As for the other thing, < meant what < said, < doesn't know why or how, but < has always felt somewhat peaceful when < is in the proximity of an active vacuum cleaner or hair dryer.

If the sleepy is particularly strong, < thinks it could be perhaps be ASMR... do those sounds give your brain tingles at all?

< is tired and at work.

< was installing the Czech version of Windows 95 from 22 floppies! It took an HOUR!

< uses both PSE11 and GIMP because PSE11 in regards to PSE8 is a piece of crippleware shit that can't even do half of the functions PSE8 could... < misses 8.

But < was referring to a program called Substance Painter, which imports your mesh and its UVs and allows you to paint onto the model in 3D, as if you were hand painting a physical model with paint and brush. It's fantastically awesome and works a charm when it doesn't decide to crash randomly, but it, er... decides to crash randomly from time to time. It has bad spells of crashing five times in half an hour, then lucky spots of not crashing within three hours. Very random. A bit unstable, still, but amazing at what it does.

< would like for some peace and quiet now. Measuring mics sort of need it.

< think it might be worthy of note to mention that Photoshop Extended gives ^ the feature to paint directly onto models as well, that way you don't have to transfer between programs. That's how Spanex textures all our models.

Sadly < uses Photoshop Elements, not Extended. But < was already wondering how texture artists usually operated outside of Substance Painter - < was imagining texture artists having some sort of superhuman 2D-to-3D imaginative spatial awareness shit that they trained years on to master. <'s glad to hear that's not the case and that they, in fact, 'cheat' like < does.

Indeed, you can first design roughly your textures, then deform it with PS's tools, then adapt the textures in consequence if it's not exactly fitting.
Photoshop works wonders for almost any kind of art, you just have to know how to use it appropriately. Some softwares can do better, but only for very specific purposes.

^ knows, before the incredibly recent age of SSDs, installing Windows from a disc to a 7200 RPM drive would take < about about an hour, and before then, on a 5400 RPM drive, nearly two.

<’s bro keeps playing that stupid League of Legends game EVERY DAY which EXTREMELY SLOWS DOWN the ENTIRE WIFI NETWORK. How do I stop him from playing that shit!?

Thanks candish, <'s been looking for it for a while now.

Does anybody know of any sour sweets? < likes sour a lot, but thought toxic waste and warheads where not very sour. They just make <'s palate bleed after eating more than 5 in one go...

; _ ;

Well if ^ keeps eating them, ^ will eventually get used to them. That's the best advice < can give.

< still doesn't know what to do to quench <'s thirst for sourness.

<'ll try boiling lemon juice into a syrup and see if it's sour enough...

... Yeah, it was pretty sour.

< NEEDS MORE!!!

Need help, reposting:

< says you should write him a strongly worded letter telling him to please stop playing so much LoL for the sake of the network. Alternatively, if you are on speaking terms, speak at him with mouth-words telling him to please stop playing so much LoL for the sake of the network.

< has tried everything < can, no remedy.

Worse, he’s actually video-calling on Skype at the same time!!

< should probably punish him by blocking the computer’s MAC address via the router.

If he isn't going to respect ^'s time, then just tell him that ^ is going to block his computer like so at set times. Either that, or he can work out a compromise with ^.

< thinks that ^^ looks like ^^ has made up their mind already XD

< will try it, thanks for the tip!

One problem: <’s bro might tell <’s parents about it, and <’s parents might not be very nice about it!

Has ^ talked to ^'s parents about this? If not, < would suggest that ^ does so that they are aware his brother's behaviour is detrimental to the entire household. They might then aid ^.
