Created a new game for the UDC Jam 39, CorruptION! A scifi action Survivors game about clearing out corruption while under attack by swarms of enemies!

Researchers at SDU Soft Robotics developed a worm-inspired limbless soft robot with inflatable muscles and a flexible kirigami skin.
It can crawl, turn, rotate, and avoid obstacles using controlled body movements and sensors.
The robot could be useful for search and rescue, inspection, and exploration.
kimodo.cpp is live. NVIDIA's Kimodo, the best AI animation model right now, running natively on CPU or Vulkan.
Type a sentence, get character animation, locally on your own machine.
Before, you needed the whole PyTorch and CUDA stack standing up before you could generate a single motion. Now it is a native C++/GGML build that loads GGUF models and comes with a local web demo. No Python environment to fight.
It gives you SMPL-X, and from there you retarget onto pretty much any skeleton you want, like Mixamo.
Great piece of work @jichiep
kimi k3 +gpt image2 + seedance 2.0 is a cheat code
I gave Kimi K3 a simple idea, and it created a detailed prompt that led to this video. The result turned out surprisingly good

China open-sourced a model that reconstructs any scene in 3D from a regular video, in real-time.
one camera. no LiDAR. 10,000+ frames without falling apart.
just walk around with your camera and watch the entire world get rebuilt in 3D at 20 fps.
โ runs at ~20 FPS on a single GPU
โ Stable over 10,000+ frames
โ Beats optimization-based methods on benchmarks
โ Works on drone footage, driving videos, indoor walkthroughs
100% open source.

Iran announces it is ending all negotiations with the US and vows to "completely" block the Strait of Hormuz, per CNBC.
THIS GUY VIBE CODED A WEBSITE WHERE ANYONE ON THE INTERNET CAN FEED HIS CAT
you go to the site, press a button, and his cat's automatic feeder dispenses food in real time
there's a live camera so you can watch the cat walk up and eat what you just gave it
and it's not just his cat. other cat owners can connect their feeders too so you can feed random cats around the world from your browser
he's also adding computer vision to detect when a cat is actually near the feeder so only videos with cats in them get shown at the top
a weight scale and cat recognition is also being added for a "greed leaderboard" tracking which cat eats the most
completely useless, zero business model, and no monetization strategy
and yet this is the kind of weird internet project that goes viral overnight because everyone immediately gets it and wants to try it (including me)
@Jessiebutter2@TheBest_Viral Check the words on the weights. They're consistent, it's not AI.
Which makes those either implants or some truly legendary chesticles.
