"Ha! Yeah right. You're TOO PERFECT. This must be fake, obviously. You can't fool me! NEXT."

That'd be a banger title actually. Nice job! The concept of "benefitting from world hunger" is still bizarre enough for a doubletake, but doesn't instantly piss off 99% of potential readers by headline alone lol.

This.

"Ah, behold! A gargantuan dwelling of the giants! We'll just put our giant clumpy mud hive right up here until we reproduce infinitely unchecked, and then perceive them as a threat for daring to venture outside! Peace an' love y'all."

"Ah hah! Look at this patch of grass! The giants stomp around here regularly. We shall burrow and hide beneath it, reacting with furious hellfire should we be tread on!"

"Avast, ye, mammal! You are within like a kilometer of my turf! Your life is hereby forfeit!"

--Various kinds of wasps, probably.

I'm all for letting things be(e), but I get pretty pissed when creatures have the audacity to attach to or otherwise colonize your dwelling and then get mad and violent that it's your dwelling.

All those "active listening" skills to trick people into thinking you're paying attention or care. Lol

On one hand I have my personal firstname-lastname-dot-com I'm still hosting for years. I'm not a webdev but WordPress is awfully bloated and everything else needs a touch of webdev skills.

So it's been at "coming soon I'm working on it welcome to sample example theme page" for years, but hey it's indexing well based on age alone!

The other is a fun clever one I route through cloudflare to access all my home server stuff via HTTPS over TailScale. Never have to expose any ports to the big scary world wide web. :p

I thought it was a pretty cool tale. :)

I got personally screwed by this when I sunk the cash into Substance Painter / Designer, and then they "joined the Adobe family."

At this point any software in my pipeline that's not FOSS would be considered a point of vulnerability.

Gatekeeping As A Service.

Eeeghh. Such parasites.

Ah yes, all those books whose plots are being used as manuals these days. :( lol

The Giver was really neat. Accessible too. The movie adaptation was such a bad idea because I thought one of its strengths was how it was set in an ambiguous time, iirc. The reader's visuals seemed really important for that story.

Well the wing itself isn't supposed to deform so we're good! :P

Seriously funny seeing this after trying repeatedly to retopologize simple objects, but making myself stick to quads to build the skills and "poly-perception"...It's truly maddening and un-fun lol.

Thanks for linking that site further down, by the way. :D

Elsewhere in the thread people say he's an "audio guy", so that's actually kinda neat if he's going to Linux.

We've made progress on the Linux gaming front, now we need to dispell "Y'but you can't use Linux if you're into sound." :)

Okay, a suspicious thanks to you, Microsoft...

...So when can we get this treatment for WMR so all our VR headsets don't become useless bricks kthaaaanks!
