Oh, I’ve read this one before! The cocaine was so pervasive, they even found it in the blanks! Too bad publishing that makes the report kind of useless.
If you really want to see something, and you’re sloppy with your blanks, an LCMS can detect anything you want.
- Comment on Netflix Becomes Max-Level Patron Of Blender's Development Fund 1 week ago:
People have been begging for big tech companies that rely on open source software to support development. Netflix finally did the dang thing.
More, please!

Again, reading the announcement, it sounds like the advice the developer received in school was to use it. He’s realized now that it was a bad call.

The announcement suggests the developer wrote all the code, but used the slop robot to generate assets. Sounds like the issue is that making art assets actually takes skill, and is something most programmer types underestimate.

I am once again begging people not to post a headline that starts with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know.
- Comment on I have An Idea for A Better Space, SciFi, Exploration Entertainment, Than Even ‘Star Trek’. 5 weeks ago:
You have some good replies here, but I’ll add one piece. You’ve imagined a world where your primary characters are Good. No killing, just defensive armaments, all about diplomacy and exploration.
Consider, though, that interesting stories have conflict. Conflict needs to have consequences to the characters you’re following, or it’s not very interesting.
You’re describing a world that would probably be better to live in than that of Star Trek. But I’m not sure it would result in better stories.
