Now with zero textures. It looks pretty similar to https://github.com/voithos/godot-precomputed-atmosphere which is based on Hillaire's "production-ready sky", but is maybe 10% of the code and takes maybe 10% of the GPU power. Not bad for a day's work!

So... none of those purported SHA-256 hashes of those inputs are accurate. E.g.,
$ echo "password" | sha256sum
6b3a55e0261b0304143f805a24924d0c1c44524821305f31d9277843b8a10f4e -
$ echo "123456" | sha256sum
e150a1ec81e8e93e1eae2c3a77e66ec6dbd6a3b460f89c1d08aecf422ee401a0 -
Bro literally just spat out gibberish that looks like a hash. Bro also decided to toss in a SHA-1 once (which is also wrong) before "correcting" itself with a SHA-256 (which was still the same (incorrect) SHA-1).
This is deeply unserious technology.

Meine Frau hat einen Essensplan mit Rezepten für die nächste Woche von #chatgpt erstellen lassen. Zur Strafe hat es Fischstäbchen vorgeschlagen , die keiner außer mir mag ...
Nach einiger Diskussion der durchaus kritischen Mitesser über die Vorschläge und möglichen Änderungen wurde der Plan als Versuchsreihe angekommen. Insgesamt hat es die Planung vereinf, mal sehen, war die Rezepte ergeben ..

#YouTube is starting to implement age restrictions , globally, to control who watches videos with mature themes, violence, or explicit language.
They plan to use AI-based age estimation. It will attempt to estimate a user's age based on viewing habits, search history, and account longevity. This is being tested with a small group of users in the U.S.
If the AI flags a user as potentially being under 18 and they try to watch an age-restricted video, they will be prompted to verify their age. The options for verification include uploading a government-issued ID, using a credit card, or, in some cases, a selfie.
Of course, this is to protect children. There's 0 chance this is really meant for government and corporations to identify who is using their site and to track them.
Users who are flagged and do not verify their age will be blocked from viewing age-restricted videos and may face other account restrictions.
Since this is global, a VPN won't circumvent the restrictions.
People seem to have voted away their freedom.

I finally got the new version of TWBlue to work, and I am very disappointed to find that it still! doesn't offer the ability to edit posts! It is clearly possible to do so, since TweeseCake can and Mastodon certainly can. Why is such an important feature not included here? It does, however, offer the ability to pin and unpin posts and to work with filters, which TweeseCake doesn't. It also seems that, although there is an option to view them, TweeseCake doesn't show favourites. That section is always blank, no matter how many posts I like. TWBlue shows them, though as with many of its other features, it only shows forty. Can't someone just create a client that actually contains all of the features of Mastodon? And before someone says "do it yourself", I am not a programmer. Both clients are excellent for most things. It just frustrates me that, if I really wanted to do everything via a client, I have to use two of them just to accomplish my goals. Fortunately, unlike Akkoma and especially Friendica, someplace.social really is accessible from the main site.

Удалить полпроекта: как мы переписывали MobX‑сторы на React Query в большом Next.js‑проекте
Привет. Я Дима Рагозин, фронтенд-разработчик в KTS . Эту статью я хочу начать с предыстории. Полтора года назад на проекте для одного крупного клиента мы получили задачу — ускорить главную страницу. К тому моменту в кодовой базе уже жили два отдельных фронтенд-приложения под две разные платформы — CSR-версия (Client Side Rendering) и SSR‑версия (Server Side Rendering), — а MobX‑сторы все время жизни проекта разрастались вместе с функциональностью. Каждый новый экран приносил еще один класс (а то и несколько), еще кучу связей, и в какой‑то момент мы стали замечать снижение воспринимаемой скорости приложения, избыточные HTTP‑запросы, сложности с поддерживаемостью и другие проблемы, которые становились критичнее по мере роста проекта. В статье я расскажу о том, как мы шаг за шагом перевели такие сторы на React Query, сократили код вокруг запросов на ≈50 % и практически избавились от повторных GET‑ов. Попутно поведаю о наших граблях и поделюсь советами по миграции.

today's #gamedev fun: hand-drawing a long flag, then coding a shader that wiggles mesh verts using a noise texture, scaled by how far right the vert UVs are (so it doesn't move on the flagpole side).
making shaders in #godot is nice because the preview window updates as you code! love it

Destroying Autocracy – August 01, 2025
Welcome to this week’s “Destroying Autocracy”.
It’s your source for curated news affecting democracy in the cyber arena with a focus on protecting it. That necessitates an opinionated Butlerian jihad against big tech as well as evangelizing for open-source and the Fediverse. Since big media’s journalism wing is flailing and failing in its core duty to democracy, this is also a collection of alternative reporting on the eternal battle between autocracy and democracy. We also cover the cybersecurity world. You can’t be free without safety and privacy.
DA comes out on Thursday and is updated through the end of day on Friday. Then we start over. So take your time in perusing it and check back in over the weekend.
FYI, my opinions will be in bold. And will often involve cursing. Because humans. Especially tech bros. And fascists. Fuck ’em.

TechDirt reports:
Back in April 2023, when Substack CEO Chris Best refused to answer basic questions about whether his platform would allow racist content, I noted that his evasiveness was essentially hanging out a “Nazis Welcome” sign.
By December, when the company doubled down and explicitly said they’d continue hosting and monetizing Nazi newsletters, they’d fully embraced their reputation as the Nazi bar.
Last week, we got a perfect demonstration of what happens when you build your platform’s reputation around welcoming Nazis: your recommendation algorithms start treating Nazi content as more than worth tolerating, to content worth promoting.
Substack’s Algorithm Accidentally Reveals What We Already Knew: It’s The Nazi Bar Now
If you are on SuckStack you are a c^nt in addition to being a willing ally of Nazis.
We start and end with good news to make the middle bearable.

Advertencia de contenido:Política de USA, xenofobia
Así que este actor que muchos recordamos de la serie «Lois & Clark», donde hacía de Superman, se va a meter a currar en ICE para ayudar a echar inmigrantes.
Que alguien le recuerde que se apellida Tanaka.
Ojalá pronto le coma la cara un leopardo.

Rashid Khalidi on Genocide Complicity, From Columbia to the White House
Prominent Palestinian historian Rashid Khalidi discusses the anti-colonial struggle against Israel, #US and European complicity in the genocide and why he won't teach at Columbia in the fall.
from #DropSiteNews

On this week’s Drop Site News livestream, Sharif Abdel Kouddous speaks with prominent Palestinian scholar and historian #RashidKhalidi, a professor emeritus at Columbia U. and the author of "The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine.”
Khalidi recently published an article in the #Guardian newspaper explaining why he is withdrawing from teaching a fall course at Columbia. This comes after #Columbia agreed to pay a $200 million settlement to the #Trump administration after it accused the university of failing to protect Jewish students during campus protests against #Israel’s genocidal assault on #Gaza...
