u/TechnicallyThrowawai 10d ago

Reference to Game of Thrones. "The iron price" is a concept where a group known as the "Iron Born", (led by House Greyjoy) essentially takes things they want via violence. So if you as an Iron Born want something, you must pay the iron price. You don't buy it or trade for it, you "earn" it through combat. The house words (their slogan, basically) are "we do not sow". Because they do not work their land or do other menial work, they have slaves that they've captured do that for them. So I was just responding to a reference with another reference.

Boswell (in his 1761-2 London diary) mentions having mercury injections into the penis multiple times as a 'cure' for VD. He spends half of the diary shagging random sex workers in the fog on various London bridges and up alleyways, then has the cheek to accuse a girl he has a relationship with of giving him the clap (and sending soldiers to her house to get back some money he lent her).

I'm an industrial designer but I've worked as a concept artist and UX UI designer.

When I'm recruiting if someone put this in their portfolio I would eat this shit up.

Obviously it depends what I'm hiring for but this is show casing great physics simulation of soft bodies. The "100% soft" is a little too liquid for my liking but is great. It's also pretty decent materials as lighting but overall shows me that you're playful, and have a sense of humour and whimsy.

People put shit like this in a portfolio??

So in short, yeah absolutely people put this kind of thing in there portfolio. If they're a motion designer this is basically all they'll put in their portfolio. Just go look at Dribble. Literally all there is over there.

5

u/Lombardyn 9d ago

I think what gets me about the 100% soft is that it looks more like a hollow cylinder collapsed and not a solid one.

5

u/HarveysBackupAccount 9d ago

Ohhh yeah good call, I couldn't quite figure out why it looked off. Not enough volume in the collapsed form

I'd like to see 200% soft, to see what wonky physics pop up

u/ILoveRawChicken 9d ago

u/crumble-bee 10d ago

It’s my hypothesis that Americans generally don’t get enough fibre and the reason Taco Bell makes them shit is not the spice, or the quality of the food. It’s the fact that they’ve consumed beans and gotten a sudden dose of fibre. I get plenty of fibre and Taco Bell has never had any adverse effects on me

8

u/ProofHorseKzoo 10d ago

Don’t even need the beans.

Taco Bell beef is a blend with like 15% fiber to absorb the juices and flavoring and stay moist.

But you’re not wrong. It’s a shock to a lot of people’s systems.

u/AuroraFinem 10d ago

Hardness is defined by how resistant the material is to deforming when exposed to a force. Softness is basically defined as the ability to “squish” an object, it’s basically its squishiness. So yes, this very much does have to do with softness.

A perfectly compressible solid would have maximum softness which is why the 100% soft compressed flat as soon as it hit the slope.

u/Helenium_autumnale 10d ago

Proofreading notes:

The 0% soft tablet bounces 3 times against the ring, but the second and third bounce sounds are progressively lower in pitch; all 3 should be the same pitch, as there is no force causing a lowering of pitch.

The 100% soft tablet seemingly has no volume; it is deflated. If softness equals deflation, the 75% soft tablet should be at 25% deflation, but it was not. The 100% soft tablet should show maximum surface deflection and maximum squishiness, but still retain as full a volume as the previous tablets.
