I'm starting a new chapter of my life and I can't juggle two lives online. Since this is my anonymous online alt, I'm saying goodbye from this account. It's been a fun 7 years and I've learned a lot.

Thank you, everyone

@eigenbom ooh, exciting! here's to good times and fun code!

[nybbit @nybbit]

@StephaneKyles no, it's my own renderer/game engine that i started a couple weeks ago, also no raytracing (yet)

[nybbit @nybbit]

may i offer you some dielectric spheres in these trying times

[nybbit @nybbit]

who decided to make the eyes metallic and smooth

(also ive decided to keep this project #opengl, ill use #vulkan when i do real-time raytracing)

[nybbit @nybbit]

my favorite part about #vulkan is knowing EXACTLY what state everything is in, it's SO GOOD

[nybbit @nybbit]

while im transitioning my toy engine to vulkan, have some (cursed) debugging screenshots

[nybbit @nybbit]

@SWinxyTheCat yes, i'm familiar with vulkan - i've used it before :p

[nybbit @nybbit]

ive been stuck in opengl graphics debugging hell for the last two days, maybe it’s time to switch to vulkan

new animal crossing update is kinda weird

[nybbit @nybbit]

something has obviously gone wrong, i just wrote a bunch of code for my renderer and ran it and it all worked???

where is the resource leak that is supposed to happen when i do this

[nybbit @nybbit]

found a great cartoony pbr model (by dmitrynerovny, https://t.co/PYj2lYmjrA), but it's got this weird artifact that happens due to the normal map + specular

i've double checked my renderer's math and blender renders it similarly

any ideas for fixing?

update: i finished half-life: alyx in ~10 hours and can finally get back to working on stuff... until the next half-life comes out

[nybbit @nybbit]

here's me realizing im about to encounter manhacks

by the way, #HalfLifeAlyx is incredible

now would be a great time to start your drone delivery service

probably a little overkill but you could automate the whole thing from sanitizing the drone to finding a package in a warehouse to putting it on your doorstep

int err = pthread_create(&thread, NULL, my_pun, (void *)t);

always fun to look through old code of a shipped piece of software and seeing
