Either I'm losing my mind or there's been people I followed that I'm not following and people that were following me that aren't. Could be either, but ay.
I'm trying to curate a feed here bsky, what are you doing :V

Too many projects. Slowly getting through em but man, I wish I was busy with smaller interesting things instead of slow moving big things right now.

Big things are always coming. I just wish they were a little less big sometimes lmao

Thinking about it, wouldn't Lanky Kong bounce on it for a bunch of bananas, not a burger?

Oop, I forgot to update here - gumroad unsuspended it, it's now back up for sale where it was.
It seems Gumroad has suspended sale of the Collar & Leash system. I will be investigating, and if I cannot get it restored, I will announce where it will be sold instead and will send out codes to those who have already bought it to grab it again.

Been using Kagi now for a while. Pretty much the same as strasz here - it's made search usable. Even without blocking domains and such, it's incredible how good a search engine can be when your eyeballs aren't the product.
i love kagi -- totally made search usable again. the ability to block domains owns, too. just great stuff.
really enjoying Kagi (subscription search engine) so far. Results like 2010 google, a toggle in the settings to hide as much AI as possible, and I can hide Pinterest everywhere

Red_sim's light volume
+ Ikeiwa's baked volumetric shader
+ Bakery spotlights, with "physical falloff" turned on (a checkbox on the bakery light component), and a custom cookie texture for a more uneven lighting effect.

I see discussions occasionally about having GUIs replacing command lines. And while I'm all for it, there's a point that I never see discussed. Part of why command lines work so much better than GUIs for some tasks is that GUIs require organization and hierarchy to work.

The wider project failed, but it was still an interesting one - I implemented the QOA audio codec in #vrchat #udon!
See it in action here: vrchat.com/home/world/w...
And the code here: gist.github.com/TapGhoul/bc7...
QOA test world by TapGhoul
This world is a test for running the QOA‚ or Quite OK Audio codec in Udon․ It has a couple modifications to work better for my own needs over standard QOA The bitrate is intentionally set low․ Song is...

No rhythm games at the rhythm gamers meetup? I don't think so >:3

Made a little surprise for #Furality this year. It's a fully playable ITG chart within my VRChat avatar! Best of all? Others could also try to play the game too!

... We heard this song so much @_@; I am sorry to people around me!

Man it's wild how often I find that problems get so much simpler when you start to think of them as distributed systems problems. Dealing with orchestration etc instead of a clean hierarchy of call stacks makes so many things so much easier when you have more than one source of events.

Jujutsu is definitely an interesting VCS. I'm sorta getting it, but will need to see how it handles my workflow and vice versa. It's a little mind bending in places, but maybe it'll give me an excuse to start trying to do stacked PRs, never done em before.
