Thank you mates. As mentioned, I tried to stand at the balancing point... Somewhere, I think is the optimum of function, form, construction, psychology, etc. Biomimicry is really powerful, agreed.

There have always been monumental child actors and all I can say is, as long as they are protected better than in the past, great. Some of the topics addressed and the pressures of deeper character roles can play havoc. I believe Robin Williams had huge issues getting out of character for one and Bob Hoskins had to have therapy after "Who framed Roger rabbit". What is next? The actual conduct of some kids in trw bothers me, lots. Even something like ten years ago on a footpath that used to be a country road, I was confronted by a dozen kids with a knife and the attitude was not just that they would be OK, too young, but would be shown to be brave. There is a readiness to use violence too easily. Would we have the same issue if guns were easier to obtain as the USA? The hedonistic attitude that girls are less than boys? Well done to everyone involved with the film, making us cogitate on this and perhaps come back from the brink. Tomorrow I shall bring you a joke to make up for this morbid post. Or describe one of my Fud recipe's which is almost as good. Honest.......

i.e. the pointer is lost when the Rectangle tool is working. Also, I have no clue if I must be in edit mode and then use pull/push or it automatically starts. By the way, I tried both and did not get any response, it says you must hover over a face and then use the pull/push tool, yet it does not work...

Artificial intelligence? More like machine learning, little applets put together with a fancy title. Mathematical algorithms do not alone, intelligence make but, marketing is a powerful thing and creates the Emperors new clothes on an almost daily basis. Like always, buyer beware. Careful of the nano bananas, the Gibbons will go all funky on that.

Water, energy, ai and mining craptic currency. We know how bad the situation on this, our only lifeboat is but business, gets to do whatever the chunk it likes while we get preached to and fleeced. THIS new emperors new clothes stuff is properly toxic.

@MtnArch said in Go fund me?: I believe you're referring to a thread started by Gus R (https://community.sketchucation.com/topic/164378/my-gofundme). Yep. that me. Thanks MtnArch.

BTW, all these private dna screening services that are going around? Do you really think the data is out of bounds to insurance companies? Do you really think that it is not being used to develop policy and pricing strategies for the future? Wow.

In any event most of my work is drafting and little involves rendering jobs. I unsubscribed from Upwork Plus and raised my base rate back to what a freelance drafter with my experience should earn in the USA and not unskilled labor wages. That would be $50/hour. Here's a link to my Facebook professional page which is going nowhere even when I pay for an ad to run for a week. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578027453574

Closest I came to that was putting books etc in my folks shed/locker. Mind you, the ol' mum did phone and ask if I had read the books. "Good". "WHY"? "I gave them all to the charity shop, but at least you have read them". Some of those reference books were in the £200 range when I bought them........

Ah ok, that would be nice as I don't have one of those. But give it time I'm sure you'll get to love it.

All day long brother, on my ipod/tv this afternooon.

'@Rich-O-Brien said in MQ28 Ghost Bat: Even the video uses AI to narrate. Inception' I am neither a Sage or a mathematician, but one thing I know is the climb of change in the take up of AI will absolutely will not be linear or even exponential it will be explosive.

@L-i-am said in Ruby script by AI: what will humans do? We will continue to invent things and compete for resources. Which we've done for centuries. Maybe with society having more time for worthwhile projects we could improve things for everyone. Revolutionary changes come with pain and sacrifices.

Excellence is not an act, but a habit.

Ta mate, I am in the UK, I got the MK650 set for £30 from a neighbour. Getting rid of the stuff his now ex did not take with her. Now trying to work out how to get the blue fang bit online.

you can convert SketchUp's SKP files to Blender. You can either use the built-in SKP importer in Blender or export the model from SketchUp in a compatible format like Collada (DAE), OBJ, or FBX, then import that into Blender.
