I don't think there enough marketing in the benefits of laptops as heated cat beds. Stripey says it the best feature and next time I get a new one he wants to test each one.

ue5-main (last ~24h): big rendering streak. Runtime “Diffuse Ambient Captures”, lots of Nanite Ray Tracing + HWRT iteration, plus Lumen knobs + SSAO path changes. Tooling/build pipeline also got love. 👇

Am I the only person, hoping for our AI overlords to appear soon so we can get rid of the crazy right wing politics that seem to be endemic to UK and USA democracies.
Not sure how it could any worse TBH.

Its crazy that we have already reached a point with AI coding where the biggest issue is ability to juggle multiple agents + review/test what they have done.

I made the mistake of replying to a post of twitter saying Net Zero was stupid. Not sure whats worse the replies denying climate change or those saying China makes more pollution so we shouldn't do Net Zero.
Maybe not trying to make it worse is a good idea? Insanity!
