Not a physicist, but pass through unaffected would be the obvious answer?

I would not have cared at all for this game if it wasn’t made by the studio that made it. This is not a game that sounds, or looks, fun, at all, to me. But I did decide to play it for the Server Slam play test weekend. It was free, after all. And boy have I ever been hooked. I was immediately addicted, with no way of indulging in it for two weeks after the test weekend, until launch. It has no right being fun, but somehow, it is. To me, at least. Other people say its EFT, but without the frustration, and less gritty. I can’t judge that, because I have not played EFT, precisely because of that. Since launch, I have basically been unable to do much else than playing this game. It’s not often this happens with a multi player game, for me. The only multiplayer game that possibly came close to that level of addiction was Overwatch when it launched. About the time requirement: yes progression can take long, if you do it at the same time everyone else does, and don’t get help online or from more experienced players. But on the flip side, there is always something to do. I’m not into sandbox games, and I would probably get bored fast without this. Plus in my book its a win to have a long story, rather than a short one. But only if its not grindy. And it somehow isn’t. Btw. the developers say there will be no mandatory wipes, so you can progress in you own time if you wish to. About the world building: astonishing. About the NPC enemies: I would go as far as say groundbreaking. If I understood that right, their behavior is not scripted, but trained via reinforcement learning. And it shows. They look, behave and feel extremely natural and believable. Dare I say smart, even. And no matter how far you progress, they will always pose a significant threat, and that’s not because they get stronger as you do. (They don’t.) And yet at the same time it is a viable strategy to go in with absolutely no gear or upgrades.

Long story short: I like it even though it doesn’t appear like my type of game. As for you: If you buy it in steam, you can always try it for two hours and return it if you don’t like it.

Korrekt, aber hier wird halt (stellenweise) bewusst ohne interpolation animiert, um den klassischen/ruckeligen look zu erhalten. An manchen wenigen Stellen geht das auch gar nicht. An einigen anderen sieht es tatsächlich aus als wäre interpoliert worden, aber bewusst die Frame Rate niedrig gehalten, das dann tatsächlich ausschließlich für den Look. Beispielsweise die Stelle in dem verlinkten Musikvideo wo sie im Stadion stehen und die Kamera um sie rum fährt. Da ändert sich der Blickwinkel aufs Stadion jeden Frame, auf die Hauptfiguren aber nur jeden zweiten, und das, obwohl sie ja auf der Bühne desselben Stadions stehen. Einen Moment später steigt die Eine in diesen Ring und schwingt durch die Gegend. Teilweise flüssig, teilweise ruckelig, je nach Kameraeinstellung. Andere Szenen wechseln in der Bewegung zwischen beidem, je nach Geschwindigkeit der Bewegung, um die Klarheit nicht zu verlieren oder die Geschwindigkeit besser zu vermitteln.

Zusammenfassend kann man also sagen: Alles bewusste künstlerische Entscheidungen.

Key-Frames sind die, die man tendenziell von Hand erzeugt und damit teuer sind. Die dazwischen können interpoliert sein, sie sind also billig.

Entstanden ursprünglich aus Kostengründen, heute eine Mischung aus traditionellem-Animations-Look-Beibehalten und Kostenersparnis. Kostenersparnis deshalb, weil man weniger Zeichnungen/Key-Frames/Photos braucht.
Man kann auch mischen, in dem man beispielsweise Kamera mit 24 fps animiert und Figuren mit 12, oder je nach Szene oder Figur unterschiedliche Raten nimmt. Besonders stark ausgeprägt war das meine ich in Into the Spider-Verse. K-Pop Demon Hunters ist vom selben Studio, würde da also stark auf Stilisierung und weniger auf Kostenersparnis tippen.
Hab mal auf die Schnelle den Artikel hier mit einer Beispielanimation gefunden: https://www.idtech.com/blog/what-does-animating-on-ones-twos-and-threes-mean

Get the cheapest and get a feeling for if this is the right thing for you or not, and if so, what more expensive equipment you actually need/want. You can always sell the stuff you don’t need.

One other thing to consider later would be what lenses you can borrow from friends.

Well the image is based on fedora linux and the tooling was developed by fedora, I believe. I put Aurora Linux on my dad’s aging PC around christmas, because it doesn’t qualify for Windows 11 and 10 ends support soon. In my experience it boots pretty slowly on physical machines (with n=2, fine on VMs though), and it doesn’t reliably wake from suspend, but other that that, it’s completely fine. I did not try to install any other Linux for comparison though

You might want to try using an auto updating bootc based solution instead, such as universal blue with customized images. They have instructions on how to do image customization.

But more importantly: send him something like a NanoKVM along with the USB!

Hab mich nie näher damit beschäftigt, aber https://hedy.org/ vielleicht?

It also means updates are just full system images, so no way for a package manager or differential update to mess anything up. It also means no way of downloading tiny differential updates (if I understand everything correctly).

If you don’t need DX or would like to switch off of KDE, there are other fedora atomic desktop based distributions available.

Oh right, a distribution is just an image, so switching distributions is as simple as switching the base OS image and rebooting.

Not necessarily exactly the same wires, but all rated for 16A, so the circuit beaker will trip long before any wire gets a chance to heat up

Don’t quote me on this, but I don’t think PDFs can usually contain java. It also wouldn’t execute if you don’t have a java runtime.

Either way, java serialization data is not executable, it is just that: data. It doesn’t contain code. You need the matching code already running in order to de-serialize the data.

If your file matches the linked SO post, you don’t have serialized java data embedded in the pdf, but the pdf embedded in a serialized java array. Which, also according to the SO post, is not a valid pdf.

<speculation>
I would assume that the library that generated this file (in the SO case Apache FOP) has a bug where it accidentally serializes the memory array (that holds the generated pdf) to the disk, instead of writing it to the disk. Why do pdf readers open it anyway? Either they incorrectly scan the file for %PDF- instead of verifying these are the first bytes, or the apache library (and possibly other libraries with similar bugs) are or were common enough that accepting this became reasonable.
</speculation>
