks now, that seems quite steep IMO.

Worth mentioning that we're also about halfway on the average time for these big features to hit significant saturation, like with PhysX. It's pretty common for a GPU (and sometimes CPU/Chip set) to take 3-4 generations to trickle down enough through new products and used product sales to have decent enough depth/usage. At this point depending on how Apple is handling ray tracing, they might slow down the transition away from rasterized.

Worse, expensive coffee that tastes mediocre, but they insist they were the first ones to add flavourings to it.

I know Epic gets a lot of hate, but this is definitely a possible worst case outcome. Hopefully anything but this happens instead.

Unfortunately, nope.

Did you by chance edit those in? I had only seen the one link about hand dryers, so either my app bugged or you edited 🤷‍♂️

Don't forget the mods! They make a big difference IMO.

Yes I'm sure the multiple countries that use them don't have a fixation on being clean or anything at all, and are very pleased with blasting shit particles around. ^^/s

I think you've been collecting shit square systems then. Try an actual set of Robertson screws with a Robertson driver, and you'll have a very different experience. Squares have no taper, Robertson's do. This is also assuming where ever you find them, they have named them correctly, but I swear they ain't the same.

[–] QueriesQueried 3 points 1 year ago

Because they aren't the same, or compatible with eachother really. I use them a lot and can almost promise you the problem is when you involve the "square" one's at all. Robertsons all have a taper, so you can kinda use square bits/screws either each other, but they will chew the shit out of each other. Squares will always slip/strip, Robertson is far better IME.

Hey now, you can't just lump Robertson and "Square" as the same ones, one is assuredly better and it sure as shit as not square. Robertsons have a slight taper that prevent the bit from slipping out, and the stupid square ripoff has 0 angles. So if you use Robertson bits on a square screw, it gets super fucked, and if you swap it basically doesn't work at all. If you use Robertson for both, its fucking magic.

TLDR: Square bits not same. Square bit bad. Robertson good.
