Been thinking of picking it up myself
03.02.2026 21:47 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0sometimes a stroke is easier to get right if the canvas is flipped. Sometimes (very rare) my rough sketch will look good enough on the first try that I just line art it immediately.
Both of these I have seen as proof enough that an artist is a fake and a fraud. I think I'll just stay coding man
seeing so many callout posts of artists who clearly trace ai because they do x, y, and z. Nobody does x, y, or z.
...I do x, y, and z. I guess flipping the canvas is now a red flag?? I flip it 100x while drawing so I don't get too used to the image and miss glaring flaws QwQ

Wanted to draw them together; this pose is referenced from one of their videos together ...<3

SSDs are (in my experience) much more reliable *but* come with the caveat that the data can decay if you go multiple years without powering them on. In a pc this shouldn't be an issue though

05.01.2026 22:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I've got a cool bug where switching to full-screen on AMD iGpus on Windows will cause my engine to hang indefinitely at vkAcquireSwapchainImageKHR() and the current workaround I have is to set the borderless window height to (screenDimY + 1).
I have no idea if it's my fault, I ran out of ideas.
