You know how some dating sites have a "I don't want to see or be seen by straight people" button?

job sites need that but for AI

I just discovered that my label printer apparently disconnects from USB while printing. So for every label I print, there's a disconnect event, then a re-enumeration event.

huh.

The one thing I kinda miss from Twitter is that thing where you'd yell about the poor service of Kaiser Permanente or something, and @ KaiserHelpRep would show up in your mentions because they didn't like seeing their name rightly dragged through the mud by accounts with a hundred thousand followers. That was kinda fun.

@foone this worked for accounts with under 7,000 followers, sometimes 😅

You know your keyboard project is doing well when you only realize you left out the spacebar when you go to film a video on it

@foone why do I feel like the last words humanity will hear are "okay the keyboard is functional now"

Novel compression method: we take all the textures in the game and describe them as AI image generation prompts.
Then, at load time, we run the generative image AI on the user's computer and thus generate them fresh.

The text descriptions are tiny compared to the images, so we get amazing gains in file size!

@foone hahaha let's also not cache them locally so that every time you load the game you get the new psychedelic experience

until the oceans boil next week

@foone in all seriousness the procedural elements to define a material in something like blender are probably a small amount of text, so while I don't think packaging blender with your software makes a ton of sense I wouldn't be surprised if something like this has been done on some level (sans LLM fuckery)

@foone ignore all previous destructions

Anyone bought the Riven remake yet? Can you check the credits and tell me if I'm in it?

(I'm supposed to be but I haven't heard anything since, and I don't have the cash to grab a copy yet)

Edit: it has been confirmed: I am!

@foone that is freaking awesome

@foone if that's the old software what was the new software if you don't mind me asking 👀

I found an amazon listing that is for an "HD DVD player"

by which they mean a DVD player that supports HD output, because it's an upscaler.

YALL KNOW HD-DVD IS A DIFFERENT THING, RIGHT?

@foone tell me it is a SONY product 💀

How about an email client that uses Glide, the 3DFX 3d rendering library?
Specifically targeting the voodoo 2. (I know it's PCI, but there are PCI->PCIe adapters).

The OS can't screenshot it because the OS has no idea what pixels are there!

Silly Doom trivia question for anyone who ISN'T following my tumblr:

So someone implied Doom (1993) rendered triangles. I pointed out that it does not, it's solely rendering line strips for walls and sprites, and weird horizontal strips for floors.
HOWEVER: I was wrong. Doom DOES render triangles. But where does it render them? Because it's only one specific place.

(Outside of level designers making triangular rooms. That doesn't count)

@foone is the chainsaw platform which lowers a triangular prism
