"Nothing To Hide" by unfatarians (unfa's open-source music-making community).

A touching song about surveillance, freedom and privacy.

"I've given up the fight against big brother. I don't get paid for training his AI".

Also just a beautiful, touching piece of music.

Okay, now this is important. Drop everything you're doing, because Tom7 has released a new video. And oh boy, is it wonderful. 20 minutes won't save your life - and this video demands you sacrifice that time. Now!

@cinepi Hey, in your latest demo video there's some encoding artifact at 0:25-0:26, maybe reupload the video since it's still early?

@cinepi@mastodon.social avatar

@unfa Good catch! I noticed this fairly early too, but it's fairly minor glitch I feel wouldn't warrant the need to remedy. These demo's aren't for made for extreme technical scrutiny ( youtube compression makes it pretty much impossible ), more so just to give a high level overview of the available dynamic range and tonal range of the captured RAW video.

Any Windows Power Users here?

Is there any FOSS for Windows 10 that isn't super slow and unreliable, has double panels and tabs?

I've tried , and but each of them either can't do basic operations without crashing or requiring me to wait a few seconds.

I thought switching from HDD to M.2 SSD will help - I did not.

sucks - no dual view, no tabs... But all other options fig. make me want to punch the screen.

@unfa not a Windows user, but Emacs has dired, a decent file manager that works on all the platforms. It can edit files and directories remotely too via tramp.

@echos I've looked into it, but it's a TUI app, and hence - it won't integrate with the desktop (drag'n'drop, copy+paste, context menu).

Can't Ctrl+C something because it's baked to pixels? Now you can!

NormCap is an unusual screen capture tool. It doesn't capture images, but extracts text from a selected area of your screen.

@reduz

Hey, Juan!

What's your outlook on the Godot 3D physics core issue? The team has recognized this is critical.

https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/discussions/9646

According to @clayjohn professional physics programmers quoted $200k or more to fix this.

@unfa @reduz @clayjohn @godotengine as I can read, you misunderstood the conversation. From where I see, @clayjohn is saying that 200k is the average yearly salary a person with this experience has (which is true), and that it is not within range for the foundation to hire someone like that. This is not saying that someone "will fix it for 200k". John can correct me, but for me this is what he is communicating.

@jmarceno @unfa

Yes, thank you. I am not referring to a specific quote, but rather the salary for a senior physics programmer

CinePI is an open hardware/software project aiming to create a cheap cinema camera that uses a Raspberry Pi at its core.

Here's a stunning demonstration of what images can be captured with CinePi.

They are also looking for software developers :)

#StopKillingGames.com aims to delegalize game publishers thanos-snapping games you've paid real money for when they feel like it. Exactly what Ubisoft recently did with The Crew.

MattKC has a great short video about it:

Now is the best chance for us to have governments make laws protecting games from systemic destruction!

Australians - HURRY!

nuekaze,

@unfa Would be nice to have a law saying something like: "If the service is terminated and the product becomes unusable, self-hosting of the same service must become available."

unfa,
@unfa@mastodon.social avatar

@nuekaze Yes. Or at least "the product must be patched to remain functional without the 1st party network service".

If you've worked with Godot to make 3D games you probably had trouble getting your characters behave reliably. If you were working on a movement-based game for any amount of time, you've probably felt the pain.

This here shines light on why exactly that is.

https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/discussions/9646

There is hope for fixing Godot's character physic! Come over, and get involved!

Woodcat,

2/3 Actually, the presence of these conditions shows that the circle of potential candidates is extremely small. And engine developers know such candidates better than I do. And if no one specially deals with physics, it means that such candidates are not satisfied with something or they just don't exist.

Also, I'm not the first one to get personal, but since I got caught up I have to respond accordingly.

Woodcat,

3/3 I promote Godot on various platforms. Which could potentially attract the right people. The links are attached. So this accusation is demagogic from the impotence to object on the merits.

And such "suggestions" are whining and nothing more.

Brackeys was one of the most valued educational creators for Unity game engine.
He retired a few years ago and stopped.making tutorials. After the Unity Runtime Fee happened and broke all trust with the company's management - Brackeys broke his silence and announced that he is starting to learn Godot.

Today, 2 hours ago Brackeys has published his first Godot tutorial...

@Kiloku Yes, corrected, sorry!

@unfa@mastodon.social avatar

I have been reminded that Brackeys retired way before the Runtime Fee debacle. Sorry for my mistake, I have corrected it now. Thanks to everyone who pointed out the error!

If I had way more time on my hands, I'd get down to the nitty-gritty and try to implement this in .

This is the only decent resource I could find about how are modern done in engines.

This is also the only upload of this talk on YouTube.
I believe it was on 's channel a couple years back, but such incredibly valuable talks seem to sometimes be taken down.

So mirror valuable videos from and other events!
