Just a gut feeling though, might be wrong, really need numbers …

Ie, costs for VFX services wouldn’t make up a big portion of that exchange and high tariffs unlikely ?

Wondering what those trade deficit numbers would look like if digital goods and services sold to non-us countries were taken into account? Surely the money made with social media, saas etc would significantly level perceived trade imbalance, especially in a digital goods for digital goods scenario?

Just finished ‘Adolescence’ and while it’s very good, I do now really need something more uplifting. This sounds like it could hit the spot.

Per splat SH rotation is super cool - even during deformation?

PS: is the text in the title bar the node type or a node name?

I find widgets in nodes just lead to lot's of visual clutter once a graph gets bigger .. I find a nodegraph for flow / structure + a dedicated node property editor + some sort of inspector spreadsheet to show how the incoming data gets modified a convenient combination.

Looks like my map data is way too detailed for my plotter size and pen... I knew I should have bought an A0 plotter.

I naively assumed tip width might match line width, but that does not seem to be the case. I found this page helpful: piterpasma.nl/articles/lin...

Also www.actonstat.com/ballpoint-an... seems to have tip and line width (and even distance) for many pens in the product description.

When you hear a song on the radio in your car and you like it a lot but you can't write down the title because you are driving and by the time you've stopped you've forgotten? - Your list made me rediscover a bunch of those - made my day, cheers!
