colour belongs between black and white. between 0 and 1. but machines only understand 0 and 1. perhaps that blessing is its own curse.

@cbts004art am i allowed to be fooled by the abstraction of catgirls yet

@Izengabe_ @surman4schools @stacycay The structure and emphasis of the statement contradicts that interpretation.

@HomicidalGrouse @stacycay @surman4schools Notice that the emphasis here is at "cease all programs that promote the concept of sex and gender transition," and is *supplemented* by 'at any age,' which contradicts your interpretation.

[pie75 @paii75]

@HomicidalGrouse @MrCrystalMighty @stacycay @surman4schools you are just wrong, dude

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 @LillyByteGames I'm still not clear on how any of this is damaging to the project.

From my point of view:
Either leadership deserves the criticism, so resolving the problems will help Godot's future,
or
the criticism is undeserved, therefore inconsequential.

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 @LillyByteGames PR's and github issues are for resolving problems with the project; they wouldn't help with meta (despite the tag) problems like leadership, direction, or philosophy.

Those things are changed through public and constant discourse.

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 I don't feel I've wasted my time.
I /could/ read old issues to refresh my memory, but,

Like I said, I'm not very opinionated on core-devs; I just find your dismissive approach to these criticisms to be odd.

I don't have a reason to feel strongly about Godot's leaders. Do you?

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 My rambling aside,
Unfortunately I don't keep tabs of when I read something odd on github, discord, reddit, or rocket, nor of every person who may or may not say something odd, nor of every .cpp that looks a bit strange.
All I can say is: It happened, I can't speak to how often.

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 Many issues creep upon those who avoid talking about potentials and hypotheticals; those are the domains of most problems, but especially problems which cause grievous harm, and cannot be mitigated.
One should anticipate injury, not hope it may heal.

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 Or, I shouldn't say 'rejections,' more-so 'aversions.' But I can't speak to anything more than it "seeming" odd.

I'm only here because I find it odd to assume ill-will when someone wants to discuss something they think is harmful.

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 I have no real opinion on leadership. I'm a user, not a contributor, mostly for lack of relevant skill.
The most I can say is that I've seen many odd rejections even with Godot 4; and the parts of the engine I'm most interested in, seem to be ancient, and petrifying to everyone.

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 @LillyByteGames For an open-source project & its community to adapt and thrive, would it not be /beneficial/ to address things that harm it? -- even if those things come from deep inside the project or community?

Leaders are important; they can make or break a project and its community.

[pie75 @paii75]

@pocketbell4649 @LillyByteGames For the sake of argument -- assume that LillyByte's criticisms are entirely correct.

Isn't strong-headed leaders making poor decisions something to be concerned about?

If leadership is harming the project & community, wouldn't instability - change - be beneficial?

[pie75 @paii75]

@ooOPizzaHeadOoo It very much sounds to me like a driver issue -- who knows to what degree. I /might/ pull out my 7800 GT and see what I can find; but Nvidia vs ATI is a tricky slope to walk.

[pie75 @paii75]

@ooOPizzaHeadOoo That is an impressively old card!
It's odd that it doesn't run, though -- my GT 620 at least ran Godot, and was usable for Godot 3.

Godot 4 primarily uses Vulkan, but it now has a GL backend, which should kick-in automatically... I'm not sure if there's a way to force it.

[pie75 @paii75]

@LillyByteGames It seems the whole blog website is inaccessible... that doesn't bode well.

I'm curious about it, but I think I shouldn't go looking around.

[pie75 @paii75]

@LillyByteGames @sh4na Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Remi currently in charge of the foundation at large?

For the past 2 or so years, it seems to me that Juan isn't really a big part of Godot, but Remi still seems to be around.

Though the people I see most often are Calinou and A Thousand Ships.

[pie75 @paii75]

@DCAnonBro For Unity to maintain the same feature, it would have to evaluate if that feature has a benefit to revenue growth that is proportionally superior to the cost of paying its developers to work on it, AND NOT work on something else. For Unity, it's either/or, never both.

[pie75 @paii75]

@nimblebucket OH! YOU MEANT /THAT/ ROTATION!

I was so confused — I thought you were talking about a rolling log sort of deal.

I'll replicate this on my end and see what I can find.
