@labocha @filicroval I appreciate that, and sorry for the condescending tone... I get passionate about splats lol.

🤖 wake up, new 4d tool! Take any normal 2D video → instantly turn it into fully explorable 3D space. You can now orbit, tilt, and view the scene from angles that literally never existed in the original footage. This is 4D Gaussian Splatting (from 4dv) and it’s next-level.

@labocha @filicroval Yes, unlike you, I'm actually aware of how it was captured. 4DV's co-founder posted on LinkedIn that the rocket was captured via camera array. They likely had limited cameras/drones, which is why that splat is quite low quality. But it's clear to me you haven't touched splats.

On Friday I finished cleaning up and optimizing the lowpoly in 3 hours - record time. I'm already off to texturing.

3DS Max is $300 a month Maya is $200 month Cinema4D is $150 a month These companies have only a fraction of the userbase that Blender has, yet they rake in BILLIONS in profit each and every year. Blender has millions of users worldwide but only made €3 million in revenue and €0 in profit last year. Only around €1.2 million came from individuals and generic small donations. The rest came from corporate sponsors and other But that wasn't enough to cover the expenses: €2.7 million staffing costs alone. The little that was left over had to be split across: - rent - travel costs - office costs - accounting costs - advisory costs - transaction fees - conference costs - other various expenses The reservation for 2025 is in the negative: €-73 k. To keep Blender alive and get better features faster, Blender needs to not only survive, but to grow a much bigger team. The only way to do that is with more funding. Everyone who have downloaded Blender should try donating at least once if you haven't already!

Here is Peter Thiel’s email to Zuck and Andreessen in Jan-2020 predicting socialism. Tl;dr too much student debt and lack of affordable housing keeps young people with negative capital for too long. And without a stake in the capitalist system, they will turn against it.

@WillFaucherVFX UE saving has always confused me… Why is it so different to other softwares? I gotta save individual windows, assets, etc.

So I "Save All" in #UE5. Everything is saved. Good. I go to close my material editor, I get a popup prompting me to save, or I'll lose all progress. I literally just saved, just let me close my windows. Drives me nuts.

@therooster @ARCRaidersGame Still no word from Embark, and less than a week from launch… Guess I’ll be missing the Astro bundle.

📡 Only one week away from launch. Soon, Speranza will welcome you all, Raiders. Those are the last moments to get your pre-order bonuses: the Bruiser Bundle & Lucky Duck Bundle! And for the Deluxe edition, the Astro Bundle awaits. Dress to kill even in a ruined world 💅

@therooster @ARCRaidersGame I was looking forward to preordering deluxe edition for the Astro Bundle… But still no regional pricing in South Africa and many other places. 🇿🇦 With this conversion I can barely afford the standard, and most of my friends aren’t gonna get it now. We’re Losing hope.

@brittlehoellow Funny things is, if they could actually make it understand UV unwrapping, it would probably actually e able to make decent models 😂

@andrewpprice Genuine question, which industries? Ive yet to see a usecase for them that isnt just either reference, or VR. I suppose they can be handy as a kind of HDRI system of sorts. Lots of cool splat stuff happening but I struggle to find a particular usecase for them

AI appeals to those looking for easy ways to make money with little effort on their part. The natural grifters. The lazy. The ones always on the prowl for a way to take advantage of situations and people. They’re fine with making a handful of fast bucks and having everything collapse — they’re used to it. They’re never built anything meaningful in which they’ve invested themselves and their dreams. The rest of us see it for what it is: a way the technocrats, corporations and governments can take our jobs, our creative products and our privacy without our say and against our will — and use them all for their profit.

@OssenJ @therooster I can still afford the game at the AAA price, but it’s going to be a tough sell to my mates now. With proper regional pricing, I would’ve gone for the Deluxe Edition - and my more casual friends would’ve picked up the Standard one.🙏 They might not get it at all now.🥲

@OssenJ @therooster Hi Ossen! Firstly, I just want to say how excited I am for ARC Raiders - you and team have done an incredible job bringing it to life. I noticed the regional pricing update covered several regions, but not South Africa and a few other key locations. 🇿🇦 Any plans to expand?🙏

I directed your questions to the ARC Raiders Community Lead @OssenJ: ❓When will Server Slam start? The time on Discord is just a placeholder. The rollout will happen gradually over time. ❓Will we be able to pre-load Server Slam? No, there won’t be any preloads.
