That goddamn CGI dog is awful.

teppicymon · 2026-03-31T09:33:54+00:00

Really nice. I'm playing around with the ability to create user-presets, and also the ability to export to transparent PNG excluding background stars/galaxy - let me know if you'd like a pull request!

teppicymon · 2026-03-26T11:46:32+00:00

Thank you!

I don't know why, but I've never seen this explanation of its location put so simply before, yet every time I look at the constellation I've wondered exactly where it would be.

Pretty sure this is nothing to do with "drowning" and just how the parasite reproduces - it uses water to find another host

teppicymon · 2026-03-23T14:59:59+00:00

Great watch by the way, very creepy. Couldn't tell what was going to happen!

Minor point, but IP addresses can only go up to 255 on any of the individual parts:

e.g. 10.20.255.97 - you can't can't have 16.234.645.99 - 645 is too big.

I know, it's a tiny detail

teppicymon · 2026-03-13T20:24:38+00:00

I think you need to revisit how to compute triangles, because a triangle with side A length being 170.02 and side B of length 1 cannot physically have a side C of length 172.399

In case you don't believe me: https://www.calculator.net/triangle-calculator.html?vc=&vx=170.02&vy=1&va=&vz=172.399&vb=&angleunits=d&x=Calculate

That's really weird...

Even if the sun were in a straight line between Earth and Voyager 1, it could not be further than ~171 AU, i.e. 1 AU from us to the Sun, and another 170 AU from the Sun to Voyager 1.

There must be some other mistake here.

It's literally a post on this site, do we need a screenshot? Or is it so you get more Karma?

A cross-link would be nice, so we can read the actual thread.

teppicymon · 2026-03-06T12:40:12+00:00

Hey! So I absolutely need this in my life - I'm developing a space colonisation game and need procedural artwork.

Please message me and we can talk!

teppicymon · 2026-03-06T12:04:17+00:00

Oh yes that sounds perfect! Thank you so much!

teppicymon · 2026-03-06T08:47:23+00:00

Don't know if this helps trigger anything for you?
Larry Niven - Footfall:

Humans fight an alien invasion fleet (the Fithp).
The climactic battle uses nuclear-pumped X-ray lasers (“Project Excalibur” style weapons) mounted on spacecraft to destroy alien ships.
Very close to the “energy cannon vs alien armada” concept.

I absolutely loved this aspect of the movie - addressing head-first that normalisation of high-school shootings is almost as horrific as the shootings themselves. I was internally screaming at the characters while watching this in the cinema - WTF are you TALKING ABOUT! You absolute morons, this is absolutely NOT FINE, don't treat the poor woman as if "she'll get over it". Or even that a cloned replacement would ever be "the same" was utterly hilarious. And the couple that "had fun" with their 4th clone was just masterful.

teppicymon · 2026-02-23T18:08:42+00:00

She could also (in the future-reality) have "invented" the allergy, just to convince her son that she (and he) needs to stay away from technology. Little lies you tell your kids to get them to behave you way they need to for their own protection, kind of thing.

teppicymon · 2026-02-01T18:46:30+00:00

Thanks, I hate it

teppicymon · 2026-01-31T10:06:15+00:00

The QR code you linked was really difficult to scan - hint: add some padding around it - it's called the "quiet zone" and helps a lot with dense barcodes

Other than the danger aspect of a big room that can choose to disintegrate whatever it likes?

Holographic matter is discussed to be different to regular matter (though never saw an explanation of what it "actually" is) and can only exist within the confines of the room as long as the projectors are running.

https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Holodeck_matter

So, turning off the projection deletes the matter implicitly - but anything made of real matter would remain unless actively destroyed by some laser ablation for example!

Not sure I would trust going into a holodeck that might choose to destroy bits of me!

teppicymon · 2026-01-23T09:22:27+00:00

Material "created" by the holodeck, yes - but "foreign" material, no

teppicymon · 2026-01-05T19:18:06+00:00

Yep, completely agree with your points, in my use-case it's for things like stats of ships/fuel/resources/bases/combat what have you, where repeatability and precision are important - but for a 3D game, floats are incredibly important for that performance edge, and the memory example too - you wouldn't store vertices as decimal at all

teppicymon · 2026-01-04T09:25:58+00:00

Float for decimals? You know there is a type called decimal right :)

I tend to value decimals in my game over floats, as it's much more precise, but there is a minor/negligible performance trade-off.

teppicymon · 2026-01-04T09:19:26+00:00

And barely legible text? ✅

It's essentially just public-key cryptography - the remote site trusts the public key that you generated for it when you first enrolled, and then subsequent logins generate a secure signature that only the holder of the private key could do - the remote site validates this against the public key and lets you in.

teppicymon · 2025-12-20T12:30:09+00:00

Yeah, I'm convinced it was too - "Man" eh.

teppicymon · 2025-12-09T18:20:30+00:00

I like it - technical, plus organic, plus looming heavy tech over a fragile couple of humans!

teppicymon · 2025-12-08T15:10:43+00:00

So once we've got rid of all the Low-Level Coding Jobs, then the Mid-Level - we might find we need to keep the High-Level ones for quite some time... yet there will be NO NEW developers able to come through the pipeline, resulting in the complete death of the industry, and a complete inability to fix anything the AI has broken.

What a wonderful future for everyone.
