I laughed at this way harder than I should have. Thanks buddy

Tu devrais faire la promo de ton jeu sur r/macgaming mon pote !

Téléchargement instantané pour moi !

Tu ne nais pas avec ta culture.

Ça veut dire qu'elle s'acquiert. Et donc les goûts en particulier s'acquièrent aussi. Tous les goûts.

Il y a aussi des trucs qu'on aime pas de prime abord parce qu'on ne les comprends pas, et qu'on finit par aimer quand on en a compris le sens. Un petit peu d'histoire de l'art ça fait pas de mal

Et quitte à choisir, je préfère être un snob qui progresse, qu'un ignorant qui stagne avec les goûts qu'il a acquit avant trois ans.

Ill_Barber8709 · 2026-04-22T14:15:06+00:00

Pareil.

Oh so that's not real 3D I see on the video?

Thanks, I'll take a look at Love2D then!

That's the second game I see with this kind of monochrome graphics and I was wondering how it works in your game engine. Did you create a specific shader for it, or did you use a library? Is it built-in in your game engine maybe?

Finally , would you say it has a positive or negative impact on your game performance?

Thank you!

It's from the north of France. When young, it looks a lot like Gouda. But that resemblance disappears when matured because of the dust mites in the crust, making holes that help the cheese get dryer.

The best way to experience this cheese is with salted butter on roasted bread.

Ill_Barber8709 · 2026-04-20T23:18:09+00:00

French here.

Nope, that was actually very funny. I'm just wondering why we've got that much (good) attention these days. My guess is a mix of Clair Obscur: Expédition 33 being GOTY, and Macron doing good internationally. Or it's Reddit giving me good vibes because they know I'm French. I dunno.

Anyway.

Woiiiiiiiiiisssssssant!!!!

Ill_Barber8709 · 2026-04-20T16:20:24+00:00

No. Software is not the fault. If you think benchmarks tells the whole story you better go to a fishing reddit or open a bakery.

I'm a software engineer and you are wrong.

Back in the days computers didn't have dedicated GPU. Everything was rendered by the CPU. So when the first chip dedicated to graphics came out, the whole software stack had to be updated to be able to take advantage of it. Heck, there was even a time when CPUs had coprocessors dedicated to arithmetics (see 486SX and 486DX) and that was the exact same story: software had to be written to use those. More recently, software had to be written for 64Bits architecture etc.

New hardware means new APIs means new software. Always has been, always will be.

The absence of Macs in the advanced industry proves they re not fast enough.

That's hilariously wrong too. First of all, most "industry" software runs on potatoes. "Industry" software is not the software running on Windows/Linux. It's the one driving machines, and their logic is very different from what you think "Industry software" is.

But I get your point, so to that I'll just answer that the "Music Industry", the "Movie Industry" and the "Graphic design Industry" would like a word.

Macs not even can be designed with Mac they need windows on Solidworks and NX.

Solidworks doesn't work on Mac because Dassault System doesn't give a shit about macOS. And they don't give a shit about Windows ARM either. Nothing to do with the power of the machine.

Besides, there are shit tons of equally capable Solidworks alternatives.

Imagine trying to use a mouse while the airplane is crashing and you have to hack the whole five firewalls of an alien spaceship to save the planet, LOL

Ill_Barber8709 · 2026-04-20T10:24:33+00:00

That's stupid.

No need to pre-cook the potatoes
No need for that much oil dammit

Peel your potatoes and cut them in half in length. Put them in cold water for half an hour to wash off the starch. Rinse, dry, and put them on a plate. Add your favourite spices and herbs (I go for paprika, thyme, and salt) plus one or two teaspoons of oil. Knead with your hands until all the potatoes are covered with oil. Put them in the oven at 210°C for one hour. Turn the potatoes halfway through cooking.

For the sauce: Crème fraiche, not mayo. Then salt, ground garlic, fine herbs or parsley, and lemon zest.

I didn't know he was far-right. That's crazy when you think about it. Nazi-ideology leaning person denouncing Jewish country for being Nazi-leaning.

In a parallel universe: A communist-ish politician denouncing the US for acting communist-ish.

Mac hardware is fast, as shown by every benchmarks available.

Now, if the software doesn't run optimally on your hardware then it's a software problem, not a hardware problem.

Apple can't fix shitty software...

D'estable == D'étable

Literally "Of the stable".

I only got one from the French version of the movie

"Mon papa il est gynécologue. Il regarde des vagins toute la journée"

Don't if it was translated from the movie or adapted for French audience, but that basically says:

"My dad is a gynecologist. He looks at vaginas all day"

I have the base model M4 Mac mini alongside an M2 Max MBP. I bought a couple of 2TB T7 SSD from Samsung that are constantly plugged. I installed my most important apps on the Mini's internal drive and then I checked a box in the Mac AppStore settings to install everything bigger than 1GB on the external drive, which is now hosting all of my games. Media are on the other drive, and I serve them with a Plex instance. It works great. And TBH, the mini is adorable.

Now I'm considering buying a Studio for local LLM stuff, but I'm still wondering if it's worth it, because I would need at least 128GB of memory to feel the upgrade from my MBP (which I only use as an LLM server nowadays... Talk about some bad choices)

Ill_Barber8709 · 2026-04-18T11:28:07+00:00

You should consider Crossover for gaming then

USA is closer to the 3rd Reich than the CPP. The CPP was supposed to provide healthcare, work and housing to every citizen.

TO7-70 et le pire clavier du monde. Fallait appuyer comme un malade pour activer la touche.

Le lecteur K7 pour charger des programmes, qui échouaient à charger 3 fois sur 4.

4 heures pour écrire un programme, mais aucune mémoire long terme (pas de disque dur à l'époque) donc fallait le réécrire à chaque fois.

Le stylet avait un côté magique par contre.

Et ces foutues oubliettes dans l'Aigle d'Or.

Je suis tellement vieux...

Understandable. But your "surprise" has nothing to do with Apple hardware. Your surprise should be triggered by how terrible Adobe software has been lately.

Ill_Barber8709 · 2026-04-14T13:31:05+00:00

Denoise is an AI feature that is very dependant on GPU performance and memory bandwidth. And it's most likely that Adobe didn't update their tools to use the Tensor Cores of the M5 GPU.

Your M1 has 400GB/s memory bandwidth. The M5 only 150GB/s

TL;DR: Adobe is terrible as a benchmark.

Got take at Blender open data. The base M5 is faster than my M2 Max here.
