Windows 14 rumored to have a free trial with no limit on playtime all the way up to level 70, including the award winning expansions "Heavensward" and "Stormblood," sources say.

whatever you call this art style - PS2 era medium-poly characters with hand-made highly detailed but also somewhat blurry textures with baked-in lighting - I absolutely love it and it makes me want to drop everything and make games

yes, I am half joking. The only sin is harm.
the other half I must stress is not hyperbole; jaggies are beautiful and replacing them with blur is an act of evil only god can forgive.
I'm completely serious. jaggies are sublime and wonderful and all manner of good things. do not censor them.

Why
β€ͺ@why.bsky.team‬
Until December of last year I was using LLMs as fancy autocomplete for coding. It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff.

In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing. Fast

"if it was in a completely different context for a different purpose it might be good" doesn't really move the needle

Dongmei's head with the hair base hidden.  Her long flowing tresses were obscuring the back, and are part of the same mesh, so it all had to vanish for the moment.  The neck and skin underneath are bright green.  She's technically naked right now.

blacksky is acting a little strange, doesn't load half of folks PFPs, says I'm only following an 8th of the accounts I was following before, and none of these issues are popping up on bsky proper.
I wonder if that's related.

remember there is an army of HUMAN BEINGS out there doing "ghost work" to prevent even worse responses from reaching the public

and the only tool they have is effectively a "wrong answer" buzzer because you cannot teach it why the answer was wrong BECAUSE IT DOES NOT KNOW THINGS

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

Dongmei, but her qipao is a weird mess of green and blue segments.  I am unwrapping her UVs using Project from View, and have determined it's best for now to have seperate projections for the front, back, and side of her qipao.  The blockout color map the material is currently set to is creating the colors, but above it is the still mostly blank texture map that hopefully illustrates where the UVs will likely be placed with more accurate colors in the future.  Also there's a new white flower in her hair, more on that later.

UV unwrapping is so funny
