How did the Martians survive hitting the Earth when they were travelling so fast?

Mars is 56 million km away, when it's closest. The cylinders took a few months to get here. The WOTW Wikipedia says the first one was fired Feb 12th, and landed in June. So about 120 days. This means they were travelling about 19,000 km per hour on average. Even if they took a year they'd be travelling some 6,000 km per hour.

A fast bullet can travel 4,000 km per hour, and can get squashed and mangled on impact. A human in a 100 km per hour car crash gets... dead and mangled.

How on earth (how on Mars) would the Martians (a soft living organism) have survived this impact? Unless they arrive at Earths orbit, use rockets to slow down before impact? The rockets could be the green streaks the narrator sees in the sky. Or maybe there is a spring inside the cylinder, between the nose and the living quarters, to reduce the impact?

Not to mention how they didn't burn up in the atmosphere at that speed...

War of the Worlds: Small Patchwork Tattoo Ideas?

I wonder if anyone has any WOTW related ideas for small-ish patchwork tattoos? I realised last night that the B&W fighting machines by Henrique Alvim Corrêa would work pretty well, as it's already "tattoo-y" (i.e. without the background/landscape)

3 full Australian servers at 10AM on a Friday: we love an ANZAC game

The kiwis and aussies are loving this game

Isonzo barely had 10 people on during an evening at most. This many players at 10am in the morning (Melbourne time) and on a work day is pretty nuts

Are St George tattoos offensive in the UK?

Might be a lame question but: I'm a white guy, not in the UK but will travel there, and am thinking of getting a tattoo like the attached done in a medieval wood etch style. It's St George, and I've only just clicked that his cross (i.e. the English red and white flag) has become an offensive symbol of nationalism recently. Would getting a St George slaying the dragon tattoo be problematic or offensive in the UK? I.e would someone see it, and think I'm a white nationalist etc? It wouldn't have his flag just want to avoid any connotations

In render view, the window/door texture is dark in the sun, but brighter in the shade? The wall texture is separate, and is unaffected

The windows/doors are on planes. The main walls are a hollow cube with the same types of texture files as the windows/doors. But the doors/windows texture has odd shading in render view. They're oddly dark or bright depending on their orientation.

The textures are: Base colour, normal, and roughness. The base colour has opacity around the texture islands (4th pic)

What's causing this and what can I do to solve? Is it an issue with Blender or my textures?

The screenshots are from EEVEE. I also tried in cycles, but the door/windows are completely dark while the walls are perfect.

Should I fill up the rest of the UV map space? This doesn't feel right

I'm modelling a simple street light. I've made seams for the pole and light, and applied the same scale, but their UV islands take up like 1/6th of the UV map. it seems a waste of texture space.

Looking for advice really~ what should I be doing; stretch the islands to make them bigger? The main pole will be a concrete texture and the rest will be metal. I don't want it looking stretched...

Random heavy lines on uniform cladding?

I am modelling this garage for a City Skylines video game mod.

When I bake the textures, some of the lines where the wood cladding meets gets given a heavier line compared to the rest, and makes it look unrealistic. The cladding is uniformly spaced as I used the array modifier to make it. I've merged by distance on them and checked for any double-up of the mesh, and there's no problems there.

I have tried various baking settings including the default. this happens if I reduce the dilation to 0 and apply diffusion as well.

Does anyone have any hints to avoid this issue? I've had it with other wood clad buildings.

Images descriptions:

  1. The baked model with the lines showing. Using the bone texture.
  2. The baked normal of the model showing the lines.
  3. The high poly model in the render viewport, as to show that the cladding is uniform.

Substance Painter incorrectly importing UV map diagonally?

I'm unwrapping my model in Blender and importing it as an fbx. When it loads, the UV is completely different to the one in the model I exported?

Anyone know why, and how to fix it?

Travel to country with same language as you first, to reduce jet lag stress?

I'm wanting to do a euro summer, travelling a long way from NZ. I'm worried about jet lag and how it'd affect me, so I wonder if flying to England first (where they speak my language) would be best so I don't get a double whammy of jet lag + stress from trying to communicate with people with another language.

Is this a strategy people take?? Do you think it's worth doing, or are the effects of jet lag overplayed (i might be fine anyway, and should go straight to Berlin))) Chur cuz
