messing around with my ipod and discovering that rockbox firmware comes with an interactive periodic table?

finally trying that horse racing game everyone's been talking about

I built a new shelf today to hold VHS in my retro media center! and to celebrate I'm watching my official @summoningsalt.bsky.social Halo 2 World Records VHS tape that I got! (the photo is taken on my friend's digicam!)

I added the ability to give decorations in the aquarium custom colors! this is my attempt to make a big guppy out of rocks.. #fishposting

the fish tank editor is working now! I need to add more decorations and types of fish next :) #fishposting

added some animations to the fish! Now when they change direction they flap their little tails! #fishposting

It's looking much better with shadow intensity adjusted and shadow radius enabled! thanks for the suggestions @tess.bsky.social !

my partner had the very clever idea to make the ambient light (the light level in the shadows) brighter, and then crank the directional light up so that the areas which aren't in shadow appear as highlights. Then I inverted the vornoi noise texture, and I think the result looks much prettier!

Playing around with some water ripple shadows! I am very happy with the effect but I'm not sure how much of that is just bc it took me hours of messing with three.js depth shaders to get this working #fishposting

I have a directional light pointed down so I wonder if I just put a texture at the top of the water with the ripple effect and then enabled it to cast shadows with an alpha test? It might not look any good though with 1d shadows, it needs both light and dark
September 29, 2025 at 11:45 PM
I think you're right! I'm also messing around w shadows now, what I'd really love to do is to project a moving underwater texture onto all the shadow receivers (and match it to a ripple effect at the water's surface) but I'm figuring out how to do that

things are looking livelier in here now that we've got some plants! #fishposting

fish added by @tess.bsky.social at 4am are coexisting peacefully with my guppies... what a beautiful project thank you <3

They like their new rocks...

more fishposting... my lil guys are colliding w each other using rapier physics now

my vision for my 3d fish tank is to have an editor where you can add different kinds of fish and plants/decorations, and then export it as an embed you can put on your site, with a little badge to link back to the editor so other ppl can create their own

Having some fun making a virtual fish tank with three.js and react-three-fiber!

If you aren't familiar with r3f I highly recommend checking it out, it's really cool how easily the pieces fit together to create something interactive (github.com/pmndrs/react...)

just realized the 3 axes are probably colored like this because X, Y, Z are in the same order as R, G, B ??

me when im a fish
September 27, 2025 at 2:41 AM
I am also considering building an embeddable 3d fish tank for websites using three.js...
September 26, 2025 at 9:43 AM
starting to do some redesigning on my personal website... i want to add a bit more old-web style whimsy but i need more ideas on what to add
September 26, 2025 at 9:38 AM
I made a custom homepage for my home server! Every service is accessible on a different subdomain behind an nginx proxy, which uses SSL. And tailscale lets me access from outside my home network! Some services/addresses are obscured for privacy :p

Having some fun building my bookshelf in blender! (with some little VHS tapes, a chance to play with shader nodes!)

It's all made to the real dimensions so the next step is to build it for real!
