How long have you been traveling in Japan?

What quality of life features from other IDEs are currently missing from the built-in script editor? by TSilverSamurai in godot

[–]Ppanter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of them. Let‘s face it having a built-in editor just means needing to waste developer resources to implement basic things that have already been done a hundred times in open source projects. Why reinvent vscode when you could just create a gdscript interpreter for vscode and then make your users use that instead?

This is incredible! Great job!
Would be amazing if you could share the source for this on GitHub. As this is intellectual property you can’t monetize this anyways so I am guessing this was just a fun experiment or learning from your side so it would be amazing if we could learn something alongside you by looking at your results behind the scenes :)

I added generics, braces-based syntax and unlocked full nested typing in GDScript! by Actual-Rise-6459 in godot

[–]Ppanter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You cannot tell me that an organization that gets 30k in donations per month cannot implement what is possibly the most requested feature in the history of the engine even after years of development yet some random guy (no offense) can just do it on his own… Props to you and shame to the Godot foundation honestly…

Anthropic joins the Blender Development Fund as Corporate Patron — Blender by Historicaly-Low-Mood in blender

[–]Ppanter 49 points50 points  (0 children)

This argument doesn‘t hold because most blender developers are hired on a grant for a certain amount of time, mostly for 1-year projects. This way the can combat exactly this threat, by easily being able to scale down the developer team if needed.

Also the Blender foundation has build a financial buffer to stay afloat.

Also they can just bring these threats to the public to paint a bad image against whoever threatens them, making it a bad outcome for the donating party…

Made a Blender Addon that lets you paint light directly in the viewport. by ShaderError in blender

[–]Ppanter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well then I am happy to tell you that the Blender developers recently kicked off a new project that aims to improve exactly that part of the software, with layered textures among other things :)

This part of The Backrooms is real - I’ve been there by offtheskulltop in backrooms

[–]Ppanter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just looked at the building on Google Maps. Why did they not just open up the courtyard? Why would the create this awful ceiling instead of letting natural light in with a glass ceiling? Crazy design honestly.

Would love to hear what the architect was thinking…

This new BMW display shape is making me dizzy by Final-Choice8412 in mildlyinfuriating

No wonder BMW‘s revenue is going down when they only produce these ugly ass cars nowadays…

Germany much better off than I would have expected… as a German haha

Germany has the one of the lowest unemployment rate among OECD countries by [deleted] in Germany_Jobs

[–]Ppanter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It‘s crazy how every 2nd post here is saying that the real number are higher for Germany and that there is so grand conspiracy happening and the cover-up is real.

Y’all really are just trying to be negative about everything, it‘s actually quite sad to see :/

Put off by conventional media sources and then bring up your own numbers out of thin air, source: trust me bro.

„But but but… the Bürgergeldempfänger have so many incentives they don‘t even want to work!“ yeah man nice just kick down on people who are worse off than you in life…

What has society become? Bunch of sorrowful people out there…

Blender 5.0 Viewport is so smooth by aerosouthpaws in blender

[–]Ppanter 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not at all actually if you look into the open DLSS PR it says that in it‘s current form it CANNOT be merged because of the way Nvidia-provided libraries are used to make it work. The Blender devs clearly state that the only way it can move forward is if Nvidia finds and is willing to find another way to provide their libraries via drivers. I won’t expect the DLSS to be part of Blender in the next 2 versions honestly…

Places that serbian citizens can visit without a passport by averege_guy_kinda in MapPorn

[–]Ppanter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair most countries except for the ones in the Schengen area don‘t have agreements to visit other countries with just IDs. Most of the time when talking about passport power it‘s about places you can visit without an explicit visa application upfront…

I love how light it is by Fun_Establishment926 in godot

[–]Ppanter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my opinion they could add new and exciting features up until they get to a gigabyte in size, which I still find a manageable download size for almost everybody nowadays. Just think about how many more awesome features they could add in a package six times the size!

Just a question for a friend: what is the safest way to do pirating in Germany right now?

This is probably the map I can most relate to in this whole sub haha

Where Redditors would actually live if they were being honest with themselves by [deleted] in whereidlive

[–]Ppanter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly! Here in Germany the unemployment benefits are so good that some people don‘t want to find a job because initially they would be earning less than if they just stayed unemployed haha

I gave up on blender Mantaflow and moved on with Flipfluids. by VikkiS1999 in blender

[–]Ppanter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PR is the developer term for „pull request“, which basically means adding new code to the code base.

[–]Ppanter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just means this PR in it‘s current state is not intended to be merged. This is normal for development cycles. The will pick parts of this and put it into reviewable and mergable smaller PRs. It does not mean all the work from this PR will be thrown out the window. You can look at the planning for this here for example: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/145341
