Thank you. Why am I doing it: I re-discovered Blender a couple of months ago and followed the famous Donut-Tutorial. After that I made some minor things, then I modelled and animated my Laptop, and now I’m challenging myself with a bigger project with more complex shapes. And boredom.

I’m working in the Architecturial field, so I know how to work in 3D in general. In architecture, however, I need to consider all kinds of measurements correctly - that is someting I dont’t need to do in Blender for an extent. I just enjoy the build.

I tried Blender before (I think it was Version 2.x) but in the end it didn’t work out for me. Meanwhile the software got better.

Back when I still studied (couple of years ago) I did some renderings using Cinema 4D, since we had it on some universities computers. But I didn’t model anything in C4D. I had a CAD Software, which wasn’t that capable of 3D back then, but one could draw precicely. For the 3D stuff I used Sketchup. I could interchange the files (mostly dxf files) between the programs. For renderings I imported a 3DS-file into C4D and put textures on it. Our software at work is capeable of creating rendered images.

My goal is to import the car model into our architecture software at work and sneak it into a rendering.

I’m currently modelling my car using Blender. The screenshots show the progress of approximately 2 weeks (entire weekends and a few hours after coming home from work). Some parts are created rather fast, and some parts take hours to get the shape correctly. Worst part in that matter ist the front bumper with its fog light. It took almost the whole weekend. The hood was made within an hour, since it has a simpler shape, compared to others.

For reference I use photos, where I do the details by eye measure. To get the general shape I traced the views (front, back, side, above) from drawings of the cars manual using Affinity Designer beforehand. This alone took me over one week, beause I only could do it after work.

And after thet, they will turn the lighter socket into a subscription model.

Es will mir absolut nicht in den Kopf, warum immer wieder Menschen abgeschoben werden, die sich hier gut integriert haben, die Sprache gelernt haben, eine Ausbildung begonnen haben oder bereit sind, unter anderem in solchen Berufen (Pflege etc.) zu arbeiten.

Auf der anderen Seite wird aber gleichzeitig aktiv im Ausland (z.B. Philippinen oder Indien) um billige Arbeitskräfte geworben, die dann hier als “Gastarbeiter” arbeiten sollen.

Es scheint, als ob des es nicht zumutbar - oder gar erwünscht - sei, dass einige unserer Mitmenschen einen anderen kulturellen Hintergrund und/ oder eine andere Haufarbe aufweisen.

Solche Entscheidungen tragen dazu bei, dass in einigen Jahren der Kollaps des Pflegesystems eintreten wird.

Vista made me switch to Mac back then.

That is a true statement. You can’t have both securtiy and wireless (convenience).

Every wirelessly transmitted signal, whether it is your network signal or bluetooth, can be intercepted from afar. It is even possible to encrypt the accoustic signal emitted from a needle printer and determine what has been printed because every letter/word emits a specific sound pattern. Sound travels wirelessly. This link from 2009 refers to that. Unfortenately it is written in German and I didn’t find anything in English, but you could translate it.

Edit: typos 2 nd Edit: Addition: Needle printers are still in use - at least in Germany - for printing prescriptions at doctor’s offices, among other things. The paper used for that provides a (physical) carbon copy.

This question is well-explained in the article, however, the article lacks some illustration which would have attributed to a better comprehension.

Before there were blue LED, the indicator light for full beam was a blue tinted incandescent bulb. My parents had a Volkswagen Passat from the 1980s (?) where the usually blue indicator light for full beam was a green LED, since blue ones were not invented back then.

We are completely screwed. Since plastic is around for decades, the exposition of disintergating plastic into micro- and nano plastic particles is also.

Almost everything you have, use, eat, drink etc. contains plastic, which is disintergrating due to mechanical abrasion or chemical reaction.

Examples: food - packed in plastic containers; beverages - filled into plastic containers, tin cans have an inner layer of plastic; paint - made of plastic; wood glue - made of plastic, the mattress you sleep on - made of foam, which is plastic; your clothes - contain plastic; your non stick frying pan - coated in plastic.

We cannot escape it. It’s around forever.
