You made my day! :) Thank you :)

I wanted to learn OpenGL and shaders so I made this thing in c/[email protected]

That's so cool! I loved it, and then you panned around and it was like a little galaxy :)

I made a tiny WebGL game/thingy! (thefunnybrain.com)
 

I just saw this community, and wanted to cheer myself up with showing something I made one weekend a year or so ago. :)

It was meant to be a virtual goldfish bowl/screensaver gimmick to keep me company, but then I added interaction and it made me happy to feel like I was helping them? :)

Hope this is okay to share as I made this and the site it's embedded on (I didn't make itch.io that would be lots of work lol)

Two images, one with Thomas the Tank Engine looking normal and happy, and the second of a similar train looking delapidated and rusted. The caption is "Meth. Not even once."

As much as I'm a proud Linux user and Microsoft aren't at all in line with my values, I upvoted as this is massively relevant to the world of retro computing, and I found it interesting. :)

Guessing a lot of folks will have reflexively downvoted based on the red rag that is the word Microsoft, but nice to read historical stuff like this, thank you for sharing it! :)

What is your unconventional art? in c/[email protected]

I love making editor UI for developer tools at work - way too much care goes into trying to make things pretty and maybe even help us save time if we're lucky! 😅

I'm not sure I get it :/

It maybe rings a (packard) bell, but not much beyond that? :)

Rocksteady Is Building Their Next Game On Unreal 5 in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

From a read of their wikipedia, it looks like they've been consistently on Unreal :) I can imagine they'd have some people who know that program back to front if they still work there! :)

I tried to install unreal, and it was deeply not fun (linux, epic launcher, disk space, other pains), so I've never used it. :)

Are there any recommended "achievement" or life goal trackers out there that are FOSS/not advert-bloated? (lemmy.ml)
 

I could spreadsheet or make something but would like to ask, from searching there doesn't seem to be a program that'll let me list things to try and achieve, note them as done, maybe assign a score to each goal?

After losing a notebook, I thought I'd ask about a new-fangled approach. :) Thank you for reading this and happy new year! :)

Are there any books or films that scratch the same itch as Blade runner/Philip K Dick? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi everyone :) I was wondering if anyone would be interested in chatting about things similar to Blade Runner/Philip K Dick? I've read pretty much all of his books that I get my hands on, but am sadly hitting the point where it's an event when I find one I've not already read. :)

Do any other Science Fiction writers or films scratch the same itch? :)

To throw one of his own into the discussion: We Can Build You is fantastic - much slower, but explores androids, and their impact on the human characters. :)
