Blender is such a great piece of software. I have been having a blast learning it!

I usually love and prefer the goofy look of old SciFi, but seeing the brutalist, utilitarian aesthetics of the tech in the two newest Dune movies convinced me of that the new designs can be awesome when done right.

It’s a big thing because it’s much easier to make fun of an objectively better lifestyle choice (avoiding meat or Microsoft etc.) than it is to try and argue against it. Especially because that would force people to question their own behaviour and that can be difficult and hurtful.

In suspiciously timed and totally unrelated other news

DaVinci is a great piece of software, but is VERY limited on Linux. The lack of mp4 support in the free version is enough to not recommend it for a newbie.

Donate to Yuzu! They are fighting our fight

Seeing Tears of the Kingdom actually run in 60 fps on the steamdeck made me immediately sell my Switch. Nintendo are holding back technological development by dragging their feet, and pushing anti-consumer practices.

Yours is the first comment I see that thinks further than “phones bad, mkay”. Thanks for that. I am a teacher myself, and I don’t see the phones themselves being the problem, but the fact that the curriculum is totally outdated and irrelevant to this generation and the students know this. I have personally fought to get some ‘technology weeks’ (where I teach 3D modelling, animation and programming) and the phones stay in the students pockets for the entirety of those classes (without me telling them to!), because the subject is relevant, interesting and actually requires for them to think creatively instead of just memorising facts.

Do it! Godot is great

Abstract food porn. Interesting.

I would argue that someone who completed Doom on nightmare is somewhat into the masochism of the soulslike experience

Canada? Is that the old name for the land that turned into a Chinese property investment scheme?

I teach technology in Denmark. I am so glad I convinced the school administrators to let me buy a bunch of refurbished Thinkpads and throw Linux on them, instead of being roped into either Google or Microsoft hell like so many other schools. The students seem to enjoy using the machines too (especially after they discovered Minetest).

But that would bring down the value of the current homes that the lawmakers own! Can’t have that happen…

For real. Most of the best burgers I’ve had were cheaper than that… In Copenhagen of all expensive-ass places.

You just inadvertently triggered a lot of Scandinavians

Running Steam VR using Proton works great for me.

No need for bombs. Give them 20-25 years and they will remove the ‘United’ part of The United States on their own and have to start over.

Currently running Pop!_OS 22.04 with a 3090 GPU, and it purrs like a happy cat. Getting significantly better performance than when the same hardware ran Windows 10.
