@ryo I don't know. What I want to know is why are they hosting it on AWS when they fucking sell servers.

I don't know how much it cost to actually maintain a server for a storefront like this, but honestly it doesn't seem surprising because they are slow to restock. I actually wanted to buy a laptop from them a couple years back because I think it would be better to use a computer that was actually built for Linux, but ALL of their laptops were out of stock, but that might have been due to a chip shortage from the scamdemic.

Oh you thought that was bad? I also found out that their site is hosted on AWS. They might as well just sell their computers on Amazon.

Wait, these french riots are going on only because of the increased retirement age?

Finally fixed the collision detection (at least I hope). Turns out that recording the positions of the previous frame does actually work.

Got the bumper car behavior implemented. Will need to fix it. The car doesn't retract after bumping.

I think I solved the problems with car physics and collision which is to keep track of the car's position of the previous frame. Up until now, I've been using an object's velocity to handle directional collisions.

@ryo It wouldn't surprise me if they wear masks at an onsen.
