Doom scrolling is dangerous. Not in the tome wasting kind of way - okay, yes in that way too, but apparently I'm now learning shavian. Hey, did you know there's a discord for it?

I somehow went from watching videos on black holes to a new hyperfixation of learning modern runes.

Sure whoever posts it would get the disney cease and desist but what if we made a bot that makes bots that use ai to create disney imagery and post it?

How far down the chain of bot made bots would disney need to go?

How long til this digital Grey goo locks up the entirety of the internet?

Hey so...weird dream idea.

Most artists aren't very happy about the whole ai thing, right?

Couldn't we turn ai into a legal oroboros by using it to generate massive amounts of inappropriate disney stuff? Leverage one evilCorp against another?

I think most people underestimate how much work stuff like this takes. Even I regularly underestimate how much work it's going to be before I start in on it. Glad you didn't have to retopo from the sculpt and did it the other way around instead. I hate retopo.

full disclosure, it was originally an experiment to make the simplest suction cup normal map that i could just slap on a model rather than having lots and lots of geometry for each suction cup. i made a more accurate version first, but it didnt bake so well.

couldn't sleep. here's a pentapus.

There is a blender addon that I think does just that but is the one I referenced that's $15. Besides, I don't want extra strain on blender. It struggles enough as it is.

Oh - AND it does some things that an unknowing user may find...concerning. It won't work if you don't have ffmpeg properly installed and at one point it opens powershell to convert the screenshot images to mp4, then delete the screenshots.

Oh, I do *not* enjoy coding. It's mostly just recital of all the cursewords I know. Even in the comments. Maybe especially in the comments.

As for making it public, I honestly have no idea how.

ooo that's good feedback. I don't know if I'm willing to alter the program to include a timer though. It was fundamentally supposed to just make timelapse creation easier so I would actually make timelapses since I'm too lazy to hit record on OBS.

Fleshclock. Made for a friend.

Mostly this was for testing the timelapse software. Calculations were a little off. 800ms got me a 4 minute video, so I might have to go through youtube to show it off.

It is done. Looks like bsky allows 3 minute videos. So if I'm going to sculpt for 2 hours, I need to set my timelapse app to ~800 milliseconds. Maybe tomorrow we can see how well it works.

If you know of a free alternative, DON'T TELL ME.

I'm so close to being done I can taste it.

It doesn't even matter if there's a better alternative now. This is my bed and I intend to lose sleep over it rather than sleep in it.

So I wanted a timelapse of my blender work. Looked into some addons to do it and they all cost money. OF COURSE this means I instantly thought, "but I can make that!"

Queue the programming montage.

So I guess I'm awake now. 2 hours sleep is good enough, right? And a new irrational fear to boot! Thanks subconscious! You da realist!

Plot twist: it was an assisted suicide. He certainly wasn't going to kill himself, and he wouldn't do something as pedestrian as a cop assisted suicide. Besides, they wouldn't anyway; that precinct is already in his pocket. Doesn't change anything for you on death row.

So anyway, here's a nightmare where a billionaire threatens to kill your family. He has enough money to follow through and get away with it. He has so much money that the only recourse is to kill him now before he can enact anything. So now your family is on the run and you're on death row.

Oh, you'd like to sleep? That's cute.

The house is actually still nondescript. I was building the inside pretty well, I thought.

There was supposed to be a hidden door that connects to the rest of the house behind the audience, but I'm losing motivation for that. Maybe I won't complete the list after all.

Not sure if you can tell from the tone of these posts but I'm salty.

Can't forget the audience. No lights inside yet cause honestly I don't like all the giant orange outlines including light sources causes. There's probably a way to turn that off for just the light sources but whatever.

Fully stocked, of course. I spent way too long on this dumb water bottle.

Mini fridge. Cause who wants to hop up stairs for water while their ankles are cuffed together?

Massage table. I didn't bother with the weird chest gloryhole thing cause I have no idea what it's for and can't find anyone (or any google result!) that does.

Stripper pole. Mandatory pink. Fite me.

Sybian. Have you looked up how much these cost? Insane. I think all the money is to cover an industrial sized motor in there.

St Andrew's cross.
