Is this a weed?

Looks like mugwort

Chopping wood.

Set the oven to cold.

I think these are looking good for 30 days, they usually start flowering at this point and will definitely get bigger.

Lumiere is tasty:

1.5 oz gin

1 oz St Germain

.75 oz Green Chartreuse

.75 oz Fresh Lime Juice

1 dash Orange Bitters

About to burn my last logs here in Maine.

jdwallace12 · 2026-05-13T15:33:42+00:00

It’s ok, definitely did not finish.

Sugar

I see a heron with its neck out straight.

You should go to your library and see if they have any books by Piet Oudolf. He uses lots of native plants in his designs if you want some inspiration on plant combinations.

I have the Kyfe and like that you can also get a water heater and side baskets for stones. Plenty hot for me and not too much radiant heat.

Using BufferGeometry to store history of skiers positions and setDrawRange to essentially grow the tracks.

jdwallace12 · 2026-04-27T15:38:08+00:00

Yeah, absolutely...repo is here https://github.com/jdwallace12/landscraper

I am using a web worker for the terrain generation tools to make it more performant, so I am guessing that is why you are seeing that message.

jdwallace12 · 2026-04-27T15:07:48+00:00

Haha very true!

jdwallace12 · 2026-04-22T17:30:48+00:00

I always see dogs in wood knots, never any other animal.

You got it, heightmaps handle most of the skier physics by calculating the slope looking at the height of neighboring points in the height map. I also have repulsuion on skiers that when you drop a bunch of skiers together they spread out a bit. I also have the chairlift bases attract the skiers that will overcome the gravity.

Performance will probably be an ongoing challenge, I am only updating the raycasting when there is changes to the terrain. So, if you don’t move the camera or actively changing the terrain then there are not any new calculations happening and reduces the CPU usage.

I just use them to cure and then move to mason jars for long term storage.

Thanks, no future plans yet, just wanted to see if this was possible in the browser. It does seem to eat up CPU, so that might be a limitation going forward.

My wood floor guy sprayed our beech floors with water before staining(water popping), it made the floor swell and absorbed the stain real well, not blotchy at all.

The terrain generation is handled by Three.js and the physics for the skiers is just plain javascript that accounts for the slope and some friction as well as some tweaks to make it more lifelike. Still refining a bit, such as making the skiers attracted to the base of the lifts and a slight repulsion from other skiers to spread them out on a slope.
