sweep system primarily sweeps the collision shape along a translation. pure rotation does not sweep the corners of the boat through the arc. IIRC Epic’s documentation explicitly notes that rotation sweeping is “not currently supported.” You would need to make many checks but I think you’d want something along this idea maybe? DesiredYaw = CurrentYaw + SteeringInput * TurnSpeed * DeltaTime DesiredTransform = Transform(DesiredYaw, CurrentLocation) Test the boat's collision shape at DesiredTransform loc If no blocking overlap: SetActorRotation(DesiredYaw) Else: not rotate BP: Calculate desired rotation -> Box Overlap Actors / Component Overlap Actors at the boat collision's proposed transform -> Any blocking object? No Set Actor Rotation Yes reject the rotation

Anyone know of workarounds on how to make SetActorRotation on an obj sweep properly? My boat is moved via SetActorLocation/Rotation. SetLocation has a sweep option, so if I move forward (without rotating) I collide properly. But if I don't move and only rotate, I clip through!

I agree with all this. Personally my wife and I hit the recommendation for what they consider acceptable for perfect homeschooling environments. We’ve put a bit of research and our local selection of courses and schools are absolutely far behind the power curve our child is displaying. After our research in the topic we learned a lot about the requirements or lack there of and looked into what statistically shows better outcomes. Educated, home, stable environment, preferably middle class and above for educational travels (not required by any means but homeschooling is costly done right). We haven’t solidified the homeschool curriculum as many options exist. Part public participation, some are virtual with teachers, some are hands off here’s a timeline of tests. I think it’s up to the parent to find what works for their child. For schools we’ve gotten to a point where getting good teachers in the respective class they are good at is no longer viable. We have English teachers stuck with social sciences and history. Math teachers pulling double fitness duty for PE. The overlapping specialty is now a position of supervision of curriculum development by tests of previous class efforts to tailor the next set of years of the failed curriculum prior which never addresses the concerns on why it failed. It’s a hard thing to factor and this admin has doubled down on just removing dirt roads on the mountain of issues.

I was homeschooled in Alaska, with a mail-order curriculum. I have known families that just ignored it and went for a GED eventually, but those aren’t the norm of the families that go for homeschooling. Most are more educated parents that have a clear idea of what they want from their kids. Having been a public school teacher, I have no faith in the curriculum standards or testing they do in public schools. Sending your kid to public school and being hands off is to just surrender your kid to being ignored in a room with 30 other kids. So yeah, there are flaws with both, but in both an unmotivated parent will shortchange their kid, and with a motivated parent the homeschooling provides much more opportunity for a good learning environment and more advanced material. I had a principle that told me that the three factors in education are the student, the parents, and the school. If at least two are motivated to succeed, the kid will succeed. Unfortunately I think now the school is permanently in the “unmotivated” category, so success relies entirely on student and parent, even in public school.

Today was the day of fixing errors lmao Had to run to exchange cookie mix because it was a few months past shelf date. Missed it picked it up. Then had to run to @Target to exchange a Gabby Playhouse. Looks like someone took all the goodies inside and left the main stuff. Either way, easy fix.

@BowTiedBroke @grok Missing the decisions factor of an underwriter who ultimately decides if the person will ultimately pay the loan back or be dead before recouping.

I just asked @Grok if federal student loans are extinguished when you take your last breath. It said yes. I then asked “What would stop a 60 yr old from going back to school, borrowing a ton of money for school/living expenses and just never paying it back because they croak at 75”. It pretty much said “Nothing…you could borrow up to $257,000 at that age for undergrad & grad school and when you eventually pass away in your 70’s the debt is gone. New social security hack unlocked when SS runs out. 🤔

Have a friend who 47. Has a PhD. Finished it at 28. Says he still has $300,000 in student loans to pay off. How in the literal hell is this possible?

Dad buys land for $100K. Today it's worth $5M. Dad doesn't sell because selling triggers huge tax bill. Dad borrows against it instead. A loan isn't income. So no tax. Dad lives off the loans for decades. Dad dies still owning the land. Kids inhert at $5M basis. Kids sell & owe nothing to the lRS. The $4.9M gain? Gone This is exactly what wealthy families do to avoid taxes and build generational wealth.

Qualifications for voting should include only U.S. Citizens who: 1) Own property. 2) Work and pay income taxes. 3) Veterans. 4) Retirees (age 65 and older) who paid into Social Security (FICA taxes) for at least 20 years. 5) Spouses of the above categories. No one else should be allowed to vote. I also think voting age should go back to starting at 21. Have I missed any categories?

I don’t even have enough characters to explain how wrong this assumption is because it varies depending on which state you are in. I’d highly encourage you to literally just @grok on which state because you’re asking for 50 different answers which all basically say: There could be oversight but universally there is no methodology used evenly about curriculum chosen. Free rein parents are a thing. Many states do not require a formal curriculum or enrollment in any approved program. Parents generally have broad freedom to choose materials, methods, and pace as long as basic educational progress is shown where required. You call/write an intent. Some states make you update them on progress or some kind of test to ensure the kid is progressing past GED levels… but no… nonstandard unfortunately… *laughs in instructor voice*

@maddoxrules @cranberryclock @nypost Where are you allowed in the US are you allowed to homeschool your kids without a curriculum? I’m not familiar with all states, but I’m pretty sure the standard is you need to be enrolled in a curriculum program with standards.

Friend.. I think you should just pause and maybe research a little of what you’re saying and what you believe vs how the internet actually functions. Modern search engines do ingest enormous amounts of data through crawling, use sophisticated ranking systems (PageRank was foundational but has evolved into complex ML models), incorporate user signals like click-through data in training their ranking algorithms and produce biased or personalized results. There’s even a little AI now that formulates the regurgitation of your results. Beyond you just “disabling it” the literal engine powering it is still doing the background process you are explaining. Again I’m not trying to change your mind, nor do I care where you land, but calling a pineapple just an apple doesn’t remove the pine in the formula.

Well, I had one freelance gig in the background, enjoyed the first bit of work I did on it, I just left it after finding out the project was being filled up with genAI code and likely art, the cheap dev called it progress, and that all automations kill jobs!!! So selfish!!

Daft people. This is clearly an email stating the software developers have updated the code and firmware for the machines and it’s located on a file transfer protocol. Then it says it’s awaiting the electronic tablet so they can further test functionality to clear customs. As all electronics in/out do. It has people from HP. So now I’m guessing you’re going to say that people from HP are overturning the election also. You all will believe anything thrown at you as evidence of normal behavior being suspicious.

I think you missed the other section, being educated is Highschool level, most require this. There’s additionally requirements to meet but the off the shelf booger eater following a curriculum can learn to drive an 18wheeler and do a trade. The point of education is to help balance work/home/study life for the child if you’re working full time. Education isn’t a requirement but it helps significantly statistically. That’s why I mentioned they talk about anyone in a managerial role can bypass education completely and still achieve same results with homeschooling because of these soft skills.

@cranberryclock @maddoxrules @nypost “Homeschooling has proven to be effective when using a curriculum and the parents are educated” That’s the issue. There are a 27 states that have zero reporting for home schooled students. There are no requirements for grades or standardized tests

Ludwig is 100% correct when he said when you stream doesn't matter. Stop thinking so hard about timeslots. Choose a schedule that works best for where you're at in life and focus all your energy on producing streams that will translate well into YouTube videos!
