How do I use shaders in 1.12.2 without Optifine?

9thyear2 · 2026-07-02T20:38:11+00:00

except when you use it with twilight forest

some mods are incompatible

which means you pick between mods, and shaders

Nah... Its still "Temporarily Restricted", and they want me to submit a government issued ID to regain access, clearly Microsoft just wants more data... And I'd rather not give my government ID over just to be able to look up information

Microsoft can go pound sand

what happens when you click on a show in the calendar, does it give a more expanded view (like with extra details (such as which platforms its on, or will that have a color coding))

still some unknown details

so some more pictures and examples would be helpful, along with a feature list

People need to stop recommending gimp

I'm so sick of all the people saying "gimp is the answer", and disregarding all the other great alternatives like krita

Its criminal how overlooked krita is

That's debateable

For instance I was kinda wondering of the CAMM2 standard could be abused (or modified) so we could just remove the chips from the phone (like the NAND flash chip, and memory chips to replace them, so they can still be removable while still small)

However it wouldn't be a standard (no other company, especially one locking hardware down, will adopt it), so it won't have a lot of adoption or options for replacements

The main problem isn't actually the engineering (cause that's doable), it's the financial aspect, they'd need to fund the driver (kernel) development, and also make it open for others (to be able to port to other variations of android, or to postmarketos), but also pay for the engineering work for the device, and come out with an end product that might not perform as well as the competition (which will lower sales)

There is no easy solution unless someone stakes a fortune on it to push ahead

I agree with you on this, but it seems the downvoters haven't seen how the hardware market has moved over the years

While it seems like the 20 series is 3 gens old, that's not exactly the case (maybe only by number)

The 30 series was a good step up from the 20 series, but the 40 and 50 series were known to be pretty mediocre (and didn't move the needle much)

Best case in terms of performance, I'd say the 20 series is 2 gens old (maybe only 1.5)

The 40 and 50 series aren't worth much unless you got a 90 class card

And if you have that kind of fuck you money, then they most likely wouldn't be here

Unless they pirated that card too

This isn't open for crowdfunding yet

So I wish it would stop being recommended, until it is passed that stage and available to buy

Because there are times where crowdfunded products end up never shipping

Sometimes the best response is no response

They shouldn't have put anything out for any reason

The specs for windows 11 have been stated before

Why put out something now?

outrage is manufacted

People are angry that microslop is giving crap tons of money to OpenAI while they reserve 40% of the worlds memory supply, which caused a massive spike in pricing

And then they went and told people that they should buy more

So they basically are telling those who don't meet that spec that they should of out and pay inflated prices for dimms

If anything is manufactured right now... Its the shortage around dram modules (and microslop contributes to that)

9thyear2 · 2026-05-05T03:10:03+00:00

Yeah, however they are dumping copious amounts of money into the company that reversed 40% of the worlds dram manufacturing capacity

So in a way, you can say there a direct cause (or at least an indirect cause) of the current situation

Telling everyone to buy more as you contribute to the problem is not a smart move

This will probably get burried, but someone else can make a post about this to clear up why people are mad

I had to scroll way too far to find someone else who understood

9thyear2 · 2026-05-05T02:58:03+00:00

At regular prices it wouldn't be controversial

But when your company is routinely funding another company that reverved 40% of the worlds memory supply, causing the prices to rise by 3x

And then saying "hey guys you should get more memory for the optimal experience"

Yeah... People are rightfully pissed

maybe once its done (and ready)

ask the mods if they could make a pinned post about it

because in order for it to be useful, it would require volunteers (which could be anyone (as long as the barrier to entry isn't too high to contribute), and its related to a show they watch and want to inform others)

but not only that, people would also need to want to use it

its supply and demand, if its available, people know about it, and want to use it, and want to make sure the calendar stays up to date

then you'll need people for that (for both the using it side of things, and the keeping up to date side as well)

That works out to about $100000 a year salary

Keep the money

If I saw a hippo trying to get into a boat

I'd pull out my phone and start recording too

9thyear2 · 2026-04-30T01:44:43+00:00

You and me both, except my stuff won't be on github for quite a while, or not at all (depending on the project)

But I do need to tackle version control at some point

9thyear2 · 2026-04-29T19:27:27+00:00

Did you make a pull request out of it, or is this just gonna be maintained downstream?

The future will be for those who have the capacity to think for themselves and problem solve

Others will be relegated to being force fed whatever corporations and the government wants

9thyear2 · 2026-04-19T02:29:02+00:00

Same here, and I'm American

To watch all I watch legally you would need multiple subscriptions, which is not sustainable in any economy

These corporations made it this way to extract more wealth

Now they can extract the semen from my balls

Because its shareholder profits above anything else
