A cat with a newspaper with a caption that says : maybe I should stop reading the news

Ohne deinen Begleittext hätte ich heutzutage auf eine Anzeigetafel an der Tankstelle getippt.

What are the chances they don't vibe-port some web apps?

I'm so pissed I can't even type "life" correctly.

Fucking AI grifter billionaires and their industry bootlickers!

And yes, I'm also mad because I expected to do awkward moves in the living room by today, with the Steam Frame on my nose.

This SSD now lives in a small barebone PC, running Kubuntu, on my Dad's desk, replacing his end-of-live-and-support Windows 10 laptop. I built the whole box for about €500, including a decent 1440p display.

I'd probably pay double now, for the same specs.

A small-form-factor M.2 SSD 1TB in August, €95.

You can get the 256GB version for €120 now. The 1GB one sits at €300!

I purchased a RPi5 16GB kit with casing and cute little active cooler for €155 in October.

Perfect timing. By accident. I should have bought more.

Now I see RPi5 16GB *start* at €240. And that's just the bare unit.

Blink twice if you want us to airdrop some refurbished FRITZ!Boxes... wait, *all* foreign-made?

The universe is trying to tell you something.

To rewrite it in C89.

"I want to pay half of your salary with company store coupons."

First buses and trains/subways. Now they try to reinvent slavery.

Btw, how many $500k engineers do _you_ know?

"Informationen zu .NAME-Domains:

... Buchstaben (a–z), Ziffern (0–9) und Bindestriche (außer als drittes oder viertes Zeichen des Domainnamens) ..."

Gibt es einen technischen Grund für diese merwürdige Regel bzgl. drittes oder viertes Zeichen?

Das schlägt sämtliche "DLSS5 on/off" Memes, die ich bisher gesehen habe!

Komoot hat seiner Mobile App ein Facelift gegönnt. U.a. ein neues Logo. In einem wundervollen Kotz-Grün.

Auf den ersten Blick dachte ich, mein Display wäre kaputt.

Ich wette, da gibt es 'nen Jira Ticket mit dreistelliger Anzahl Kommentaren zur Wahl des Farbcodes.

I got started with plain Amiga Basic, on Workbench 1.3, and some book(s) about programming in said Amiga Basic. No external tools as far as I remember.

At one time I did first steps in Assembler with some tools and libraries on a German print magazine's cover disk.

It's "fair use" among pirates, I s'pose. Captain Sparrow would approve.

Yeah about the same (26%) here.

It also says the largest game would be Counter-Strike 2 with 85 GB. What the hell do they need 85 GB for? Weapon skins?

You know that a project is truly done, when the nightly build is turned off.

oh that is awesome, well deserved! congrats @ocornut.bsky.social

I may have watched this demo on my PC almost as often as 2nd Reality. Simply mind blowing at the time.

Ich musste kurz überlegen, wie zur Hölle du so etwas anstellst. Bis mir auffiel, dass du vermutlich nicht die Hülsenfrucht meinst.

OK the page about Cobalt mentions that story about a Kobold stealing ore. Honestly, as someone grown up in the Erzgebirge, I believe that's the first time I hear about it. Shame on me...

German Wikipedia says the name is based on some old meaning of "familiar" (house) spirit, but in a dark, sinister version. I don't see any reference to minerals.

- Firefly
- Arcane
- The Expanse

It's the introvert edition.

I bought a few shares in '18 or so, got them at €80 or something, sold again a few months later at about €100. It's wild how small a dent that's been if you look at the whole graph.

"... auch wenn der Winter bedeckt sein kann, bringe ich Ihnen eine Java-Position mit, die Sie auf Wolke 7 schweben lässt."

"... ein zum 1. Mal live gehenden Cloud-Native Gesundheitsservice mit Basis auf K.I."

Meine Deutschlehrerin hätte da mit Sicherheit mehrmals den Rotstift kreisen lassen. 😶‍🌫️

Might be "dependent texture reads", though I don't know how much this is still a problem with more recent GPU generations.

Which means, basically, sampling from some "random" (as in "not predictable") texture UV you calculate in the shader, so smarty-pants GPU can't prefetch them.

Man sollte meinen, SEPA als Bezahlsystem ist alt und ausgereift genug. Schon toll, wenn man aus heiterem Himmel eine Mahnung bekommt - und die erst einmal für Phishing Mail hält - und sich herausstellt, dass offenbar irgendwas irgendwo schief ging, ohne ein Indiz für den Kontoinhaber, wo es hakte.

Cooles Kostüm. Schlumpf?

First post on Bluesky 👋

I’ve been quietly building this game for years as a personal project and this past year I pushed some of the hardest tech yet:
✨ Infinite chunk streaming
💡 Per-voxel bounce lighting
⏳ Sand simulation
