@filamentphp V6 & V7 in one day? Kids would go wild...

2026-02-25: Launch Day x2

Fun fact: if you train a 3D Gaussian splat with images where the subject keeps looking at the camera, you get this... 👀 Runnable link 👇

I made a Crash Bandicoot level in Dreams PS5 just for fun in one week. Crash puppet by PickaPlayer. Fully playable on PSVR too. Seriously, people have no idea how powerful Dreams is.

@marcoshealey The LBP bundle was the reason I got a PS3. You can bet it would certainly get some C64 sales too!

@trymedo Maybe I’ll wangle a C64 Ultimate bundle deal. Lols.

More Time Travelling C64 LBP Dev - Been super busy with day job, but managed to find a few hours since getting my lovely new C64 Ultimate at christmas, taking advantage of irrisitable Faster CPU speed have added a zippy push scroll, and started experimenting with real time drawing of my 'procedural' materials, some simple boolean type effects could make for some interesting platforming scenarios - main thing is I now have a good solution for moving big things around in backgrounds which was the missing link I was struggling to make work with 1mhz. Thanks @commodoreofcl for the juiced up C64, am loving it! #C64 #8bit #RETROGAMING

Some random fan-made Crash Bandicoot demo in Dreams that wasn't designed for VR at all, yet you put on the headset and after a second you're playing in VR using a regular controller🤗

@RealOddMenIn Amazing work! This looks so fun and is giving me Ren & Stimpy vibes too

You will like my game if you like: - Super Metroid. 🏀 - Cuphead. ☕️ - Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom. 🐷🐸🐍🦁 - SpongeBob SquarePants (the cartoon). 🧽 #animation

LittleBigPlanet, a series of games fueled by human creativity, dying out in the age of soulless AI garbage. We need you now more than ever, Sackboy.

So...QUITE the busy week at Laracasts! We launched FOUR new video series on the site. 👀 And all FOUR are FREE to watch. No strings or signup required (but it would be cool if you did). I'd love to tell you a bit about each!

Today, we're excited to announce the Cfx Marketplace: a curated digital storefront where talented FiveM/RedM creators can share and sell their work. More information on our forums: forum.cfx.re/t/5369289

Put our fanciest hat on just so we could tip it to this. Incredible work!

✨ New Flux component drop: File uploads ✨ Super simple now to add a drag and drop file uploader to your apps!

Fired up my Time Machine for first time in ages and did some retro coding on my LittleBigPlanet C64 project - added some UI and scoring for bubble collection multiplier, and got some basic sound effects working. Also had a go at making Sid Tune of a Gorrilaz tune to try and learn Goat Tracker, really hurts my head but made some progress after much pain! #c64 #littlebigplanet #Sackboy #8bit

@marcoshealey It blows my mind every time I see progress updates on this! You're a mad man! 😄

Unityでのクロスシミュレーションの実験 ついにGPUで動くようになりました（まだ基本部分ですが） やはりGPUのパワーはすごいぞ！ 正確に計測してませんがBurst+JobSystemの数十倍は速いと思う #unity3d #gamedev

@JohnnyBig0des @jeffrey_way @PovilasKorop $this->comment = (bool) !!!false !== false;

@jeffrey_way @PovilasKorop But that is sometimes the fun part of programming... Go full stupid and it still works. 🤣

The main "problem" with AI is that it will never say you're stupid. If you ask it to generate the code that is stupid, in most cases, it will obey and generate *something* stupid. Because, well, you're the boss. So, my advice is to always ask it for alternative approaches.

@jeffrey_way @PovilasKorop See, I would want it to point out that the over-engineering isn't just the redundant variables, but the creation of the redundant method "addTwoNumbers". I think @PovilasKorop's original point still stands 😂

@PovilasKorop I think that's easily solved with a clear prompt. You can make it do whatever you want.

@mmalex @SebAaltonen @andrewpprice "Are these belly buttons innies or outies?"

@SebAaltonen @andrewpprice what seb said. but you COULD interpret one way, and measure if its craters or bumps. then say 'this file looks to me like craters. is that right?' and if the user says no, flip it. (or vice versa). tldr 'craters vs bumps' more understandable than 'directx or ogl'?

Technical artists: Is there any mathematical formula that can tell whether a normal map is OpenGL or DirectX format? It's crazy that in 2025 users are still guessing.

@PovilasKorop I've not tried the Vue starter kit yet because I've used Vue so many times in the past that it feels like second nature to me... doesn't mean I won't use it when a real project comes up, but a lot of the time I'm just tinkering to keep learning so I've opted to look at the others

@PovilasKorop Maybe related to people simply trying them out? If I was primarily a Vue user in the past, I think having starter kits would make me at least try the alternatives. This is true for me - I've never used React but I've already downloaded the React starter kit twice to try it out 🙃

35 days after Laravel 12 starter kits release: which is the most popular? Here are INSTALLS (as of yesterday): - Livewire: 43 398 - React: 41 558 - Vue: 29 725 Seems like Vue becomes a clear THIRD choice. Weird, dunno why. See numbers on Packagist: packagist.org/packages/larav…
