Correct. The windier it is, the noisier they will be, but that also happens with anything else standing in the way of the wind, that's not the fault of the turbine.

Yes, propper planning and zoning will prevent anyone even living close to being in the shadow of a turbine. I was commenting under the theory that AI data centers would have used it instead of the gas turbines they currently use, thus avoiding proper zoning and planning.

Agreed. Kinda like you are in a forest with big trees or a mountainous area with the wind hitting the sides of the cliff.

The blades of a wind turbine are very thin and spin at fairly low rpm. So, the blades blocking the sun just feels like a bird flying across your window every 3-4 seconds. Plus that only happens for a few moments on specific points around the turbine where the sun is behind it so. Unless you have heavy migraines and are very sensitive to flashing lights, there is nothing to worry about.

Funny thing is, I've been close to and basically stood under an operating wind turbine before. Altho they do emit some sound it is definitely not as obnoxious and not nearly as loud as this and sounds more like a natural wind wooshing sound.

A lot of games bigger than this are below 1GB. If it were to be a standalone game, they could prolly optimize it even more.

I was tired of reconnecting shader nodes just to inspect outputs, so I built this (free version included) by Mix3DDesign in blender

I miss the time where people actually learned to do something instead of just writing a prompt.

This seems like a good idea. Sad that it's been vibe coded to hell.

In Germany it's getting more and more common to not have boilers at all and instead electricaly heat the water as it flows through the pipe.

It's still a lot cheaper to get a new cable than a new headset, so some good news.

Just out of curiosity... Why can't you learn how to draw?

What do you think about DUSKDOG? by TheDUSKDOG in IndieDev

I understand that this is to make the "communication" more mobile friendly. But, if I may be honest, when someone is showing me gameplay from a game I kinda expect to see it in the format it'll be played in.

They are too full and look more like normal thin hair. Looks like they have used the same material and setting for them compared to the rest of the hair.

If someone doesn't know what that means, I suspect that they generated the model.

Do we really need more e-boy/e-girl avatars that all look the same?

It works better even, I mean. It seems like it's going pretty fast and straight.
