#Windows11 everybody. gives a tooltip when hovering the weather widget that just has the same text as the widget, but covering itself.
Also, this shows up in Swedish even though I have Windows set to English, with only my keyboard layout set to Swedish. 30+ years and still wrong.
Prompt engineer?
Sloperator!
I just released my video about the engine (and game) I've been working on.
The engine is based on dynamic SDFs, and the video describes how it works and what it makes possible.
Link in the reply!
This is my first YouTube video and it took forever - please repost!
I settle for :yodawg:

New company nickname #Microslop reflects the quality decline of Windows and their failed attempts at applying AI slop.

If that's true, then the language would have value even without the borrow checking part, and would be so much easier to work and prototype in.

It must fully enclose the morphed surfaces while remaining as tight as possible to maximize throughput. We want to minimize the red and blue regions in the debug view.

PowerToys had a Light Switch enabled by default which suddenly started to enforce Light Mode theme instead of my Dark choice.
In case you wonder wtf happened after last nights enforced Win10 reboot.
Super Mario World has an extremely eclectic art style whereby many enemies are drawn in completely different ways. Development files reveal Mario went through many stylistic changes; it is possible that all the enemies were made to fit Mario, but at different points in time.

These very long and good @gameengineering.bsky.social episodes are mostly voice, no slides or anything, so I can recommend just listening to them.
My favorite app is pocketcasts.com/podcasts/46a...
Super fun, as expected!
