2024.06.09 10:46 Aspergenic Octopus Energy NEW June Referral Link: £50 When You Switch & Upto 40% Of Your Bills With Tracker (UK)

https://share.octopus.energy/wheat-frog-223
If anyone is looking to change energy supplier I highly recommend Octopus. They are honest and transparent, and by far the best supplier I've been with over the years, and I've been with more than my fair share. They have plenty of tariffs to chose from, so there is something for everyone.
Plus if you use our referral link we each get £50 off our energy bill! The offer is still active as of April so switch and save whilst you can.
Once you are signed up you can choose which tariff is right for you and save a bunch of money. Here's a few of their most popular tariffs:
Octopus Tracker - This is the one a lot of people are talking about and it has even made it on Money Saving Expert! This is the one we currently use and has saved us thousands since we've been on it. It tracks the wholesale price of electricity and gas and has been about 40% cheaper than the current standard variable rate for a while now. Prices on the tracker can go up as well as down but even last year the average was still lower than the government price guarantee and every standard variable rate, even through the thick of the energy crisis.
Octopus Flux Import - Power your home with 100% renewable energy on this Octopus Energy electricity tariff designed exclusively for solar and battery owners.
Agile Octopus - With Agile Octopus, you get access to half-hourly energy prices, tied to wholesale prices and updated daily. The unit rate is capped at 100p/kWh (including VAT). Recently there have been a few days when prices have been negative, so you get paid to use energy! This is a great tariff for those who's can shift their energy usage easily.
Octopus Go - The smart EV tariff with super cheap electricity between 00:30 - 04:30 every night.
Cosy Octopus - Cosy Octopus is a heat pump tariff with six hours of super cheap electricity every day to warm your home.
Octoplus - On top of everything else Octopus offer, they are also relaunching their Octopus energy saving incentive, Octoplus, where you get paid to use less energy during peak times over the winter. Whilst this is a winter incentive, you also get extras for being an Octopus member all year round, such as a free Greggs drink each week and currently free tickets to National Trust sites. Also reduced price cinema tickets.
No other energy supplier doing anywhere near as much as Octopus are for their customers. If you think one of these tariffs may be right for you and your family then click on the referral link and we can both benefit from it!
Switching is so easy these days. Just click the link, full in your details and Octopus will handle the rest.
Enjoy your day!

2024.06.09 10:17 DeeHayze Vented cylinder hot water system..

I've just bought a house.. I've only previously lived in houses with a gas boiler, that gives instant on demand hot water for taps, and radiators..
My new place has a massive hot water tank, with a electric heating element on a timer.
I set the timer to heat the water in the morning, then everyone has a shower.. Great, no problem...
But, for the rest of the day, I only need a little hot water for occasionally washing hands, or washing a few dishes.. It seems a massive waste to heat all this water, just for the little I need the rest of the day.
As a test of the Insulation, I turned it on 30 minutes, so the water was hot.. Then I turned it off, and went to bed.. 7 hours later, it was stone cold.
Is this normal, or is my insulation crap!?
This thing seems to be sucking a fortune out of the electric meter.
Living in the UK, can't decide if I should accept it for what it is, or rip it all out and replace with a gas boiler, or maybe try and get a grant for a heatpump.

2024.06.09 10:17 Unable_Mycologist_60 Water leaks into car

Water leaks into car
Daihatsu charade 1990 (sedan)
The drains are clear from the front. But the sides have some type of foam in them. I am not sure if they’ve done this to stop a bigger leak? Or what the purpose is bc that area is supposed to be clear of things. Kind of want to remove the foam but also don’t want to fuck anything up. + there is electrical wires on the other side so if they did try to cover something then I don’t want a bunch of water getting to the electricity 💀
The driver side picks the water up pretty good with the drains but the passenger side it kind of avoids the drain and goes onto the metal and towards the black seam.
Any help will be appreciated since this is my first car

Cast iron gas stoves in KL
As the title says, is there any stores in KL that sells these cast stoves? I've checked with MrDIY and Ace Hardware and they don't sell these.
I wanna avoid online purchasing if possible and prefer to see the product myself before purchasing them.

2024.06.09 10:05 Shi144 Egotism vs Altruism

Dear Broadchurch fans, I have posted a series of rewatches of season 1 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadchurch\_series\_1) of Broadchurch. Now I find it is time to review some of the prevalent themes within the series. Please be aware that I will discuss season 1 as a whole, so there may be spoilers ahead.
If you enjoy reading this essay, feel free to stop by my AnalysisVault to see if you find some more of my work to your liking. Please note that this subreddit is read only and comments should be made with the original posts rather than the cross-posted ones.

Egotism vs Altruism
One of the more prevalent themes in Broadchurch is the question of egotism vs altruism. I will give you a short overview of both concepts as well as the spectrum they represent, then speak about their implementation in the series and finally make a statement about why the makers chose to make it a central theme.

Wikipedia states:
Egotism is defined as the drive to maintain and enhance favorable views of oneself and generally features an inflated opinion of one's personal features and importance distinguished by a person's amplified vision of one's self and self-importance. It often includes intellectual, physical, social, and other overestimations. The egotist has an overwhelming sense of the centrality of the "me" regarding their personal qualities.
In essence, egotism is the personal philosophy of “me first”. A person with strong egotistical tendencies will make sure their own needs are met before those of others. Think, if you will, of the people who will take the best slice of cake for themselves or drive a gas guzzler out of convenience or cut the line at the airport to get the best seat. All of these are egotistical actions. On the other hand, some egotism is warranted for self-preservation. The parent who gives their all for their children but runs themself ragged in the process may need to exercise more egotism. The health care professional who routinely skips their break to care for never-ending patients may want to be more self-preserving by being more selfish. Things like that. In general, society views egotistic action and unfavorable while oftentime people with egotistical traits tend to be more successful in certain areas of life.

Altruism is the principle and practice of concern for the well-being and/or happiness of other humans or animals above oneself. While objects of altruistic concern vary, it is an important moral value in many cultures and religions. It may be considered a synonym of selflessness, the opposite of selfishness.
In essence, altruism is the personal philosophy of “others first”. A person with strong altruistic tendencies will make sure the needs of others are met before their own. Think, if you will, of the people who will hand out food to others happily but forget to get any of their own, take great strides to pick up trash in a local park or offer up their seat for a disabled person on the bus. All of these are altruistic actions. In general, society views altruism as beneficial and a trait to strive for while oftentimes people with altruistic traits tend to be less successful and may feel taken advantage of.

Basically, egotism vs altruism is the Captain Kirk vs Mr Spock discussion. Spock says: “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few”, goes into a highly irradiated engine room to save the Enterprise and dies in the process. Kirk says “The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many” and risks war with the Klingons because he can’t live without his buddy.
However, every action has aspects of both in them. Each action every person takes has both egotistic and altruistic nuances to them. The interesting part is where the balance falls. I will let you decide for yourself which way the pendulum swings on the following examples.
Some examples:
The healthcare worker who overworks themselves acts in an altruistic way because they support patients and help them get better. But they are also egotistical in their own way because being “the supportive one” strokes their ego.
The person who drives the gas guzzler acts in an egotistic way because they pollute the environment unnecessarily, take up a lot of space with their vehicle and probably stink up the place with their fumes. But they might also have an altruistic aspect because they need to move large groups of people, feel they are supporting an industry that gives jobs to workers or even further the economy by spending money.
The person handing out food but not taking any for themselves can be very altruistic but depending on the person they can be very egotistic instead, for example when they decide to hog the table, demand ever-lasting gratitude for their “sacrifice” and/or post their actions on social media for clout.
Finally, a person who writes lengthy analyses and posts them on Reddit may appear altruistic because they attempt to enrich the lives of others with their observations and (hopefully) witty posts. They may also be egotistic in an attempt to garner attention and positive reinforcement through the community they choose to post in.

Implementation in the series:
One of the great things about the series is the fact that they are aware of the different sides of egotism and altruism and allow the viewer to form their own opinion. Hardly ever is anything said bluntly, most of the time we are left to figure out things of our own. We see the way the characters act, we see the way they interact and are interacted with and we are left to make our own decision. Hardly ever are things black and white, hardly ever are we given the one true answer ™.
This is one of the main reasons the series is as emotionally impactful as it is. Because life is messy. Life isn’t neat. Life isn’t simple. Stories with simple and clear answers are not realistic because life doesn’t work that way. Think about it. In the last decade or so there were a lot of shows and movies looking deeper into the question of fairy tale villains and whether they were villains at all. Star Wars does this masterfully by looking at Anakin Skywalker’s arch. He seems like a clear-cut villain in episode 4, the first to hit the screens, but as more of his story is revealed, he becomes much less cartoonishly evil.
In fact, the idea of egotism vs altruism is the driving factor in the various aspects of the investigation the detectives conduct. Look at the different suspects, if you will. All of them have (at the very least) some very egotistical behaviors. Steve Conelly, con man and maybe psychic is getting a feeling of importance when passing on his “messages” to the great expense of Beth Latimer, among others. Mark Latimer is so very much wrapped up in his selfishness he neglects just about everyone around him unless caring for them fulfills his needs. Nigel Carter engulfs himself with righteous anger against Jack Marshal, not for the community but seeking Mark’s approval. Paul Coates revels in the attention he and his church gain from the case. Susan Wright is so eager to protect herself, she harms others pre-emptively. Jack Marshal, the man who slept with a child, then married her. No 40-year-old man would do that for selfless reasons.
All of the suspects we are presented in the show are – in one way or the other – selfish. And that’s perfect. Murdering a child is an inherently selfish action. The true joy of the show comes with finding out that the murderer is a man who we are made to perceive as deeply selfless.
Let’s take a look at Joe Miller and how he is portrayed on the show. As I have stated in the various rewatch posts, most of the time Joe Miller is shown as loving, caring and genuinely supportive parent and partner. As u/Vioralarama stated so well in my post about episode 5, “He's got the plot armor of the supportive spouse who handles all the emotional work for the person working the crime.” On the surface, he does. Every time we see Joe Miller, he is seen with a member of his family. And every time he is seen he is doing some sort of supportive work for them.
Case in point, when Joe and DS Miller invite DI Hardy to their home for dinner, Joe does it all. Puts the kids to bed, prepares dinner, does the dishes. He tries to mediate between DI Hardy and DS Miller, too, and makes a great effort to lighten the mood.
Once you look below the surface, though, things look entirely different. We see glimpses here and there that things are not what they seem, mostly through things we DON’T see rather than the things to DO see.
Joe Miller shows some worrying signs of being a neglectful parent and partner quite early on in the show. To pick up the example of the dinner experience, when DS Miller leaves the room, Joe Miller uses the time he has alone with DI Hardy to probe him for information. If he truly were the supportive husband the show wants us to believe, he would’ve used that time to help both find common ground in their working relationship. DI Hardy is the one who brings that up and asks about whether DS Miller likes him. The conversation is cut short though as Joe Miller filled the narrow time slot with questions about the case and didn’t leave DI Hardy enough to ask about how to improve his working relationship with DS Miller. Case in point, DS Miller keeps complaining that DI Hardy addresses her as “DS Miller” instead of “Ellie”. This would have been a great talking point for Joe Miller in that moment, asking “why” and mediating between them. Also, did Joe Miller make a dinner invitation to help DS Miller and DI Hardy form a working relationship or did he do it to garnish information?
More examples:
When DS Miller and Joe Miller tell Tom Miller about Danny’s passing, both leave him alone in his bedroom. Neither offer a shoulder to cry on. Sure, DS Miller is just as responsible as Joe here but Joe is the stay-at-home parent and therefore the more direct caretaker than DS Miller. Also, over the course of the show we never see Joe actually engaging with Tom, there is no attempt at comforting him, not even when he is obviously distraught. Joe Miller lets Tom out of his sight at the Arcade in episode 5, right in the middle of the “pedophile panic” surrounding Jack Marshal. Just in general, Tom spends a LOT of time wandering the town alone. This image doesn’t sit well with the façade of caring, loving, altruistic father.
Indeed, the filmmakers are pulling one over our eyes with Joe, who turns out to be one of the most egotistic persons in the town. Joe spends time and family money on Danny, he breaks into a holiday hut to do so, manipulates the boy with abuser language and, when threatened to be deprived of his attention, gets so angry he strangles the boy. Whom he still believes to be his son’s best friend. And who is his best friend’s son. The same best friend he then begs for praise because he didn’t drop the body into the ocean so he didn’t have to spend years wondering what happened to the boy.
But why do the filmmakers do this? The series REVELS in red herrings, side plots, dead ends and misdirection. The greatest misdirection they can give us is showing us the “perfect” man and making him turn out to be the most terrible one of all. It’s an emotional gut punch and the type of storytelling that works really well with the type of story they want to convey. Because the story of Broadchurch is not about Danny’s murder, it’s about the fallout that follows. A community like this learning that one of their “best people” is indeed a child murderer has to have a terrible ripple course through it, upsetting it deeply.
With so many other characters filling the “egotism” bill, we are offered a view beyond the picturesque coastal town in Dorset, England, where things look perfect, harmonious and just lovely. The series revels in showing us this image and dissecting it piece by piece, looking deeper and deeper into the cesspool of secrets and bad decisions. As such, the viewer is given the change to observe the deep hurt inflicted upon the more altruistic characters – most of which happen to be women – by the egotistic characters – many of which happen to be men. It is the direct and even more terribly indirect hurt that is inflicted upon the altruistic ones that gives the story the emotional impact it has.
Case in point, Beth Latimer and DS Miller both are exploited by their husbands and end up not only dealing with the direct fallout of their respective actions but hurt to a point they cannot even rely on each other anymore. They are both stripped of the delusion of happiness and family being their haven. They are also both stripped of a friendship which could supply each with a friend who “gets it”. Heck, just for the fun of it the makers toss in Susan Wright, a woman who has been so terribly hurt by her husband that she became jaded enough to “join the other team”. She has become the egotistic abuser her husband was simply because she (probably) used to be altruistic. Her experience with her husband, the police and the loss of her kids have kicked her to the other side of egotism simply out of a deep need for self-preservation.
Before the question comes up, no, the series is not about men vs women, or men = bad, women = good. And neither is this post. There are egotistic women in the story, like Karen White, Susan Wright or Becca Fisher. There are altruistic men in the story, too, like DI Hardy. But the trend is quite distinct. In my own personal experience this comes from the general societal expectation that women should be altruistic and work for the group. An expectation that is not socialized as thoroughly in men. The show picks up on this and showcases it to great effect, placing a great emphasis on the price some women are made to pay for following this expectation.
Finally, the question of egotism vs altruism is a thinking point the viewer is left to ponder with beyond the end credits of the last episode. The discussion of who is what and how much can keep the viewer’s mind busy for some time. Several people on this sub posted they hated Mark Latimer’s selfishness, and many commenters agree. If you ask me, this is a great result for a series, making the viewers contemplate things such as this beyond the actual viewing experience.

2024.06.09 10:03 sleepy_goat97 Have appointment coming up, but very little money to pay for it.

Ok, I need a bit of advice here. I’m (27F) and I currently live alone, and make $2,100 roughly a month. I have an eye doctor appointment on the 18th this month and it’s something I need done very badly as I haven’t been to see the optometrist for about three years now and am very low on my contact refills.
I have eye insurance through my current job, but this is a new job that I started two months ago and I don’t know yet what the copay for the appointment is going to be or how much new contacts and an eye exam are going to cost me.
My current monthly expenses break down like this:
Rent: $450
Gas (vehicle): $120 roughly
Internet: $101
Car insurance: $101
Personal loan: $45 (I owe $345 left on an initial $500 amount)
Electric: $73
Water: $55
Groceries: $350 roughly
Renters insurance: $14
Storage unit: $45
I got a speeding ticket a few weeks ago and I haven’t yet paid it, it’s not due until July 24th. It’s for $230.
I’m really stressing here because I’m trying very hard to stay within a tight budget but there’s always something that happens to me once a month and I end up overspending and living paycheck to paycheck.
My eye doctor appointment and my speeding ticket are weighing very heavily right now. I’m afraid to ask my parents if I could borrow $200 for the appointment (I’m figuring in copay amount, plus ordering new contacts) because I know they will tell me to figure it out on my own.
I’m considering taking out another personal loan to help pay ONLY the speeding ticket and my appointment but I’m certain that’s not the right thing to do but I don’t feel like I have other options right now.
I’ve already paid the rent for this month, plus groceries for the next week and a half. I’ve got my car insurance, water, and electric bills due this week and I don’t get paid again until the 20th.
Right now I have $430 sitting in my bank account. I did buy fast food after I got paid because I was craving it so badly and I also bought my sister a baby shower gift which costed me about $75 total.
Should I take the personal loan to get me by? What do I do?

2024.06.09 09:47 Potential_Thought_88 Help with 2000 Chevy blazer

My 2000 Chevy blazer has been leaking gas. I need help diagnosing what the problem is, or at the least an idea. The only idea I have is the fuel line, the fuel pumps were recently replaced. It only leaks when the car is on, so does that rule out a leak in the tank itself? I want a general idea before I have it towed to a shop that’s gonna charge me to look at it anyways. Any help would be sincerely appreciated

2024.06.09 09:47 ukpfukpf Does the new 'triple lock' pledge from Labour instill confidence in HENRY folks?

Labour will reportedly promise not to raise income tax, national insurance or VAT for five years if the party wins the general election. So corporations, oil &gas, schools are already in line for hikes, maybe banks too.
I know the majority of posters in this sub are perhaps not a fan of labour. What does this commitment make to your views? Hollow electioneering or firm basis for an interesting leadership term?
Disclosure: I'm apolitical and bored based on issues rather than parties. I'm leaning towards libdem this time as labour and green has no chance in my area and I can't bring myself to vote tory now.

2024.06.09 09:42 Nemurian06 Hoenn or Sinnoh for a Fanfic?

The general premise of my story so far is that a young man is isekaid to the Pokémon world after succumbing to toxic gas inhalation. He dies a hero, having pulled half a dozen people out of the building before he collapsed- but he still dies. (Part of his arc is going to be realising why 'heroes' don't tend to live too long, unless they learn when to let people go.)
He's then dropped onto a volcano, and taken in by a pack of Salazzle. (He's young enough to be considered a kid by them, and in this fic Salazzle operate by hyena rules, so they're mostly chill with him.)
The issue is that I can't decide between having it set in Hoenn, and him being dropped on Mt Chimney, or him being dropped on Mt Stark in Sinnoh. Here's my main points:
  1. Magma and Aqua are going to be the main antagonist teams, and Zinnia is going to play a large part in the story. If the story is set in Hoenn, then their normal plans unfold. If its set in Sinnoh, then the story is set after their plans fail, and all three of them are instead trying to use Spear Pillar to achieve their goals. Archie is interested in Dialga, to reverse time and restore his idea of the "natural" world before humans gained power. Maxie is interested in Palkia, who could change the natural habitat to make it more favourable to humans. Zinnia is still trying to summon Rayquaza, but hopes that an even higher tower will work better than Sky Pillar (Which went very poorly.)
  2. If set in Hoenn, no other evil teams are involved. If set in Sinnoh, Team Galactic IS involved, and serves as a contrast, showing that although they are villains, both Maxie and Archie are acting out of personal grief, not heartlessness. (Both are horrified at Cyrus when their teams clash.)
  3. At some point, the protagonist is unable to cope with the humans around him, and runs off into the wilderness. If in Hoenn, he runs into the forest and bonds with a group of Lucario. If in Sinnoh, he runs into the icelands- he still bonds with Lucario, but it's a far greater challenge, and icy landscapes scratch a real itch in my mind. Additionally, his fire-type Pokemon at the time has to learn to hone their powers far more than they would in a forest.
  4. Though they don't yet have a defined place in my story, the Champion will at some point be involved. I do love Steven, and he's a joy to write, but Cynthia steals hearts by breathing. She's an INCREDIBLY iconic character and it could be even more fun to write her.
  5. If he's dropped on Mt Chimney, then he'd spend some time at Flannery's gym, and bond with both her and her Grandfather. As the protag just got a fire-type Pokémon, this could be incredibly helpful for his development.
  6. If he's dropped on Mt Stark, though, he'd head down to the resort. This would likely result in me making some more OCs, which can be a bit hit-or-miss, but he could get some advice from a wide variety of sources. ALTERNATIVELY, since Flannery is stated to be looking for Heatran, she could also be hanging around the resort, and have her still be present.
  7. I don't have a very strong preference of professors, but I do like Birch more than Rowan. This may be other pokefics colouring my view, but Birch feels warmer and more friendly to me, which would suit the story better,
  8. In terms of the map- I'm honestly not sure which I prefer. I'm an artist first and foremost, so the setting is quite important to me. Lavaridge town is my favourite area in Hoenn, and could be a great home base, but the Sinnoh icelands (And Mt Coronet) are something that Hoenn has no equivalent for. However, Hoenn has a cozy, vibrant feel that I REALLY like. While the story can get bleak, the overall vibe is warm and hopeful, and I feel like Hoeen suits that more.
  9. Zinnia and the Draconids are quite a large part of the story. If set in Hoenn, the protagonist eventually gets to see the Draconid caves for himself, and Zinnia is far more sure of herself. If set in Sinnoh, Zinnia is affected greatly by being homesick for her clan, and is far less confident after already failing to call Rayquaza once. I think I like her more subdued characterisation more- she's still reeling from being rejected by Rayquaza, and that makes her more nuanced. Also, with the meteor approaching, she's becoming more desperate by the day.
My current leaning is towards Sinnoh in terms of plotline- the idea of Archie, Maxie, and Zinnia having already failed their plans once could add dimension to their characterisation, and the plot would be far more complex with three different evil teams to keep track of (As well as being less predictable, since it wouldn't follow the games.)
However, Hoenn takes the edge for the cozy factor, and for the beginning. The protagonist coming down from Mt Chimney and chilling in Lavaridge for a while is an introduction I really quite like, and I don't think I like the resort as much in vibes.
So this text wall is my current thoughts. Now I ask- what region do you think would be better? Do you think having so many evil teams could add complexity, or just get too messy? Especially when Team Galactic, who is meant to be the main villains, isn't the main focus?

2024.06.09 09:30 -CORSO-1 1x Godot Super Wizard (Revshare) Flashy & pretty remake, 90's Top Down, super/hypercar racer with bizarre twist.

(OPEN & LOOKING)

Hello!
LONG POST! Image heavy (and shitty loading times). 5 Pages! Apologies for the length, trying to pre-empt your questions and show fixed scope.

Request:

One person with excellent, higher-order programming skills in Godot GDScript who could pair with my graphics and programming abilities for a highly popular 1990's game title, top down racer remake.

Game Synopsis:

Single player, Super Cars Clone but more realistic + crazy + more detailed and prettier graphics. With 1990’s styling and Roguelite-ish collect & combat precepts throughout.
Image set

Citing the Original Game:

Explanation video of Super Cars 2, 1990’s charm: Descriptive Video
Just flick through these next two videos, no need to watch to completion. This is to show you how dated they are.
Long Play video of original Game: Amiga Super Cars 2:
Earlier Super Cars 1: Long Play Video

Proof of Concept Test Video:

Here is a proof of concept video with artwork (no props except for road elevation).
Concept Video

Proof of Concept, Playable Game:

You can download and play it here. Do note: Road elevation changes marked by Red and Green rectangles on track, in case you’re confused about varying accelerations. AI is hypershit.
Playable Game Link
Some of the old video’s on there show the lo-res flippers, water cannons, pits, pins, rough roads, trains, etc, in working order.

Synopsis of Theme:

You are an up and coming racecar driver. It is the 1990's when flamboyant super cars, daring films(James Bond esq) and thrilling car races are all the buzz. Catching this excitement, a movie studio has noticed your driving talent. During a racing season, you'll be given access to 'unique' races at movie locations. Ie: "Blues Brothers Mall scene", or driving through a mine site with giant excavators and blasting of rock walls for that all important movie-shot. Or, many other weird and unusual prop-heavy locations, like a slime factory, or an industrial petrochemical plant complete with fiery explosions and other such spectacular events. To achieve access to these, you need to prove your worth on the daily race track. Many are non-ordinary tracks. They'll have things like giant water canons to push you around, wobbling roads, uneven rocky tracks, dips, jumps, giant pinball flippers, oil firing canons, trains and other devices all while in furious and intense competition with other NPC drivers.
Be forewarned, the video’s below show a distinct lack of polish. Ie: skidding-black level on packed dirt, no inertia correction in skid, no proper power to gear ratio etc, etc.
Mine Site and Prop Test Free Drive:
This one would be more or less representative of a special type track (due to location).
Katawarra mine
Plugin Functionality test:
Plug-In, Multi-Prop-Installations (shopping centre test), farmland, pushroads and cutaway view of mountains.
Plug In Building Test
And have another jungle track for good measure.
Jungle scene free-drive

Overview of Game ‘Chunks’:

Some Cars
Ok. in absolute brief: You start at ‘D’ category, have access to those cars and parts at that level. Above, cars on the left are ‘D’, then the next two are ‘C’, then next two are ‘B’, ‘A’, and the last two are ‘Ultra Class’ category. Each Category is an entire season of 10 tracks each. Including special event tracks.
On the roads, there are props, you plough into them for rewards, and special things called ‘chits’. Props are fences, oil drums, wood piles and anything that looks like it needs a good smashing.
Ultimately, Chits are used in a mini game (like Wheel of Fortune), to earn higher grade parts, cash prizes and even a better car than your current season’s level cap.
There’s a parts shop, a car shop, a Tv studio(for the WoF bit) and your assembly garage.
When you complete a season, if you make it into the top 3 racers at the end, you can upgrade to the next season D -> C. That means better and faster cars, higher grade engine parts, more challenging drivers, more tracks and bigger prizes on the Wheel of Fortune spin mini game. And you keep going until you reach Ultra class, where you’re driving monstrous hypercars against the best to win the entire full season.
It is meant to be a difficult game, just like the original. Practice makes Perfect.

Market Expectations:

Do note: Top down racers are NOT big money earners, so don't expect a huge audience. We would probably be lucky to fit just Below 'Make Way' at position 15.
Steam stats

What Happened and why am I doing this:

Me: Senior IT Manager. (BMech Eng.). + Hobby Artist (Pretty OK & particularly fast) + VB6 Coder (Strong skills). Was working on a BIG VB6 program for enjoyment. (https://nelfid.com/)
(https://www.reddit.com/roguelikedev/comments/1aeaoo8/2024_in_roguelikedev_monstergirl_resonance_call/ )
Had to stop. Looked at Godot for continuation, seriously impressed, started learning it, WOW. Decided to build a racer for shits and giggles and to learn from it. Ok, fun, easy, cool, and then decided to upgrade it with pretty graphics and decent gameplay. Game testers went nuts, I went nuts. Too much fun.
But, I’m long suffering from a sleep disorder. So re-re-re-learning Godot between medical hiatuses isn’t fun. However I can churn out art and Godot prop code no matter my condition.
I’m still a beginner at Godot, an advanced coder in VB6, I can prototype well. HOWEVER, I’m better at smashing out tracks worth of art, cars portraits, cars sprites, car cutaways and Godot track and props setup.
What I am NOT good at is the higher order setup of minimising repeat code and proper setout of node hierarchies (I haven’t learned it yet). I’m tired of bashing my head against, all the old vector math, engine math, gearing data and power curves. (I graduated that stuff at University too many years ago.)
I’m looking for someone who likes THAT, car-frictiony-enginey-handling-math. Someone who likes building car-part-shop-garage-drag-drop-thingy-interfaces. Someone who enjoys a good thrash and smash car game with a penchant for comedy and silliness. Someone who’ll also help with all the OTHER things needed to put a game on Steam and random marketing functions. Someone who knows how to handle multi-packed scenes and not build shit code.
As needed, I’ll be covering ALL the art, all the interface art, you-name-it, you just make it work. I’ll also be building and drawing all the tracks. Ideas and creation for silliness, wackiness, interesting tracks, cool props, etc, will be a duo effort for building them. If you have art skills too, great, join in.
Do note: I’m aiming at hand-drawing 50 tracks in grand total, their props and variants. This is an astronomical amount of work. I WILL get burnout, and the contingency is to ask the audience for fun and silly ideas too. This way, the track-select-bucket can be filled over time. Even after Steam’s Early Access commences. Seriously, you’ve got to go above and beyond to stand out nowadays.
Have SQLite skills? Good, because we will be using it.

Build Time:

Speculatively guessing for build time. Minimum time 3 months. Maximum time 6 months to complete.

Goal Post 1:

Schedule I'd like to do: Prep the game with a first stage demo. As per above, but with say 3 tracks, and 3 different user cars and proper NPC AI. Chuck that on Steam as a first port of call. This shouldn't take long as the shop/parts/Tv studio are not relevant here. Just racing and a simplistic track select menu. Car types can be basic hard coded engines and handling here (ie: no part swapping yet).

Goal Post 2:

Second stage demo: and with it, Early Access. Entire Season 1 Tracks ready. All stuff is here, shops, parts, Tv studio. Category 'D' racing is fully open here. The user can run through the whole 1'st stage, 10 tracks (with celebrity tracks included). However, more difficult grades C, B, A and Ultra cars, parts and other tracks are not available. This is so the users can get a 100% feeling for the game, and if they want to go to the next level (more difficult, more tracks, more parts, more cars, more excitement) they'll have the incentive to purchase the full game. Early access means we'll start dumping down new tracks and celebrity tracks as they get made so EA's can get them in the random bucket as we go along.

Goal Post 3:

Real Launch: Everything done, but tracks might not be fully complete yet (at least 50% done). Track selection is done from a diminishing pool randomly selected per each season. If short, it will select from the bucket again. At this stage the entire game should be coded in full, with the exception of new props for upcoming tracks. Which you'll be helping out with.

Marketing:

Marketing is informal at the moment, and happy to share ideas and discuss approaches accordingly. Currently I've been collecting relevant forum/group websites for those who love or may love this stuff.

Sound:

Music and sound effects assets will be from sites like Zapsplat and other affiliate style sites. (So we'll need to program in a car CD Player or Tape Deck, lol) If worthwhile to translate for other languages, we can do that as it's not a text heavy game.

Revshare:

Rev share will be pinned at 50/50 unless there is some other extenuating circumstances. Official company setup and final legals will occur immediately prior to Early Access -> pending interest level by users.
You won't be 'just' coding. Wherever we can both cover each other's backs to smash things out as fast as possible, you'll need to be flexible. Game's are not just coding and artwork.
I expect you to be proactive because I’ll have my hands full with art and technical props.
Let’s do our best to get it over the line.

Response:

I won’t be responding to Discord currently. My account seems to have been inactive-erased, I haven't ‘dug’ in my records for it, that’s a ‘later’ thing. DO NOT DM me, myself and others want to see and verify who you are first, exclusively write below.

Timezone:

East-coast Australia timezone, happy for any talent, anywhere. English language only.

About you:

If you are interested and have some seriously strong Godot skills, please introduce yourself, what you've done, programming background, any training or other videos you've made (please link them). Can you program caengine physics and road AI exceptionally well already? How do you avoid spaghetti code? How long have you been tackling Godot? Do you know shaders? What are your daily hours/location? What can you do for your 50/50 rev-share of this project?
Corso
Have some AI Generated art for theme and ideas fishing. Note: I won’t be using AI art anywhere, this is only for sticking into the ideas-box and to give you a feel for what the game is about.
Coverart Ideas
Lastly, if you’re good and we work well together, I’m happy to discuss any future projects that require similar arrangements. There is a mountain of short-term, popular 90’s and similar games begging for modernisation and graphical updates.

2024.06.09 09:24 dissanthropic Wonky hot/low water temp from tankless gas Navien w/ recirculation

General problem description: We have a shower that starts off scalding hot, then becomes too cold, then only mildly hot after turning shower valve to the max hot setting.
Context Details: We're in a newly renovated place with a Navien tankless gas water heater (model NPE-210A2 with internal--as a 1 gallon buffet tank--or external recirculation system).
It seems the place has a return water line for hot water recirculation and as far as I can tell things are set up correctly: the heater settings are "External recirculation, no pump, etc... Water temperature is set to 140 degrees (yeah super hot but the landlord and property manager said this what the plumbehandyman said to set it as)
Our shower's valve is a delta single handle with off at 3pm position. Max hot is about 10pm. We've rotated the inner temp regulator knob to the hottest as well (furthest counter clockwise).
Specific details of the problem: When turning on the shower at anything past 11:30 handle position, the water that initially comes out of the shower is scalding hot (130-140 degrees). We have to change the handle to around the ~1pm position to get about 100-105 degrees. After a minute or two the water temperature cools down rapidly to 80-85 degrees and we have to move the handle to the hottest 10pm position to just get 95-100 degree water.
There is a lot we don't know and unfortunately the landlord/prop managecurrent plumber are really slow and have just asked us to unplug replug the heater, try different temperatures, etc so far.
I'm hoping there may be some good ideas here on what's happening that I can user to help prod the landlord and team into action, or ideally just helps resolve the problem.
I'm planning to call Navien next but am not sure how much support I'll actually get. We'll likely just call an independent plumber if we don't get traction in the next two weeks or so.
Right now my best guess of what's happening is... when we start the shower, the hot water is coming from the return line and doesn't mix that much with cold. After that initial reserve hot water runs out, the "new" hot water from the tank is either not hot enough and mixing with the same amount of cold water to achieve that lukewarm state. Or somehow there is more cool water mixing in. In the first case it would seem something's off with the heater.
Changing the Navien's water temperature lower (120) does solve the initial too hot problem, but then after a while the hottest we can get is below 90 degrees.
I've not been able to the turn the delta faucet regulator dial any further clockwise (pull out, rotate counter clockwise, and it actually can't fully retract back all the way). Might there be a problem with the regulator in the cartridge?
Maybe thanks for any brain power anyone can contribute!

I recently got a chance to use the MORryde TV56-010H ceiling mount for my TV, and I must say it's been a game-changer in my entertainment experience. This mount is designed for flush installation on ceilings or under-cabinet, making it perfect for anyone who wants to save space or create a sleek look in their living room.

Another key highlight is its compatibility with flat panel televisions or monitors with VESA mounting patterns up to 100mm x 100mm. I found this particularly useful as I didn't have to worry about whether my TV would fit onto the mount.
However, one downside of this product is that it doesn't come with a locking mechanism. While it hasn't been an issue for me so far, some users might prefer something more secure for their TVs.
All in all, I would highly recommend the MORryde TV56-010H ceiling mount to anyone looking for a reliable and space-saving solution for mounting their TV. It's definitely become a permanent fixture in my home!

1. What is a flip down TV mount?

A flip down TV mount, also known as a pull down TV mount, is a type of TV bracket designed to allow for easy stowage and deployment of a flat-screen TV. It enables you to securely attach your TV to the wall or ceiling, and then simply flip down or pull out the display when you want to watch TV.

As long as your mount is properly installed and maintained, it should be relatively easy to make any necessary adjustments to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable viewing experience.
