Well!!!!! when I was talking about level 1 padi I meant open water of course, but I'm fed up with these English words, even though I practice Shakespeare's language a little. Badly worded my humor? don't worry, I have another one on CMAS and this greasy to all of you who have strength to take you seriously have confirmed me in the idea of trying to cheer you up! a man who has no more dreams is an old man before his time. An adult who has no more humor is a boring person! tell yourself one thing people who take themselves seriously there are plenty of cemeteries. It is also only there that we are all equal. I started diving with an N1 a long time ago at club med. When we were celebrating a patent, we drank champagne while standing in circles under the water. It was magical because with the pressure the champagne stayed in the bottle. You could even think that it was an educational tool! in any case we remembered it. Now it is even forbidden to take a bottle on a diving boat —————— but where are we going? ————— more traditions ———— more fun ———————- more user-friendliness ———————–but the race for money and say that there are people dumb enough to accept this. I have even seen cops in Guadeloupe controlling divers underwater. Fortunately they did not control me otherwise I gave them a sign that he could not refuse at 40 and since they had a simple fenzy it was not won. Of course if no ascent I will have lodged a complaint against this gendarme .——————. Obviously I also took the cabbage with the head of the center to whom I still left some 1000 euros. No matter how much I explained to him that I was doing more than 10000 km so as not to be pissed off, I don't think he understood. Tell yourself one thing, freedom is a precious good that must be defended every day. It's not just our sport that is getting really boring. Formerly I was a skydiving MF with the common core of sports educator. With some 600 jumps to my credit. Wanting to reconnect I went to Spain to jump. Do you know what the guy on duty told me? OK we take you and we do a tandem after of course a sloppy instruction. obviously it is profitable it costs about 350 to 400 euros. As I disagreed I said to him “would you please look at my logbook” answer no it's not worth it. If you want to jump classic you first pay 1000 euros and you start all over again. But where are we going? if I am telling you that, it is because sport is now structured to make money all over the place, without taking the value of people, nor taking into account the fact that it is also a hobby. If we have to be pissed off all week and in addition start over the weekend I understand that some have lost all sense of humor.! You want some controversy you will have, although that was not my goal at all. Padi has something else to offer than a big swig of Ricard once on the boat, say Nicolas. Well excuse me for telling you Nicolas but they are living dead !. besides there are some who forgot to live and who died before their time! this poor Cousteau must be turning in his grave. There is only one area where they are alive and well, it's to ask you for your credit card !. I don't want this Anglo-Saxon system. As for criticizing the French for their associative clubs, at least they are often volunteers who use their time and their knowledge, and we are at least sure that they do not do that to grow fat on the backs of poor idiots who are stupid enough to be bamboozled. And yet I am not a club. Besides, it is unfortunately not even more certain that there is a good atmosphere in these clubs. So you have my truth each has its own, and of course I respect that of others as long as it does not take away my freedom.
@Ph Carrez: Your articles are always fascinating. A text explanation however, what is a mesh or a mesh?
@Ozi: Hello, still in “curious” mode… It's funny, because for Lokazionel ”, the magazine of 3D universes, they asked me for a definition of“ bathymetry ”and“ dive computer ”, Mesh not asking no problem with these Geek-Nerds (I let you search the Internet for the definition of these two) that we are ...
Soss .. a Mesh is a three-dimensional object made up of polygons. This is a fairly “standard” way of programming an object in 3D, except that online universes (websites where you walk in 3D in real time, or metaverse) did not use this technology at the beginning, because it is very resource intensive and it would have been impossible to do the calculations instantly.
Over time, as technology evolves, it is now possible to import “light” Mesh objects, their advantage being that they have a thinner end, and that they are easier to manufacture, even free software being very widespread… Voila voila…
Thank you Professor! To think that I almost dyed the mesh blonde!
Obviously I went to see Geek-Nerd and his historico-intellectual-socio-cultural bell towers. Vast subject which increased my number of open pages “google definition of…” and the extent of my 3Dzien horizon on this rainy Sunday!
Moral: Older Sundays make us younger at heart 😉
If you haven't seen it, watch the movie Dinosaurs, only virtual and so powerful that it feels like it's real.
