PSA: you can use version control for things other than code.
No need to invent insane naming schemes to simulate branches and commits #git #versioncontrol #spirituality

1. Scotch tape anti-static foil
2. Bend motherboard slightly
3. ???
4. This is fine

.. okay so, the hair extension tool definitely works better than nail clippers for removing a stubborn m.2 drive

Hmm.. doesn't look like this can actually fit a GPU..

.. without a deranged mindset >:3

#blender vertex tools update:

Added search panel for vertex groups in case you have 1000 of them and you're swapping bones on an avatar for example.

Now that I see what's inside these boxes around the city, I have more questions than before

Mfw reducing to two materials and combining bones 1:4 still gives shield level "very poor" #vtuber #vrchat #vrm #vroid

this #php code i wrote 10 years ago is better than most #nextjs / #react apps.

change my mind.

Something inspiring about a giant radio tower in an empty skyline.

A gyroscope, GPS and some trigonometry tells me it's about 350 m tall, (It's actually 315 m tall)

#soundcloud seems to be a tipping point, where they no longer maintain their web-client and it barely works.

All their resources seem to be put into AI + censorship of remixes.

#Ubuntu forum mod team introduces anti - #lgbt / "don't say gay" rule.
- And then tries to silence discussion about it)

..guess I'm switching my WSL2 to a different #distro.

#blender rii-init/packages/blender-vertex-tools

useful so far, as a clipboard for temporary positions of parts of meshes (useful when modifying baked meshes like #VRM often are)

Chat is this true?

Was #Godot created entirely out of frustration with the python API in #blender?

Because in blender 4.4:

Install a package!? `Nope`
Use pygame? `False`

Run scripts without
crashing the editor..?
`None`

Hmm okay, at this point, this #VRM + #VRC avatar stuff is turning into a #Blender + #Unity mesh+armature+shapekey toolkit / diagnostic Swiss army knife >:3

(we love using too many programming languages for the same task / domain)

USB Gamepad?,

..or osc/midi controller for live video production?

Needs to be reskinned As I'm hesitant to have too many colored objects on my desk at once,

..But when you think about it, operating a computer should be kind of like operating a crane or at least that game they have in malls.

having a mono repo is pretty cool 🕶

no, really. it is.
if all your inventions are in one #git repo
1. you're not dependent any one company to orchestrate all your things; you can just pack up and move.

2. Best of all your mind has sovereignty, because you have your own software+mental frame/basis.

The cycle of life:
Neighbour has SWAT team show up, but he's already fled and leaves all his stuff behind.
Land lord puts stuff outside to the curb,
Random opioid addict shows up to sell the guitar amps to buy more dope.
I show up (late) and all that's left is a street fighter controller 😞🤔

Chaining multiple USB hubs appears to fix USB host controller driver issues on #Windows.

I don't make the rules 🙂‍↔️

..because this was necessary

seems like good investment to set up diagnostic and custom logging components for #Unity. #GameDev #buildinpublic

..haven't published this module yet, but it's nice to be able to pipe and grep info about an armature for example.
